[Is he seeing things, or is she getting even bigger...]
You said you have a nest. What if I tried to claim your nest as mine?
All I have on me is medicine, it's not for eating.

Do you need a nest? [ Tilts her head, clearly VERY SERIOUSLY considering this. ] I can build you one. Mine'd be too small for you.
It's not? But it smells sweet.

Thank you for the offer, but no, I don't. It was just an example. But you took that sandwich without asking if I needed it. That wasn't nice.
[Most would certainly say he looks like he needs a sandwich... He pats the pocket she was trying to steal from.]
That's probably my glucose tablets. Yes they're sweet, but they're for medical emergencies, not for snacking on.

[ ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ]
I'm sorry for stealing your sandwich.
[ what's a glucose tho ]

[Progress....??]
I accept your apology. Please keep this is mind and don't steal in the future! And don't hurt anyone either. I imagine I startled you when I grabbed you, so I apologize for that.
[He's still bleeding slightly. This is fine.]
That said... why are you, ah, nesting in a park?

[ Flicks an ear, her tail giving another swish or two. Sorry not sorry about the bleeding. ]
Won't hurt anyone if they don't grab me.
[ SWISH, her li'l spikes dragging across the ground. They, like her horns, are prettily opalescent. She's a very shiny dragon. ]
I landed here when I fell from the sky! And there's lots of squirrels and rats to hunt.

[He's about to start in on his next lecture of trying to teach her why Harming Others Is Bad, but then she mentions That...??]
You fell from the sky?
You fell from the sky?
Yep! Well! From outside the sky? Space? Good thing I've got wings.
[ Halfway unfurls them, as if in demonstration. ]

... Is this part of some make believe game you're playing? You're not really from outer space.
... Is this part of some make believe game you're playing? You're not really from outer space.
Nnnnno? No. I fell from space and landed here. Don't know why I fell, my memory's all bad and fuzzy.
[Oh dear, that sounds bad?? The fuzzy memory part, the falling from space part he's still not too sure about, especially if her memory is affected-]
Perhaps you should see a doctor... I could help you find one.

[ Something about the word "doctor" spooks her. She puffs up again, her long, expressive ears going back. ]
No!
[ No doctors. ]
I'm fine here, and I like my nest. Just need more things to eat.
No!
[ No doctors. ]

[He blinks at her in surprise.]
But you may have been injured, if your memory is affected. A doctor could help.

[ Her lip curls, showing the slightest hint of teeth. ]
No doctors.
No doctors.
[Why no doctors?? But he holds up his palms in a relenting gesture.]
Okay, okay... so you don't like doctors. But you really can't live here...
[For a variety of reasons!]
[ The teeth go away as soon as he seems to relent on the idea, though she remains somewhat ruffled. Literally ruffled; look at those poofy feathers. ]
Why not? It's nice here, there's open space and things to eat.

[She's so poofy...]
It's a public park, as in, for the public. It's not for living in! And there clearly isn't enough for you to eat, if you had to resort to stealing.
[He should consider turning this over to the police, if she is just a runaway or homeless child with an animalistic quirk in need of shelter. But considering her strange circumstances and willingness to attack to defend herself, maybe this is worth taking a more hands-on approach... and it's not like he's especially busy these days.]
I know someone who may be able to help you- or at least, he has the resources to find help for you. He may even be willing to give you a proper place to live.

[ Well ... WELL! He's not wrong about the food ... ]
There's squirrels and rats. They're tasty, even if they're small. [ Too small for her appetite. ]
[ The tip of her tail twitches, flicking slowly back and forth. And she is definitely bigger than she had been when she'd first stolen his sandwich. Or is she? Huh. ]
A proper place ... for humans? [ Wrinkles her snout. ]

[Squirrels and rats... maybe he just won't mention that part to Nezu...]
Well, yes, for humans. We're all humans here...
[Right?? And she's definitely bigger, right... or is it just the fluff effect...]

[Right?? And she's definitely bigger, right... or is it just the fluff effect...]
[ She kind of, lifts her wings and gives them a bit of a wiggle, looking from them to him. ]
I'm a dragon. [ It's said in a tone of utmost duh ] Not human.

Is that not simply your quirk?
[Look he has to make absolutely sure of this. Because if she really did fall from space... has he been talking to an alien this whole time??]

Dunno what a quirk is!
It's just me. Well! Mostly me. I'm bigger than this, actually, but it's easier to fit in [ and steal sandwiches ] when I'm small.

[Not knowing what a quirk is is certainly very unusual...!!]
You are...? How much bigger?
You are...? How much bigger?
Much, much bigger. [ How does she describe this with words ]
[ ... ]
[ Answer: She does not describe this with words! Hops up into the air, hovering around 6'3"- ] My shoulders are here. [ Zips back ... and back and back and back ...] My tail ends over here!
[ She's bigger than a draught horse. ]

[That's one way to do it, and as it is he's a little grateful she didn't show him by just making herself that size. Even so, he coughs, a bit of blood dribbling down his chin.]
That big...! Though I suppose Ryukyu can get much bigger... You are right, this size is better for fitting in.
[It certainly wouldn't do to have her wandering around at that size, claiming to be from space. What to do about this...]
Whatever you may be, a human home should still be suitable for you, if you stay closer to this size.
