Max, a curious college student with an affinity for practical jokes, sat at the desk, randomly scribbling addresses on envelopes. "Let's see if this one gets a reply," he mused aloud, sealing yet another letter with a smirk.

Ember, a majestic dragon with scales shimmering in various hues of red and gold, unfurled a letter that had mysteriously found its way into his lair. "A human asking for a pen pal? How quaint," he chuckled, contemplating his reply.

Max opened the latest letter, his eyes widening as he read. Ember had not only responded but was now seeking advice. "He wants to woo a human? What do I even say?", Max muttered, scratching his head in disbelief.

Max, armed with his laptop and a sense of responsibility, typed a reply under the twinkling stars. "Humans appreciate genuine gestures. Perhaps start with a simple gift, something meaningful," he suggested, feeling a strange camaraderie with his scaly correspondent.

Max strolled through Eldridge, contemplating his own romantic endeavors while wondering how Ember was faring with his. A sudden thought struck him – what if the dragon's human crush was closer than he thought?

Max received another letter from Ember, this time filled with gratitude and tales of human-dragon adventures. "Your advice worked wonders. I've never been happier," the letter read. Max smiled, realizing that their unusual friendship had become a bridge between worlds.
