Dragon Fruits #024

Dragon Fruits are small dragons who thrive in the foliage.
They have adapted the colors of fruits they grow on their tails to blend in.


This Dragon is often gazing up at the sky, what things might they see throughout the day and through the night?

Username: Rylf
Dragon Name: Skye (ofc)
Gender: Male
Colony: Storage
Prompt: Skye's vision lazed across the clouds slowly crossing the horizon above him, his head resting upon crossed paws, his ears focused on the bubbling of a stream nearby. Today had been as uneventful as ever, upon his favored perch. Due to where he sat and the colors upon his scales, he was nearly invisible from the ground-eye view. Unlike most of his brethren, Skye was not suited for the forest and learned from a young age how easy he was to spot in the dense green foliage. Instead, many of his days are spent here, atop the cliff-face his clan members were too afraid to traverse, watching the sky, feeling the breeze, and fending off the few birds brave enough to taunt a dragonfruit.
He sighed in contentment, his 'good' eye watching a turtle-shaped cloud stroll on by, crawling over the orange and purple sunset with an ease Skye envied. His other eye was busy as well. While his clan believed him to be blind, and in the traditional sense, he is, Skye could see things with his 'bad' eye that none of the others could. He often saw creatures resembling horses with odd, pointy horns upon their heads roaming the forest below. No one else saw them or paid them any mind despite the forest growing quiet in their presence. As the last of the sun's rays dipped into obscurity, Skye closed his good eye and waited. Before long, he spotted a rather large one passing through the trees like a ghost, not truly touching anything, yet bringing a cool and calming breeze with it. HIs good eye snapped open as the creature whipped its large head around, gazing directly at him with an interested and slightly amused smile playing on its muzzle. Eyes wide, he sat up, noting only four of its five eyes blinking up at him before it turned and continued on its way, eventually settling in a clearing on the western side of the Isle, its body camouflaging into a hill with a glorious tree atop its center.
Skye stayed like this for some time, quietly observing a large fox with both eyes, its body glowing slightly in the view of his right yet looking perfectly average in the left. Under a sky of sparkling lights, he watched it bound around the now immobile creature disguised as a hill, frolicking as if it had no care in the world. Skye's eyes drooped lower and lower before finally settling on closed, his dreams filled with stars, glowing creatures, and walking trees.

. . . Uh, I hope I managed to answer the prompt well enough because I kind of went off the rails with this one. xD

      Username: nimmy
      Dragon Name: Tîtîwa Nakamowa (English name Blue Jay Song)(Sauk language)
      Gender: female
      Colony: The Hidden Hills
      Prompt:

      Blue Jay Song has a love as pure as the blue within her scales for her feathered company.

      Her tribe-mates often see her shimmering blue scales from afar as she gazes with her bright green eye up into the sky. For some time they pondered as to what it is that draws her away, then it all began to come clear. Blue Jay Song was lost in the wonders of the birds above her, watching them twist and twirl in the fleeting gusts of wind. How could something so small and delicate be capable of such an extraordinary feat?

      She is seen as a loner amongst the tribe, finding her most fitting company to be that of a murder of crows. Though the birds may appear dreary and aloft, she over time has befriended them and gained their trust. Blue Jay Song finds joy in all of her avian company, though this murder has become very close to her and she often will be seen with them alongside her. She allows them to roost on her when she has the time of day to spare sunbathing on the rocky outlooks of The Hidden Hills’ territory.

      Blue Jay Song has no time to take cover during poor weather conditions, instead she heads out on a mission, keeping her ears alert for the sound of chicks in distress during nesting season. This kind-hearted dragonfruit retrieves nestlings and keeps them safe with use of her wings during high winds and bad storms. She doesn’t mind bearing the rain for the little ones, thinking one day of their beauty as they take to the skies above her. She does often dwell on the desire to be able to fly amongst them, not even feeling comfortable enough to glide due to her poor eyesight and lacking judgement of space.

      “Take the air beneath your wings for me my friends.” Blue Jay Song murmurs softly under her breath, delighting in the refractions of light as they dance off the shining feathers above her. This will always be her peace, her happiness.
