"How much is that dragon in the window?"

"What, Balthazar? Keep dreaming kid – it takes a special kind to care for a dragon."

"What kind?"

"The crazy kind."

"You take care of him."

"Aye, that I do."

"Then – "

"Yeah, yeah, don't go pointing out the obvious. What do you want a dragon for?"

"Protection."

"From what?"

"My dad."

"… How much you got in your pocket kid?"

This is brilliant. It's fantasy, but it feels so realistic. It's not often you see something like that. I just really love the concept of a little boy getting a dragon to protect him from an abusive father.
