You've Talked Alot abt The Draconic!Fire-Spirit In The FireWind Dynamic. But What abt The Birb!Wind-Archer?
( Sincerely, @loquatsloquatsloquats , Still Writing That FireWind Fic )
I've been thinking a lot about it recently!
(Also, I did some here. Dunno if you saw them. It says Dove, but I'm just making him "ambigiously any bird" now)
Bird!Wind Archer Cookie Headcanons
-Wind Archer is more attuned with his bird traits than Fire Spirit is with his dragon traits, so he is aware of most of most of the things that will trigger his bird instincts. Still, he still tries to deny his way out of feeling anything for Fire Spirit
-Every once in a while, Fire Spirit will offer to preen his wings for Wind Archer if he is having trouble and, while preening wings isn't always romantic for birds, it's still incredibly intimate and is often done by bird mates, and is sometimes done as foreplay. Every time, Wind Archer is silently freaking the fuck out.
-Wind Archer often gives gifts like shiny things for food to Fire Spirit. Best part is that both dragons AND birds do this, so it's something that they both understand (except they're both stupid and try explainingto themselves how, "it doesn't mean anything"). Downside effect is them getting jealous when other cookies give them food. They can't really explain why their jealous, though, since it's difficult to explain, "It upsets me when anyone that isn't me or your family gives you food", so they both just kind of sit there like "🫠🫠🫠"
-Showing off. Wind Archer doesn't do those often since he's pretty quiet, but he'll occasionally show off to Fire Spirit
-Some male birds will build nests and take them to there to show their potential mates. Wind Archer builds nests for Fire Spirit often, so he's used to that aspect, but Fire Spirit comes to his nest sometimes to sleep. The first time Wind Archer did that, he was incredibly nervous and embarrassed, since that's his potential mate coming to his NEST, and if it's bad than everything goes down the drain (in his mind. Fire Spirit doesn't care if his nest is a bit messy). Luckily, Fire Spirit thought that Wind Archer sleeping in a nest was cute, and Wind Archer just said thanks, but internally, he was VERY relieved
-Sometimes, Wind Archer initiates preening by just playing with Fire Spirit's cape and sometimes hair (he can't play with it for too long without burning his finger)
-Birds will sing to attract mates. Wind Archer doesn't do it to Fire Spirit (can you IMAGINE him putting on a whole dance performance for Fire Spirit? Lol). I just see it as him inadvertently humming or whistling to himself when Fire Spirit is around
