Dragon Day, June 9, 2001

Dragon day has come and gone on Furcadia and I know that I milked it for all it was worth. I took over 70 (that's right, seventy) screenshots of myself, friends, and odd moments in my mighty dragon form. Now, when I'm IC I am usually serious since that's the role I need to play, but on D-Day (I know, I know...) I was nuts. I felt like I was a tourist since I was roaming around, seeing the sights in my majestic form, and snapping pictures of almost everyone and everything I saw.
The oddest moment I had was when I found Kalyanii crawling along the Imaginarium main road protesting in a loud voice against D-Day. Well, I abruptly put my foot down and blocked her path :). She started to cry and I patted her on the head as she continued to rant until she decided to bolt down the path in a mad dash to find Felorin. Well, I used my gigantic dragon feet and quickly caught up to her just as she collapsed and gave up :P. We then proceeded to talk for quite a lengthy amount of time. I must say that it was an enjoyable experience and we were both making joke after joke. Of course, such experiences do not come free as I soon found out because she suckered me into making a promotional sound file for "The Beat." (A Furcadia radio station.) When she left I proceeded to roam around some more, taking pictures of this and that and making sure to blow my rainbow flame out every now and then. I certainly saw some odd dragon formations of furres lying around. The only thing I felt that was missing was a tour guide pointing out this and that as I was happily snapping away. I certainly cannot wait until Phoenix Day (which happens to be the following Saturday; June 16th) because then I'll be able to use real FIRE!! BWAHAHAHA!! *Cough* Err, sorry about that.
