Happy pride month, please remember to include aromantic on your pride-themed adopts!! (also, please. use the ACTUAL aromantic flag, it takes two seconds of googling..)

G'morning all humans and those who aren't quite! My computer's been malfunctioning lately so it might be replaced soon <3 If that happens however, my wattpad account will almost certainly become completely inactive, as I don't have the password anymore and I don't have access to the account's email. (Meaning I won't be able to log in)
          
          So that's that, and I'll miss y'all if it happens soon! (It probably won't happen for a while though, if it even does happen!)

This has been bothering me since I realized it ten minutes ago but.. Can RainWings change the color of their horns? Their abilities were described as only being able to change the color of their scales - but they can also change the color of their eyes, and have been described as being (basically) invisible, to all except for tribe-raised RainWings. Do- do their horns count as scales? I can't find anything on this, does anyone know the answer???

athenathepython-

@Torch_Blazing I thought I remembered a scene like that, thank you! That's pretty interesting that they would choose to call the horns part of the scales, does that mean that the horns are like.. covered in scales? Or are they just vaguely grouped with them, because they also have the same color-changing properties as the scales? (I've never learned much about how a chameleon's scales work, so sorry if this is inaccurate, though it's mainly speculation)

Read the third one again, also when she’s doing her Icewing disguise

Probably, as in the graphic novels glory can become fully invisible, including her horns. And in the graphic novel, her horns change to dark purple when she’s called “Queen Scarlets art”

I think that one of the best pieces of advice I ever read was instead of saying "Sorry", try saying "Thank you"
          
          "Sorry for making you help me with this, I'm such a burden lol" goes to "Thank you so much for helping me out with this!" or if you are saying sorry, as in "Sorry I'm late!" you can follow it up with "Thank you for waiting for me!"
          
          Another good piece of advice I once read was to not apologize too much. If you do, it starts to make the other person feel awkward and also like they have to say that it's okay, even if it's not.
          
          Just some memories, though I recommend trying to not use self-deprecating language, when you use more positive language (even in an ironic tone) you start to develop an odd sort of self-confidence. It's basically how I got mine!
          
          Anyways, thanks for reaching the bottom of this post, hope you have a good day! 
          Fun fact: Sponges (the animal) are found in many large bodies of water, and are found around the globe! Freshwater sponges exist, and some sponges gain their color by forming a symbiotic relationship with a type of algae. 
          How do I know this? I read an entire wikipedia article and multiple other articles instead of writing. (I also have a limited understanding of how sponges reproduce and eat!)

@ApricotTheRainWing I get that, I feel like I've done something very similar in the past-

@athenathepython- The other day, I thanked someone for leaving the bathroom at school. She didn't hold the door (as there weren't any) or anything, she just walked past me out the door.

@ApricotTheRainWing That's fair! It took me a while to get used to it!

Polar Bear is the best dragon in all of WOF, I accept no criticism but I do accept suggestions.

athenathepython-

@ApricotTheRainWing yeah that's fair. Bumblebee was my favorite dragon for a while, but now it's Polar Bear for reasons beyond comprehension :) Mink and Auklet are also pretty great, rhough I haven't reread the books with Peacemaker or Cliff in them in a while.

@athenathepython- The five dragonets of wholesomeness (Auklet, Cliff, Peacemaker, Bumblebee, and Mink) are better, but to each their own.

Hi! Does anyone have any wof fic recommendations? 
          I'm specifically looking for stories focusing on the found-family dymanic of the DoD or Jade Winglet, or for stories focused on platonic relationships (over romantic ones) I'm cool with stories both with and without canon characters, so really if you have any recs I'd love to hear them! Have a great day y'all!

You deserve to have your proper pronouns and name said. I'm sorry if there's someone in your life who won't use them. 
          
          If you want, I can use them for you? (Though I'm cis & I don't know how to properly use all neopronouns) You deserve to hear your name and pronouns said. I hope you have/had a good day!

I feel like the wings of fire fandom needs to get a lot better about talking about the issues in the series. Yes, it's a series about dragons, but there are still a good amount of things that need to be addressed about it.
          
          If you want some examples of the things that I've found need to be addressed, please ask! I really wasn't aware of a large amount of these problems until recently, when I was looking through a tumblr blog (@/wingsoffireconfessions) (For the most relevant/important things, I would suggest the racism tag)
          
          If I'm wrong and people /are/ addressing these issues, that's great! Please don't stop, it's really important, especially in a series aimed at the age range it is. This is just about my personal experiences with this fandom.
