ALRIGHT, I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS FANDOM HATING ON KESTREL
She did NOT abuse the DoD! It was simply discipline. She was trying to keep order with the war falling apart outside. Even if she was rude, it is totally justified, as she was grieving the loss of Sky and Peril. She likely couldn't even bear to look at the dragonets after what happened to her own.
Really, it is their fault for being so annoying. If they had not annoyed her, she would not have lashed out. If they had simply done what she had told them to, they would have been more prepared for the "real world".
If Kestrel had not died, she would have redeemed herself and had a perfectly functional family dynamic with Peril and Sky. If she had not lost them in the first place, she would have been a perfect mother.
I also don't hate Kestrel because I ship my WoFsona, Lotus Petals, with her. The two are meant for each other, Kestrel just needs someone to fix her. Lotus can do just that.
Anyways, off to write some Kestrel x Reader fanfiction, where the reader is a RainWing and there are no insults about that whatsoever! Because Kestrel is not prejudiced against other dragons (especially Lotus)!
