“Issue #8: Do You Really Think That’s Your Destiny?”
I’ve been looking forward to drawing this issue for awhile! Daffodilpaw hasn’t gotten much exploration in the story yet, but I’m really fond of her. She seems like a simple relentless optimist, but sometimes she’ll open her mouth and unironically say the most insane depressing thing you’ve ever heard. Like I’ve said, none of the apprentices in this story are remotely okay.
Her injury is somewhat similar to Cinderpelt’s in how it manifests, as her leg from the shin down is paralyzed. However her upper thigh still works fine, and in any case three-legged cats don’t actually live any worse than four-legged ones. This is all moot against canon Warriors comparison anyways, because in PATFW healers still hunt and patrol. Daffodilpaw can’t run or fight as well as the others but she doesn’t really need to! Not much need in BarrenClan. All to say that canon-typical discrimination against disabled cats isn’t a part of Daffodilpaw’s story and I shall not be engaging with it.
Yeah, her repressed feelings of misplaced survivor’s guilt and pressure to perform for her authority figures is a whole OTHER can of worms!

"Gingka just had to come and take all the glory...didn't wait for me to go be a hero!"
OMG KYOYA WANTED TO HERO--!
OMG THE 1-YEAR TIMESKIP HAS GINGKA AND KYOYA!!
OMG THEY'RE STANDING ON THE STADIUM TOGETHER! AND NO ONE ELSE!!
Before Zero and Sakyo met...
"[Sakyo is a star in the world od dance. He is very popular and tours the entire globe.]
AND HE HAS TIME TO BEYBLADE IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THAT?!??!
OMG RYUGA'S STILL ALIVE AND WASN'T THE ONE TO GIVE DRAGOON!!
"I was wondering what humans were doing here..." *snorts* "humans" XD "You too are part of the Dragon Clan, aren't you?" OMG HE KNOWS!!!
"Oh, you're able to follow the rhythmn?" Ha. Cuz Sakyo's a ballet dancer.
"So you're no novice." Oh, to get recognized by Ryuga!!
OMG SAKYO AWAKENED!!!
OMG THE LIGHT OF BEYBLADE THING CAME FROM RYUGA!!!
"The Dragon Clan consisted of extraordinary individuals previously called the 'Highlanders." They lived in wild and unknown regions, dedicating themselves to perfecting the art of Beyblading with Dragon-type Beys. However, due to life in a particularly harsh environment, the size of their group decreased little by little, and today their descendants number only a few. They are spread across the four corners of the globe, far away from civilization.
"On day, Doji discovered one of the ancient kings sleeping deep inside the sanctuary. It was Ryuga, the most powerful dragon emperor, the only one able to control the terrible forbidden Bey called L-Drago. What followed became the epic fight between him and Gingka.
"Ryuto and Sakyo both come from a village of descendants of the Dragon Clan. The citizens call the chief of the village 'Big Brother,' and pay him the utmost respect.
"In this clan, Sakyo, by his birth, is heir to the royal bloodline. Over the passing centuries, the blood of the Dragon Clan was diluted through marriage with ordinary humans. Additionally, because Sakyo was raised in the city, he knows almost nothing of his exotic origins. Takanosuke, a boy with close ties to the Dragon Clan, put himself and his bey Griffin towards the service and protection of the clan's royal heir."
...Apparently Sakyo's friends with Reiji as well????
I love how in the family tree Dragon Clan chart, Ryuto has no line connecting him. "He's just a guy that exists" XD

there's some kind of meme material that i just can't pinpoint on what exactly it is or some kind of art duo expression meme but either way, it's GOLD.

For the record, The Scarecrow is my favorite Batman villain, and this is such a fantastic spread of him.

Unclear what possessed me, an arachnophobe, to design a cover that involves me looking at very in-depth pictures of a scorpion, but at least the symbolism is hitting well.
