Well, Mark did say we will (as in should?) have a field day, so...<br>
<br>
A dragon and a duck! Of course, in real fantasy the duck wouldn't last long hanging out with a dragon.<br>
<br>
BTW, male ducks (or male anything) aren't "cute." They're handsome,
suave, studly. Maybe (just maybe) they can be chic. Additionally,
"dapper" does kind of imply masculine. I've never heard it used as a
description of a woman, only men, and only then when in formal attire.<br>
<br>
So a chic duck and a studly dragon. Who wants to do the first comp?<br>
