- roman hoards shiny stuff
- obviously
- but it’s like unorthodox shiny stuff for a dragon
- like this really smooth and shiny rock from a river bed
- a broken CD he found
- a piece of stained glass that hits the light just right
- it’s just
- anything shiny he can get his claws on
- he’s very protective about his hoard and doesn’t like anyone near it
- except for his friend patton since patton doesn’t like shiny stuff the way he does
- roman has no idea why though shiny things are amazing
- sometimes little kids will come to his cave and while he’s not crazy about it, he loves showing off everything he’s collected since they’re such good listeners
- a lot of the kids return regularly to see what he’s gotten since they last came
- patton hoards clothes
- clearly he can’t fit them
- but he likes the way they look
- and when a wayward human gets lost he can give them something to wear
- he hoards less for himself and more for the humans that mysteriously find his cave
- (his cave isn’t very well hidden and most everyone knows he’s a really nice dragon)
- one time someone came to his cave and offered to make him a quilt from all the clothes he felt he wouldn’t like individually
- it’s a thank you from one of the people he saved
- he gets so excited he can’t stop telling his friends roman and logan about it even when it’s finished
- (it takes a while but he’s patient)
- logan hoards books
- clearly
- but he’s much more organized than roman or patton
- it’s like a library the way the books are stacked around his cave
- he has a special place for textbooks
- many many college students come to his cave hearing he has book, just looking for something to help them out
- he loans them any book they might need for their course
- free of charge, though he memorizes the names and faces of those he lent them to
- the students are so grateful (anyone in college gets this), they come back and make him an actual bookshelf and it’s one he can use
- from then on it’s not just college students but anyone looking for a good book and place to read
- many times his cave will get crowded so he goes to his friend virgil’s for some quiet
- Virgil hoards pictures/painting
- he knows it’s kinda weird
- but hear him out what about the people that want them back
- the mountains were cold and they could very easily get damaged
- so he saves them from the weather, keeps them safe deep in his cave
- anyone who comes by is usually sent from patton or logan
- they both knew how he kept them
- although any human who came by his cave never dared to enter
- it could have been because his cave was underground or it could have been how the only thing they could see in the dark were his dark purple eyes
- either way no one dared come in
- for the most part he didn’t mind since patton could come get the pictures/painting
- there was, weirdly, one person who didn’t mind coming into his cave
- a weird human named remy found his cave and decided that it could be a good place to nap
- (virgil was too baffled to wake him up or even ask what he was doing)
- from there remy took it upon himself to get the pictures/paintings distributed to anyone who came by and slowly the two became friends
There’s probably gonna be more where this came from but this is what i have for now because dragons are my fave and this au has my heart already
AND ROMAN ENJOYING FAIRY TALES FROM THE BOOKS LOGAN HOARDS, PATTON BEING READ TO BY WAYWARD HUMANS ON THEIR WAY TO RETURN A CHILDREN’S BOOK THEY BORROWED, PATTON ENJOYING BEING READ TO EVEN WHEN HE’S DOWN HIS EYES JUST LIGHTING UP WITH HAPPINESS HOLY SHIT.
