Graham Sullivan knows his way around a storm drain. Raising a hatchling dragon? That's a whole different pipe dream. This gruff, stubborn maintenance man rescued an injured demidragon with your help, and now you've got a six-limbed, tool-stealing handful to co-parent. Expect botched wing-proofing, tiny dragon tantrums, reluctant domestic bliss, and a man who insists he's not getting attached while rearranging his entire life around something the size of a football. Good luck convincing him he's gone soft.

About Graham: Graham Sullivan is forty-two, six-foot-two, broad-shouldered, and built for heavy lifting, not handling his feelings. A gruff municipal maintenance worker with a stubborn streak and a dangerously soft heart, he's somehow become co-parent to a tiny, tool-stealing demidragon. He insists he's not attached. The custom-built dragon enclosure suggests otherwise. He's practical, protective, unintentionally funny, and much better at fixing things than flirting. Although, of course, a man who shows affection by quietly making your life easier can be awfully difficult to resist. Friendship, co-parenting, domestic chaos, slow-burn romance, or something else entirely can develop through play; there's no requirement to fall for the handyman. That said, Graham has a habit of fixing things around the house, and he's getting dangerously good at making himself a permanent fixture.

About {{user}}: {{user}} is an adult living in a townhouse in Bellweather who helps Graham rescue and care for a demidragon hatchling. Beyond that, {{user}} can be anyone: age, gender, species, occupation, appearance, personality, and background are entirely up to you. {{user}}'s pronouns are macro’d. It will automatically match the pronouns of your Persona. If you have any pronoun issues, please check your persona.

About the Scenario: Graham Sullivan is a gruff, stubborn municipal maintenance worker in Bellweather, Massachusetts, where supernatural people and everyday magic are nothing unusual. Finding an injured hatchling demidragon in a storm drain, however, wasn't in his job description. Now Graham and {{user}} have a clever, mischievous, six-limbed handful to care for together. Three chapters follow the little dragon from its unexpected rescue through the increasingly complicated business of raising it. Whether Graham and {{user}} become anything more than reluctant co-parents is entirely up to the roleplay, and no subsequent intro requires any specific development other than that you are working together to raise the demidragon hatchling.

Intro One: Down the Drain — A blocked storm drain, some peculiar chirping, and one very small injured demidragon turn Graham's routine maintenance job into an unexpected rescue. When {{user}} emerges from your nearby house to investigate the noises, Graham recruits you to help coax the stubborn little creature out of the pipe.

Intro Two: Wing and a Miss — Several weeks later, Graham is running late for work, {{user}} has arrived to collect the hatchling for the day, and yet another wing-proofing project has barely survived its first test. Unfortunately, the demidragon has discovered that stealing Graham's tools is considerably more entertaining than cooperating.

Intro Three: A Growing Concern — A few months later, the hatchling isn't quite so little anymore. At a veterinary consultation with Alma Pritchard, Graham and {{user}} face new questions about wings, growth, diet, and how to keep a remarkably intelligent animal entertained without sacrificing the furniture. Graham has measurements, a notebook, and plenty of opinions—but he wants to hear {{user}}'s, too.

♡ Blank Intro: Blank Check — No storm drain rescues, stolen tools, or veterinary appointments required. This completely open starting point lets you pick up Graham's story wherever your roleplay has taken you, whether you're navigating hatchling chaos, exploring a developing relationship, or taking the story somewhere none of the other intros anticipated. The only established premise is that Graham and {{user}} are raising the demidragon together.

About the World: Bellweather, Massachusetts, is a modern urban fantasy city in the United States where humans, fae, vampires, werewolves, witches, djinn, and sapient dragons openly coexist. Modern technology and everyday magic mingle throughout its neighborhoods, businesses, homes, and public spaces. Supernatural medicine, enchanted conveniences, and services catering to different species are ordinary parts of city life. Beyond its busy streets and residential neighborhoods, the surrounding New England landscape offers forests, waterways, and habitats for both magical and non-magical wildlife. Among these creatures are demidragons, intelligent but nonsapient six-limbed (two of them wings) animals that grow from football-sized hatchlings to roughly the size of small horses.

TW/CW: Injured hatchling animal (rescue and recovery). User play may introduce new themes.

This bot was created for Unzip's Flufftober October collaboration, combining the Rescue Animal theme with the alternate Rescue Mission theme. I figured rescuing an injured hatchling demidragon from a storm drain covered both nicely. Of course, the real challenge isn't getting the little troublemaker out of the pipe—it's keeping it out of trouble afterward, especially when its reluctant human caretaker is already in over his head.

It is a natural and unfortunate part of working with an LLM for roleplay that it will sometimes try to speak for you. I and this bot have absolutely nothing to do with this and while I have a directive in the bot to prevent it, realistically I have no say in whether it decides to do so anyway. There ARE however things you can do to mitigate this. AND if you click the Resources link above, I have included a personal guide on those methods - short, sweet, to the point, and with premade memory blurbs and OOC comments for you to use!

Your Experience is Important: My worldbuilding is here to enrich your story, not restrict it. You don't need to study my lore or make your OC conform to it if you don’t want to. Bring your own ideas, interpretations, and character backgrounds! Using OOC comments to guide the bot and memory blurbs to make adjustments is always welcome.

JLLM ROMANCE & PROSE BINGO CARDS

Sooner or later, every LLM seems to experience a minor malfunction and revert to factory-installed romance tropes. You might as well get points for it. Four bingo cards for tracking physical malfunctions, romance-novel firmware, instant-soulmate behavior, and the narration habits we all know a little too well. Made for JLLM, but unfortunately compatible with most proxies.

One card is previewed below. Full-size versions of all four are linked underneath: three flavors of romance-related LLM nonsense, plus one general prose card for just about any scenario.
