@KitKatJo I enjoyed my visit to your lair, regardless of what you call a mess ;)
Welcome back though!
I 100% get how some people, like you, prefer minimal gear/letting dragon genes shine through. My words about that didn't really mean "she's not to my preferences" so much as "Oh, I hope this person isn't disappointed that I picked a dragon wearing just an accent and nothing else." I understand people who get disappointed about it too, even though I qualify as neither. Dragons wearing nothing at all frequently get stars from me too.
In her case though, minimalist works so very well, it definitely lets someone like me really appreciate how perfectly that accent blends into orca cherub like they're one cohesive image that belongs together.
I probably go over the line on too much clothes sometimes + expensive genes, but I don't mind when other people don't find it attractive. I'm primarily dressing them for me anyway and I enjoy looking at my own dragon garden lol. I have, however, also seen people who turn dragons into what looks like a messy pile of clothes (I've done this to a few dragons in my project folders from time to time - mostly because I was messing around with a single piece I liked but had no one else for and just got to a point where I'm like...well none of this is working and I'm too lazy to remove the clothes right now lol).
As for Elenath, I totally missed that she's a gen 1 and XYX - makes me love her even more now! Lucky! Axel was already on my like list and I thought Laurelin was too, but apparently I missed her. Telperion was borderline but got his star just now in reading their quotes (I'd read Elenath's). Some really poetic-prose quote choices there!
Arrluck def is perfect as is! I totally don't mind him being an honorary orca who gets to keep that accent! Also I just realized I picked two minimalists in your lair and didn't even realize. So definitely glad you don't at all mind :D
I have to go look at this lore you mentioned - I don't always remember to check bios when I'm doing this unless the person I'm returning likes for said something that lets me know they looked at the bio too. Eleneth was an exception because what was written there was short. I at least scroll down to the bio for spotlighted dragons and if it's short or nicely broken up visually or I'm just in the mood to read, I will do so - also I like to check if the spotlight has awesome art too :D
You've made me curious about Khoeli though so I'm gonna skim that real quick instead of doing the work on my plate right now lol. Please don't tell on me? lol
Why did I read this sad beautiful thing...at least they can be together on your lair page and nest babies together? lol Also the bio is simple but beautifully formatted. I didn't even recognize it from the Wolverine movie until I went on a research spree just now. I can't find any evidence though that this particular legend about Kuekuatsu wasn't created for the movie, so if you know otherwise, I'd love a link to read up on. Only found some Innu legends on the Kuekuatsheu that weren't about lonely moons.
Long replies are a thing I sometimes do too so I beyond understand, no need to apologize for spending time with me talking about something you obviously love. I have fairly high empathy so I enjoy interest-based word spills ;) At least when my brain allows me to read them (such as now).
