Dragon thing
Seems like Kai is a little embarrassed when he gets attention. Hope he gets that sorted out if he ever gets fans.
As always, if you like the comic, please consider donating on my patreon. Even one dollar goes a long way.
Donβt forget that I stream every Sunday! You are more than welcome to join in on the fun.
The stream is hold at the following hour:

Edit: FINALLY got the voting incentive figured out. Who would have thought that it doesn’t save if you haven’t typed anything in ALL the text boxes xD
So yeah, if you vote for Twin Dragons, you will now see an early design of Kai. A very early design. Thanks for voting!
NAILED IT!
ow yeah!
Kai does have -at least- one fan! Me! (Yes, you too, Kaya.) π
Haha, they do have fans, but they don’t know that :p
That can be dealt with.
Starts poking at the fourth wall, then gets a sledge hammer
Grabs shoulder and shakes head. Gives C4 charges, throws them thumbs up.
Get Cleo to buy all the TNT in the world, then get Maximum Ride to help, then get the WoF dragons to help
Maybe they can fly with out wings who knows
More like jump so high they may just as well be flying (like e.g. Hulk, minus the super strength and anger). I wish Robin would draw a comic where both twins are doing some parkour. Doesn’t need to be canon.
hmm, might be a good idea for a bonus comic of sorts.
Kai can jump high enough :p
Flap those ears, Kai! π
Chinese dragons do. Just how magic are dragons in this world?
He can “jump Hella high”
The ear-blush is a good detail. Way to pay attention to the little things. I love this comic. As always, keep up the good work! I wonder what these two little dragons and their friends will be up to next? Probably willing a basketball game. xD
Also, glad to see Benji isn’t out cold.
Thanks ^^
Yeah, Benji is resilient. He just needs a band-aid xD
Agreed, Alpha! And speaking of the details, this is my 2nd (3rd?) time looking at this strip and I just now noticed the bandage across Benji’s muzzle! π Cleo also looks quietly pleased for her new friends while still standing in the background. Nice strip, Robin.
And I like Kai’s surprised expression in the first panel. π (Surprised at the reception by his friends of something he “just does.” π )
Thank you ^^ Glad people notice the little details π
wait a minute i just realize something if kaya and kai are mythical hybrids then would there be other hybrids that are based on other mythical beasts like hydra,chimera,guivre,cockatrice,kraken etc and have traits of their respective beasts?
This question has come up a lot before. :p
Other mythicals are possible, but they are very rare. Nothing like the kraken or hydra, but a chimera-like (with mixed animals) could be possible.
well he doesn’t have dragon wings (as far as we know) so he needs to compensate
Invisi-Wings!(tm) π
*hurries to patent that*
xD
Extra jumping power to make up for wings xD
Panel. (pannel?)
One.
Face.
PANEEEEEL
ONEEEEEEEE
FACEEEEEEEEE
just that.
Don’t stare at his face too much, he’s already blushing :p
There’s a much simpler answer than “magic.” Kai’s tail has nearly as much mass as the rest of him. (Maybe more.) When he shoves it downward, then, there must be an equal and opposite force upward on the rest of him. Add that to the force from his legs…
Or he can use it as a spring, like Yooka from Yooka-Laylee, idk.
Plus, while that is most likely not “magic” (the comic, aside of existence of mythical hybrids seems pretty down to earth), that doesn’t mean Kai knows it. He’s just a teenager, not an university professor.
Yeah, no magic in the comic. It’s mostly slice of life and humor in the real world but with added animal people xD
By “knows it” I meant know what makes him jump so high.
It’s not magic, that’s true :p
He just has enough strength in his legs to jump that high. No spring-tail :p
His tail could function as added fulcrum for his thigh muscles to grip on to, thus allowing larger and better connected muscles and tendons that could exert and withstand greater forces than a human with a normal skeleton. This could possibly positively affect his jumping ability without even considering that he for some reason seems to have super-strength on top of that.
Keep springtail idea in mind though if he ever would need an extra height.
While Kai probably has greater strength than normal in his legs, I suspect hat his tail,plays a role.
I have a feeling that Bryan will want to keep an eye on Kai and other hybrids for future talent. If Bryan decides to go watch Kai’s game, Then Rex may get spotted too (considering how much effort Rex puts in, he probably hopes to go professional one day).
Of course, there is still the question about the fairness of having hybrids in sports, as some have a major advantage over ordinary humans. An advantage that even drugs couldn’t even out. And hybrids are probably to few and too varied for there to be an all hybrid league.
Rex would be delighted, he indeed wants to go professional.
No tail action though, aside from balancing and something else in the next chapter (foreshadowing ahoy xD too bad it’s in a comment)
Ok, where’s the inevitable poem? I need it now!
Heh, the curse of popularity. I’m assuming you’re referring to Welsh Rat’s shtick. I’ll give it a go in his stead.
Kai made the play of the day
To which his friends did display
Much fawning and awing
Leaving Kai hemming and hawing
And in the end Kai was simply unable to say
When asked about his play
Kai was unable to relay
He just gave a shrug
Tilted his mug
And to used “dragon” to explain it away
My ‘shtick’? Heh. Good one, btw.
shtick

a person’s special talent, interest, or area of activity.
According to google, it’s appliable
I’ve really grown fond of Kai’s shirt. :3
Thanks ^^
If you like it, stay tuned for next week… *queue suspense music*
Sorry. Bank Hols here today. Forgot.
Under adulation of all but Cleo,
even from the fan with a busted nose.
Kai came to the fore as a hero
and, to the great challenge he rose.
Leaping higher than a small building,
faster than a human standing,
more powerful than mustard by the flagon…
ALL HAIL SUPERDRAGON!!
One win mustn’t go to his head
Thankfully the green shades a little red
He mustn’t become a one-trick Pony
or he’ll be kept on the bench. Safe & lonely.
Who knew dragons were so athletic?
Any knight who ever tried fighting one? Tried being a key word here, they’re all dead.
Not true. Leif Thorn survived, for example. Granted, with severe burns on most of his body, but survived.
I guess their parents had an idea of their athletic ability :p
Kai jump good..:)
*homage to a certain samurai for those who don’t get it*
I feel like I should know this reference, but I can’t seem to remember. Care to enlighten me?

Saw all of the recent series. Awesome. Particularly the Scotsman.
White men can’t jump. Green dragons, on the other hand…
On the second panel, if you hover your cursor over Kai’s left cheek you get a text saying “blushy dragon” LOL
I tried to vote because I enjoy this comic… but I got a question and I have NO idea which is the answer. I just uploaded it

Unfortunately, the link has expired or something. I can’t see what you uploaded since it sends me straight to the homepage of tinypic. Can you describe what you see or upload it again?
How about having Kai and Benji be charmed by a pretty face.
Super Mario Odyssey has shown that Mario isn’t human. New theory: Mario is a dragon.
How about having Cleo Benji and the dragon twins watch all 4 My little Pony Equestria Girls movies.
Maybe they could make their own My little Pony Equestria Girls movie entitle it My Little Pony Equestria Girls Salvation
and have it be about Sunset Shimmer Snips Snails Starlight Glimmer and Discord making amends for their misdeeds.
Dragon thing ……….. or frog thing ? Who know how many animal characteristics can be “included” in an hybrid body ? ^_^”
And the crowd goes wild.
I wrote up a feline hybrid species for a D&D campaign world with the natural ability to jump 5x thier own body height, and the species was listed as small with an average height of 3ft. Still, 3×5=15ft jump distance…
So maybe some hybrids, posessing some animal traits also gain some of the bosus features of thier species. In the twins case, fire breathing isn’t the only hidden dragon trait.
i like kai’s shirt
