The New Solare - Review Responses


yuurimaoh

Recommended Posts

Hello, everyone! My screen name is yuurimaoh, my pen name is Dragon Dung, but my real name is only known to a select few.

I've managed to sneak a dragon in almost every single story I've ever written. But, for as long as I remember, I've always wanted to write a story specifically featuring dragons, for once. And not just any story, but The New Solare. Then again, with a pen name like Dragon Dung, it should be pretty obvious how much I love to read and write about dragons. The New Solare, in particular, was something that I've been meaning to write since the year 2005, but I haven't been able to truly get it going until now. How? Well, inspired by my fellow writers' dragon stories, I simply couldn't help myself. So, in a way this story is also meant to honor all of the dragon writers before me, and even the ones that have yet to start! I've even managed to rope my friend Toma into helping me with this story as well by taking over Sindri for me while I juggle the rest of the cast. So I want to take the time to thank her as well for being a part of this project.

ARTWORK: I have been slowly accumulating artwork for this story, by Toma and myself. I've drawn only concept sketches, but Toma has managed to make completed artwork as well. All of which I want to share with you. (anything marked with an asterisk is new)

Sindri by Toma: http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/176/2/b/the_new_solare_by_tomacchi-d6an8j8.png -In this piece, Toma wanted to feature Gallant Gonuret's flower as well as Gallant Kelius's bracelet!

Sindri and Ansar by Toma: http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/182/9/4/desert_gallant_and_visionary_by_tomacchi-d6bi0wd.png - This piece features the two best friends. Toma made it to cheer me up during some troubles I had at home.

Ilohir, Gonuret, and Ruthed Concept Sketches by Toma: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/Thirdly/IlohirGonuretandRuthedbyToma_zps8aa7b26f.jpg - Toma had taken it upon herself to try to sketch some of the Gallants as she saw them.

Madhal and Kelius by Toma: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/Thirdly/Photo07101044_1_zps406b45d7.jpg - Toma's concept sketches of Madhal and Kelius.

Ilohir, Gonuret, and Ruthed Concept Sketches by DD: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/Thirdly/ilohirruthedngonuret_zps15c54de1.jpg - Here, I built a little more off of Toma's concept sketches in my style.

Madhal and Kelius by DD: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/Thirdly/MadhalKelius001_zps053b5bad.png - I didn't really expand on anythinng with these two off of Toma's sketches except maybe making their ears a little longer and Kelius's hair a bit longer. Toma pretty much got them spot on. <3

Emyve Concept Sketch by DD: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/Thirdly/Emyve_zpsfa1ba2d9.jpg - Here, I attempted a sketch of Emyve. The braids were a little too complex for me to sketch, so I showed a reference for some of them on it as well.

*Sindri by Toma: http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/024/3/f/sindri_by_tomacchi-d73l9f3.png

*Ruthed and Sindri by Toma: http://orig07.deviantart.net/9b5d/f/2015/096/f/2/ruthed_and_sindri_by_tomacchi-d8oq3zt.png

*Emyve Reference Sheet by DD: http://orig14.deviantart.net/4fc9/f/2015/113/f/c/emyve_ref_sheet_by_michithethird-d8qtiqc.png Toma is amazing for designing their clothes and bringing their palettes to life. Me? I draw their semi-formal and formal clothes. And play with their hair. A lot.

Chapter 1 Review Responses:

Celestialuna: Good start of story.
DD: Thank you kindly. I hope you continue to enjoy it as it progresses.

midnightsscream: very interesting and informative start! Can't wait to see where you go with this! : )
DD: I tried my best to give a good idea of what their culture was like. I hope it wasn't confusing for anyone. This story is incredibly fun to write, so I hope it will be entertaining as well.

Chapter 2 Review Responses:

midnightsscream: Madhal looks interesting, but yeah Sindri doesn't seem to have much of a connection with him. Seemed a bit awkward. I'm interested to see how the other meetings go.
DD: Sindri has another round of 'dates' to narrow it down. After the third round (which is usually narrowed down to 2 or 3 by then), he has to make his final decision.

Chapter 3 Review Responses:

m_kren2: is nice, more chapters

DD: Glad you're enjoying it so far. The chapters will keep coming.

Chapter 4 Review Responses:

Kat: AWWWWWW, I loved this chapter! And knowing there are dragons fighting over him...cannot wait to read more! Awesome!!

DD: You'll be reading about those fighting dragons soon.

wolfluv: I AM TOTALLY DIGGING THIS STORY!!!! I almost don't think I would know who to choose from either!!! I loved the last page on how E and R might get together!!! read ya laters!

DD: Hopefully Sindri will give us a clue as to who he'll finally decide on soon.

Chapter 5 Review Responses:

TRUgrit: LOL I love Gallant Kinky! They all seem like such great characters and I can't wait to see who he chooses. Kind of cracking up because the theme song for Armageddon that Aerosmith is playing in the background and it's totally how I feel about this story. "And I don't wanna miss a thing..." Sorry feeling a bit silly today! But seriously, can't wait for more!

DD: This one's a pretty silly story too. Kelius is one of my favorites too. I haven't even introduced the entire cast of this story yet, so there are still more characters outhere.

Kat: A very sweet chapter! Very, very nice. I really enjoyed reading it. He had quite a relaxing time in this one! Please update soon! : )

DD: Sindri looked like he needed a break in Gonuret's eyes. Wonder what he'd say if he knew he had a rabbit counterpart hopping around somewhere in the fortress. : )

Chapter 6 Review Responses:

guesst: Great story....enjoy reading it very much!
DD: Thank you for taking the time to read and review! Toma and I are glad you like it so far.
wolfluv: I LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT!!!! This is such a GREAT story!!! I can't wait to see what happens next! read ya laters!!!
DD: Glad you're enjoying it so far.

Chapter 7-8 Review Responses:

wolfluv: This story is just so... AWESOME!!!!! I love all the differences with each dragon and I love that they've all found someone of their own, I can't wait to read what Sin and GOU's powers are now that they are crowned so to speak! read ya laters
DD: I think you're the first to have given Gonuret a nickname. I was thinking "Gon" but maybe "Gou" fits him better. XD

Chapter 9 Review Responses:

wolfluv: WOW that was quite surreal!!! I'm hoping the Duke isn't as much of an asshole as I think he is! I can't wait to find out! read ya laters!
DD: Surreal just about definitely sums it up. Toma and I just about played volleyball with this particular chapter...serving nothing but spikes...until we ended up with that craziness.
asdf: Please don't leave us hanging on too long, loving this to pieces....
DD: This particular year has been chaos for both of us, but we haven't stopped working on this story! We've been piecing things together bit by bit. :)
Anon: Love this story, love all your stories. Your writing is da best! Cannot wait for more........
DD: Hopefully it will all be worth the wait. Toma and I put a lot into these dragon boys. XD
Tahn: Please finish this, I really wanna know what happens, and I can't wait until they finally can be together.
DD: It will, have faith! Toma and I always finish what we start together, even if it's not consistent.

Chapter 10 Review Responses:

smint45: I really like this story!!! I wonder why I didn't dicover this sooner but I'm glad I did anyway^^ I hope they will be able to bring everybody back allright!!! See you again soon!!!!

DD: Toma and I are always glad to see that others are enjoying the story as much as we are.

Robin: I love this story! Kelius was my favorite! I also adore the bunnies. Kinky Kit it's my favorite of course. All the history and cleaning is very interesting. All the dragons are yummy too. I love the dragon twins and I hate the count. He's going to be nothing but trouble.Poor G and S need some alone time. And what it's going to happen to K ? ! Eep! You have to tell me when you have a new chapter.

DD: Kelius is one of my favorites, as well. Gonuret and Sindri do need some alone time, definitely.

----

A question for those who are keeping tabs on this thread:

Which is your favorite dragon pairing from The New Solare?

DD: Kelius x Ansar, followed by Gonuret x Sindri and Emyve x Ruthed. (Not to bust Madhal x Ilohir's chops, they're the most laid back pair, in my opinion)

Toma: Gonuret x Sindri, followed by Kelius x Ansar. Madhal x Ilohir and Emyve x Ruthed are tied. Though, Madhal x Ilohir are my second favorite pair to draw.

Dragon Sillies

Camping Cuties-

Chibi Emyve: *after setting up a small camp next to a lake* Now, don't stray too far...and no chasing animals!

Chibi Ruthed: Fiiiiiine. *goes over to hug him*

Chibi Emyve: *kisses the top of his head* Explore carefully unless I'm with you. But, I suggest you explore on your own for now, as I have a book I would like to finish. Let me know when you get back before entering the tent. *zips himself in and pulls the book back out...the title reads 1001 ways to propose*

Chibi Ruthed: *snickers* Makes me wonder what you're reading that you don't want me to see. *goes to explore for a bit but comes back within the hour* Are you still reading?? It's boring looking around by myself!

Chibi Emyve: *quickly puts the book away and unzips the tent, tugging Chibi Ruthed in with him* Hmm, I can't concentrate for very long without you, either, my mischief.

Chibi Ruthed: *plops next to him, rests his head in his lap, and wraps his arms around his waist* What were you reading anyways? You normally don't shoo me off like that, even when it's some textbook. *pouts*

Chibi Emyve: *threads his fingers through Chibi Ruthed's hair and strokes it* An informative book that will help me figure out how to plan something, that's all.

Chibi Ruthed: Now you're just making me more curious! *closes his eyes as he gets more comfortable*

Chibi Emyve: *lightly massages his scalp* You will know soon, I promise.

Chibi Ruthed: Well then, I guess I’ll try and be patient. *laughs a bit* Now stop putting me to sleep so we can explore together!

The Prettiest of Them All-

Chibi Ruthed: Chibi Emyve’s prettier than you, so shut up!

Chibi Madhal: *sports an indignant expression on his face* Excuse me?

Chibi Ilohir: I still think you're more attractive, Chibi Madhal.

Chibi Madhal: *smothers Chibi Ilohir to his chest, petting him and clinging to him* See? Not everyone shares your opinion, Chibi Ruthed!

(Chibi Sindri and Chibi Gonuret chose wisely not to comment)

Chibi Ilohir: *laughs a little*

Chibi Ruthed: Whatever you say. I still think Chibi Emyve's got ya beat.

Chibi Emyve: *tries to hide his blushing unsuccessfully with a hand*

Chibi Madhal: *huffs and takes Chibi Ilohir's hand, dragging him away* Come, love, leave Chibi Ruthed with his...delusions!

Chibi Ilohir: o-okay *follows after him and shakes his head*

Chibi Ruthed: Awwww, you're blushing! *pokes Chibi Emyve’s cheeks*

Chibi Emyve: *takes his hand and kisses the tip of Chibi Ruthed's finger* I am most pleased that you find me to be appealing...and I am rather humbled.

Chibi Ruthed: *blushes a little* Well, yeah! I mean, you're literally mister tall, tan, and handsome! And you’re smart, to boot! *hugs him, smiles, and laughs* And you're all mine!

War of the Braids-

Chibi Kelius: Chibi Sindri's hair is longer than Chibi Gonuret’s and never does anything but a ponytail.

Chibi Gonuret: Chibi Sindri's hair is usually fancied up by Chibi Ansar on special occasions, not by me.

Chibi Kelius: *a jealous glint in his eyes* You should be the one to do it from now on! *huffs* Should I...grow my hair out?

Chibi Ansar: What? Kel, your hair's fine the way it is. I’ve just always played with Chibi Sindri's hair.

Chibi Sindri: Just like I’ve always messed his up! *ruffles up Chibi Ansar's curls*

Chibi Kelius: Can't you just play with mine instead? *shoves Chibi Sindri aside* You stay out of this.

Chibi Ansar: I do play with yours! And don't push him like that. *huffs*

Chibi Kelius: I did it gently. *glares at Chibi Gonuret* You! Take care of your husband. *pouts back at Chibi Ansar* Isn't that still considered cheating? Playing with someone else's hair that isn't your partner's or your own?

Chibi Gonuret: *opens his mouth to say something, but Chibi Kelius hisses*

Chibi Kelius: Stay out of this.

Chibi Ansar: How's that even cheating? Besides, it's not like I’m saying I’m in love with someone else's hair, dummy!

Chibi Kelius: *whimpers* You're in love with his hair!? That's it, I think someone needs to repent! *lifts Chibi Ansar over his shoulder and walks away to their room, locking the door behind them*

Chibi Sindri: *looks towards Chibi Gonuret* Is it really that big of a deal?

Chibi Gonuret: No, no it's not, despite what Chibi Kelius is saying. He’s being his usual ridiculous self. Are all grassland dragons as jealous as he is? Maybe we need to make a visit to the grasslands and find out one day.

Chibi Sindri: Chibi Madhal’s not even that bad. Ilohir’s played with my hair before. Though that could be because he can assure Madhal he has nothing to worry about pretty easily.

Chibi Gonuret: Madhal’s vain enough to believe that Ilohir would never cheat on him in any way.

Chibi Sindri: Very true. *kisses his cheek and hugs him before laughing* Do I need to play with your hair before you get jealous and feel left out?

Chibi Gonuret: *half-smirks* Hmm, I don't know...you haven't brushed mine lately. And I might need another kiss for reassurance.

Chibi Sindri: *laughs again and kisses him on the lips* I’ll get one of their brushes since they're busy braiding.

Chibi Gonuret: *leads him back to their own room* Maybe not just yet...

--

Chibi Ansar: I didn't even mean it that way!!

Chibi Kelius: *flops Chibi Ansar onto the bed and climbs over him, settling his own weight on his forearms as he peers down at the beige dragon* How are you going to make it up to me?

Chibi Ansar: What did I even do!? You were the one twisting my words!

Chibi Kelius: *taps Chibi Ansar's nose* If you keep insisting on playing with Chibi Sindri's hair, I'll have to spank you.

Chibi Ansar: You act like i never play with yours. Why are you so jealous about it anyways? You know he's my best friend. You’re my lifemate, dummy.

Chibi Kelius: And as your lifemate, it is my duty to demand affection.

Chibi Ansar: You're certainly demanding. *kisses him and then runs his fingers through Chibi Kelius’s hair* Well, one thing I like about your hair besides its color is it's both thick and soft.

Chibi Kelius: *practically purring* Ah, so you do love me!

The Case of the Humping Bunnies-

Chibi Ruthed: *babysitting the rabbit trio* ...And, so, poor bunny Emyve had to counsel bunny Astral and Kinky Kit for fighting each other so much.*shoves bunny Little Em's face close to each of the other two bunnies's faces* And then...*sets bunny Little Em down* The most wooooondrous thing! *picks Kinky Kit up and plops him on Astral* The two of them were found humping each other out of love!

--

Chibi Kelius: *shudders* I just felt the darkest chill of my life...

--

Chibi Emyve: *frowns* What are you doing, my mischief?

Chibi Ruthed: *pouts* I caught Kinky Kit humping Astral, but no matter what I do, he refuses to hump him while I'm looking.

Chibi Emyve: ...

-later on that day-

Chibi Ansar: *eyes widen like saucers* You don't say...*glares at Kelius as he walks in the room* Maybe I have to keep a closer eye on him...perhaps those fights are really only excuses to hump.

Chibi Ruthed: *snickers*

--

Chibi Gonuret: *shudders* I felt a strange chill just now...

Madhal’s Pantene Pro-V Hair and Top 10 Magazine-

Thirdly: Madhal's hairstyle took me like an hour to draw. Every lock had to look smooth and perfect.

Toma: It's okay, I remember a picture I did of Gretel and her ringlet curls. I spent more time on her hair than anything else.

Thirdly: And that's the good side of Madhal's hairstyle too, at least it looks like a fishtail braid.

Toma: Yes, I love his hair!

Thirdly: Shiny ass Pantene Pro-v hair. If there were such things as commercials in their world, they'd have hired him for every single hair product commercial. His hair would be blowing and swaying more than Pocahontas's during 'colors of the wind.'

Toma: OMFG. I can see it clearly in my head, too.

Thirdly: Ilohir all mesmerized. I better stop now, the silliness has overflowed.

--

Chibi Reporter: How does it feel to be married to one of Dragon Magazine's sexiest dragons?

Chibi Ilohir: *blushes* Uuuuh...no comment?

Chibi Madhal: *opens up the magazine and preens when he sees Gonuret in third place and he's in second...and then he frowns* Wait, I'm second? Who the hell is-? *turns the page to see a full spread centerfold of Emyve sprawled on a black satin bed naked with his privates covered with a silk pillow- WHAT THE FUCK?? *flips the page to see a 6 page interview with Ruthed showing Emyve off*

Ruthed: Let's just say that it's a good thing that the magazine is censored! His foot size is-

Chibi Madhal: *crumples the magazine up in frustration*

-some time later-

Chibi Ilohir: *rubbing his back as Chibi Madhal whimpers* There, there, you know you're number one in my eyes.

--

Chibi Sindri: My Lunare, take a look at this...apparently we're all in the top 10 of their sexiest dragons list!

Chibi Gonuret: Whoa, I'm number three? They're being too kind, ha ha.

Chibi Sindri: I think they're being a little too fair, if you ask me. You're always number one to me. *smooch*

Chibi Gonuret: As are you to me. Out of curiosity, who's number 1?

Chibi Sindri: *flips to it* Oh boy...

Chibi Gonuret: Oh no, I hope Madhal doesn't see this!

Chibi Sindri: *outright laughing* Ruthed would make sure he would!

Chibi Gonuret: *winces* His ego's definitely going to be more than a little bruised, I'm sure of it.

--

Chibi Ruthed: *hanging up a special framed full poster of Emyve over their bed, his tail swaying* ...There, perfect!

Chibi Emyve: ...Is that really necessary, my mischief? You do see me every day.

Chibi Ruthed: It's more than just a centerfold, love. *grins* It's a trophy.

--

Chibi Ansar: *scowling* Tch! Did you have to pose topless for those moneygrubbing magazine editors?

Chibi Kelius: *smirks* Is that jealousy I detect from the dragon married to the fifth sexiest dragon on the planet? If I'm not mistaken, you're in nothing but swimming trunks in your photo.

Chibi Ansar: *blushes, but still frowns* But, with me there isn't much to see, anyway!

Chibi Kelius: I beg to differ. *hefts him over his shoulder* You have plenty to see... *caresses Chibi Ansar's butt* The best parts are for my eyes only.

--

Thirdly: Oh! The order would have been- 1.Emyve, 2. Madhal, 3. Gonuret, 4. Sindri (yeeep), 5. Kelius, 6. Ruthed, 7. Ilohir, 8. Ansar...

Thirdly: I can just picture Ansar's article- Alright, folks, we understand that this is supposed to be the top 100 sexiest dragons. But, cute can be sexy, too. And our favorite Visionary has it in abundance!

Gonuret and Sindri probably had a special back to back article too stating stuff like- Oour royal pair are as precious as they are sexy. There is no doubt in our minds that they were made for one another. Their spots on the list were interchangeable because they are both beautiful in their own ways.

Ruthed's title was "The Lean and Charismatic Machine"- Just look at that flawless golden skin...it begs the question if he sneaks off to a private beach to tan naked, because he makes everyone else feel like they have farmer's tans.

Ilohir would have read something like- Ilohir has the sexy boy next door vibe, the sweet and kind type...we see him helping elderly dragons cross the street and simply swoon.

Emyve’s- Tall, dark, and handsome doesn't even begin to describe the dangerously handsome Gallant Emyve. Sexy librarians have nothing on him. As if his mysterious nature and deadly good looks weren't enough, his luscious and deep voice make male phone sex operators sound like mere children. When our magazine crew set out to work on this list, he was unanimously ushered to the number one spot without any reluctance! And, ladies and gentlemen, we have quite the treat for you in this issue of Dragon Magazine...(placing the sixth spot on our list himself) the one and only Gallant Ruthed has agreed to a slightly personal interview about the most frequent questions we have about his perfect husband. Feast your eyes and read on!

Thirdly: ...something like that.

Toma: OMFG.

Thirdly: I read a lot of my mom's People magazines.

Thirdly: Wouldn't ever happen, as they don't have that kind of entertainment in their world.

Toma: It was beautiful, all the same.

Thirdly: And all of that from talk of Madhal's hair!

Toma: Look at what you do, Madhal!

Chibi Madhal: *whimpers* But, I'm clearly the more beautiful one! And my hair is softer!!

Chibi Ilohir: *still petting and hugging* Of course, it’s softer.

Chibi Ruthed: *to fan the evil flames, snickers and rubs Emyve's long locks all over his body while moaning* Soooo luscious!

Chibi Madhal: *bursts into tears*

Chibi Ilohir: *glares at Ruthed* Pay him no mind!

Chibi Emyve: *sighs and tugs Ruthed along* That's enough from you, my mischief.

Chibi Ruthed: *purrs* Whatever the sexiest Dragon in the world says, I will obey!
