When I saw your post where the planets are dragons and Earth steals Astrodude’s boot. ¿¿¿solardragons???
a funny idea popped into my head! If Earth wanted to give Astrodude a ride, he’d probably drop him mid-air first and then catch him just as a joke lol.
Also, do you think the dragons would actually let Astrodude ride them???
Yes, it's very similar to what Earth would do! Hahah
Mars and Mercury would agree. Mercury is a pretty fast guy, Mars is more resilient. Their flight will be quite comfortable. They would both make excellent companions in Astrodude's (or Fantasydude's) constant wanderings.
Earth is a wonderful flier among the Rockies as well as moderately curious and obsessed with humans. He’ll be happy to give someone a ride, but there’s always a good chance he’ll want to show off his skills right during the flight. It’s worth preparing for this.
Venus - absolutely not. This guy has a strong character and he doesn’t consider himself ”a riding pony” at all. Besides he won't let everyone near him. Even if Dude manages to persuade him somehow, it's worth considering that Venus’s scales are very prickly and hard — he can't do it without a saddle. The second goal of life will be to convince him to put on a “stupid“ saddle.
But with the Giants everything is much more complicated. They're huge and have a different texture of scales. It's practically impossible for a person to stay on them without special equipment. Giants respect human beings; of course, they would agree with a noticeable concern (especially Jupiter and Saturn).
For such a flight the researcher would have to chain himself to the saddle. Even with all that flying them would be epic. However it would be problematic to give any instructions. I think small moon-dragons would be helpful. Some kind of mini-assistants. He definitely won’t forget such a flight anytime soon.
Unless Dude should remind Neptune of his presence more often — to prevent Neptune's intention to suddenly dive into some random lake during the flight.
Btw, the largest moon-dragons are more suitable candidates for riding such as Ganymede, Europa, etc. They're mobile and not that big. Perhaps in the future people will be able to gain their trust.
And about Sun... Well, star-dragons live near volcanoes and their scales are very hot. I think this attempt would have ended about the same way as TSS vs Rogues arc.
