Redimus suffers from some form of suicidal ideation. For most of his life, he believed his life was less important than those of those around him. This has led to Redimus becoming reckless with his safety when it comes to protecting those he cares about, ie him taking on the Pillar Guards by himself to buy others time during the battle at New Attica and him letting himself get swept into the flooded ravine burrows to save Terradora

A few months after Terradora and Redimus became mates, there was an incident where a Snapfang (a large venomous snake-like creature) broke out from its cage and ran amok in the camp. Despite Terradora's warnings Redimus ran in to try and distract the creature to buy the other Dorcean time to take cover and get Lutumor. But before help could arrive the Snapfang made an attempt to strike at Terradora while she was escorting her father to safety. Without thinking, Redimus jumped in the way. The Snapfang sinking it's fangs into his shoulder and injected its poison into his system. The creature was put down just before Redimus lost consciousness

If you have a brother or sister, they’re probably the person who’ll be in your life the longest. Longer than your parents, who were there before you. Longer than your friends, who come and go with changes in schools, cities, or jobs. Longer than your partner, who doesn’t always stick around. Your brother or sister is usually there from the very beginning and stays with you until the end. They know things about you that no one else knows, and when life gets rough, they’re usually still there.  That doesn’t mean they don’t fight. Siblings fight; it’s part of how they get to know each other. But there’s a difference between fighting and actually treating each other badly. The only thing they really have is each other to play with, to keep each other company, to protect each other, and to look out for one another—because that’s what siblings do.

...Can you guess which scene is the last one?

They're an arboreal species- or at least, scansorial, preferring to hunt in the underbrush and bring their prey to the trees. Why do I say this?- Remember what Besteel did with Rovender and Eva after he captured them?

He hung them in a tree.

It makes me think of leopards that hang their prey up in treebranches to keep it safe for later consumption:

Maybe a bit of a stretch, because Besteel wasn't planning to eat them, and he had all sorts of other methods (containers, snaring them to the ground, etc.) of caging animals, but bear with me a bit. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this was common for Dorceans, to keep later meals safe from scavengers, or maybe to display trophies.

Also look at their prehensile feet and sharp, hooked, claws:

Look at the strange way they grasp rod like objects:

Like gripping a tree branch! They're pedal graspers! Take these climbers in our animal kingdom as an example:

"But arboreal animals usually have long prehensile tails to help them climb!" You might say, and you'd be right! Dorceans noticeably lack a tail; however, maybe they didn't need tails. They already have eight limbs that can grip branches and support their body weight.

But what about their size? How could they keep their balance?- They are large, but noticeably compact- a good body structure to have in order to maintain balance. And Orbona's forests have some particularly ginormous trees that could easily bear a Dorcean's weight- maybe their homeworld was like that, as well.

Something else to note: Besteel had no problem chasing Eva through Lacus (save squeezing into tight spaces)- he literally jumped TWENTY METERS to get at her- that's about 65 feet! 6 stories!!!! And he didn't even seem shaken! (Again, maybe their size and robust body plans absorb shock- a means of handling descent).

So clearly Dorceans (well him and Redimus at least), showed no signs of fearing heights. That could be explained away by their frequent use of gliders, but what if it's something innate in the species?

What if gliders, if indeed invented by Dorceans, was originally intended to help them glide between giant trees? Maybe a stretch.

Now here's where I'm inserting my own headcanons and expounding on their sexual dimorphism:

Female Dorceans are much larger and heavier than the males; they cannot use gliders, and might be too big to effectively engage in arboreal locomotion. So instead maybe females, due to their weight, strictly hunted in the underbrush- occasionally herding prey towards the tree cover where a male could jump down and ambush it. The male could also help the female display her trophies or store food away where scavengers or other predators couldn't get it.

How little emphasis the show puts on the actual WondLa and what it means. Yes, Eva starts the series thinking the "WondLa" is a place. But even with the reveal that it was a torn page from The Wizard of Oz, it becomes so much more than that. It becomes a symbol of the found family Eva has made, the home she's found, and the people she wants to protect. My favourite line in the second book is when Rovender tells Eva that she is his WondLa, because it beautifully shows the meaning WondLa has gained for the characters

Eva: *tries to project her period cramps onto Redimus when they first met, but he doesn't even flinch* What?
