But I'm pretty dure I wouldn't say yes to situations where I'd probably be maimed or worse,die :P But I have a good aim :) I might hide somewhere the dragon can't find me and throw stones at it? :P Great fun post Laura :)Uma @Books.Bags.Burgershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10112898986107572612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913730726494465142.post-80741196190851898762017-04-21T10:13:13.619-07:002017-04-21T10:13:13.619-07:00Same!!

I also have no clue how to use a weapon and my throw is off, so RIP to me.

I could never be a YA protagonist because my bravery is horrid and while I do know how to work a few weapons, I'd sooner run away from anything that use those weapons and like you, I'm completely human.

This was a fun post. I totally get where you're coming from. While I get that people supposedly become extraordinary when confronted with danger it would be nice to see more of the "flight" response.
