EXTRA OVERCOMPLICATED ICEWIIIIINGS

You know how it goes, Joy Ang is cool and I'm not yadda yadda move on.

Details and explanation below!

Otherwise, next week is the last Pyrrhian tribe: NightWings!!!! See you then!

More overcomplicated dragons.

If the RainWings are the design that destroys Joy's work the least, this one takes the original IceWings and tosses them out the window. Going into this design I knew it would be hard, but boy was I unprepared to get art block for 2 months because of it.

I eventually found my inspiration in the girdled, spiny, and horned lizards, They. Are. So. Freaking cool. If you think a crocodile skink is awesome, look up girdled lizards. Not as fancy with the eyeliner but they are SPIKY!

I fell in love in particular with the giant girdled lizard. I knew I wanted the scales of the IceWing to look rough and like they were made of actual ice or diamonds - or covered in frozen sleet and snow - and this lizard was basically perfect inspo for that. Also, blue spiny lizards. They are basically real life IceWings, full stop.

But even though I had perfect references to draw from, I still struggled with the head shape. I wanted them to feel like a reptilian polar bear, which is why I slightly blunted it, but I think I should have gone with a more angular shape instead. I can always change it later when I do their full-body.

I did have a very fun time with the horns, however. I wanted them to be a mix of narwhal teeth and icicles (yes, narwhal 'horns' are actually overgrown teeth. One tooth, usually, but sometimes they can have two!!). Before I get distracted I should explain how they grow: the scales at the base of the horn are constantly growing and essentially create the horn. That's what gives them their narwhal-like spirals.

I chose a similar approach to the neck spikes (untangling that mess was fun, let me tell you. Grids are very useful when doing many scales/spikes). At the base of each one you'll notice a scale forming it. On the back, I wanted to give a good side profile of the spikes. Technically, they are ever-growing, and need to be trimmed or sharpened constantly.

Now, as I was drawing them, I asked myself: why do IceWings need a mane of spikes?

A stupid question, you might wonder, but to me it's very important. Animals look the way they do for survival. So, while it's important visually for the ice theme, how could they be explained scientifically?

And then, when thinking of polar bears, I got my answer.

How the hell does a giant sparkly dragon hunt in the north? Seals would probably be part of their diet, but it's hard to sneak up on them if you're a ten ton reptilian flying creature, so I imagine they would tackle the problem like a polar bear would by waiting by a breathing hole and pouncing at the right moment. They already look like a frozen snowbank, so that part is easy.

But any hungry polar bear would be doing the same thing, and like a giant dragon, they would be waiting downwind of the breathing hole too. They wouldn't pose a threat to adult dragons or dragonets larger than them, but in real life polar bears are dangerous hunters and prey on humans. Why wouldn't it prey on a dragonet it thinks it can take on? Things in the WOF universe seem to be extra big (or scavengers/humans are tiny) so I think it would be a feasible for a desperate bear to hunt a dragon. They cannibalize, anyway, so going after another apex predator isn't out of the question. In this case, the horns and neck spikes would be a dragonet's saving grace, discouraging attacks from behind and especially on their necks. A bear's teeth could never get through their scales, but they could still crush their airways and choke them, and the spikes would keep them away from their necks and protect them from that fate. As they grow up, the neck spikes' length and strength could be used to determine a dragon's health and help them select good partners.

Finally, continuing with the bear theme: for the scales, I took inspiration from polar bear fur (which is actually hollow) to help design how IceWings preserve their body heat. In polar bears, its used to make them look white by reflecting the light of the sun, but in IceWings it could keep the cold out. Air pockets would create a barrier between them and the outside elements, and whatever gets in would meet their thick layer of fat that does the real warming. Yes, IceWings would be squishy, but you'd probably poke your eye out or stick permanently to their side a la tongue to cold metal pole.

Don't hug IceWings; they're very cold.

Coming out of my cave to post art on here again

I'm trying ( heavy emphasis on trying 😭 ) to make designs for every arc 1 WoF character, and since mudwings are the easiest tribe for me to draw I started with clay and his siblings

Their shapes and stuff make sense in my head and have reasonings but I can't put them into words rghHHgdgGGRRRghhgfh

CHARACTERS; CLAY [ TOP LEFT ] , SORA [BOTTOM LEFT ] , UMBER [ TOP RIGHT ] , REED [ BOTTOM RIGHT ]

For Clay I wanted to make him simple, going along with him not thinking that he's anything special and not fit for the prophecy. He's still brighter than his sibs though, and has the brightest colored scales before his underbelly. (Do those have a name?? )

For Sora I wanted her kinda deer-like, with softer/less bold edges than the others. She has a scar in the same place Crane's death wound was.

For Umber I just stuck pretty closely to the canon design, adding some splotches and giving him a different shape than the others.

Finally, for Reed I just made him clay but duller, and more red. He nearly looks just like clay shape-wise, but is more inward. (I have no idea how to describe this 😭)

CHARACTERS; MARSH [ TOP LEFT ] , PHEASANT [ BOTTOM LEFT ] , CRANE [ BOTTOM RIGHT ]

I had the most fun with these guys can u tell

For Marsh I made him more sharp and edgy than the others to go with his anxious personality. His colors are very similar to Clay's, but he has splotches and light colored horns. (I love Marsh, he's underappreciated)

For Pheasant I wanted to base her off of a pheasant. Her markings are similar to those of a ring-necked pheasant, with her reds being the same as Umber's. She originally had green-ish yellow on her to go with her eyes (and also because pheasants have green on them) but I couldn't get it to work. (crying spongebob image) Her shape is more 'elegant' than her sibs. I think her design is my favorite out of all of these.

For Crane I based her lightly off of a crane. (🤯🤯🤯) She shares colors with sora and umber. (Sora because obviously, Umber because I needed his reds 😁) since really all we know about her is that she was protective of her sibs (as literally all of them are) I made her fierce and determined looking. Version without her death wound below

I got more confident in not following the canon designs super closely the more designs I made and it shows 😭😭 I never realized how much variety you can make in mudwings despite them being the 'boring' ones

adding image ID/alt texts tomorrow I needed to post this before I forgor but it's almost 12 and im tired goodnight jasper fans

[mentheii]

wof drawings i did for inktober!

notes:

4. exotic: glory + bird. design notes:

- cloud markings because i feel like she grew a habit of subconsciously trying to emulate a skywing. also yeah the raindrops represent her friends :) i think it’d be nice if all the dod had something like that

- purple fade to yellow on her ruff like a morning glory flower

- just in general all my rainwing designs have horns pointing forward like a jackson’s chameleon

10. nomadic: nautilus leader of the talons of peace. no design notes because he’s just based off a nautilus and that’s it 💀

16. grunge: jerboa!! except i didn’t know what to do for the prompt and just looked up grunge color palette. also no idea what kind of goofy ahh blocky artstyle i went with but it looks cool so. design notes:

- kept her triangle thing and also added wave markings because she lives next to the ocean

- her horns are supposed to look like jerboa ears but i dunno 💀

- earring is from glacier 👍

19. ridge: idiot besties. design notes:

qibli:

- swirlies because moon described his brain as a rushing river once so i guess ??

- horns are wavy because a qibli is a wind

- NOT piss yellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (joke)

winter:

- ourple. random spots and hearts just for fun

- beyond that though i have no idea????? like i wanted him to be pink because it’d be funny and now he looks like a plushie or something

- it is funny though so.

- his jewelry is not funny though what was i on 💀

21. rhinoceros: random hivewing. rhinos kind of look like animal crackers

28. jumbo: jumbo dragon with a jumbo ego 💀 design notes:

- yeah i did not think about bro at all 😭 this is absolutely not my final darkstalker design

- i think nightwings should be other metallic colors other than silver so he’s gold. now that i think about it it’d be nice if he was rose gold too

- but um. before i made him gold the Comically Large Teardrop Scales were supposed to be silver and make his face look more like an icewing’s so ignore that

- the little white speckles are a) from his soul reader thing and b) supposed to make him more icewingy

- yeah i think it’s funny to make him look more like an icewing because he hates it. i really like the idea that he looks more and more icewingy as he ages too

[premamelody]

not what the last md wof au post was about but take some of the earliest art of it while i was still figuring things out lol

the first drawing i made on the au. just a little "imma see if this works" kind of drawing. you can tell from the start i kind of intended the murder drones to not be completely hivewing, maybe with some nightwing.

most concept line up. changes of uzi and n from the last particularly are dimmer colors for uzi to fit her sort of emo theme whilst i tried to add more of the brighter colored metal the drones have. the names stayed the same actually and the most changed designs if i had to say are Doll and maybe Lizzy.

Finally old SwarmWing refs. There's actually a second base with the NightWing part in it but its so choppy I want to edit a cleaner one before i post it. This was all before the whole 'humans revealed to have not sent murder drones and it was the absolutesolver' sort of thing so i just made them modified hivewings that they can send so hivewings can keep their fierce image whilst not wasting resources on finding run away silkwing animi.

[random-chaos-and-stuff]

I finally got enough courage to post this, so here’s one of my Wings of Fire OC’s I made/drew, Lotis! Her name is based off the Lotis Blue Butterfly, and she is a tribrid. She has a Silkwing mother, and a Rainwing/Sandwing hybrid father.

I’ll put the backstory, abilities, lore and stuff under the cut, alongside a version with no background and her outline, as well as the generation method that I used to make her/get the inspiration to make her, as it’s pretty long.

Though admittedly a bit clumsy, Lotis is very sweet, and charms pretty much everyone she meets. Her mother is a silkwing who escaped the hives, and fled to Pyrrhia to live a new, truly free life. After a lot of travel, she ended up in the rainforest, finding the rainwings most welcoming, and finding their way of life good, as well as the plentiful amounts of fruit. Here she ended up meeting a sandwing/rainwing hybrid, who was the result of the magical tunnels leading from the sand kingdom to the rainforest, allowing a rainwing and a sandwing to meet up and mate. They fell for one another, and eventually had a child. This child was born with piebald patterns, most likely the result of underdeveloped rainwing color changing scales that can’t change meeting the near white of the sandwing, causing this mutation. This dragon is on the thinner, leaner side compared to most other dragons, but is a bit stocky compared to her mother. She lacks silk, and hatched with her wings, and though she has a tail barb, she has no venom whatsoever, and lacks the venomous fangs of rainwings. She has silkwing antenna though, which she can not only use to sense vibrations like a normal silkwing, but the emotions of other dragons, due to her mother having shown kindness and given aid to an animus dragon while on her journey, who then gave her a gift, saying that her next child would be able to always tell the emotions of others and help those in need. When Lotis hatched, she had the ability to sense the emotions of other dragons with her antenna, which was overwhelming at first when young, but she grew used to it and learned to control it, similar to mindreading and nightwings. She will often curl her antenna up when overwhelmed though. This power, along with her naturally sweet and charismatic disposition, makes her very good with dragonets, especially young or freshly hatched ones. She will happily befriend just about anyone, and will immediately come to another’s aid if she senses they are upset or unwell. She plans to eventually try and get a job at Jade Mountain Academy once she is old enough, but is happy for now just helping out with the younger dragonets in the rainforest. She is unable to change colors, but this does not bother her in the slightest, and she will proudly display her multi-colored and butterfly-like patterned frill to any younglings who take an interest in it. She also likes earrings, though more simple ones, and almost always wears some that she got from her mother. Her name is one her mother gave her, in reference to a kind of butterfly, but it is often confused with the flower of a similar sounding name, and will patiently (if tiredly) correct anyone who misspells it. She also got the friendly nickname of “Splotch”, for her piebald pattern and white splotches.

Here is the version with no background and the outline of her, as promised

Tada! I had trouble deciding on the colors, but she was very fun to draw. I originally drew her on paper, before tracing her and coloring her in a drawing app (mostly because I liked the original too much to color her+it was cleaner).

Here’s the generator thing I used to get the description and traits for her and all that, which was also very fun and helped me get through my art block. I didn’t make this, so credit to the original creator of the generation method, HoneyBeest.

This was incredibly helpful for getting the description and personality in my head, so I could draw her and make a backstory and all that, and get through my art block (which I had been trying to do for weeks, if not a month or two) and actually draw something.

Now, please keep in mind, this is mine! Do not repost (steal and put on other websites especially without credit)!

[wuzhere75]

So for some reason I got the idea of designing palaces for “all” of the WOF tribes. The specks that appear in most of these are supposed to be dragons to give a sense of scale.

From top left to bottom right

Rainwing (Modern)

-Modern Rainwings don’t really have “palaces” or separate households for the royal family.

-Most Rainwing “houses” are comprised of a covered platform and a hanging nest (the nest is mostly used by dragonets or for storage). The only difference for the “palace” would be a larger platform for social/diplomatic events, plus some extra adornments.

-The “old” Rainwing palace (not illustrated here, think the Queen Anaconda days) was a far more grandiose structure long sense destroyed in some unknown war (think the classic “lost jungle temple”). Scattered ruins of it can still be found around the main Rainwing village.

Skywing

-Mostly just the arena; it’s constructed out of a natural “bowl” at the base of some big cliffs. It was commissioned by some queen who wanted a big space for grandiose events, with the royal family eventually moving into a structure next to the arena after the old palace got destroyed in some war.

-The palace is mostly buried into the cliffs. Its pretty modest, at least for Scarlet-types (everything’s still probably gilded and studded with jewels)

Mudwing

-A prehistoric tree that has been carved out over time.

-The tree itself is likely older than the Scorching, a relic of the time when the Rainforest extended further into the Mud Kingdom. In modern times, while the area around it is still very tropical, but there are no trees remotely of its size around it.

-Even before being used as the palace, Mudwings and Rainwings alike had lived in hollows in its side for generations upon generations. It got moved into by some hippie queen who thought it would be badass to live in the big-ass tree that probably technically exists in another tribes territory but they chill.

-Likely amunis-touched or otherwise magically enchanted; no matter how much it gets tunneled into, the tree stayed alive.

-Historically, the palace has also took the form of large adobe buildings or wood cabins depending on what materials they have around.

Sandwing

-Originally built as a military fort; most previous palaces had been more on the eastern side of the Kingdom. Almost every queen that has occupied it has thought about building a new one; not one has ever gotten around to it.

-Bum fuck in the middle of nowhere

Icewing

-The only remaining palace that has been continuously used as the palace since its creation.

-Created out of an enchanted glacier overlooking the sea. Over the years many additions have been made, magically created or otherwise It looks utterly insane and defies all laws of physics. Largest palace if you don’t count the whole Wasp Hive as a “palace”.

-It’s considered rude and against tradition to try to remove additions made by previous queens, though many work around less ascetically pleasing features by covering it up with even more stuff. This ends up with kind of a full-on Winchester-house situation, there’s a whole bunch of unused rooms and staircases that go to nowhere.

Bugwing (Wasp Hive)

-I don’t have much to say on this one; this is just what the wasp hive looks like (the actual palace is more like a penthouse somewhere in the middle of it).

Seawing

-I originally was just going to do hydrothermal vents some amunis created; but then I remembered “bubble gardens” where described in the books, so the hydrothermal vents, while still warm (enough to incubate eggs), they aren’t scalding and spewing volcanic fumes

Nightwing (1st volcano)

-This is what the first Nightwing palaces that was created on the volcanic archipelago (not Vigilance era, but maybe the next generation afterward). It’s inside of an extinct volcano that has filled with water (inspired by that one part of 20,000 leagues under the sea). There’s smaller caves that have been carved in the sides, with docks built out into the water.

-This got destroyed in one of the subsequent periods of activity of a the volcano on a nearby island.

-I don’t know what the “old kingdom” palace looked like (maybe like a cave hidden behind a waterfall.

Anyways Leafwings don’t really have a palace because that’s not really part of their culture (“the queen sleeps among her citizens”). A whole colony of Leafwings might end up living in a tree similar to Mudwings, but just one hollow would be reserved for the queen.

A recent drawing of Bear, my MudWing OC!

I actually made Bear before the protagonist of The Dangerous Gift was announced, and I came up with an OC as a way to make a MudWing protagonist.

I can shift details around depending on the RP, but these are canon-compliant ideas I had at the time, updated based on what I know about how the story ends.

The prologue would likely be from Glory or Queen Moorhen's perspective, as they meet up to discuss the MudWings killed in the Rainforest. During the meeting, Moorhen's scribe (Bear) bursts into tears, explaining that the bodies they brought out were the last of their sibs. Bear is an only child now.

Timeskip to after the War of Sandwing Succession, and after Darkstalker has been defeated. Bear is travelling around Pyrrhia. after learning they're an only child, Moorhen insisted that Bear take time off to pursue their dream of studying the world and documenting it in scrolls to be published all over.

Throughout this, Bear is haunted by the deaths of their sibs but is distracting themselves with research, refusing to acknowledge the pain they're in.

During their research, they're trying to figure out a way to get past the great ice cliff to interview some icewings, and they sleep on an island, and wake up to being surrounded by pantalan dragons!

from here it's fuzzy on the details, but I picture that throughout the story, Bear learns to admit that they're not okay and they need help.

The book ends with Bear talking with Moorhen about what Mudwing should be sent to Pantala to defeat the Othermind, but they end up talking about Bear's situation, and organising Bear to become an unsib.

Bear isn't too keen on it, because they feel that it'd be replacing the siblings they lost, and they worry about upsetting the balance of an already established sibling dynamic. That's when Moorhen offers to let Bear join HER sib troop.

Throughout the story, Bear would have likened Moorhen to a big sister to the entire tribe, the Bigwings to rule all bigwings. So this offer delights Bear, and the book ends with them choosing Bullfrog for muscle, and Bear learning that admitting there's a problem is the first step to fixing it.

I don't think it's a better story than what we got with Snowfall, but I think it's neat. and in my mind, Bear exists in WoF, they're just in the background.

My WoF headcanon things seemed to have done well!

Would y’all be interested if I made more?

Random stuff involving them:

-I plan on making the SeaWings first because they are my favorite tribe LOL

-These headcanons are not supposed to be accurate to the books

-Will probably do hybrids last unless I’m super motivated lol (because it would require a lot of edits)

-I will not add accessories to any of the characters (such as jewelry, armor, etc.). Only because I am confident I wouldn’t be able to draw them in the same style as the bases… making them look off as a result lol

-All headcanons will be made from bases made from Joy Ang’s amazing art lol (As well as Peregrinecella for the Beetlewings or if I use any other bases made from her)

Regarding the headcanon post before this:

-I headcanon Seawings being colorful and having a LOT of unique variety due to the fact ocean/sea life are like that irl (even if that was intended canonically for the Rainwings to be the most vibrant and colorful tribe LOL)

-I gave Seawings that are of royal blood dark sclera. Why? No reason honestly… I just think it looks cool LOL

SPEAKING OF THAT, I Made 2 more Seawing headcanon designs if people are interested lol

Hello!! First: I think calling your asks a mail box is so cute )::

Secondly: Are.. you a nightwing? Have you ever thought about mixing TDCA with WOF?? I personally see sun and moon as a nightwing sandwing hybrid who was cursed by magic to switch forms between the light and the dark ::3 but I would love to hear your thoughts!! (If you don’t care much for WOF still would love to hear your thoughts on dragon versions of sun and moon !!) - Muffiiee

TYSM!^^ I might change it eventually, as I had it like that because I was playing around with my phone notification sounds skkdjwjeej. I'll probably keep it for a while tho!

Also, the "I wonder who it's from!" in the gif immediately made me think of Blues Clues akdbdbdbdbbb

And no, I'm not a Nightwing. Dw tho! A lot of people get her confused! She actually has a separate WoF design (Rain/Night) that's on my TH!^^ Her regular design is non-wof.

And yes, I have! AKJSJSHSHHS i finally get to talk about them! I am currently working on the WoF!DCA lore (at least for my renditions).

Base by LotusMoon

They're separate dragons in mine, and they're brothers! They're Sand/night hybrids with just a biiit of Skywing heritage (hence Sunny's tail!)

They ended up working for Thorn in the Scorpion Den during the tail end of the war as caretakers, mainly caring for injured and orphaned dragonets.

After the war, they decide to start a daycare/orphanage, considering there were still many displaced dragonets during the war. (Mind you, they're still 17 or so in human years at this time, so probably 6-7 in dragon years and still considered dragonets. Around the same age as the DoD ig idk anymore lol)

I don't have their lore figured out much beyond that though-

(However, I have thought about pulling these two into my Ninjago Multiverse AU. Galaxy, (my sona) is the MC of that au and got dragged to the Pizzaplex to stop the virus via her Portals, and now works there. Sun and Moon have accidentally ended up on two adventures with her (Hunger Games and an MLP infection world). Maybe I'll add a third at some point, and DCA Sun and Moon end up dragons for a while ajdjdhjd)

I also have a few OCs I want to involve in their lore somehow. I was actually writing in that specific Google doc when I got this ask LMAO-

I can give you a few snippets if you want! :D (Some of it not Sun and Moon related specifically, but I might tie the other character's story into theirs later! (If I make full fledged fics, I'll probably post em in a similar style to the WoF books; one in Skyfrost's pov, one in Sun's, one in Moon's, ect. Although, I'm already working on two fnaf fics and many little smaller drabbles so it might be a while before I get anything very long XD)

Fatal Flaw

Fandom: WoF

Characters: Clearsight, Darkstalker

CW: Clearstalker-typical behavior (manipulation, fighting, the works)

Summary: Clearsight confronts Darkstalker after discovering that he cursed her earring.

Word Count: 3.4K

A/N: So I was possessed to write this nightmare of a relationship. I forgot how blatantly and obviously evil Darkstalker was presented in the Legends. The scene where this oneshot's based on has him give a half-assed reason for enchanting Clearsight's earrings and quite literally (no exaggeration here) basically going: "Well then, buh-bye! I am going to kill the queen!"

Anywho, enjoy!

Clearsight swooped down, landing onto the library. She paced around the area, trying to relieve some stress before the inevitable were to happen. All of the futures near her came crashing together, forming a clear idea of what was to happen.

She and Darkstalker were going to have a little argument.

She hadn't remembered the last time they argued. Minor disagreements? Sure, yes, of course. Every couple has those. But, an argument? That was something entirely different. Yet, she didn't think of it as frightening. She knew what Darkstalker could do. She couldn't care less though. What he had done- what he plans on doing to this kingdom... Well, to simply stand by and let it happen would be the worst mistake possible.

This was necessary, both for them and their relationship and for the rest of the kingdom.

Darkstalker landed beside her, dust kicking up from his wings. "The library rooftop?" He glanced around the area. It was a peaceful and quiet area. A small garden surrounded them, benches dotted every now and then. Marble spires stood in the corners. Combined with the setting sun and the beautiful hues of twilight, it was a gorgeous place.

"My, what a romantic little spot you've dragged me to," he said, his eyes eventually landing on a white rose. He plucked the head of it, handing it over to her. "But, it all pales in comparison to you."

Clearsight grumbled in response. "You know why we're here."

"What? Was that too cheesy of a compliment, even for your standards?" He chuckled. "I see." He crumpled the rose, throwing the remains back into the bushes. "Simply putting off the main event. Trying to lighten the mood before you begin it all."

Clearsight sighed. "Not too great how you put it like that. I'm not some big bad evil dragon for not wanting my closest friend to trick me."

"Friend? Is that what I've been relegated to?"

"I-" she took a small breath. "-I didn't mean it like that. I still...love you, just I don't feel particularly safe when you go behind my back and do things." She fidgeted with her ear. "I loved that earring, you know? It went well with my eyes, yes, but when I heard you made it yourself I... I thought it was even better. You told me you didn't enchant it into being."

"I didn't. I did make it, that part is true."

"Then what about enchanting it to make me unable to see any futures where you're king of the NightWings? Ones where you're some self-proclaimed emperor over the entire continent?"

He merely looked at her straight in the eyes and said, "that was a little bonus. Come now, don't act like you weren't a lot happier once they stopped happening."

"I didn't even remember them happening before!"

"Another little bonus. Makes you forget that they were even there in the first place. For all you knew, I was perfect. We'd be together for the rest of our short, insignificant lives, raising dragonets and being happy in each other's company. Not to say those futures aren't pleasant in their own right, but I'd rather have my life here be one of more...magnitude. To do something. To be a hero in the eyes of many, as opposed to hiding away like a coward and afraid of my own magic."

"That's what you think of Fathom all along, isn't it?" she asked.

"Fathom? Him? I suppose it is, yes. Though, he'll come out of his shell eventually. A shame he hasn't used his potential to its fullest. That old murderer did a number on his psyche, didn't it?" His face shifted into a crooked smile.

"He's your friend," she hissed.

"I know he is. I want to help him. It's what I've been focusing on more as of late. I don't see what is the issue."

"The issue is that you seem a lot more confident in using your magic."

"Shouldn't I be?" he asked, approaching her. "Clearsight, love of my life, I've never been scared of my magic. I've been liberal with my usage, yes, but never scared. My powers are a gift, one that I must use to bring peace to the two tribes."

"You want to kill them."

Darkstalker paused. "And what makes you say that?" Looking at him was as though staring into pure evil. Yet, he looked no different than the dragonet she had met all those years back. This dragon she cared about, shared laughs and memories with, spent so much time with, was he really like this?

She tapped her claws on the wooden floor. "I can see all these futures where the Ice Kingdom is reduced to ash and dust. Ones where you've repurposed it into more land for the NightWings. Ones where you force all the IceWings to submit and bow to you. I can see ones where I'm standing next to you, watching as the gorgeous palace burns." She sighed. "And we're smiling. You're smiling. Me? I can...feel it. In all of those futures, it's the same. I can feel how my face is forced into that position. I'm not happy. I want to scream at you. I want to claw your throat out. I want to stop this chaos. I hate you. Yet, I stand there, useless and incapable of doing anything. In those futures, you've done something to me to make me...nothing like me."

Darkstalker straightened his neck. "You're stressed over that? The chance that I control you further than you'd like?"

"It's not just that. I mean, yes of course I'd rather remain myself and sufficiently not enchanted beyond recognition just so you still have somebody by your side in your conquest, but it's more." She blinked, feeling her eyes welling up. "I don't want you to do any of these things. You know I don't. You're probably prying around in my mind right now, aren't you? You're seeing all of the futures and plotting what next to say so you're so frustratingly distant." She flexed her claws. "Why can't you just be yourself? Why can't it be like the old days?"

He laughed. "I don't think I could go back to those 'old days' if I'd like. I don't know how else to tell you, but I've always been like this. It's almost adorable, how you constantly try to go back through those old memories. You keep trying to cling to the idea that I was once a better dragon. Some innocent and hapless fool. Perhaps I was once that. But, that was your rose-coloured view of me. I assure you, my sweet, that I was no different back then." He grinned.

A lump formed in her throat. She wanted to speak, say anything. It didn't matter what. A half-baked insult. Pleading that he was lying. Desperate attempts to reason with him and talk him out of it all. Something as pathetic and sad as a quiet, strained sob. Yet, nothing. She was frozen.

"I can tell it's a lot to take in." He drew closer to her. "I would be shocked too if I were in your position. The love of my life? Somebody who I've trusted for so long? How could you be so cruel? Well, I personally don't see it as that. Perhaps you're giving these IceWings too much credence."

"Why shouldn't I?" Clearsight spat out.

"Why? Because they don't deserve to be treated with kindness and respect. You know this too, don't know? IceWings are vile, horrible dragons. Look at them. Look at their circles. Standing high and mighty with such pride and arrogance as to believe they are a superior tribe. They are pathetic. They hide behind their lavish walls and watch the rest of the continent, laughing amongst themselves for other tribes not being as civilized as them. Hypocrites. They spit and laugh at those lower to them. Put the weak, ill, elderly, those deemed 'useless' at the outskirts of their kingdom, far from where they can hear their pleas for help."

Darkstalker's eyes narrowed harshly. "They hate. That's the only thing they know how to do. They hate their own brothers and sisters for not being as nauseously strong. Imagine: you are doomed to live in horrible conditions and deemed utterly useless by your society for simply being hatched with an illness, not being physically able to hunt, or for having the smallest shred of decency and kindness in your soul. For simply not being 'good enough', you are sentenced to a village where, if there ever were to be an attack, your house would go up in flames and no guards would be to save you. If anything, those in the higher circles will laugh as they drink their wine and eat their lavish meals, giggling about how it was about time."

He looked back at her. "Do you think those dragons deserve sympathy? Mercy? They are disgusting. Revolting on all levels. They are built on hate and oppressive rules that only hurt. They want nothing more than the destruction of the rest of the tribes. To be the only ones. They are vicious, horrible dragons who don't deserve even an ounce of kindness. They only destroy, pillage, and hate. They would be better off gone. No more could they hurt. No longer will they be able to curse this continent with their presence. It would be a blessing if I were to just snap my talons right now and force them all to tear their own hearts out, wouldn't you agree, my darling Clearsight?"

Clearsight had to hold back from gagging. To hear him speak with such vitriol and malice... She knew he wasn't fond of them. But, to this extent? To kill them all? Vile. Simply evil.

"Evil?" he echoed, "seems a bit much."

"So you ARE reading my mind!" she snapped.

"Of course. It's a bit hard to. I love hearing your thoughts. They're oftentimes eloquent and beautiful. A lot more refined and pleasing than any other dragon I've met." He raised his talons, stroking her snout. "You're a perfect dragon. You deserve better than to be so...fragile."

"Is that what you think of me? Fragile?" She backed away.

"Well, it isn't-"

"No, you think of yourself as better than me, don't know? More powerful. You have the ability to do whatever you want, and it- it's all gone to your head! Look out at the plaza. Look at all of these NightWings. What do you see them as."

Darkstalker glanced at the busy streets. "I see them as...weak beings."

"So you admit it."

"Of course! I would never lie to you."

"You lied about the earring."

"You never asked or questioned if it was enchanted, only if it I willed it into being," he answered, a smug, pompous feeling etched into his words.

"I shouldn't have to ask if it's enchanted! I should just be able to trust you and not have to sit there, wondering if every second is my last one spent free. Perhaps I'm enchanted right now. The moons only know if you've subtly messed with me. Every thought of mine could be influenced by your magic. I wouldn't even know if what I'm saying is what the real me would do-"

Darkstalker cut her off with his low, rumbly laugh. "Your paranoia is so funny to see. My sweet, if I didn't value you so much, I would've silenced you and made you forget about everything. Put back on the earring, this time with a couple more adjustments so you never find out. Or perhaps make it a permanent spell on you. Make you quiet and agreeable." He tisked. "But, that's not you, is it? That's not the dragon who I love so dearly."

"So you value me and not enchanting me, but not the others? You would do this to anybody else?"

"Of course! Why wouldn't I? I'm only held back because I have a connection with you. A bond so deep it defies the universe. I love you, Clearsight."

"You...you want to kill the IceWings," she muttered.

"A necessary action to take to ensure the safety and prosperity of not only our kingdom, but the entire tribe. Look at me and tell me that the IceWings offer anything of value to the other tribes. Anything. Their culture isn't anything to gawk at. It's dystopian and shameful. It's oppressive and they value certain dragons more than others over superficial and idiotic reasons, leaving others behind to feed off of the scraps."

"Isn't that what you are like as well?" she asked.

A pause. The atmosphere grew tense and stiff. It was harder to breathe, her lungs almost rejecting what little air could worm its way into her. Darkstalker's eyes were still, the silvery pupils glistening in the evening light.

"Clearsight!" he responded, his manner playful and humorous. It didn't hide the brewing frustration in him. "You honestly believe I am like that? To be even so much as comparable to them? That's rich!" He laughed.

"I'm not joking. Th- this isn't a joke! These are dragons, Darkstalker. Dragons with real lives you're talking about. Hopes, dreams, goals, aspirations, all that. They are as alive as you are."

He snorted. "Again, bold to assume they would even have those. Their lives are nothing but to serve the kingdom. They are miserable inside of it and out. Look no further than my father. A parasite on the life of my mother. He tricked her, making her believe that there was something more to him. That he wasn't like the rest. That he was as soulful as she was. Then, he trapped her in a loveless, horrible marriage. Not a day passed without them at each other's throats. Depressed and alone without anybody else except her two dragonets. That was until she finally had enough and..." he sighed. "She didn't deserve her fate. She didn't deserve such a grisly demise."

"So you're simply using your father as a reference? A guideline for how the tribe works?"

"It's only natural for the royalty of such a tribe to be practically the epitome of such a toxic and horrible environment. It's in his nature to act in such a way. To suck the life out of anything and everyone. He ruined Foeslayer. He ruined Whiteout. He ruined me. For that, I've seen enough. I know how terrible these dragons are."

"So you're completely fine with killing them all?"

"Yes."

Clearsight refrained from her knee-jerk reaction to scream and yell "What's WRONG with you?!" and rather took a small breath. "And what makes you believe you're any better than them? With all of your talk about being vastly greater than them? With believing you're higher and better than any other dragon? With thinking that everything would be better if the other tribe was dead?"

"Clearsight, that's a bit of a reach-"

"Is it? Is it!? From what you've been going on about, you've done nothing to say something even remotely moral. You've only tried to justify your actions. It's never your fault for anything, is it? You enchanting my earring, that was to make me happy, wasn't it? You never consulted me before. You simply altered me in a way I couldn't even tell as a 'surprise gift'. Was it really to make me happy? Or was it to make me shut up and blindly follow you?"

"Clearsight, that's quite enough-"

"I'm not done yet. The way you talk about other dragons is abhorrent at best and downright despicable and evil on the regular. Not just the IceWings, but anybody else. I'll spend an afternoon with Listener and then the minute I get back you'll go on and complain about her. I remember you once 'joking' about how you wished you could enchant her to lose her voice. I don't think that was so much of a joke as is what you genuinely wanted. You want power. You want to be this...figure that everyone loves. Aren't I and Fathom enough? Moons above we care about you."

"Clearsight, that's enough."

"You say you love me, but I can't honestly believe in that. I don't believe in my own feelings for you either. What part of me is real and genuinely cares about you, and what part is fabricated from your enchantments? I can't tell. Perhaps all of it. It's...sad watching you become this dragon. I know you're not like this. You're better. You're not some evil dragon. But, you're determined to see this through, aren't you? This plot to kill Queen Vigilance and claim her throne, as if you'll do any better of a job than her. She's got sheep for brains, but you're a monster-"

"Enough out of you!" Darkstalker snarled. He raised his talons, clamping them together. With that, Clearsight's mouth closed. She couldn't speak. Her breathing quickened as she tried to breathe. Whole whole body seized up. She couldn't move a muscle.

"I've been merciful for a while, letting you vent out your frustrations. Believe me, my dear, I understand why you would be so angry. It's only natural you'd react in such a way. However, you haven't grown to realize that this all is for, well, you. Me getting rid of the IceWings and making way for a sweet, peaceful existence? It's all for you to be happy. My parents weren't happy. I don't want us to be like them. Ever. We deserve a happier life, one full of love and joy."

He paced around her. "I do it all because I love you. None of it is selfish, I assure you. I promise you with all of my heart and soul that it's for you. Every enchantment. Every spell and utterance. It's all for you. Yes, even now with me keeping you still. I need a moment to talk. For you to understand without objecting or claiming falsehoods."

He came to her snout, grabbing her by the chin. He tilted her head up, letting her stare right into his cold, black eyes. "I love you, Clearsight. Though you may be scared, you may find me strange and unsettling, I know you do too. You may hate me in this moment. You may find me disgusting and horrible. But, we both know one thing is certain. You love me. It's the truth. You do love me. Even when you crawl into your bed tonight, hateful and wishing you could've said anything else to win this 'argument', you will love me. Even when I kill Vigilance, you will love me. Even when I send waves of plagues and famine upon the IceWings, slaughtering village after village in order to maintain peace and fulfill my destiny, you will love me. It's our fatal flaw. We love each other more than anything else."

He looked at her with a longing, sweet expression. "I love you, Clearsight. I love you."

With that, he opened his talons. Clearsight dropped to the ground, grasping at the floor. She gasped for air, clawing away from him.

"Would you like me to help you up?" He held out his talons.

"GET AWAY!" Clearsight screamed. She swiped at his claws with anger, sadness, and above all: fear. What would've otherwise been a blow so powerful and heavy it could've sliced at least a couple claws off glazed along his scales. Not a single scratch.

She flailed away from him, opening her wings and taking off into the skies. She flew away from the library, her legs sprinting through the air as if it would make her go faster. She needed to get away from him. She didn't even notice the tears pouring from her eyes until they were rushing against the wind, drying as quickly as they formed.

She felt hopeless. There was nothing she could do against him. Any sort of plea or reasoning would only make him more annoyed and upset. It could endanger more lives. He was already dead set on killing Queen Vigilance. It was only a matter of time he did it. She was useless.

But, above all, she felt betrayed. That wasn't the dragon she fell in love with. That couldn't be him. The one who she stuck by whenever things got rough. The one who cared about her and told her that she was the most lovely thing in the world. The one who promised her a loving, and sweet future where they'd both be happy and love each other.

That was the dragon she loved, not this...thing.

...was he even that different though? He was right. The more she thought about it, the more of these repressed memories bubbled up. Moments where Darkstalker would say or do something that would otherwise be harmful and horrible. He'd joke about the NightWings all bowing to him one day. He'd bring up hypothetical about him 'going mad' and what Fathom and her would do about it.

A sick, disgusting pit formed in her stomach as the realization dawned on her. She...really did love this dragon; and no matter what he'd do or what she'd say, there was nothing that could change that. This was the future Darkstalker that she wanted all of those years ago. This was her soulmate. This was the dragon who she loved.

info on my fantribes for the bfdi WOF au!

Foodwings:

They aren’t technically their own tribe, they’re subspecies of existing tribes

Gelatin is a subspecies of leaf, rain, and seawings. he can breathe underwater for a limited amount of time

Lollipop is a subspecies of sand and hivewings. her lollipop tail has venom in it, however its weaker than Sandwing and Hivewing venom, it just puts the person she injects it into a coma

Cake is a Subspecies of night, mud, and Silkwings. He can hold his breath for a maximum of 45 minutes, however he isnt good at holding his breath so he normally only holds his breath for 15-30 minutes at once

Pie is a subspecies of Silkwings, she can pull blueberry flavored silk from glands on her wrists, which she often uses to add flavor to fruit dishes she makes

Fries is a subspecies of rain and sandwings, he has weak venom in both his fangs and his tail, all it does is knock out the person he injects it with for a few hours, the rainwing venom he has just causes pain to the dragon

Donut is a subspecies of sandwings, he has no venom in his tail, but can go a long while without water and can withstand high heats

Taco is a subspecies of leaf (lettuce), sand (shell), and seawings (fish), she can breath underwater, her green can slightly shift colors to a brown, and she can live without water for a week, she also has venom in her tail just like fries

Mathwings:

They are a species of dragons from a different continent, one long destroyed. The mathwings had to flee from the continent as it was sinking. And they made it all the way to Goiky

X: one of the weaker mathwings, his powers are very limited to short distance teleporting, they’re also extremely small, looking like a dragonet of only a few years old, he also has very VERY weak wings and can barely fly, however, all these shortcomings give them another ability. He has, an EXTREMELY good sense of smell, he can be in a forest, surrounded by flowers and leaves, and smell out one tiny leafwing dragonet. He can sniff out the relative size of a dragon, what tribe they are (“i smell a leaf dragon” “i can smell a metal dragon?” “Hmm..a fire dragon..”)

4: one of the most powerful mathwings. Constantly gets mistaken for X’s parent, which he HATES as they are in a relationship with X. He can fly for weeks, possibly months, without a break (which was great for when the equation environment was destroyed)

2: another one of the most powerful mathwings. Pretty damn strong and can also fly for weeks. When the equation environment was destroyed, they would carry 9 or 6 when either of their wings got tired

6: a relatively normal mathwing, she can fly for a week before needing a break. He can also breathe fire, weak fire but still fire. They are dating 9 and constantly has to stop 9 from injuring themself

9: also relatively normal in power, can only fly for 3-5 days, can spit out acid from his fangs, and breathe fire, he can also squeeze into very tight spaces. Shes also a fuking dumbass

Mechanicalwings:

mechanicalwings are robotic dragons that are made by other dragons, however one has been found in the wild, without having ever been created by another dragon

Remote: The only mechanicalwing to be found in the wild, she doesn’t like most other dragons and stays with her team at all times, even protecting Fanny and lightning from -unintelligible- when theyd angered her.

TV: A mechanicalwing made by Golf Ball. He never leaves the lab and often would hang out with Golf Club and use his belly screen to communicate with her.

Robot Flower: a mechanicalwing made by Basketball intended to keep Grassy company when she was gone

Mineralwings

dragons based off of minerals, hence the name

Ruby: A slightly see through mineralwing with small gems jetting out of her body, she glows when she experiences a strong positive emotion. She has a LOT of energy all the time and is seen running around goiky, she also often spends a MONTH flying to Yoyleland to grab herself some yoyle berries.

Rocky: A small mineralwing who loves running around, sometimes toppling into situations where he almost dies. He cant swim at all, but loves the water. So Golf Ball made him a kiddy pool. He has small rocks pokingout of his scales that he uses for self defense, rubbing against an attacker to scratch them, bad.

Loser: A Mineralwing with glass scales, however the only parts of him that are see through are his horns, spines, teeth, and claws. He never attacks people as he doesn’t want to damage himself. Hes very close to winner

Winner: a slightly squishy mineralwing, seemingly made out of a naturally occurring goo. They can squish their body into gaps most dragons cant fit in. Theyre very close to loser and is slightly eepy at all times

Needle: a grey mineralwing wity a pointy tail. She often has to prevent Naily from stabbing people with her tail point.

Naily: a smaller mineralwing, she looks very alike to her big sister. Grey body, spike on the end of her tail. Unlike her sister she loves stabbing people. Mainly her adoptive brother, Nickel.

TD WoF AU design: Owen. Last one for a bit, I made this one not that long ago and I have owed stuff to get done before I make any more.

Little bit of Information:

+MudWing/SeaWing hybrid

+He knows aquatic, he just can’t speak it too well because he doesn’t have all the glow scales

+Has gills for breathing underwater, he just has a harder time doing so because they’re a bit smaller

+Can still hold his breath for an hour if needed

+Good swimmer, loves swimming with his friends

+Shakes water off like a dog, much to the dismay of everyone

+Will eat almost anything, but if it’s rotten that’s a hard no

+He also won’t eat Scavengers, yucky

+He’s a pretty large dragon, definitely the Bigwings of his brothers

+When flying or swimming, he lets his smaller friends ride on his back if they get too tired

+Noah definitely takes advantage of that, not that Owen minds

+To Owen it feels like gaining a cat’s trust

[boltslutters]

Are all your ocs robots in some way? Or I guess what species would you classify them as (for the non tf ones)? 

Nope! They might look like it, but a large portion of my ocs are anthro dragons because my writing started as a wof au and it'll cherish those roots goddamnit. And some of the more robotic ones too aren't man-made, so it's like a flavor of biological. As for species, 90% of them are made up for this world specifically. Of the ones in the image, the non-man-made-robot and organic/semi-organic species are:

Illizyka's species isn't named, but she's a void-corrupted creature that uses a metal body to be able to interact and operate in any world as sol pleases.

Don't have much on this gal's species, but it's bug-like with a chitinous exoskeleton.

9H7R-A (Niesserae)'s species is the closest to organic machine I have. They are specifically lab-grown and designed to keep a highly mechanical and technically precise civilization running essentially forever.

I think this guy is mechanical, but he sure as shit doesn't stay that way for long.

Peyon is part of a race of mortals who compliment and worship their gods. They're small, mammalian, and are trait-dependent to which god/arcana they live in. Doll is their sentient doll based off an old sona of mine.

Don't remember this guy. Think their species is semi-mechanical

This guy is completely mechanical, but wasn't built by mankind, instead, by a self-sustaining mechanical race of quadrupeds I call Cyclers due to wheels they hold on their body magnetically. (there's actually lots of more ocs of this species, but they have distinct beaked snouts instead of strict triangle and I was not going to subject myself to more torture than I had too).

Rose, Thunder, & Torus are all members of a species of insanely powerful but insanely empathic species that runs the dominant governmental body of the main world. Torus was on a diplomatic mission, had too much of their old power and was too empathetic. Through accident, they became an amnesiac and through their empathetic powers, latched onto the memories and emotions of the local populous, and ended up believing they were a member of said species and would live on before someone figured out.

Killjoy, Toizon, Heron, Guziel, Datar, Banott, Stung, & Professor Tebya are all pat of a race known as Ermista or Ista depending on how badly I cringe at the name Ermista. They're a race of bug/bird-like bipeds who completely lack sexual dimorphism, live on a planet with a sun that hates them, and has a metamorphosis where they get their wings.

Of any race here, Ermista have the most lore and culture, such as most Ermista who live up north tend to live in small villages. Most know how to hand-weave fabric, as they make a flag they put into the ground to mark where they're cocooning (they go through metamorphosis unground), then carry that flag through the rest of their lives as a mark of identity and a sort of right of passage. They have different systems of magic and those systems interact differently with each other (although some are more fleshed out than others). They don't have a dominant sex and don't really exercise gender roles at all.

This one's a god. He could use a philosophy class about pain.

These two are creations of that god (called Paragons), designed to be perfect, never rot, and never suffer, and essentially lead the happy lives he never got to.

Ionize is also a member of that same species, just far, far into the future after Titatiaraum is dead and members of his perfect race have since either left, evolved, and otherwise altered.

I've almost forgotten everything but I do remember her species was pretty short compared to everyone else.

I'll save these because you mentioned them in another ask ;)

Another god, this one turned mortal willingly and got to watch his god-siblings tear themselves to shreds.

Part of a race of immortal beings that rot into animals, and grow back/heal into trees. I suppose this guy also needs to be included too

Yet another god, this sucker's puppeting a mechanical body though

Semnastica and Mourana are both members of the same species, Semnastica being male and Mourana being female. They're both quadrupeds and have powers because they hatched under blood moons because I made Semnastica when I was 14 at most. (I'm thinking about making these two's species (or Xulanium's) predecessors of the race Torus disguises as and later amnesias themselves into.

I THINK Salisun was supposed to be a fusion of a Cycler and something else organic, but he's also 90% aesthetic.

I've never figured out how to flesh out her species or Ouna herself, but they've got goo for hair and horns. That's coincidentally the only goo-species I've ever made. Huh.

Don't have many details on his species but they were somewhat civilized warrior-cats style and built little huts despite being quadruped.

No details on Mono, they're 100% aesthetic.

These two are the member of the same species and they're small and fluffy and have only one sex. They're also fluffy.

While Bypin is a pure machine, built by "man" and a full robot, I want to highlight them because they're one member of a race of centaur dragon tanks, who live on a planet in the same System as the Ermista, but closer to their hateful sun god that frequently sends down increasingly disturbing bird-angels to destroy all life on its planets (its planets are its children so its like fleas on your child). The race on that planet stays mostly underground until they developed the technology to remove their souls and place them in mechanical bodies they can use to fight back (Remizular is an example of a member of that race who was once organic, but later became tank (I lost their redesign that account deletion comes back to bite me in the ass)).

(Honestly, tank dragon centaurs are really cool FIGHT ME)

OKAY. I CAN'T ADD ANY MORE IMAGES SO THAT'S ALL YOU GET.

There are a few more species that don't have triangular faces and don't have characters in them as like, prey or purely animalistic species. I really need to focus on that side of it more wtf.

[jatlokgwo]

for @rainbow-strawberry-sherbert!!

i have no idea how to start this rip (dd= disassembly drone)

i useally say that am xiao and a dissasembally drone but im more concepts then anything else it goes

consepts: small flying dangerous flexable tail multiple forms/run like a dog and grab like a human watcher listener endless job to do

base: raptor birds (-> peregrine falcons) fennec foxes

2: demon (-> xiao is considered a demon adeptus and another word for dd is sky demon) feathery wings sharp teeth

3 (vaguely but there): otters finchs western dragons/wof sandwing scaramouche

"in view": adeptus xiao generic dissasembally/worker drone hybrid S (my kinsona) i like to show myself as a fennec like with the gifs

species by accosiation: ADEPTUS cat bees (-> friend called me minecraft bee coded) wolf dog theres a version of S thats uninfected any au

xiao is the minimum that you need to know to understand and before i had things to latch onto i jumped around sonas alot it was stressful and i only made things worse by interrogating myself witch is why i said to not think about it so hard and just draw whats fun =-= i found out im a drone by making a sona and then the sona feeling way more real then other sonas/ocs like chengcuo i was just bein silly ^^

sometime its also neurodivergent stuff (???) i cant understand facial expressions so i either exadurat them or dont really emote (i promise you that the xiaos are diffrent pictures)

colors and color coding is also important to me!!!!!!

am small and can fly but am kinda flightless when xiao sits down his ingame model doesnt reach the floor and dds are kinda tall but i look more like a worker drone with dd features and there both short to avrege humans as xiao i had wings and a bird form (can fly) but i lost them when a dream-god ripped of my wings and dds have retractable wings but copper 9 has a constant death storm happeneing that acts like a blizzard so id rather walk and do my silly jumps sjchd

its also a comfort thing!!! im a bird adeptus without wings or a bird form as a dd im a living wepon every even if the dream god tore them again dds can regen our heads i will have wings again in like a minute and if i really want to hen its awkward but of i angle it right there strong enough to break other drones caseing (my wings as xiao where normal feathers my life has also been almost constant trauma and i would pretend to use finchy looking wings to hide or hug myself and playing genshin was our escape we where still plural and we would listen to alot of genshin asmr and i think thats how i formed as a fictive) i think its also linked to my hyperfixation on md and my main comfort charater right now being a N (hes the yellow dd in the gif and my pfp :3)

ive also been gaslit and a defining part of being a dd is that you used to be a normal worker drone before you got infected with the absolute solver and it did some mlp infection stuff and messed with our memories theres a whole episode about it (cw for robot gore flashing lights anf 1 line of ablism against narcissists if you click the link its the episode) having anatonamy instead of wanting it is still kinda new to me theres a theme with them about how xiao was enslaved as a wepon for the dream-god and dds arnt supposed to be unique but xiao gets to be a person and the dds are unique anyways that i resonate alot with to its nice to see the systems that let the bad things happen be villians instead of when i tell people that the thing that hurt me was school and they try to find reasons why it was my fault

(hopfully this make sense brain wont give me anything else for now but if i think if something ill add it!! and if you have questions i can do my best to awnser them!!!!)
