While getting dressed I find myself pondering a video game where you are a shoulder dragon with shoulder dragon sized problems. Sure, the wizard whose shoulder you ride on has some complex world-in-peril narrative to deal with, and every now and then she makes you do some weird mission that can only be accomplished by a tiny dragon, but mostly you're concerned with lazing around the place while she does research, stealing cookies from the cabinet, chasing the local rats and birds, accumulating a shoulder dragon sized hoard of shiny things, and so on.

It would be the most relaxing thing ever.

@anthracite Your wizard is a human and smart-but-dopey in that human way. "I can save the world! Help me find my glasses?" Fetch quests and rat hunting speed up or slow down lines of magical research so you can steer your wizard by interfering or helping with various completion tasks.
