I wish I had done this sooner for FWA attendees like   ceralor

Believe it or not, before Scaleworx, before FA, and before Second Life. This squeaky dragon via FurryMUCK was pretty much the one who started me down this balloon dragon spiral though I gotta say, I myself get a lot more hugs and snugs when I'm a balloon dragon at Scaleworx. It can't be a coincidence.
