TDGA) Making A New Den... Home Part 1 (Unedited) (Patreon)

“To think I could actually talk in this form, and my voice is even cute!” This was a big plus for me. This way, if I came upon any people, I could talk to like fluffy beast kins or fluffy beast kins. Fluff. I wonder if this world has fluffy people. If they do… Heh Heh… *Slurp* Ahem… Anyway, if I can talk to people, maybe I can get them not to attack me right away. I mean, if I say: “I am not a bad dragon-lizard thing!” Maybe they will listen?

Well, I guess it all depends on how things work out. Even if I could talk to people, I wouldn’t even remember who they were. But more than likely, they will attack me. They will all scream: “Ah! Cute dragon-lizard thing!” 

But really, what was I supposed to do? I looked around and saw nothing of much interest. Other than my surroundings being right out of a fantasy book, I saw nothing that would make for a good home. Why a home, some may ask. Well, to be frank, I am a complete shut-in. Right now, I have no idea where I am. I only know I am no longer human. So running out of the forest that I am in towards some unknown land is just asking to be killed or enslaved. Some bearded, burly man might have a cute dragon-lizard fetish for all I know. I mean, middle-aged men liked taking pictures of me in the strange cosplay that showed too much of my legs and even paid to do so. So I will not count out any cute dragon-lizard fetish guys. 

“First, I need shelter. Then I will make a bed… then I will sleep. Forever….” I mumbled, but now that I think about it, my words sounded kind of scary. Who would want to sleep forever!? That is basically being dead, if not dead! 

At any rate, I began exploring my surroundings. I did not dare stray too far from my current position. For all I know, this could be some kind of safety zone for cute dragon lizard things. I don’t want to leave all of a sudden and get my head bitten off before I could even have fun in this new life. Of course, my idea of fun would be slouching down in a computer chair. Although, I think that is not something I will get the luxury of doing for a while.

I have to admit the idea of streaming in this form is quite enticing. I mean, not even pretty looks would get more viewers than a dragon lizard thing that can talk. I would probably be asked to go on many shows as well. Or some scientific lab someplace where they would cut me open to see how I tick. 

This thought made me shiver in fear. “Maybe I shouldn’t talk to people…. Mmm, yes, I will not talk to a single soul until I know for a fact that talking dragon lizard things do not get experimented on.”

One strange thought that entered my mind as I looked around the pond was how used to walking around on four legs I was. I mean, I could walk on two as well, which I have tried, but my tail was dragging on the ground. This did not feel too comfortable for me. I mean, first, all the rocks were scrapping my tail, and second, my beautiful tail was being scraped by rocks! Not for me! I mean, I could hold my tail up, but that threw me off balance while on two legs, so I gave up. 

“Hmmm? What’s this?” I spotted something interesting about this waterfall. It was hard to see from afar, but when you got closer, there was a dark spot visible through the water, which could only mean one thing! A cave! A place where I can slack off. I mean a place I can slack off. Wait, that was the same thing. Aw well. Anyway, I had nothing better to do, so I would investigate that place first.

I made my way around to the cliff face that rose high up into the cloud bank over head. I had no idea how high up I was or how close to sea level I was, but the cloud bank was very thick. I could not see past it at all, yet light still rained down from above, illuminating the area around me. I guess the colorful plants that grew around the pond also helped as well. 

I could see an opening in the cliff face behind the waterfall, which I slowly edged closer to. I had to dig my claws into the rocks. I was quite surprised by my claw strength. I guess having a dragon lizard thing body had its bonuses. With this, I was able to use the slippery rocks to get to where I needed to go…. Or so I thought…. Well, while I did make it to the cave entrance, I immediately ran into an enemy after I accidentally slipped and fell. 

And said enemy was stuck in a place I really did not want an enemy to be stuck in…. Namely, the most sensitive part of all beings….. The anus…“Do all dragon lizard things have to worry about rocks!?”

I was currently on my back, curled up, digging a certain rock out of a certain area. It was a cruel world. A very cruel world. Who would have known that the enemy of all dragon lizard things was the rocks under my very feet? “There, got it!” I let out a sigh of relief. I very long sigh as I lay there on my back. Only after a few minutes did I finally roll over to take a look at the cave.
