Calypto, for @Dorano1 's Albertine
Calypto
Pronouns: She/her
Profession: Bard/adventurer/errand-runner/odd-jobber/jack-of-all-trades.
Calypto is a dark-colored obelisk with an laughing, friendly, lackadaisical attitude, and an enormous number of odds and ends and little jangly things attached to her. Her mane has a shaggy, raggedy look where she's clearly clipped bits unevenly, presumably to get particularly bad tangles/mess out. Her primary profession is ostensibly "bard," which means she carries around a battered lute with a bunch of little charms attached to it and plays and sings excellently. You can often hear her coming for some ways down the road as she sings traveling-songs to pass the time as she walks or flies. She's also very buff, charming, and effortlessly attractive in a disheveled sort of way, which gets her a long way in her various capers.
Calypto is the kind of person who cannot mind her own business or stay focused for the life of her, and is also a sucker for collectibles and trophies and little prizes. As a result, she has a tremendously interesting life and a thousand stories and gets a lot done, but has some trouble accomplishing her actual goals. If you ask her to go and get some bread from the bakery, she'll be gone three times as long as you expected, and instead of a loaf of bread she'll come back with mud on her shirt, flowers, and an apple pie.
What happened to the bread? Well, she wasn't able to buy the bread because she used the money to buy the flowers from the kid who was hawking them on the side of the road. Why are you covered in mud? She helped a dragon on the road get her wagon unstuck from a ditch. Where did she get the apple pie? She traded a teapot for it. Where did she get the teapot? From the dragon whose wagon got stuck, she was a potter and was very upset because she was on her way to market when her wagon went off the road and some of her pottery smashed and she couldn't get back onto the road because the wagon was too heavy. She was very grateful for Calypto's help. Who wanted the teapot? Well, when Calypto was on her way home after helping the wagon out, a dragon on their way home from the bakery exclaimed over the teapot, and said he'd always wanted one like this but couldn't afford to pay what it was worth, so she offered to trade him the teapot for the apple pie he was holding. And now here she is with the apple pie! What do you mean "but we need the bread for dinner"? We have apple pie now!
Calypto likely meets Albertine when she comes across him while traveling. She absolutely does not recognize he's a prince, or does and doesn't care. Either way, she promptly enmeshes him into one of her absurd side quests - collecting rare plants to trade to a dragon in exchange for one of her hens which another dragon wants for their flock in exchange for relinquishing a family recipe which the innkeeper desperately covets and who will in exchange let Calypto perform at dinner all week and keep all the tips or something. It turns out things go much more efficiently when Albertine is around to smooth things over and keep Calypto on track, although much more chaotically than Albertine is probably anticipating.
Calypto likes Albertine tremendously and ends up tagging along when he has to go home or go on to the next thing, amiably teasing him and getting him embroiled in various fits of chaos and intrigue or teaching him horrible saucy songs. She gets the sense he's kind of tense and uptight and anxious, so she takes it as her solemn duty to tease him and make him laugh and loosen up. "Everything turns out all right in the end," is her motto, whatever the journey is to get there. She also cheerfully and shamelessly propositions him once that seems like a thing that might be on the table, before Albertine can get too in his own head about it. They balance each other well, with Calypto's chaotic and disorganized enthusiasm smoothed out by Albertine's manners and direction in life, and Albertine's tendency towards dormancy and stillness livened up by Calypto's zest for life.

Oh, she's FANTASTIC I love her. They will be perfect and the clan will never recover. I must acquire a dragon for her immediately.

[LIST]
[*][b]What is your dragon's name and pronouns?[/b] Whalefall, she/her or it/its
[*][b]What are your dragon's gender preferences for a spouse?[/b] None (see player preferences)
[*][b]What is your dragon's role in their clan? (Job/position)[/b] Whalefall is mostly independent, bowing to no government and subsisting on what she hunts and scavenges near the ocean floor outside Sornieth. She will occasionally have mutualistic relationships with schools of deep sea Maren, trading her kills and finds for theirs to diversify her diet a bit. (She will eventually be loosely allied with Clan Sanctuary but will largely remain an independent hunter, simply altering her migration routes to stay nearer to the outer coast of the Expanse more often, acting as more of a trade partner and occasional battle ally or source of information than a proper clan member.)
[*][b]What is your dragon's romantic history?[/b] None!
[*][b]What do they want out of a partner?[/b] She has literally never thought of it before (however were she to do so, she would want someone who could equal her in strength and speed beneath the waves).
[*][b]What is their biggest insecurity?[/b] Extremely uncomfortable around ""civilized"" dragons, it has never known how to behave in polite society and is extremely uncomfortable with the idea of being expected to do so.
[*][b]What is the number one thing missing from their life?[/b] Companionship. Due to the above, there's not a whole lot of folks who want to spend time with her. She will adamantly deny any accusations of loneliness, but such denials are in fact a lie.
[*][b]What are your dragon's biggest strengths?[/b] Its strength :V In all seriousness the fact that she's a cunning, physically powerful oceanic predator is the major one. She is quick and strong and vicious.

I am definitely not a haver of a lot of big feral monster guys on this webbed site and she seemed like a good opportunity to change that. It's a big heckin fish monster what's not to love?
[*][b]Do YOU have any preferences for what the dragon spouse should be?[/b] This is in fact my dastardly plan to get you to lore [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/64045909]This Creature[/url] for me. Visuals are gonna be the scry in bio, and I do want to use falc's eyetype lore for them (they're goat), but aside from that go ham, they're gonna stay fpose but that does not matter to me one whit wrt actual gender.

hello to my husband. i have a challenge for you. give these two personalities and a Story, if you would be so kind
doing the non-standard format you requested
I got these two in the same batch of fodder, right next to each other. It was meant to be.
dragon one: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/98445836]sun,[/url] she/her. i know she is kind of small as imperials go and that probably matters to her. she was for some reason meant to go be a warrior and has not done that because she met moon.
dragon two: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/98446660]moon,[/url] she/her. I know she is actually kind of large as skydancers go and that probably matters to her. I don't know why she was sent to be a warrior, but she's probably not doing that?
I don't know if it would be more interesting to give them very traditional sun/moon associations or if it would be more interesting to swap them, have moon be some kind of fighter while sun prefers peace. You know this genre best.
I know these two are most likely fated to be together by some unknown force (perhaps a god or spirit, maybe... or just nebulous fate) and whatever tasks and paths were assigned to them prior (without either of their consent), they have now pivoted to things they are doing together. I have no idea what those things are.

And I think drabble was the wrong term. Better to call it a dialogue? Because it is. Only Dialogue. The first part was based on the last section of your lore prompt, and then waiting for the CR I just kinda. Wrote a Part 2. I put them both in his Bio for now if you'd still like to read; please bear with my excessive ellipses and italics.
