I love Kitten and Long. Love, love, love. Long is doing something that no one in Kitten's life has ever tried to do; her grandparents and her very distant cousin already knew her language, and no human she knows has attempted to learn it. (She needs to learn about Long being a dragon at some point.) I will always want more of Kitten & Long in my life. I rather delight in using this icon in threads with them, too, considering he was a black dragon. He's a big black dragon holding her carefully in his claws in spirit!

And Briar likes Long, so they should finally do a language exchange at some point. Briar would be willing to learn Chinese, and he could teach Tradertalk or Imperial. Also, he's rather intrigued by Smecker, who blatantly stole things and then picked the lock over at the jail. Briar is even more careful about stealing here now.
