Sketch: How can you tell a girl dragon from a boy dragon?

Kat Johnston Sketch: This dragon is a girl. You can tell by the flowers and pretty pretty bow on her head.\

A nice pretty bow and some flowers are probably a decent way to tell that a dragon is a girl. Well… I don’t know completely. Surely there is such a thing as a drag-dragon, but that just sounds a little wrong, you know? Perhaps they have to come up with a different term for it, just so that it doesn’t look like that. Drag-dragon… hmm…

So yes, anyhow, skipped the weekend for the production of online content, but back to it again today! The weekend was fun of fun and frivolity, with a decent amount of nikko being used on bodies. I have good friends: they are either smart enough or stupid enough to let me draw all over them with permanent marker… I don’t envy them when it comes to having to wash it off the next day.

Lets see… there was one friend with flowers and vines trailing here and there, another with a full back covered in a cobra with some tribal designs melding into tech, and another friend requesting a dragon. There was no-one wanting bunnies at all! How odd, huh? Anyhow, I decided on Sunday morning (I was up bright and early enjoying breakfast then grocery shopping at the barracks) that I needed markers which weren’t so… uhhhh… thick. Nikkos (the big ones) are all good and all, but when they’ve been used enough, there’s just no way to get a nice fine line. I’m now outfitted with a whole baggie full of sharpies with not only black, but colours too! Ohhh, the next person who lets me draw on them is going to have some funnnnn!

    Does it matter if the dragon is a boy or girl?

    I mean, unless you are curious about some inter-species ‘interaction’.

    That means sex by the way.

    Now I’m curious.

    I don’t want to get it wrong though, I don’t think they’d stop at a kick to the nuts.

    Maybe it’s like dwarves and they spend years delicately making genteel enquiries to find out if the other dragon is a male or female.

    Also, I don’t bother trying to wash stuff of. I just wear long sleeved shirts until it next rains :)

    Hmmm… I think that there are some decent reasons as to why you might want to know if a dragon is a male or a female. Using non-gendered pronouns can get a little tiresome after a while. And if someone left a baby dragon on your doorstep, it might be a little less awkward later when you’ve just worked out that you should have called it Robert instead of Roberta.
