One agent said they NRSApriority. The other said they did not. I would tend to believe agent #2 Agent #1's response could also have been a misunderstanding... though the DRAGON might have been responding again based on the interaction with the OP. Maybe the DRAGON wanted the OP to visit the upstairs agents so that they could do their primary job of checking guests into the club?
I don't really see a problem with MSPEconomist's word choice here. She doesn't say anything nasty about the agent; in fact, she infers that the agent is polite and courteous because he/she asked how her trip was. People use the term "dragon" just as much as they use the word "kettle." Neither is inherently derogatory - it's just the idea that a "dragon" guards a "castle," whether that castle is a Sky Club or the sterile area past the TSA checkpoint.
