Flying Fish

:"Are you looking to buy something? If not, please leave. Either way, never return here." 
:Flying Fish stared at the unfamiliar dragon, trying not to show how terrified he was. 
:
Flying Fish is a male SeaWing who lives in Shining Scale. An accomplished chef, he sells and trades various types of seafood to the other townsfolk. He is the brother of Avon, and hatched in the same clutch as her.
__TOC__
==Description==
While Flying Fish's build and physique aren't very notable, he has been described to look like his scales were painted by a morning fog. The SeaWing is a greyish-periwinkle color, and has denim blue horns, claws and spines while his glowscales are a very light blue. He has wings that fade from dull pink-red to periwinkle, and his eyes have the same bright cyan color as his sister's.
The sail along his back, oddly enough, is slightly transparent, allowing visibility through the webbing while still being tinted blue. This is due to the webbing being much thinner and more delicate than average, and Flying Fish takes great care to not accidentally tear it.
==Personality==
Flying Fish is a tranquil, shrewd, patient, and at times rash and stubborn dragon. He tends to make snap judgements about other dragons, which causes him to miss the smaller and often important details of those he knows. The SeaWing will often dig his talons in when scared, refusing to back down even when he knows he's in the wrong just to have an idea to hold on to when his fight-or flight instincts are ringing in his mind.
His calm exterior makes Flying Fish an excellent conversationalist, allowing him to easily speak with others, or at least fake it. The SeaWing also greatly enjoys cooking, and while he doesn't particularly have monetary gain as his goal, he will still attempt to dissuade hagglers at all costs.
The SeaWing is soft-spoken, and rarely raises his voice above a whisper. Even when Flying Fish has been pushed beyond his breaking point he doesn't shout, and those who have witnessed his quiet furor claim it is orders of magnitude more terrifying than if he had just yelled instead.
==Biography==
===Pre-Series===
:Growing up in a small town located in the Bay of a Thousand Scales with his sister being practically the only other dragonet his age, Flying Fish quickly learned to make his own fun. SeaWings don't traditionally cook their meals, so when a traveling MudWing stayed in Shining Scale for a time, the dragonet was instantly fascinated by the way the traveler didn't just eat their fish raw and whole. After quite a bit of whining and wheedling on Flying Fish's part, they decided to teach him a few recipes.
:The SeaWing continued to learn how to cook and prepare food, even after the disappearance of his parents and Avon's departure to lands uncharted. Flying Fish didn't have the same wanderlust the rest of his family seemed to have, and contented himself with his quiet, if lonely life. At least, he did, until a NightWing quite literally blew into town on a storm's wind. This new arrival was called Disaster, and he strove to do any and everything possible to best Flying Fish, even in normally non-competitive activities.
:For the longest time, Flying Fish managed to ignore the NightWing and his need to prove himself, until one day he decided to play along and accept the offer to duel. It was like a spark had ignited inside the SeaWing; competition was not something he expected to enjoy, and over time the two slowly became actual friends.
===Fanfictions===
:Flying Fish has not currently appeared in any fanfiction.
==Relationships==
===Avon===
As a dragonet, Flying Fish didn't care much about his sister, and the two of them rarely spent time together. He finds her company much more enjoyable now that they're both adults, albeit her visiting only every few months. He enjoys their long talks together, but their conversation mostly remains light, as if they are casual acquaintances rather than siblings.
===Disaster===
What started as a one-sided rivalry grew into a genuine friendship between Flying Fish and the NightWing, as they both share a competitive spirit. The two of them can and will turn even the smallest task into a way to best each other, and while their fighting can get fierce, they both still make sure not to cut too deep. He still suspects that Disaster has a few stories he'd rather not share, but Flying Fish was never the prying type.
==Trivia==
*Similarly to his namesake, Flying Fish will glide above the surface of the water when hunting rather than swim.
*He and Disaster considered entering a romantic relationship, but they both decided they were better off friends and rivals.
*Flying Fish dislikes rain due to it extinguishing his cooking fires, which are already hard enough to light as a part of a fireless tribe.
*His favorite time of the day is right after sunrise.
