I think he was probably demanding. Not exactly supportive, especially not when she made mistakes as a hatchling that Mere would consider elementary (because they would be elementary - not everyone is a genius). Definitely more on the protective side than supportive. But, hey, that’s only one parenting style. Let me tell you, the treatment a lot of my friends got from their parents would sure as heck have not worked for me. And, even if Mere’s parenting style wasn’t always compatible with her personality, I think she turned out okay! Even with my dressing job. I swear, I’m getting more and more unhinged as the year goes on. Show me [b]Offspring[/b] of one of your dragons that you kept! Alternatively, adopted or in-lore-only. Just any child of a parent in your lair. [center]Tomorrow we celebrate [b]Mentors[/b] with [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/82085972]Titania[/url].[/center]

A large chunk of my lair were born here. I'm going to feature Juicebox due to his heritage - he's the great-great-grandson of two of my OG couples that I got during my first week on FR (the infamously cutthroat mercenary duo Arrokoth & Camlann, and prominent court nobles Jiaozi & Syldrion). He doesn't have lore yet, but I feel like his heritage is also lore of a sort.

He's an expert on tracking the stars across the sky, recording and cataloguing the progress of heavenly bodies. Purely for the purposes of proving they're not real, but still.

His mother Wildflower was one of my very first dragons, adopted from Nature's Everbloom Nursery. He's nearly 3 years old now! Two little grub children for their gardener mother.

Meredith looks awesome! Never would have thought to use that accent myself, but the orange pops in such a cool way. I've kept so (so, [i]so[/i]) many of my dragons' offspring, but I'll throw out Smahlin because I'm pretty sure she's the most distant descendant of one of my dragons that I have: [center][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/59508226][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/595083/59508226_350.png[/img][/url][/center] She's [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/9685391]Sadzhik[/url]'s great-great-granddaughter - from him the line goes [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/20383354]Shael[/url] > [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/39282584]Vennesetiid[/url] > [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/43139833]Siinorah[/url] > Smahlin. Vennesetiid and Siinorah both belong to one of my friends, and I'm still amused that I didn't even remember their lineage when I picked up Smahlin from them.

I guess Falco is pretty close, except that his secondary is the color of his jacket? The point was that the way I build fandragons (sometimes) is so that the dragon itself is evocative of the colors with or without the outfit. Hence the legion of yellow and black Star Trek dragons I have. See, I can even make a post about Fire Emblem come about to Star Trek. I truly have a Problem. Anyways, I once planned on embarking on a breeding project for these exact colors, but I got distracted by something else (as you do), then one day rediscovered the saved searches on the AH and remember my plans for Titania. And wouldn’t you know it, this girl existed. She was a Spiral, but otherwise everything was perfect. I was shocked and thrilled and bought her immediately. Somewhere between three and five days later, she was gened and dressed and beautiful as heck. I say a lot of dragons are my most-conventionally “prettiest” dragon, and I do mean it every time. But this is my prettiest dragon. Also. Titania will one day fill a role similar to that Lightning does, once she decides to retire. It’s only fitting, because I based Lightning’s character on Ike, the same game that Titania’s character is based on. Why did I do that? I have no idea. I guess I love the game. Anyways, in the meantime, she is following in Lightning’s footsteps in learning how to help run a mercenary company like this. After all, no one man knows how to make a pencil. Show me a [b]Mentor[/b]! Or a dragon that is mentored. A dragon that has gone before or a dragon that comes after. A dragon worthy of respect, or a dragon willing to defend the respect another dragon is due. [center]Tomorrow we celebrate [b]Water[/b] with [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/12662785]Rona[/url].[/center]

Alright, here we go. Thank you all so much for sharing all your dragons, and I've liked every one of them up to here! I do look every day, I just don't usually have the energy to give comments back. Granted, I might be better if I did it in little bits, like... every week instead of every month and a half.

But, frankly, I'm surprised I've gotten this far. This is insane to me.

Now. Your dragons. As warned, I only respond to those who respond directly to me - unless I decide to respond anyway.

@wildewinged
Thank you! I kept coming back to the accent for some reason, though... I cannot explain why. It seems to have turned out semi-alright, anyway.

I empathize strongly with the so (so, so) many offspring. It's even more awesome when the dragon is from another lair... and has such awesome colors. Swamp is beautiful, and the headband/mane is on point.

And daaang what a beautiful and soft dragon Cherished is. Good accent and I absolutely adore the wreath. Looks so good.

Sithvas looks amazing. Love that platinum jaguar. Also, fitting character for an Abe. They have such sinister smiles...

The color coordination on Zaprah is once again wonderful. All the light and pastel blues with the soft silver and platinum is incredibly pleasing to look at. Then the empty eyes just... terrify you. Also brilliant familiar match there.

I was pretty neutral on Cinder/Blaze as a thing until I scried it for him. It truly was incredible. Now I look at it for all my Star Trek dragons, but it doesn't work nearly as well on them. That's fine, they're still fabulous. Anyway, THAT is a brilliant Breakup?? I love what it does to Obe's manes? Also, she's just all around a brilliant dragon. Looks like springtime to me. This is one of those dragons I really wish I could like twice.

Thank you very much! Taurik is... probably my favorite guy. The shine hasn't worn off after seven months anyway, so that's a good indication. And dang, yours is beautiful, too. Good double. But Duvhirat is lovely, also. I always love to see a use of the unicorn horn, and it looks like it is actually, literally a part of him. I'll have to keep that in mind for that skin he's wearing. Also the pocket watch looks very very good.

Bogsneaks have such a good look of danger. The ladies, anyway. I wish her luck on her pyramid scheme. Or not. She's got such a good gene combo, I love the purple highlights so much.

Lorian looks so coherent! Because of the Keel, I think! What a very good use - I absolutely agree on that "blank" spot and then making it look even more natural with the flowerfall. I think this. This might be the best Keel actually.

I just have to say. Accurate statement about that one big snake.

And I love Hanesh's colors. Wow wow wow. I'm always surprised by the dark or pale brown-range things like that. Also good use of the dark sclera and yet another good familiar match. You are just always on top of it, I think.

I got Valkinto specifically to wear the facemask! I saw someone else use it like that, and thought to myself that I needed to steal it, I guess? Except I think they were using the brown/green one. Which is perhaps a more interesting mask. Anyways, Alieth looks the part of a super powerful mage! That facet is just killing me - it's so shiny and I so often overlook facet nowadays that it's so old? But it makes him look like an ancient god, powerful and dangerous. Matching the runes, of course. How does Goldenrod look so much gold-er than Gold??

Voekti is a wonderful f Tundra. Good accent (which I love whenever I see it), but also that capsule match even in the empty bit high on her neck could not be better. I think the grasps also look generally more spooky on the f Tundras. I love the "sentient sword" thing - it's always fun to imagine such cinematic fight scenes.

Kastic is indeed spring embodied. The more I see those carousel wing bits, the more I love them. I also really like that sash (though is it actually a sash?) and the crown layering.

@Foxlo
Thank you! And Taza, of course, got a like from me.

Dang those scries in his bio are absolutely rad. Especially Cheetah. Goodness me. Also, I feel that pain on the Boneyard Tatters. On the plus side, he looks amazing without it as well.

Thank you! I'm not sure I fixed Job but I decided it was actually the Hazebeacon I didn't like and replaced it with the whale. Not sure it fixed it... Anyways, Memphis looks great! Good use of that skin. But I can see not being quite happy with it. But, then, I'm the kind of person who apparently cannot do matchy. I'm always like, "What if I just Tossed In some red?" So, maybe, what if you did.

And Gator is frikkin adorable. Also, anything counts. Especially if it's explained. I love seeing the prompts used in off-the-wall ways.

Menorca would be happy to oblige - she's not at all picky about where she gets her money. Also, Ruben is wonderful. Very bright, red. Nice that he saves everyone from exploding as well.

100%, no shame, I just have tastes that diverge from using that many, I guess. But I did it! And Rah was 100% worth it as well. I love the arrangement of colors on this guy.

Okay, your Aztec dragons are incredible. Left Cer a star. Also, love the budgies. Who don't love the budgies.

Congratulations on the use of that cape. It looks very good on her. Highly coordinated outfit, indeed.

Like #12 on Dante! I like the use of that skin. Definitely does the samurai vibe. Good glowing claws as well.

All those different versions of the same guy were indeed horrifying. I'm not sure if that was the intent, but if I came into a lair and saw a legion of ghost plushies like that, I'd flee the scene screaming probably. I love the layered stuff going on on the head though. I stared for a good while trying to figure that out. Just overall, brilliant color coordination and layering here. The more I look the more I see. I forgot about those herbs tied to the ankles.

Falcon and his pup are so cute! He can think he's a tree. He looks the part, anyway. Even trees have crowns.

@xGemDragonx
I'm glad it was inspiring! And I don't know what it is about Kai, but I just love that Watermelon Glimmer. Very, very cute.

---

@Doozie
I am shocked and amazed at the number of outfits for this dragon. That's dedication.

---

@gn0me
I hope camping and all went very well!

And the use of the augment stuff on Ampoule is fantastic. Especially with the wasp and bee. A combo that was truly went to be.

That is an interesting episode, too. Kinda. Bizarre. As some of those episodes are wont to be. But sometimes it does indeed seem that is the purpose of diplomacy.

ChocChipIce is so cute. Very good use of Keel. I love the chocolate chip dragons that Keel brought to us. The cookie dragons? Adorable. Good primal, as well.

Thank you! Reagan just took me... a very long time to dress. But not at all a long time to scry. But I love the use of the fin jewel things to draw out the color of those runes on Athan. And coordinating that hulking eye with other elements like the whispering-ghost thing. (I don't know why I think it's whispering, it just looks like it to me.) I wish him and his remaining limbs good luck.

You know, at this point, I should have a post about mantles. I'm sure I have plenty more where that came from. Though I'm trying hard not to. I love Ryoma's trail. He looks so much like a wandering warrior, so on-point. Also, very interesting-looking fandragon!

@Shatapatrika
Thank you! It did make for some Drama. For sure.

Anderson looks amazing. I love the use of all the books and the addition of the Power Up Aura. Otherwise, looking at the gifs in his bio? I'd for sure say you nailed this one.

Another great use of the Power Up Aura on this guy. The shiny mane is great and those huge eyes. I've never seen JJBA, though I know that it exists. Seen many character designs. I would probably be able to pick out this guy as a fandragon just from that. So I guess there are plusses and minuses to scrying based on literal appearance or vibe. I guess I would just have a bunch of Spring/Gold dragons instead of Gold/(something)/Black like I currently do if I did it that way. I was talking to a friend about who the ~actual~ Spock would be if I did it that way. I guess it ain't bad. Certainly unconventional. I'd spend so much money on Irridescent, though...

And Alucard is definitely, 100%, no-questions-asked the Vampire. Even if I didn't know his name, I'd know what he was. And surprisingly? I think it's the pirate scarf thing. Brilliant use of that with the waistcoat.

---

@DragonJade
Thank you so much! They make me very happy... And, Leech is just. Beautiful. What a good Guardian. I totally agree on how difficult the mantle is to use, though. I see so many people use it amazingly but I apparently can't figure it out. It looks fantastic and dangerous on her.

---

@Dianounais
Thanks much! Faron is great - the primal eye here is genius.

---

@Shalott
Thanks! And Marzanna looks lovely - the few green bits to match the spines? I love it so much. And that Forest trail. Brilliant.

---

@Kauria
Thanks! Meru's genes are just straight beautiful! I especially like the opal with the Turquoise here. Also, I always like to see that hat.
