Snake predictions

Any guesses as to which breed of snake each flight will get?

I vote rough green snake for nature:

Hognose snake for earth:

A cobra would be cool but idk which flight it would match best with.

The hate I meant is that about 888 getting picked all the time. I have no clue why this guy brought up the ban and multiaccount shit.

hmm… black rat snake for shadow?:

banded sea krait for water, of course. it can’t be anything BUT a sea snake, surely!:

maybe a corn snake for plague? solely for color matching aesthetic-y purposes:

paradise tree snake for wind, because these guys leap from trees and look like they’re flying while doing so:

maybe a red milk snake for fire:

as for cobra, i wonder if arcane will get it, purely because the cobra food items in the game are crystal/gem themed? sort of? onyx and opal.

Water needs a sea snake for sure. Hmm I wonder if they'll go for anacondas for any flight. Maybe nature?

I was thinking a milk snake (or coral, or kingsnake- similar coloring) might suit shadow in a sideways way since it reminds me a bit of casino colors and the circus/casino theme they have going on for trickmurk.

I was thinking about sand boas earlier. So majestic:

I love the snakes but the description of the familiars is hilarious since it only mentions the flowers blooming and not the snake that apparently comes with them. Unless the snake is a bloom o-o

rough scaled bush viper I want it so bad but it doesn't scream a specific flight so.

I'm just saying:

While I LOVE hognose snakes (bc they are adorable little shits) what about t. cerrejonesis for earth? An ancient, MASSIVE snake curled around some succulents?

I'd also like the items Crim requests to be denoted if they're to be used for anything.

I'd like to see a hognose, aka The Melodramatic Playing Dead Snake, for Plague or Shadow.

Being able to search through items in CR/dms would be great. I also miss the lair icon, put that thing back where it came from, or so help me

Ability to restrict PM/profile comments to friends-only or no one at all.

Almost every multiplayer game has a setting to restrict private communications from randoms that isn't just limited to a block list for specific people. I don't know why FR doesn't have something similar.

Will never happen, but I'd love if they adopted a "One alt account per user" that Lioden does- the accounts are linked and are visible, but they're otherwise separate.

I'd LOVE to have a purely aesthetic account and then a lore account.

As amazing as succulents would be, I think they're going by birth month flower! Which would make November chrysanthemum.

I'm excited to see Plague's snake with marigolds tbh :eyes:

This. I just don't want to talk to random people or get PMs asking for my dragons. And yes I have it in my profile but people are entitled and ignore it ofc.

idk how i can be more clear that my dragons arent for sale. i just dont respond to them at this point, if they cant be bothered to look at the text in my bio then i cant be bothered to respond.

man, every time i buy a new dragon in the colors i collect i feel a bit of anxiety now since multiple people have bitched on salt blogs about me buying them and now im afraid itll keep happening

As someone who has 30+ XXYs:


Fuck em. If you've got the funds, collect your favs.

Other people are gonna bitch that your collection is boring and "I only like INTERESTING XYZ G1's *fart noise*" so you can't win.

YOU DO YOU.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-25 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
this, there will always be haters especially since these are technically "finite resources" some people think you have to play considerately but you really don't

just take it on the shoulder and keep collecting

Unless you're the sky/aqua person who threw a fit, pressured people, and was a nuisance in discords and on the Tumblr blog, feel no shame. I love seeing people devoted to collecting specific combos.

Popcorn to Booker getting into an argument over FR drama again. This time it's because of the festival familiars. Is it wrong that I find his interactions kind of funny?

I collect doubles, too, and I try not to be a dick about it, but I have had like one or two people get snippy with me when I've won an auction.

"SOMEDAY I'll have a double of this color"

Okay???? Guilt tripping won't make me retract my bid. Get more gems, honey.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-26 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
ive gotten that too, it makes me feel INCREDIBLY bad when people get guilt trippy
the last post i saw about me was "can the sapphire guy save some for the rest of us" and it made me feel SO bad. another post said i was a snob for having over 35 of them. i keep having to tell myself its not my fault theyre mad about it. i check the AH 4 times a day to see new ones being posted and I put in the effort to send PMs and make deals or just straight up buy them off the AH if its a price i know is fair
i just like the color :( i dont want anyone to feel bad but i also dont want to feel bad myself
