[script] Macro Dragon Keeps You Safe in Their Pouch (Patreon)

Audio fades into a cityscape, which muffles and dims after some quick footsteps followed by second pair of footsteps approaching

(The micro viewer runs into an alleyway to escape the torrent of paws raining down on them from the hustle of rush hour. Polaris follows them into the alley out of concern)

“Hey, are-”“Woah woah woah, I didn’t mean to startle you, It’s ok.”“I’m not trying to hurt you, I just wanted to make sure you were alright.”“Y-yeah I uh, I saw you running through the crowd, you looked pretty distressed, you’re lucky nobody trampled over you.”“How did you end up out here anyways, I thought you micros had your own means of getting around, you know, out of danger?”

…“Oh. I see. Well, I’ll see what I can do to help you get that sorted out, but for now, let's get you out of danger.”“You don’t mind if I, uh, pick you up, yeah? I promise I’ll be gentle.”

“Great, here, I’ll just wrap my paws around you and…”

Polaris’ voice gets closer, now directly in front of the viewer

(Polaris picks up the viewer and holds them close to there face)

“There, is holding you like this ok?”“Awesome, I’ll just walk you to my apartment. You sit tight, and if you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask.”

…

The noises of the cityscape get louder(Polaris exits the alleyways and begins walking home, occasionally bumping into people and apologizing)

Polaris stops walking for a moment and begins speaking in a low voice

“Were, uh… Getting a lot of eyes on us…”“Are you getting nervous? Y-yeah, sorry, I don’t blame you, there are a lot of people…”“I think I can help maybe. I-if you're down for it, I could keep you hidden in my pouch?”“You should be hidden pretty well in there, just as long as you don’t mind tight spaces and all…”

“You're sure? Oh thank goodness, my arms were getting sore anyways.”There is a sound of fur ruffling before everything muffles

(Polaris stuff the viewer in their pouch and closes it)

“There, safe and out of sight…”

After a while the noises of the cityscape fade out and that of a less crowded street fade in(the scene changes as Polaris walks home, the viewer in their pouch having fallen asleep or dazed off)

The sound of a door opening and being shut can be heard

(Polaris opens the door and enters)

“Finally… That was bad even for a Friday.”everything unmuffles(Polaris pulls open their pouch)

“Are you faring alright in there, little thing?”

“Oh. Did I wake you, haha!”“I didn’t realize you’d fallen asleep, did you find it that comfy?”

“Well I’m glad I could provide a nice place for you to rest, you adorable little thing~”…“Is… is that an appropriate thing to say to you micros? I hope that's not demeaning or anything, I truly didn’t mean it that way, really.”

…“It's ok for you?”

…

“You… like it, when I call you that?”

“Oh. That's… adorable!”“That’s an adorable reaction from an adorable little thing!”

“Hahaha, see, look at your little blush down there in my pouch~”

“Alright, alright, I’ll stop. Here, let me help you out of there.”

…

There is the ruffling of fur

(Polaris reached down to grab the viewer, the viewer declines)“N… No?”

“What’s wrong, was it something I said?”…“You don’t… want to leave?”

“Oh, haha!”

“Very well, you cute little thing, you can stay down there for now. I guess just try to rest up some more and I’ll see what I can do about your situation tomorrow.”

“Besides, I’m sure you’ve been on your feet all day, take all the time you need, and just let me know when you want out, ok?”

everything muffles(Polaris releases their pouch and it seals shut)

“In the meantime, I’m exhausted myself, so don’t mind if I just…”

there is one soft thumping sound

(Polaris flops onto the couch)

…

everything unmuffles(Polaris pulls open their pouch)

“Hey, thanks. For letting me hide you away in my pouch back there. I mean, It was getting awkward, even for me.”“I guess it's not every day people see micros in a normal sized environment, let alone a normal sized person carrying one. Yall usually stick to your own sectors of the city, to avoid getting crushed accidently, is what I’m told.”“Though, to be honest, I almost stepped on you myself. If I hadn’t noticed you dart away from under me into that alleyway, all of this might have gone quite a bit different.”

“I’m thankful It didn’t, I wouldn't want to have stepped on such a cute little thing as you~”“Unless you're into that sorta thing, of course…”

…

“Hey, why’d you hide your face? Oh, wait, I’m sorry! I won't step on you, I-I didn’t mean it like that, really!”

“D-don’t take it the wrong way, it was just… a- you know what, nevermind, sorry, I’ll leave you to rest.”

everything muffles(Polaris releases their pouch and it seals shut)

…

“Here, I’ll pet you to show that I mean well.”

everything unmuffles(Polaris pulls open their pouch)

…

everything muffles(Polaris releases their pouch and it seals shut)

“Sorry to bother you again. Air’s not getting too stale down there, is it? I can hold the pouch open if you’d prefer that.”

“No? It’s just fine?”“Alright, so long as you’re comfortable, you adorable little thing~”

everything muffles(Polaris releases their pouch and it seals shut)

…

“What was that?”

everything unmuffles(Polaris pulls open their pouch)

“Did you say something?”

…

“Why do I have a pouch to begin with?”“Well, why not! I may not be a marsupial, but why should they get to have all the fun anyways! I mean, pouches are awesome; convenient, too!”“And at the very least they’re comfy enough to sleep in. You’ve proven that much~”

“Anything more you want to ask?”

…

“Oh stop! You're flattering me!”

“Nope, no I’m not. I’m not cute!”

“Nuh uh!”

“Alright, that's it, I’m sealing you back in, you little rascal!”

everything muffles(Polaris releases their pouch and it seals shut)

…

everything unmuffles(Polaris pulls open their pouch)

“Hey, uh…”

“I have a… strange, question…”“Would you, uh, be opposed to maybe… not, going tomorrow to get this whole thing sorted out?”“Thats… uh-

“What… What I mean is, would you be ok to… maybe let me keep you?”“That's a stupid question, sorry to ask, just uh… forget I said anything…”…

“Huh? You're… ok with that?!?”“So you’ll let me keep you to myself?”

…

“Oh my goodness, you won't regret this, I’ll make sure to take good care of you! I’ll buy tiny dishes and silverware and make tiny meals for you and bike tiny cakes for you play with you and bring you plac-”“Wait.”“It is… legal? To keep micros?”“I mean, I guess probably not, but I have friends who do it, and their little fellas seem to enjoy their company.”

“And, I mean, you said you didn’t mind, right? So I don’t see what could be wrong with caring for a you.”“But I guess I won't be taking you places… at least not out in the open.”“Fortunately for you, I think I might know place you can hide in~”“And sleep in!”

…

“Speaking of, I’m sure you’re tired of my yapping. I’ll let you rest a little, no more interruption this time, don’t worry!”“Just… don’t mind if you hear me squeal in delight every now and then at the prospect having such a little cutie all to myself~”

everything muffles(Polaris releases their pouch and it seals shut)

…

“Good night, you adorable little thing.”

“No. My adorable little thing…”
