Ouros once again had an inspiring conversation with me. Two of the things I've said - we're implanting lapdragons with RFID chips by default, and one of the things we'll do for our Reindeer Edition lapdragons is help them find a keeper so they can keep being lapdragons after the winter's over - came together in that conversation with a third point of fact, that many mobile phones now come with NFC - which is just one particularly advanced form of RFID - and an idea was born.
A brass bell on the collar means a dragon is on loan to us for the season, and is going home after we finish our charity drive, but those wearing silver bells are up for adoption. All participants' chips have been flashed with a special firmware for the event; given that there's a good chance some of you will take a shine to one of our volunteers, you can scan their chip for either information on staying in touch later, or in the case of a silver bell, on how to take them home with you when their period of voluntary service is complete.
Remember, you can always drop in after hours to say 'hi' and hang out if you don't have time to introduce yourself during the commute - in fact, we encourage you to come by for whatever sort of interactions you're feeling like, or to find a pet. But do hurry - if you dally, you may find silver replaced by brass!
This one is. The ones in the novel won't be quite so voluntary, because I'm trying to fifty shades this shit. :D
Well, I spent the last seven years figuring out how this can work, and now I'm trying to figure out how it all goes to hell. My sticking point is now how I pull it out of the fire, and … you might actually be a big help figuring that last part out. Want to chat about it sometime? :3

Sure, also, Soem of these dragons will react quite violently when the control over them is broken...I can jsut imagine a few extra "harmless saliva" glands turning out to contain poison...or even acid, since many neuro toxins actually function as a corrosive agent on nerve cells. IF you want firebreath...well if they can generate a spark they can jsut spit the poison like a napalm fireball...

What do you mean "when the control over them is broken"? It's not like this is a magic spell that just ends instantaneously when you wave a wand. And anyway, this is from two years ago when they were behaving honorably, so he's actually a real volunteer.
Alas, I fear the poisonous saliva isn't going to work - there's too much reporting for people to order the DNA for pathogens or toxins without detection. Besides, it's not like spitting fire isn't impressive enough, and the burning mixture would destroy or denature most of the toxin molecules anyway; it'd be terribly inefficient.

I meant the poison as fuel. And well, I mean that soem brainwashing victims harber grudges that fester after they realize they were being used...and then...they snap.

For what it's worth, most of them aren't coerced. For those who were coerced, you'd have to do it in a subtle way - blackmail, perhaps - because the 'Shoppe doesn't brook coercion lightly. We understand that there are bedroom games that resemble coercion, but take steps to avoid actual criminal acts.
