@dragonaday-fr Day 23: A Dragon You Wish You Could Scatter
Well, I knew who this had to be immediately. It's a very simple picture this time because. I'm so tired for one, but second, I am more interested in talking about this one.
Meet Choco. He was one of my very first g1 purchases, and an exalt rescue as well. He was up for fodder price alongside some of his own children. I grabbed him but they were gone. I very quickly grew attached.
At the time I liked bright dragons, but his Soil and Brown were just so... natural. He felt very real and endearing to me, and so I kept him.
This was roughly 8 years ago, so there were no genes I liked on him. I kept him completely basic for years, and he took up the lore job as clan therapist. He became very beloved to me.
Finally, piebald and paint rolled in! I was overjoyed! It was soft and lovely and kept him looking natural. And so he remained for years. Even now.
No tertiary gene.
And here is why:
GODDAMN ROYAL
Nothing looks natural in royal, there is no additional colour you can draw out to make it blend better, and I am not a fan of putting belly on a tundra and then covering it with a shirt. He barely wears apparel either. Not his thing.
Sometimes I SO BADLY want to scatter him. Just over and over until I get all natural tones.
But he has so much art I want him to still match, and that aside, there are SO MANY colours now. Imagine what could happen! He could theoretically be scattered hundreds of times without going all natural tones! He could turn into a goddamn triple magenta!
ANYTHING, before going how I want.
And so, for 8 years, I have wanted to scatter this tundra. And I have not.
Gods help me.
