When looking for a “dragon book”, are you looking for something with a main dragon character or a side dragon character?

Ep 3 AU in which Evan succeeded on his death save but lost his arm, so K made him a prosthesis while the group was still on Galamanis

Not to be a hater but there are very few books that justify being 600-1000+ pages long.

Once more thinkin about this Prompt/AU

And I decided to sketch the level 1 forms the team (& Ellie) have along with sketches of their lvl 200+ Forms. I do believe Klarion is having a blast with his new friends and the Young Justice Team is going to have some Trauma from not knowing this is a Game.

Tucker: Lvl 1 Cat | Sam: Lvl 1 Sprout | Valerie: Lvl 1 Golem | Danny: Lvl 2 Dragon Egg | Ellie: Lvl 1 Celestial Snakelett

(Click for higher quality) Also they are all now Mountain Sized or Larger. Also pondering them all having 3 stages to their bossfights. Second stages is when they start using more magic & less "minions" and final stage is when shit hits the fan & the surroundings get Wrecked. Like Tucker summoning a literal storm & getting lightning charged, or Sam fully emerging from the caves, or Valerie unearthing herself and the team realizing the entire dungeon-city was On Her Back.

Controversial opinion: i don't like the "dragon claims the rider" the show is heavily pushing. I don't like how it justifies Targaryen exceptionalism by making dragonriders in fact super special snowflakes for something inherent within them. Compare that to the book where we had Nettles who had to put in a consistent effort and ingenuity to claim Sheepstealer and even Dany who had to do actual human sacrifice to get her three dragons. Yeah, you need Targ heritage to make the dragons obey your commands, but a dragon falling into Addam's and Ulf's laps without any active effort on their part to claim Seasmoke or Silverwing ruins the metaphor of dragons as a great power that comes with a heavy and terrible cost and reduces them to......horse girl fantasy creatures.

Is it verging on tinfoil hat territory to laugh about how the egg Aegon II failed to hatch after murdering Rhaenyra was purple?

Or could it be an... easter egg?

though i'm realizing more and more that the thing that bothers me about this kind of new adult fantasy book is that it wants you to believe the worldbuilding is deep and interesting, but it is almost certainly always built on aesthetics rather than serving the story or setting. the thing about fantasy is that you don't need to explain everything, but you should have an idea of how it works, logically.

i think every day about how e.arthsea has a clearly defined magic system, and that magic touches everyone at every level across the entire world. you see how it affects all the different cultures we encounter but we're only ever approaching it from the main characters' perspectives, which is almost always skewed by how magic functions in their part of the world. there is still a lot that isn't explained until later books, or even at all, and it feels both coherent and mysterious. it can be haunting; it can take the most powerful characters by surprise.

i think every day about how my first time through the f.arseer trilogy, i didn't even clock the two kinds of magic as magic: they were so seamlessly integrated into the narrator's story that it was just a fact of the world for me. we learn about the mysteries of both as fitz does, and the full consequences of using both are explored.

you don't have to tell us everything, you don't have to take either of these approaches. but if you want your worldbuilding to be engaging you need to know how it fucking works, and most importantly, you need to respect the setting you're in fully. sometimes that means understanding boring stuff like the economy. like language. like what does and doesn't exist based on climate or culture. that's really important too. commit. commit!!! give into the cringe of high fantasy and all the downsides of an imperfect world that punishes not only the bad guys, but the heroes as well. i dare you

Is there such a thing as paternity/maternity leave when Pokémon hatch from eggs?

With humans, we get like a few months off just to take care of the baby and to be familiar and bond but whats the case with Pokémon?

Oh, and uhh... Do you guys have any rival teams? Friendly rivals? Actually, hostility, or is it just good fun? (Sorry to put two questions into one:

"Yeah! Well, sorta."

"It's really unhealthy for baby 'mons to hatch without a parent nearby. It should be the parent whose species they share, but a child can live a good, healthy life even with their primary attachment being to their other parent or parents."

"Ideally, you want to have all parents nearby as the baby hatches, and the same-species or direct parent nearby as often as possible while the child is still in its egg. So usually, parents will be given some extra time off to be with the egg and share their magic with it, so that it grows properly."

"I uh- I didn't know that when Koda was in her egg. I wanted to be with her, obviously, but I- I couldn't just ignore my work."

"I was away when she hatched. I could feel it in my soul when it happened, like a tug on my magic, but I didn't get there in time. I feel pretty awful about it."

"But Lucas was with her when she hatched. So... she was all right. Nowadays, she can be sort of anxious and a bit clingy with us."

"But fundamentally, she's okay! She developed a really strong bond with Lucas, and she's always been able to be her strange, starry-eyed little self without issue. And I spent a lot of time with her as she grew up."
