Part 569: Robin B

I've assembled an extensive dossier on prospective wyvern mates, Cherche. ...I can't believe I just said that.

Oh, thank you! This is so exciting! Let's see what you have.

Here you go.

Ah, you've included oil portraits of all the wyverns! What a nice touch. Hmm...no. ...No. ...Nope. ...Ugh, not a chance. ...No. ...Aaand, no. Um, Robin? Did you know that these are all female wyverns?

Er, right. Is that a problem?

Minerva is a girl. ...Who likes boys.

He is? ...I m-mean, she is?!

Yes, SHE is! ...It's perfectly obvious if you just bother to look.

(Why in blazes would I ever be looking at-)

I'm sorry? I didn't quite catch that.

J-just scolding myself for making such an obvious blunder! Ha ha! ...Ha. Well, I guess I'll be starting over then.

You can probably tell just by looking at her, but Minerva is VERY picky. So do make sure that you bring her only the most handsome candidates.

...You do realize that I have no concept of what makes a wyvern handsome, right?

The shape and length of his horns, the shine of his scales, and the length of his wings. Also consider overall musculature, roar volume, and fire-breath heat. ...Oh, and if he happens to be rich, so much the better.

Oh, you have GOT to be joking!
