yoongi is sitting against the dragon’s side, half hidden beneath her wing, reading a book. pausing behind a tree, jeongguk takes the time to admire the sight. it’s so… domestic. just a boy and his dragon enjoying the afternoon sun. for a moment, jeongguk sees what he could have, too.
but then he remembers what dragons have done to his family. to his community. it’ll take more than just this to undo the years of anger that have hardened his heart.
(or: for twenty years, jeongguk has hated and feared dragons, believing them to be monsters worthy of cruel fates. and then he meets someone who might just be able to change his mind—and his heart along with it.)
