Greetings one and all!

Excited to talk to everyone. You all seem so lovely and informative. So I just have an idea for a possible encounter for my group. My setting is based off of Studio Ghibli, British animation from the 80s-90s and I am trying to make it as light hearted as possible. Turns out my players surprised me by eating everything I threw at them and more. I was used to having my other group run in the opposite direction and going on to commit mass murder. Nope not this group. it was like they railroaded themselves except they were in character.(which was why I was confused at first.

Anyways since they have taken all my plot hooks, ideas and interacted with any npc within a 50ft radius it made me feel more encouraged to make a better game and keep letting them have fun.

So here is my idea.

I was thinking of having a circus troupe or some band of entertainers be encountered on the street, maybe among a highway or what ever and the main attraction is a skeletal dragon encounter(only the torso, limbs, and head). This dragon would be controlled by a group of goblins with a series of pulleys. The players would be in no real danger and would win loot for besting the infamous challenge. The secret to winning is something like cutting the wires so the dragon can't move/attack the party.

Critiques? Is my idea dumb? Can it be improved upon? What would you guys do differently.
