NOTN advice from a veteran: it’s the holidays. Ignore your family. They’ll probably be there afterwards. NOTN is once a year. It is your life for the next two weeks. Embrace it. Live it. Thrive. Kill a man

”We want weirder ancient breeds!” You couldn’t even handle the everlux

[shriekthedragon]

today i acquired the arcane sprite, which officially means i have all the sprites!

[shriekthedragon]

i am gonna scream i’ve opened 360 chests and there’s still TWO ITEMS I NEED.

[shriekthedragon]

I just realized that this is the second year in a row that something terrible has happened to me irl right around the time of the House Cup, resulting in me staying at my parents’ and not being able to participate.

[shriekthedragon]

I need help naming my new gaoler! Any ideas?

[shriekthedragon]

I’m so mad that I’ll probably be asleep by the time the first ancient dragon comes out, and then as soon as I wake up I’ll have to go to work for the next 12 hours.

Spent a little over a thousand gems on gem fams, right as my AH income started to slow down, of course. But hey! Only 9 more gem fams to go!

[shriekthedragon]

of course i lose all motivation right when plague flips us. ugh. but we must prevail! the battle must be won!

[shriekthedragon]

it is the 4th day of arcane v. place and i am only about 17k in the hole. can i blame work? i blame work. i’ve trained/exalted fodder and attended the raffle/PB every day of the push for as long as i could, so i’m blaming adult life and 12hr shifs for the fact that i’ve only exalted 100 dragons total. but! i have the next 3 days off, so watch the fuck out.

A not-quite-a-masterpost of my dragon breed size chart for #FRFanArt Friday!

These are both the lateral and dorsal views of the chart, encompassing the average size (m + f) of every breed. The data for this chart came from the Dragon Census and my Bogsneak Census, and takes into account shoulder width for the wings – but do keep in mind, each breed can get much bigger and smaller than the averages represented here! This doesn’t take into account weight, either, and represents a generic and approximately average build to match the on-site art as well.

The fluff on some breeds’ tails is not taken into account since it’s fur/feathers. I’ve attempted to be as accurate to the official art for the proportions and builds as possible, for the best representation.

I personally see three ‘classes’ of breed in the chart: small, medium and giant. Small would be Fae, Spirals, Tundra, and Snappers; giant of course would consist of Guardians, Ridgebacks, and Imperials; the rest would fall under medium. :D

You can find the original posts here (contains dinosaur comparison) and here.

Welp, it’s that time again. Time to beg the internet for money.

I currently have $20 in my bank account, and I got paid TODAY. Almost all of my paycheck went towards getting me out of the negative. But by monday my account will be in the negative again, when my car payment comes out. Between that, my electric bill, and my phone bill, I will be $225 dollars in the negative by April 19th. And each of those bills will incur a $40 overdraft fee when they come out. I work full time and try to pinch pennies wherever I can, but it’s simply not enough.

I need $155 by monday to prevent my car payment from overdrawing my account.

I need $225 total, by the 14th, if I want to avoid overdrawing my account.

Any little bit you can give would be a huge help, or a signal boost if you can’t donate.

[shriekthedragon]

I know this isn't FR related, but I am seriously desperate. Please help if you can, or signal boost.

fr-lutielle reblogged your post:

I mean, if you don’t want to level them, you’re...

Nah I’m cool. Tbh I find it calming, and like I said, I can always watch stuff while I do. But thanks for the offer.

[shriekthedragon]

I really don’t feel like levelling fodder right now, but I have so many, and spacedad needs them! Maybe I’ll just rewatch Political Animals for the millionth (third) time as motivation.

[aeviart]

so I drew the Observatory/Focal Point today…

[shriekthedragon]

People correcting themselves and apologizing when they misgender me is such a sweet thing to do. I know not everyone on FR is so considerate, but it’s nice when they are.

I got two eggs from the Sandswept Delta within ten minutes of each other holy shit.
