May I get a copinglink moodboard? It's for my OC/rainwing linktype! Image below

I need wings >:( Sky too pretty I wanna get a better look >:(

[ferrodraconic]

Am i dragonkin or just link??? the fact that it's not innerworld physical is really confusing for me. How do non-physical non/alterhumans figure it out.

I mean do i want to be a dragon? hell yea. *am i one*? i wish/(yes??) but also technically no, i'm fine looking human in headspace for now. To be determined, i guess.

Any other dragons or membranous-winged things watch the delicate ribs of umbrellas with both fascination and envy as a child or was it just me

Hi there, I'm an otherlinker, and I've been considering a dragon linktype, and thus was hoping you might have some advice for being more draconic based on your own experiences? Sorry if this is a weird ask, and feel free to ignore it if you want, I really don't mind, I just want to get some advice since there isn't really any resources about voluntary draconic identities out there.

Oh hey, grey friend with sunglasses!

Unfortunately, my draconity isn't voluntary, but might I point you in the direction of @sarcophobia? It is an otherlinker, and so may be able to give better and help you find resources. @linklocus also has a few resources on otherlinking that you might find helpful!

It's hard to really give catch-all advice, since dragons are so incredibly varied in how they look, act, and think. Are you wanting a western fire-and-fang dragon identity, or would you seek a more eastern-style water-and-wind approach? Or perhaps something in between, or not related to any at all? The things you do to create and connect with that identity will change depending on your answer.

As far as what I do to connect to my dragon kintypes, it depends. Hiking is a big one, as well as art, food, and consuming content related to dragons are all common ones. For my Aether dragon side, I have collections of items I love (books, instruments, crystals, tarot cards, etc.); for my Eastern side, I meditate, and step outside when the weather is inclement.

Feel free to send another ask if you wanted something more specific; otherwise, please check out the other bloggers I linked; they might be able to help you more than I can.

Wind at your back, friend!

Felt silly, so I made a gay dragon flag. If you're a gay dragon, this is the flag for you. This is for dragonkin, dragon therians, dragon fictionkin, dragonhearted folks, dragonlinkers, dragon fictives, and other types of draconic beings. Enjoy!

i want to share this au i've had in the back of my mind for awhile now

basically Tenma and Yamato are half brothers ( i don't know which parent they would share) , i have no idea how they found out that they were related to eachother i just know that they have mix feelings about this because of the whole fifth sector thing

(also love your art)

ohh that sounds interesting! it would definitely bring an extra emotional layer on top of everything else :> I think it would be Tenma who tries to get closer at first, Yamato being more distant and probably just trying to ignore the new situationship. I don't think they'd get overly familiar, but there could be a good ol' sibling rivalry coming out of it!

(and ah thanks!! <3 I'm happy that falling back in to the inazuma hole has made me draw this much again!)

It's the dragonlinker anon, just wanted to thank you for the help, and ask a couple follow-up questions if that's alright? Do you have any tips/tutorials for dragon vocals? You mentioned "throat-clicking" which sounds like it might be a noise I've been trying and failing to make lol. Also, less of an advice thing, but how do you feel about quadrobics in relation to your own draconity? Personally as much as I want to walk on all fours my body is just not proportioned the way it should be for that

Of course! Glad it was helpful.

Assorted Noises Posts:

On clicks of various kinds

The bullshit tongue-click that's a part of my name (R-ani, except I have no way to transcribe it properly lmao)

From @/dreamingdragonkin, a bunch of assorted noises and their meanings + an explanation on roaring

A recording of various noises of mine

A recording of me hurring, unvoiced, since I kind of skipped over it in the above link

An explanation of throat-clicking, complete with diagram

Bonus explanation of growling high up in the throat (as opposed to the hurr, which is much lower):

Growling - there are a million ways to do a growl, but the way I do it I can sustain it for a lot longer than hurring, and it takes a lot longer to wear my throat out (I can only hurr so many times in a row before my throat starts hurting). It does sacrifice some of the low pitch, however, since it’s higher in the throat and thus has a smaller chamber of air to vibrate. It’s a uvula motion, not involving the vocal or vestibular folds at all, and it’s basically closing up the back of the throat as much as you can and then forcing air through so the uvula is forced to rapidly vibrate/open and close the passageway, creating a kind of rattling/hissing growl. Tense up the muscles in the floor of your mouth/jaw to accomplish that. If you put a hand on your thyroid cartilage (Adam’s apple, the hard bump you can feel most prominently when you run a hand down the front of your throat), you should feel that move upward as it partially closes off the airway, like it does when you swallow, except it stays elevated instead of dropping back down into place. Then exhale while holding that, and it should produce that rattling growl sound. (I find it helps if I snarl/pull my lips back to bare my fangs teeth, possibly because it helps pull the submandibular muscles tense.)

Bonus crocodilian noises for your enjoyment, because Big Dragon Feels for the me

And personally, I'm a big fan of quadrobics/bear crawl, though I can't maintain it for terribly long. It feels very natural and very awkward all at once because of how bad human proportions are for it - it's not just you, humans just aren't built for it. It gets easier with practice, as you might imagine.

[ferrodraconic]

Man so i'm technically a factive of an old friend the body used to have in high school; and it's so strange as an experience. I am him with a different name and altered interests, but i also have fake memories of his. so to speak. And am also gay and a dragon, which safe to say he was not.

I'm the anon from the post you reblogged from @/infinitedraconity, and I'm really glad you responded! Tbh I actually wanted to send you an ask but you had anon off 😅. Anyway, i guess I'm looking for advice on how to 'choose' what instincts I have? I actually tried to link a dragon as my first linktype, but it didn't go far bc I didn't have much to build off of, due to how varried dragons are. All I know rn is that I have connections to water, esp. Freshwater, and the western 6-limbed build! -🐊

Yeah, sorry for the delay, I've been in the throat of severe executive dysfunction these past few days.

Once again, I first must warn you that what works for me may not work for you, and certain concepts I'm trying to convey are hard for me to put into words. If you need clarification on anything you're more than welcome to ask for it.I'd recommend beginning by doing some introspection, put serious thought into what sort of being you as you exist now would be like as a dragon. Honestly I'm not sure that you're 100% free to pick your links- linking something that is entirely unlike you will give your mind nothing to work with and will become very difficult. That is why I am a black dragon with many catlike traits, it's not something I really "designed" when linking but rather what had the greatest energetic resonance with my self-image. This is actually a place where the widely varied nature of dragons will be a boon- there's really no WRONG way to be a six limbed, aquatic dragon. If a form and identity just FEELS like it's both a dragon and you, then it is.

And then, seek what traits of yours are already present (your water connection in this case), and mentally begin seeing them/conceptualizing them as your draconic traits. For instance, I'm an almost compulsive collector, I have very catlike body language, and due to my psychological polymorphy I often experience phantom traceries of talon and wing (the physical aspect here is something I'd personally recommend hypnotism, subliminals, and binaural beat meditation for if you do not currently experience them). Weave these aspects of yourself nto your desired self-image, remind yourself as often as possible that you are doing this because you are a dragon doing dragon things, and once this becomes automatic you may be pleasantly surprised as more draconicity reveals itself naturally.

Related, practice a form of mindfulness. Consider your environment. What things would your dragonself be paying the most attention to? How would you react to your surroundings? What would you be thinking?

Also, don't be ashamed to discover if you have hard limits on what link factors you can set. For instance, I cannot become a true extrovert, my brain just straight up isn't wired for it. If it quits being an enjoyable, validating experience to force your 'links and begins to become a source of stress, you need to try a different approach.

Write yourself like a book and most importantly, let yourself relax and enjoy the process.

A drawing (on paper this time)

For dragonkin, dragonlink, dragonkith and dragonhearted!✨(credits required)

tips for giving an old parchment effect to your creations:

Mix brown and orange paint with water.

Test on a separate paper: if the color obtained is like the color in the center of the drawing in the photo, it's good!

If the color is too light, add more paint, and if it is too dark, add water.

Paint the entire support with this mixture

Add a little paint to the rest of the mixture and paint the sides with (blend with your finger)

Tear the sides a little for more realism.

Finally, add a little black paint to the tears and spray a few drops of paint all over the sheet.

Done!✨
