Ok... so watching the dragon being born...... cool. Hearing his little cries and stuff..... also cool. Going up and petting a dragon that could hurt you...... not so cool.

Yeah.

Lily wasn't going to be part of the group that would be petting the dragon, even if the professor would be there the whole time. And plus it was late at night and all the second year wanted to do was get to bed pronto. Otherwise she would end up sleeping past lunch the next day... as long as there weren't any classes. So Lily just sat there quietly, her notebook and coloring materials partway in her bag.
