Hatchworth Dragon

It seems the reception being held in honor of the refurbishment of a second Steam Dragon will have to be held without sandwiches, unless someone can convince Hatchworth dragon to back off. It's Hatchy's fault... he wanted to protect the sandwiches. You see Walter Girl Carolina is so done...

Since the discovery of a group of steam-powered robotic dragons bearing a close resemblance to Col. Peter A. Walter's automatons, abandoned in a castle in Snornia, only two of the beasts have been made fully operational... the huge but timid The Spine dragon, and the small but sassy Hatchworth dragon. A celebration was impossible for the first dragon due to his timidity, Peter VI's accident, and Walter Robotics Expo. It was supposed to be such a nice affair, with all the nice little finger foods... nice enough to celebrate both dragons, though the first still won't leave his Lair of Wires back at Castle Spot where he was discovered.

Restoration of the Rabbit dragon has proven complicated... seems his inventor put a great deal of work into making him as much like his biped counterpart as possible and years abandoned in a damp castle didn't agree with him... While he can be powered on, he tends to hiss and back away from humans and has to be deactivated quickly to avoid damaging himself. The fleet of volunteer students working on him have applied to Peter VI for someone expert in dealing with robots, especially Rabbit, to come assist.

Meanwhile, Hatchworth dragon won't let Carolina near the sammich table. And she was really counting on getting a few of those nice cucumber sammiches...
