This is to decide which one is top CW and which will be runner-up. You can mention in a post if there is another that beats out this year's Crystalwings, if you wish. :)

~~~A young magi sits in a glade, passed out asleep. She has a bunch of eggs and sleeping hatchlings scattered around her, one in her arms. There's a note that says "you're free to hold my eggs and hatchlings a while but my kitsune is watching you. don't steal them, you'll regret it."

Remy's Drink

Emerald Isle Image - 105 Image

Stuff falling down your screen:
Image Image Image Image Image Image

Normal text:
You take a tentative sip out of the uniquely shaped bottle Remy offers you, and are pleasantly surprised of the fresh and festive taste of the liquid.

Token/Hatchie text:
A-ha! You wondered if there was something suspicious about the tiny twitch on the corner of Remy's mouth when he served the drink to you, and now you have proof, as something very much not consumable clinks on the table from your vial! Why would anyone put these kind of artificial flavours in a drink!

*The tokens are the same as the stuff falling down your screen.
*I purchased 30 drinks got all 6 tokens and 6 hatchlings.
*I got only this year hatchies. Anybody got something else from the drink?

Looking for a male Gallium. These new CW's are spectacular! I'm having a hard time wondering which one I'll hoard as I like all of them... again. XD

*Edit* Never mind. I found a male, so the hatchie sets are complete. I just need the descriptions of them, then... await the adults. I found it's much easier to post and edit without being under the influence of Remy's drink. Then again, I like his drinks he concocts. XD

Here's the other hatchling descriptions.
Spoiler
Image
If kept in a warm environment, a gallium crystalwing hatchling will act like any other crystalwing of its age. It will explore tirelessly, not a single thing left unturned in its path. Those who have experience with young crystalwings would expect these creatures to be rather slow and maybe a little clumsy, however, gallium hatchlings are not as heavy, which makes them twice as fast in their daily explorations. If one considers a gallium hatchling has had enough adventures for the day, the temperature around it should be simply lowered, and the crystalwing will slowly solidify and take a nap. This has no negative effects on them. They will come back to life and be as cheerful as ever once the temperature has risen again.

Image
Porcelain crystalwing hatchlings are shy creatures, often preferring to stick with others of their kind than to explore. As they are small in size and unable to carry people around just yet, many magis take turns socializing with them lest they would become feral. They are very fragile as younglings, though, and only those with experience are allowed to handle them. If by chance one of them breaks there are small chances of getting it back together to its initial state. Fortunately, this does not happen often. The porcelain they are made of hardens in time and soon enough small, peaceful creatures are allowed to climb on them for short rides as a form of training.

Image
Hatchling marinevra crystalwings grow by splitting apart their egg and rearranging the pieces to form their bodies. These hatchlings are inevitably tangled in their own strings, resembling a terribly made puppet. Kind magi may want to help untangle them, but it's best to just leave small bits of wood, string, and fabric nearby so the hatchling can use them to help itself grow. Though hatchlings spend most of their early days stationary and at risk of accidentally being tossed out in the garbage, they will eventually sort themselves out and become much more active as they transition into adults.

Image
Plushie crystalwings hatch when the cloth shell of the egg reshapes itself into a form with eyes and limbs to contain the increasing amount of stuffing inside. The hatchlings are floppy and limp and are generally content to lie still, though they follow the comings and goings of magi with their heads, watching with their bright, glassy eyes. They enjoy cuddles, making soft chirps of contentment when picked up and held, though care must be taken as they are still growing and their messy seams can’t hold in all their stuffing properly yet. While not strictly necessary, hatchlings appreciate being fed bits of cloth, thread, and shiny beads.
In case this will help, here's the adults with the descriptions and sprites. I believe dimorphism was only seen in the Porcelains and Plushies, but absolutely double check on that. :wave:
Spoiler
Image
With a penchant for stealing and gnawing on shiny stones, adult gallium crystalwings can easily be mistaken for their live counterparts. The shards these creatures sometimes accidentally ingest become part of them, perfectly blending in with their silvery bodies. Always changing shape when kept warm, these crystalwings are notorious for perching on hard-to-reach surfaces, leaving droplets of gallium behind them. If for some reason the temperature drops while they are perched somewhere high, they will remain immobile, watching over a room like gargoyles. Playful by nature, the gallium crystalwings like to wrestle with other creatures, sometimes grappling their playmate with their ever-changing bodies, covering their unfortunate friend in gallium. However, the metal they are made of is not toxic, and they can easily be handled without the risk of getting poisoned.

ImageImage
Adult porcelain crystalwings are more than just sentient statues. They will happily float around and pick up people for rides in the sky. They especially like to do this during festivities, silently letting their riders enjoy the party. As they do not need to sleep or rest, they are always sought out for nightly trips during celebrations. Aside from festivity times, they are the perfect companions when it comes to lazy trips. With endless patience, the porcelain crystalwings will wait for as longs as needed, until their riders are done admiring the scenery. Although they do not require anything in return, many of those who ride on their backs reward them with shiny trinkets. Necklaces of colorful pearls or polished stones are the most common gift and the porcelain crystalwings never refuse them.

Image
Adult marinevra crystalwings are only about a foot tall, and move in wobbly, jerky movements that make them look quite adorably goofy. Their strings are held stiffly above their heads, as though someone is holding them up; if a magi were to take hold of the control bar, they would relax, but it's considered rude to manipulate a marinevra against their will. Even as adults, marinevra often seek attention, clambering onto tables and wobbling onto whatever their magi is working on - or eating - until their magi agrees to play.

ImageImage
Adult plushie crystalwings have strong, neat seams that hold in their stuffing properly and have more structure than their hatchling counterparts. They will move around of their own volition and even sometimes fly, but are content to sit still for hours, fixing their magi companion with their large, shiny eyes until their magi gives in and cuddles with them.

Image
The strange apparatus that is a ferrofluid crystalwing hatchling keeps attracting iron and small floating bits, growing and growing, until one day their magi companion wakes up to find it has reassembled itself again, into a distinctly crystalwing shape. Bands of the spiky black liquid hold more of the strange charged gems all along a body made of smooth, silvery liquid, though the two materials seem to shift and change into each other at will. A ferrofluid crystalwing's liquid body allows it to explore crevices that look far smaller than it should be able to fit into, and it can manipulate the shape of its spikes to match most textures. Curious and mischievous by nature, these skills are often used to startle the ferrofluid crystalwing's magi companion, usually much to the crystalwing's amusement and its magi's chagrin.
Would've helped with these sooner, but I think my computer was drunk up until a couple hours ago. :lol:
