7. What triggers nostalgia for them, most often? Do they enjoy that feeling?

Charcoal: Thinking, thinking, thinking. “I miss my old clan.” He started softly. “I’m from the Ashfall Waste, the Emberglow Hearth to be exact. I miss the dry air. The air isn’t dry, or heated, in the Labirynth. But the scouts bring food from there, and when we get to eat it, it tastes like home.”

Cupid: “Honey, my darling dear my little dandelion, I don’t focus on the past. I don’t miss anything! I have me and me alone and my two lovely little fae children and that’s all I need to get by in such a, ugly, clan.” 

20. If they were asked to explain the difference between romantic and platonic or familial love, how would they do so?

Charcoal: “Uhh.” The difference? “Well one is like me loving Carolina, because she’s from my old clan with me, so I love her like a sister. That’s familial love. Platonic is me loving my friends, like Carolina, because we’re from the same clan. Oh but she’s my sister so I can’t love her twice uh.. I guess... Mayall, is friendly love?” He had his arms cross before holding his chin, or the bottom of his beak (dragon physiology) with a claw. “So I guess romantic love would be who you’d want to make hatchlings with. I don’t have anyone like that.”

Cupid: The dragon watched the other one try to mentally work it out. Oh boy. “Love is a very complicated thing.” He butt in with a smile. “But in the end, all love is the same in the end.” He raised a claw. “Hard to believe, I know, but think about it. You need to love your friends to hang around them, you rarely ever find a mate unless you’re friends with them first, and even with family you hear the phrase ‘they’re like my best friend.’ You need to be friends with those you love, and it needs to be love. Sometimes we confuse love with obligatory feelings, like how you need to love your parents, but that’s not always the case, because if you ask Ranch, Honeydew, or Eggplant, parents can be absolute shit.” He stood straighter, wishing he had a board to help describe all of this. “So it starts at friendship, so to speak, all love in the end is platonic love of some sort, because you want to keep your friends in your life forever. The difference moving on is just trying to box in love. If you love your sibling like a friend, but also love your friend romantically, which love do you choose? It all gets very very complicated. However, I can agree that romantic love is a person you would like to get emotionally and physically closer to, someone who you can see a future with,” he motioned towards Charcoal. “Someone you would like to raise a family with.”

28. Would they prefer a lie over an unpleasant truth?

Charcoal: “An unpleasant truth. It’ll hurt or be awful but at least you know. You can move on when you know things.”

Cupid: A laugh left the spiral. “Oh honey, it’s definitely a lie. You can attract more flies with honey and all that. Keep your friends close and enemies closer, and lies are just the way to do that. After all, you think I like you!”

Charcoal: He looked down, unamused. “You don’t like anyone trust me this isn’t subtle.”

With your A-J questions, I’ll use each dragon starting a row!! c: I love Charcoal and Cupid but they’re not as super fleshed out as other dragons.

A) Why are you excited about this character?

As my Clan Leader, Cici has a lot of potential. If you’ve kept up with other asks, you’ve heard that people actually think PomeGrape is the head of the clan because he makes the decisions and orders people around, which then brings the question as to why Cici allows that and allows that belief to live while she’s also Clan Head. I’m not too sure myself why she does it yet, but Pome always does come to her for final decisions, as do other dragons as well. So they know she’s clan head but they just like Pome more. I think she lets him be the figurehead the face of leadership, when she does most of it. We haven’t delved a lot into her backstory yet (especially since she’s my progen) but there’s definitely a lot of potential with her that I can’t wait to unlock!

B) What inspired you to create them?

So Honeydew is actually one of the few dragons to have some decent lore (at least decent in terms of how much there is). His father is the same as Ranch’s, making them half-brothers, and when my friend told me that Felix hatched another nest and asked if I wanted any, I had to look. Her Felix is know for being pretty gaudy, pretty full of himself (a lot like Cupid) so I figured, since him and his wife are both really bright yellows, Honey, who seemed a little less bright, would get thrown out. From there I knew he would be a lot different from his brother, and I really wanted Ranch to get out of his scared depressed state too, so raising someone who was his opposite was the surefire way to do that! I like character growth where I can get it.

C) Did you have trouble figuring out where they fit in their own story?

PomeGrape definitely had some rocky beginnings, he was a gift from a friend and he was supposed to be really cold and really mean and turns out he’s anything but that. So it was harder to develop his personality than it actually was his role. He sort of fell into his role of ‘organizing the life of the clan’ but since he was pretty solitary, I had to find reasons for other dragons to visit him. Turns out he’s a pretty nice dude. He ended up good thanks to his mate. 

D) Have they always had the same physical appearance, or have you had to edit how they look?

HA YES I WAS HOPING THIS QUESTION WOULD LINE UP WITH ILIANA. Okay so Iliana is actually an original character of mine!! Her original appearance, as a human, which is what she is originally is based off Saoirse Ronan in Hanna. She’s a clone set in an xmen universe and she’s always been somewhat shy, sticking close to one person. To transfer that Iliana to dragon form was hard because she’s such a soft, gentle, very kind girl who was put through very cruel and unusual situations but still came out very nice. I wanted her coloring and her breed to reflect that, but I could never scry anything perfect. I forgot how I ended up finding the nocturne that is now dragon Iliana. I really don’t remember what I was looking for but I saw her and it wasn’t even a second guess I just immediately bought her for all the treasure she was worth. She still looked very soft and very gentle and very princess-like, but I’ve been saving up for a skin from here because dragon Iliana does go through the coliseum a lot with her now-girlfriend Georgiana, and it hasn’t been very kind to her.

E) Are they someone you would get along with? Would they get along with you?

Frir is an odd dragon. When I first joined FR I really really loved snaps so I was disappointed when I couldn’t make a snap, and he was donated to me. Naturally I loved his appearance half to death because I love brightly colored dragons but I never knew what to do with him, and I still don’t. I just know he’s mute, he follows Mayall around a lot (technically they’re dating) and he likes to go scavenging. I don’t think I’d get along with him, because I love to talk a lot and I love the conversation that happens, but I think Frir could get along with anyone. He’s a very loving dragon who cares about everyone.

F) What do you feel when you think of your OC (pride, excitement, frustration, etc)?

So, Phosphorescence makes me feel.... I’m not sure. I kinda want to hate him but I don’t? He doesn’t have the same pack-mentality the other mirrors have. If anything he displays none of the mirror traits of bloodthirsty-ness and needing to survive. He does eat a lot but he’s managed it, especially in Viridian Labyrinth where there’s never a lack of food. But I feel bad for him, because he can’t relate to other mirrors, so he’s sort of friendless because that mirror stereotype is applied to him when he doesn’t fit it at all. He ends up working at night, because he glows in the dark so helps lost dragons find their way back, or helps Minnie and Carolina with plants that can only be obtained at night. 

G) What trait of theirs bothers you the most?

So Heng is a recently created dragon (because her and Jian are part of my breeding project for another oc dragon) and I think what bothers me about her the most (aside from my lack of giving her lore) is that she seems really clever very early on. Or really possessive. She works as an acolyte for the demigod Jian, so she spends a lot of her time with him and she swears she loves him, but something about her just rubs me wrong, like, I know she doesn’t have good intentions but I haven’t figured them out yet.

H) What trait do you admire most?

Ugh, Anteros. He’s technically one of Cupid’s adopted kids but like all faes in my clan, he has a really hard time speaking the common tongue that larger dragons share, because faes mainly communicate body language through their head frills. And with a slightly neglectful dad (cupid swears he loves them, but their ideas aren’t always up to cupid standards) he’s sort of been sitting and doing nothing with his sister a lot. I guess I admire the way he cares for his sister and helps her out despite their circumstances. Cupid’s not a bad dad, but he’s not great. Anteros prefers to be alone because of it, but him and his sister will go talk to the other faes to get some socialization and understanding what’s going on. He’s learning to be independent, that’s what I like.

I) Do you prefer to keep them in their canon universe?

HA. No. So Calzone is originally a subspecies of dragon called ‘Pizza Dragons.’ Which means, logically, he should be made of pizza. But lord knows I only loved calzone for his genes and not for his ‘canon lore.’ So I threw him out of it and made him the exalter of the clan instead. I loved the genes but not the lore. He’s actually friends with Chikan. 

J) Did you have to manipulate or exclude canon factors to allow them to create their character?

I have tried to publish this three times I’m so frustrated with tumblr.

Cave system 

Openings to the sky, to pools, and to fields

hey guess who finally looked in their inbox cuz i meant to see my likes instead.

14. Do you miss someone?

Yes, but they were a past abuser. I understand what they did was wrong, and I understand the relationship was bad, but sometimes I still miss them and wonder how they’re doing. 

65. Your best friend of the opposite sex likes you, what do you do?

Apologize and say I can’t return their feelings. Being friends is much better, but if they can’t continue to be that then I’m entirely okay if they don’t wish to talk anymore. I want them to make sure they’re okay after being declined.

70. Is there anyone you would die for?

My dogs

Korean Food

Wearing a blanket/sweater

Sleep

35. Is every person in this world wholly unique or can they be categorized? Can they be grouped and mentally dissected? Are you just another sheep in another flock or are you the sole unique soul?

“I,” This question was hitting far too close to home for the spiral, Ranch looking away, body starting to curl. “Everyone...” He sunk into his coiling body, ears practically limp at the sides of his head. “People will tell you, that you are or aren’t a thing, and you always need to take it with a grain of salt.” His arms had tucked in, resembling a freshly born hatchling, only his claws peeking out. “Because, it’s a complicated thing, dragons, you’re this dragon or that dragon, and you are, you need to look and go ‘maybe I am’ or ‘maybe i’m not’ because, because it’s really up for you to decide. You’re unique, but you just share traits with others. It’s impossible to not. You can group them, but only by a handful of traits at the best, not who they are as a whole. You’re just, picking them apart at that point, being nit-picky.” He gently ran his claws over his scales, looking at their shade of green, different than the one before and after it. “The soul is always unique, but everyone has a flock, sometimes multiple ones, and sometimes you’re the leader and the follower, the goal is to just not be purposely blind. Be yourself. You’re unique, you know.”

4. You have a secret you swore not to reveal. But this secret is the only thing that would prove your innocence in a separate matter. Is it worth risking your own well-being for the secret? Or would you betray the trust given to you?

Eyes narrowed at the question, Mireille standing tall, defending her ground, or herself. She wanted to speak, the answer she wanted in her head, but her tongue spilling a different story. “You hold it inside and pray to the Earthshaker that your friends will help you out and prove your innocence for you.” She stepped forward, getting close to the other dragon. “And if you reveal it you best be ready for the consequences because they will throw you out without a second thought, but it shows you who your friends are, in the end.”
