#Wof snowflake

[resident-wof-expert]

Unsorted WOF thoughts part 75:

This took some thinking, but it checks out.

Snowflake and Snowfox fell in love.

Arctic was taken out of the picture, leaving Snowfox as the only heir.

Snowflake and Snowfox can't have biological children, and Snowfox wasn't an animus, so she couldn't have just created a child out of nothing like Jerboa did.

Diamond could have had other children, but I think Snowfox would've challenged her for the throne before she had the chance.

The only possible way that Snowfox and Snowflake could have had children was through adoption.

The entire reason the IceWings hate the NightWings is because they stole Arctic, an animus, from them, and they didn't have any more animus dragons ever again.

Diamond was also an animus, so if she had another child, that child would've passed on the animus gene.

If Snowfox had a biological child with someone else, that would've passed on the animus gene as well.

No more animus dragons in the IceWing royal family = Neither Diamond nor Snowfox had a biological child that could pass it on.

Snowfox being a big fat lesbian is the entire reason there are no more IceWing animus dragons left.

Conclusion: For the past 2,000 years, none of the members of the IceWing royal family have been direct descendants of the original royal family because Snowfox and Snowflake adopted. And that's the same reason why there haven't been any other animus dragons in the IceWing tribe.

Today's dragon is Snowflake.

I wanted to try some different stuff for wings, both in posing and in detail levels, soooo poor Snowflake seemed like a good fit

I actually winced when I drew it, soooo I think that means mission accomplished...? Still. Ow.

Fandom opinion thing from a few weeks ago, some of the opinions aren't really accurate cuz I haven't reread the whole series in a long time, just random books here and there.

("liked by everyone but me" is Sky, but I'm not sure if that's really true for tumblr. Even in the fandom space I came from that sentiment was already starting to fizzle out and there's been a respectable amount of sky slander recently.)

also, all of the dragonet ships (ex: cliff x auklet, as displayed above) are weird and I don't understand them.

IceWing Royals Plothole (and my solution.)

This plothole happens just before DarkStalker’s time. How did the NightWings steal Animus Magic? Isn’t it genetic? Snowfox could pass it on?! Here’s what I think:

At one point, when she was a young dragonet, Snowfox walked in on Diamond performing a second spell illegally.

Diamond was furious, but instead of killing the confused dragonet outright, she decided on a plan that would benefit the both of them-

Diamond would have a backup heir in case her son, Arctic, died. (Diamond hated and resented Arctic for having the chance at Animus greatness that Diamond ruined with her mediocre gift.)

Snowfox would be adopted by Diamond’s sister, Pristine, giving her access to the throne. Even if she wasn’t a ‘real’ royal, Diamond liked her better than Arctic.

Snowfox’s parents were killed in an ‘avalanche’.

Snowfox hated Diamond and wanted to be queen from that moment onwards, remembering everything Diamond hoped she’d forget.

She also disliked Arctic, thinking he was every bit as bad as his mother.

Feeling sorry for Arctic’s fiancé, she started a casual conversation with her at a party; and, (against her better judgment), fell hard for her.

Arctic’s fiancé, Snowflake, hated Arctic as much as Snowfox.

Snowfox explained the situation.

Arctic ran away, a plot orchestrated by Snowfox and Snowflake, who are wonderful evil lesbians btw and I love them.

then they ruled the Ice Kingdom after overthrowing Diamond and being adorable partners in crime and girlfriends forever <3

Snowflake’s sister took over when both queens died (peacefully), but neither of the families had animus magic, so the gene was dead.

by the way, Snowflake knew about Snowfox being adopted, but it only made her love her evil gf more because the less she has to be connected to Arctic the better. (Like Sundew and Nettle and Willow kinda.)

Wings of Fire thingy

I loved doing this, it was really fun. I couldn’t fit everyone I wanted to, I may do this again with more dragons, I just thing the book series is pretty neat. Some notes about the designs and the characters in general:

DARKSTALKER: I hate him, but I think he is quite interesting, I want him to die in very horrible ways, and to study him under a microscope. Regarding his design, I tried to make him green because of Foeslayer, and also wanted to nod to Arctic with the diamond shaped scales, instead of the teardrop ones. Also i gave him huge pupils, to make him more creepy i guess.

GLORY: I just think she’s neat, I didn’t change much about her design, since its pretty recognizable and cool. Her book is my favorite one out of the first arc ones, I really like when she first entered the rainforest, she’s just badass overall. Glory honestly slayed the whole book and I kinda hate how Tui gave her a love interest, i just feel like it wasn’t necessary and it just annoyed me lol.

PERIL: I honestly kinda hated her at first, but she’s one of my favorites now. Her story is very interesting and I think that her whole character growth journey is very endearing. Her design was always pretty cool, But i added some more light blue accents because i think they just bring the design together better.

ANEMONE: She is just neat to me, and i really like her design, mostly because of her colors. I always imagined her with glasses for some reason, I didn’t add them because I don’t know how to draw them lol. Something I didn’t like about her character, was that the only reason she had animus powers was because of Turtle, i really hated that.

SNOWFLAKE: I just related to her, like quite a whole lot. I would like to see more of her, I feel like they could do more with her character. I gotta be honest, i hate drawing icewings, they all just look the same to me.

SNOWFALL: I really liked her book, probably my favorite out of arc 3, I really liked her story and personality, her interactions with Lynx were also very entertaining, her warm tones are based on the cover of her book, i know its just the lightning but i felt like it was something worth nodding to.

FREEDOM: She was a very entertaining antagonist and the only reason i like Luna’s book to be honest…. She’s pretty tragic and I find her interactions and whole dynamic with Cottonmouth really funny. I felt inclined to give her antennae like the silkwings but ultimately decided against it. Her personality reminds me of myself and we have same vibe.

PYRITE / HAILSTORM: They are just… tragic, And I crave for more of her story, its just left unfinished (at least that what it feels like to me) I just need to know what happened to her after the whole duel with Winter, I need to know what happened, Its just- DCBUDHCJSKSMLX.

Unsorted WOF thoughts part 46:

I can't appreciate Snowflake and Snowfox enough. Because their first time meeting was the only time I've seen Tui portray like. Sexual tension. For good reason, considering most other protagonists in the series are children, or at most, just turned adults.

Like. The more they talked with each other and discussed their mutual goals, the more I was like "These two are 100% FUCKING and they haven't even met yet."

@snowy-flakes Watching the northern lights! They love the cold and high places, so no better way to admire an aurora borealis than in the top of a mountain!

Hope you get to go back to the mountains soon! maybe you'll be able to see an aurora borealis when you get there

Decided to fill out a template from @/falling-skyzz I feel normal about . The dragons ! List of characters & design & dynamic thoughts under the cut <3

Also If anyone else fills out thus template feel free to send me the post,, I would love to see other people filling this out!!! I love templates !!

Secretkeeper & Moon • I understand theres a lot of reasonable hate for Secretkeeper but!!! I find her & moon to be a very fascinating pair! To make a long ass thought short, I think Secretkeeper is the embodiment of “product of her environment & deeply traumatize & projecting”. I think she genuinely really loves moon but obviously expresses that through being “”protective””. But I think shes genuinely a character with a capacity for change & realizing the autonomy Moon has over her own powers. Also from the perspective of Moon I think her arc around her relationship with her mom could be really interesting, especially as Secretkeepers authority becomes challenged in Moons life & she has to confront the bullshit her mother has put her through. Overall very very interesting pair I think about them a lot.

Design Note: Secretkeeper is duller in color than Moon & has less stars due to lack of moon light on the island! Also the scales around her mouth are almost completely black, making her mouth barely visible, giving her the name “Secretkeeper” as she “has no mouth to tell others secrets.”

Tsunami & Starflight • Just one of my fav siblings! This specific illustration is from the Arena Scene in Dragonet Prophesy! I really really love Tsu & Starflights dynamic of looking up to eachother & their development together just. So neat!

Design Note: Starflight has very few constellation marks in this illustration as he hasnt spent much time under moonlight quite yet!

Shark & Abalone • One of my more out-there ships! I based this on the thought that Shark was once close with Abalone (cough. Husbands.) and that relates to why he was willing to give Tortoise a lunch-break from watching the eggs. He already saw someone close to him die from being overworked to watch the clutch, he didn’t want to watch another dragon die from his sisters selfishness. I could write an essay on these two I swear

Deisgn Note: Shark is based on a tiger shark & abalone is based on real abalones! hes one of my fav designs here

Six-Claws & Ostrich • He’s just a sweet dad! the little we see of him he seems to really love her & vice-versa <3 they’re just neat

Design Note: Six-Claws is based on a king cobra & is a specific sub-“species” of hooded Sandwings ! Burn found his hood mutation & six-claws super interesting

Tamarin & Pike • My fav background friendship! They’re just fun. I like Pike just chillin out around Tamarin & describing flower colors to her to the best of his ability (she just likes to hear him ramble about a shared interest)

Design Notes: I updated how I draw Tamarins eyes to properly resemble a blind-born dragon ! Also Pike’s deisgn got some yellow in it and I really like it <3

Whiteout & Thoughtful • I just think they’re neat!! They just seem like a sweet pair love them

Design Note: none really! Just experimenting with a rando Thoughtful design that I tossed together for my “ships tier list”

Tsunami • Its just her :) my fav dragon <3!!! I definitely dont think she upholds the “princess” title once she gets older, her only link to the throne is by Coral insisting monthly visits but Tsu otherwise wouldn’t be any interesting in royal life I would imagine

Design Note: Shes caught a waaururrghh something im going bonkers I cant remember what fish that is and my reference photo seems to have dissipated into the cosmos

Anemone • I LOVE HER. SO MUCH ! Anemone haters BACK OFF!!!! Her relationship to her powers is so fucked man. Something you’d think would give her power & control is just a key by which others use to manipulate and abuse her like . Man :( shes literally never had any autonomy over her own identity & intermingled her powers into her identity So Much only for that aspect of herself to also be revealed to be a facade for someone else’s desires like. GUH I love her so much I hope shes having a good day I dont care what anyone says she deserves to be a brat and I support her for it

Design Note: none really! The stars in her talons are just metaphorical though

Snowflake & Snowfox • THE OGS!!!!!! MY FAVORITE PROBLEMATIC LESBIANS <3 Ahhh remember in the early days when they were considered the #1 most problematic ship because they were gay and also evil. I love the evil lesbians so much they’re so shitty sorry Darkstalker Snowfox should’ve been queen I would’ve loved to see that go down it’d be so silly

Design Notes: Snowfox is based on an arctic fox shedding into their summer coat!! I know its p . Away from canon descriptors of her but it was sm fun to illustrate so shhh <3 Snowflake is just grey & blueish per-canon but shes sooo fun. love her.

Okay thats all here are the individual illustrations now !!!!! Because why not !!! If these aren’t transparent its all over
