[dj khaleed voice] anotha one (dragon wip)

in order to defend against the Giant Monsters that forced humanity to flee underground a Long Long Time Ago, humans created Giant Mecha (in the shape of dragons of course) to fight them. piloting a dragon involves a Metaphysical Connection with the artificial soul of the dragon, to which prolonged exposure causes the Physical Barriers btwn flesh human and mechanical dragon to blur and ultimately meld, resulting in what is colloquially known as "grafting," a fast and explosive growth of new flesh from the cockpit out that fuses pilot and dragon into one body and soul. bc of this, pilots only have a few years of service before being forced to retire and their dragons decommissioned, so there's always a need for new pilots.

(the group of pilots is known as the "steel wing corps," with each group divided into wings, eg "first wing," with the protagonist's group being fourth wing, so you can imagine im A Little Salty about the book that obviously broke into my google docs and stole the idea out from under me)
