“What is it?” Thorax asked.
“Thorax, YOU could have our kid!”

“You could turn into a female dragon and carry the egg for us!”
AJ said, “That makes sense!”
Thorax turned redder and started stammering. “i-i-I don’t know about this, guys, it doesn’t — I mean, I think — what I’m trying to say is —”
Ember looked at him teasingly. “Don’t you wanna help your friend? Or are you just too afraid that you won’t be able to handle it?”
“n-n-n-No, it’s just — I mean, I —”
Thorax stopped speaking when he saw Spike, who was making the saddest puppy eyes he’d ever seen. “Please, Thorax?” he whimpered.

“You all owe me BIG TIME.” he (or is that ‘she’?) said, blushing.
“Okay… Therma!” Ember snickered at the nickname she’d just come up with.
The newly renamed Therma blushed even harder.

I’ve gotten a lot better at drawing, can’t you tell?
