That's one of their defining features! Didn't your parents ever tell you about dandelion clocks as a kid?
EDIT: Of course, maybe you don't have dandelions in west ithmia or whatever W.I stands for...but the ones around here explode!

I laughed so hard, and I feel all happy because I can hope that this was... "inspired" by that discussion we had about whether dandelions were weeds yesterday in front of Butter.

No, we don't have Dandelions in the West Indies, but I thought they just...you know, scattered by the wind. Not violently explode.

Well, typically they don't spontaneously explode, but any little bump or movement or breeze and they do.

Naming a denizen Dandelion is pretty lame, IMHO. It's not like it's not known that Dandelion is used as both an insult and descriptor of a well known kick and run player.

Dandelion is usually a nasty nickname for Daedalion.
Shiri2008-08-26 03:16:59
It's been obsoleted by the simpler and more obvious "weed" though, so it shouldn't be that bad. I enjoyed the exploding, anyway.

Dandelion was my idea for the child's name being its descriptive of his quest and how we envisioned the child.
This is the first I've heard of the nickname, and if you guys seriously think it was meant to refer to Daedalion as some sort of stupid inside joke...
Urazial2008-08-26 03:23:41
I pretty much liked the whole little event. Short, sweet, and entertaining. I generally bitch more than I should, so... just saying nicely done to the admins. Can't beat exploding fae babies!

I doubt that they think you're insulting him, but the nickname has been on the forums everywhere.

Finding a flower in a letter that had originally upset me.
Oh, and milk and cookies as a midnight snack. Yum.

Also, as a belated and very overdue rave to Revan who's been kind and understanding in my presently emo ways.

It's true. Iwertias is amazing. He actually acknowledged a Celestian (admittedly, this was like... a month and a half ago RL, before the Glomdoranian brainwashing, so I doubt he remembers but I had fun).
I are too serious RPer. I get my kicks from serious RP.
*EVENT STUFF*
And all this time, I was wondering what would happen if I killed one of the puffs or the baby.
