[It looks like some of the tools have been knocked over.

She will also hear a strange noise while something scurries into the shadows behind some seed bags.]

[trifocal]

[ ...?

maybe an animal got inside? she comes over a little closer... and starts to tug on one of the seed bags. slowly dragging it out... ]

[smokeandglasses]

[An animal did indeed get inside!

It's a tiny black dragon with bright red eyes, about the size of a small cat, and as she moves the bag it scurries up one of the support beams in the greenhouse.]

[trifocal]

Th, that can't be... a dragon?

[ ?????? ]

I must be seeing things... A dragon would never be so small.

[ watches it go... ]

[smokeandglasses]

[It keeps climbing but eventually loses its grip and falls. Better catch it!]

[trifocal]

[ !!

she reaches out to catch it! ]

[smokeandglasses]

[It is caught!

Its scales actually feel very smooth, it's kind of like holding a baby snake. Except this snake has legs.

The little dragon yelps in surprise at her and then grabs onto her arm. Looks like it's not moving anytime soon.]

[trifocal]

Ah...!

[ she holds very still, so she doesn't end up getting clawed.

... ]

Phew. Well, I suppose we can get you out of here...

[smokeandglasses]

[It seems to have the sense to not claw her too much at least. But it's making sounds and trying to re-orient so it can look up at her.]

[trifocal]

[ smiles down at it! ]

Hello, little one. Did you come looking for something to eat?
