Letter #6 goes to my Adventure Time OC! Even after all this time I’m still really proud of her design and color scheme. They’re relaxing to work with~
if… you’re writing a direct sequel to a movie…. it’s your goddamn job to answer the questions set up in the first movie in an interesting and satisfying way… it’s your job to work within the framework the first movie established… is it subversive to disreguard the first movie entirely? sure. is it bad writing? absolutely.

When you see an animal with its eyes set to the front, like wolves, or humans, that’s usually a predator animal.

If you see an animal with its eyes set farther back, though—to the side—that animal is prey.

Now look at this dragon.

See those eyes?

They’re to the SIDE.

This raises an interesting—and terrifying—question.

What in the name of Lovecraft led evolution to consider DRAGONS…
As PREY?

What species hunts dragons for sport?
What species glorifies the slaughter of dragons as the sport of kings?
What species are you?
Holy shit.
If yall had payed any attention to that dragon in particular you would have gotten your answer.
While predatory animals do tend to have forward facing eyes in order to detect prey, this is not a constant in the realm of birds for a specific reason : not all birds are APEX predators despite being carnivores.
Take for example a duck. Although it naturally eats snails, fish eggs, algae, etc, it is not an apex predatory removed from the food chain and thus has offset eyes like so

While an APEX predatory such as the bald eagle has a flatter, narrower face that allows for forward facing eyes to detect prey at distance and grasp depth perception better, but this is still not perfectly forward eyes like mammalian apex predators.

Now, back to that dragon yall put forth earlier to provoke the question of what factor caused an elongated snout and hybrid offset eyes to occur.
The problem lies in the fact that Smaug was a tiny runt of a dragon, just like the duck is to any APEX bird such as an Eagle.

Take for example this size chart depicting dragons in that Universe and their respective size. It would be incredibly easy to understand why a smaller dragon such as SMAUG would have offset eyes as a flying predator.
Lastly, I would like to state that this could have all been mitigated by simply understanding what dragons are (in theory) REPTILES.
Reptiles break the mold for forward, flat faces altogether.
Take the Komodo Dragon. APEX predator with no competition besides from others of it’s species. Notice the eyes, while being able to position forward, are still offset and on the sides of the snout unlike mammalian predators

Monocular vision is not defined by eyes on the side of the head, but rather eyes that field of view does not overlap with the other (ruling out maximum depth perception).
Although reptiles have offset eyes (and dragons in theory) that does not mean their vision would fail to overlap.
Also, it would be laughable to consider humans as a reason for a flying god of death to evolve eyes to see something that could never catch it in the air, yet alone hunt it from there.
EEEE!!!
If you wore a vr headset linked to a camera drone that was set to follow you from a few feet behind you could live in third person.

If you can’t dissociate naturally store bought is fine
