Lowkey one of the most scary things about having shapeshifting as a superpower.

After your first time shifting into a dragon and back, are you really the same person? Did you have a strong enough mental image of your appearance beforehand? Did you make yourself more attractive, and if so, was that the right thing to do?

Instructions not clear why would you switch back from being a dragon.

I would guess that if you can shapeshift you'd largely have to let go of the concept of an "original form". If you're trying to keep it a secret you'll probably give everyone an uncanny valley effect when your nose is a slightly different shape every time they see you.

To get into bars? Perhaps fashion reasons?

Isn't that the oldest joke in the book?

Where does the dragon sit at the bar? WHEREEVER HE WANTS.

If you have shapeshifting powers it would be weird if you didnt choose to make yourself more attractive.

Your "true form" may as well not exist anymore in favor of being whatever you want at any given moment. Your actions, rather than your appearance should define who you are.
