🚁 Skye Appreciation Week 2025 🚁

🐾 The time has come for our beloved aviator pup! I know, most of us grew tired of seeing her being literally shoved into any and every rescue for a long while, being treated as the token girl of the group, during a time they felt they needed female rep. But then I had a friend of mine who's hyperfixated in aircrafts say "Skye is my favorite because she's the flying pup. It could be anyone else, whoever has the airplanes will be my favorite" and it made me realize just how much we DON'T KNOW about her. A lot of times, she's just there! So what does she has aside from wearing pink, liking cute small animals, flying and being afraid of eagles? It's time we take over and think about it, what would make her more likeable for you? How would you develop her more, give her more depth? What are your favorite things about her? You can join this event by posting anything about these prompts/ideas relating to Skye from September 1st to September 7th. The more, the better!

🩷 It can be artworks, fanfiction, edits, screenshots, writing about her related to the day’s prompt, etc. The only things not allowed are NSFW and/or to use AI generated art or writing. Let’s use our own creativity!

🦴 If you decide to make more than one post for a day, you don’t need to follow the prompt for all of them. You can post one thing with the prompt and the others on that same day are free real estate lol This pup's gotta fly!

🪽 Remember to use the hashtags “#Skye Week 2025” and/or “#SkyeWeek2025” (with or without spaces, depending on where you post your art, Instagram can only get no-spaced hashtags, for example) Feel free to DM me on @self-indulgent-paw-patrol if you have any questions!

🚁 LET’S TAKE TO THE SKY! 🪽

(my tumblr is acting up so I’m gonna have to put Skye’s message here as well)

Happy birthday Chase! *blushing intensely* I just want to say thank you for being a pawsome friend and always being there to support everyone no matter what. You are strong, caring, and kind. You’re the best and I hope you have a pawsome day! 🩷

ps: I have a little something for you that I dropped off in your pup house 👀 (the surprise was some blue rope toys to play fetch and tug of war, also a candlelit dinner nicely set with some peanut butter pup treats served)

Also blushing when he saw her, Chase wagged his tail and grinned. “Aww… that really means a lot to me, Skye! I try my best to be there for everyone, and I’m really happy to know I do a good job, heh…”

When Chase went back to his pup-house that evening, he was quite surprised to find the additional gifts… but especially the dinner.

“Wow…”

New look! 🎀🤍

(In other words, the mod has a bow obsession so she decides to put some on Skye and decide she’s so coquette. Sooo what do we think??)

Chase and Skye Headcanons

🚔 x 🚁

(I swear, these two are my OTP AHHHHH!)

-Before Skye got her copter, she used to be a passenger in Chase’s cruiser when going for missions.

-When Skye was first adopted by Ryder, Chase was extra welcoming to her and Marshall used to tease him about liking her. He would deny it before he came to terms that he actually had feelings for her.

-When she needs to vent, she usually goes to Chase. He is a really good listener and a good shoulder to cry on.

-When she’s tired, Skye lies about not being tired but Chase can see right through her and won’t fall for it.

-Same thing applies when he suspects something is bothering her. She lies about being fine but he can see right through that something is bothering her.

-He fell first, but she fell harder.

-He is of course protective of everyone in the Paw Patrol, but with Skye he is wayyy more protective of her. He will do anything in his power to make sure she’s safe.

-Chase shows interest in getting better at Pup Pup Boogie and at least once a week, Skye gives him Pup Pup Boogie lessons. She’s impressed with how quickly he picks up.

-Skye doesn’t enjoy waking up early, but Chase does. If he feels like she’s sleeping for too long, he goes straight to her pup house or wherever she’s taking a nap to kiss her give her licks, and shower her with compliments to ease the waking up process for her.

Hey, Skye, I was just wondering if this song seemed good at your interest since you're a fan at flying helicopters.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kn6-c223DUU&pp=ygUJYWlycGxhbmVz

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=E6F9nD4LYCQ&pp=ygUUYWlycGxhbmVzIGp1c3QgZGFuY2U%3D

It's kinda dumb for Tumblr to not accept video links off from Youtube, so you may have to highlight it and open the link manually. They're both the song Airplanes from B.o.B, with one link being the official song, and one being a Just Dance version.

Hi Brian, I actually really like the song and it’s not just because I enjoy flying but I like the message it sends too. The dance looks really cool too, although I wish there was a Pup Pup Boogie version of this because I’d be more than excited to learn it.

[taking-to-the-skye]

🍄favorite song?

Hmmm that’s a good question……definitely either Lover or Paper Rings by Taylor Swift. I just really like her music in general too. Aly calls me a Swiftie, which I don’t know what it means.

Storytime With Skye

too rough, take it easy next time (1030 words) by groovyaly [AO3]

archiveofourown.org

Hi all, I'm back and I've missed you! ᡣ𐭩

Here is a link to a storytime (written by mod) about how Zuma and I were wrestling and it didn't go so well. Since then, we still wrestle here and there but he's been going easy on me.  I've been working out more often and trying to get stronger so he won't have to do that anymore. Hope you enjoy :)  

[taking-to-the-skye]

Skye and Zuma Bestie Headcanons 🚁⚓️

-They are always very sassy and feisty with each other.

-They always keep count of how many bets they’re done and who’s won which bet.

-They wrestled one time which was clearly a bad idea as Skye ended up getting hurt, Zuma felt bad and they both agreed to never wrestle again. (I plan to write a fic about this)

-They always have prank wars. Zuma always wins, but Skye is starting to get really good.

-Skye is obsessed with the movie Titanic and Zuma finds it funny and roasts her so hard for it.

-Despite all the teasing and messing around, they are of course best friends who care for each other and they always remain careful in case the other’s feelings are hurt. This is something they both agreed to communicate in case that ever happened.

Happy birthday, Skye! Hope I wasn't too late to celebrate, it's still 9:41 around my time, so it's still Valentine's Day here. I went and decided to bring these pet friendly chocolates for you and your friends to share. 😁

Thank you, Brian! You’re not too late so don’t worry. 😁 Also, thank you so much for the treats!! Also pet friendly chocolates? Love them already! I’ve always wanted to try chocolate but Ryder said it was always poisonous for us pups. Can’t wait to try them and then I’ll go see if my friends want some too. I would highly recommend these.

Thank you thank you thank you!

//Even though today is the day of Skye’s headcanon birthday, I’ll extend it as a birthday weekend until Sunday just for some extra celebration time and more people to send in stuff if interested :)

[taking-to-the-skye]

//Hi all, mod here and Skye is asleep. It’s midnight and in honor of headcanon birthday, I feel this video this the appropriate video for today to start off this special day.

[taking-to-the-skye]

//Hello, mod here again!

I have written a little birthday fic for Skye’s headcanon birthday on Friday! This chapter is up a little early and I’ll post a new chapter hopefully on her headcanon birthday.

Hope you enjoy!

[taking-to-the-skye]

hey their Skye right? Name’s William, Liam for short now I’m wondering if you have any knowledge on trains if not then I’m your engine

Hi Liam, yes I’m Skye and it’s nice to meet you!

Personally I have no knowledge of trains and it’s not really my thing. I have more knowledge about any vehicle that flies (helicopters, airplanes, private jets, etc).

[taking-to-the-skye]

Following up to this: https://www.tumblr.com/taking-to-the-skye/774442212503257088/in-the-episode-pups-save-skye-am-i-the-only-one, what did it feel like to have that possible/sudden epiphany the same day you got it?

Hmmm, it was little frustrating at first because I want to do as much as I can on my own. Then I realize sometimes getting some assistance is okay because in this case when there’s a crazy snowstorm, I would be doing myself more harm than good if I kept going on my own without help.

So I basically had to give myself a reality check.

*Skye giggles*

This is actually a really interesting question. Thanks for asking!

Feel free to drop some questions you have that are appropriate to answer ofc!

[taking-to-the-skye]

//Hi everyone, Skye’s asleep so mod is taking over until she wakes up. She’s tired from today’s rescue.

I want to take some time to do a little self promo and announce that I’m on AO3! My user is mamajulieta (yes, I created my account when Encanto was getting lots of hype lol)

I’ve been an Encanto fanfic writer for a long time and I’ve been wanting to start writing again so here’s an Encanto x PAW Patrol crossover!

[taking-to-the-skye]

Just to clear something up regarding Skye’s headcanon birthday!

Hello, mod here again! So I mentioned there was a surprise planned. Skye still has no clue and no suspicion of anything.

Well, there’s not necessarily a party with a specific time due to different time zones so it would last all day.

Some ways to show up would be the following:

-sending a message in the ask box wishing her a happy birthday

-sending/posting art under the hashtag (#happy headcanon birthday skye) if you want to.

-doing an rp revolving around her birthday which can be set at the party or before the party. I have a plot planned about that.

Anything is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

[taking-to-the-skye]

In the episode "Pups Save Skye", am I the only one that kinda noticed that you might've had a sudden epiphany vision from the past with you needing to be rescued from a snowstorm, just like the snowstorm in "Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie" with you as a pup trying to chase after Ryder, but you got tired and too cold to move anymore, then found you, bringing you home with him, but you've never realized it? This is just out of sudden curiosity, by the way. 🤔🤔

From my understanding of what you mean, I don’t think you’re the only one. I think Ryder too might’ve noticed but I’ve never asked him or talked to him about it. Maybe I should.

Snowstorms are heavy and I’m a smaller pup so that’s never a good mix since that causes certain problems for Cockapoos concerning our fur. Pups like myself have a harder time walking in the snow during a snowstorm since my legs touch the snow surface and it builds up so I have a hard time navigating it. Of course, I try my best despite my size until I get tired.

I don’t always realize it because I have the mindset of “I can do it and I got this” until my body tires out and I just want to rest my eyes for a bit.

Hope that answers your question! :)
