Complete source

Complete original story: Lila wanted visitors to find her paper dragon. She wrote DRAGON over its little box. Then the lamp in the story went out. Lila heard tap, tap from the shelf and pictured the dragon tiptoeing away. Her brother Ren held a spare paper sign and said, “We could put this by the box.” The story ends before anyone checks the shelf.

Invitation

Compose a new ending, or a separate two-line verse, with one deliberate language choice.

Full sequence

Keep the supplied stopping point visible; choose a new event or setting; label it as your continuation; explain a word or sound choice.

Adult possible reasoning · keep separate from own words

The lamp going out and tap, tap can suggest a mysterious mood. Lila imagining the dragon moving is her thought, not a recorded moving dragon.

Access and limits

No public reading, movement or shared mood is compulsory. Choose a small part; no time/box/word quota, purchase, printer or returned work.

No final finding, dragon movement or shared feeling is stated. A personal response may differ with reasons.

Notice

A connected imagined contribution has an explained choice.
