dream dragon

I dreamed the dwarves from the Lord of the Rings movies met up with a team of mining dwarves who were working with a small, young dragon. They couldn't really communicate with him except on the level you could with a pet - like a noise that means "I need help," one that means "I want something," one that means "you're my buddy, yes you are." But Thorin had an immediate telepathic connection with him. And this dragon was ASTONISHED to learn that dwarves were sapient and it was possible to communicate with them.

Why is this so oddly charming!? Considering what the dragons are like in canon, it should be disturbing, but I just keep picturing the little dragon in a harness pulling mine carts because wow, it turns out that these creatures actually have complex thought which includes generations of experience about how/where to find the BEST gold, and they are willing to let you sleep on it if you help them dig it up!

Maybe the dragon views them the way we view truffle-hunting pigs.

Dragon: They can TALK?! Horrifying.

Dwarf Who He's Been Calling "Cuddly": ...the veins in Shaft 53 are looking really promising, and we're developing plans to sink a new shaft about half a mile southeast of it where there's indicators of a larger lode...

Dragon: Okay, they can talk and they can FIND GOLD from up to half a mile away!!1! This is worth getting over the horror for.
