Sigh. This annoying LINEUP outside my DUGOUT is endless. Not just townsfolk paying the fee, but kings wanting a loan, silversmiths wanting to STRIKE their hammers on another DIAMOND or piece of gold from me. From me! Long ago they would have killed a dragon like me but now? Now pesky people parade in my face. A young man gives me a sales PITCH. He tells me, "Hello, I am very pleased to see you are just as beautiful as ever..." "Skip the WINDUP. What do you want?" I growl. "Well my king is holding a BALL for my young daughter, and I was wondering if you could lend a gold PLATE. We only have 12 and need 13 to be precise. I want to invite the wise women and..." I shut him up by throwing him the plate. I want to hurry this up so that I can go to sleep. These humans are so annoying. I try not to SLUMP- a dragon must always have good posture- and listen to the next person on how he made an ERROR and wants a loan for the money he gambled away. I burn him to a crisp. Next, it's a princess who doesn't want to marry another tyrant. Hmmm. Yes, she can stay with me. I never BALK, even if the fiance is a maniac. Besides, she would be friends with all the other maidens who stay with me. All these men think they will SCORE a CATCH and don't think about the poor girls. Utterly annoying. A little mole MOUND under my kingdom, they are as gross as BATTER in a cake cooked wrong. But I am made of fire.
