My answer: Chocolate chip
Winter would definitely abuse his magic just to get Hailstorm back. Edit: As for me, I would NEVER trust myself with animus magic... That kind of power can corrupt even the purest of minds. That kind of power would destroy the entire world.
I wouldn't trust myself with animus magic as I often talk to myself and random objects. (e.g "I wish I has that cool LEGO set instead of that person" or "Book, STAY on that page! Don't lose your place!) Imagine the chaos I could accidentally create!

I LOVE your what ifs. They're always so well written! Thanks for making this! Congrats on 20k, by the way! You totally deserve it! Here's some ideas: What if Sunny was bitten by the Dragonbite viper instead of Clay? What if Cricket could be mind controlled by Queen Wasp? What if Darkstalker and Whiteout switched roles? What if Anemone or Turtle went mad? I always love what ifs. It's so interesting to think how much the plot could change if one little detail was switched or if a character made this choice instead of that.
It'd be interesting to see how being an animus would affect Winter. I don't believe he'd turn into another Darkstalker because A) the Icewings only let their animus cast one big spell during their lifetimes, and B) despite all his bluster Winter doesn't want to hurt others. Nature vs nurture was a big theme in his book, his upbringing made him feel like he always has to assert himself but when it came to throwing hands he only does it when he believes it's necessary, not impulsively lashing out like a lot of people seeem to think. In his book Winter said that if he were an animus he'd use his one spell to create a place where scavengers could be studied.
That would be so bad winter would be like “I’ll rip your face off and throw it in the ocean!” Well…. Worded like that I don’t think it would happen but a little different wording and poof
I wonder who got the Pyrite mask in this version of events. Perhaps by the time the war is over whoever that dragon is might also have wanted to keep the enchantment after being freed from it, Pyrite and Hailstorm could be friends with each other?
I love this idea! I had a winter AU idea a while ago with the same idea but couldn’t really make a good plot of it but I love how you did it here! I was waiting for the part with him going to JMA and all but it makes more sense the icewings would keep their only animus in the ice kingdom.
man when Darkstalker came i wonder how that would play out if he still was a animus, i can imagine if he still got mind controlled he would be even more angry at himself for letting him be mind controlled..
here are some what if ideas: What if the eye of the onyx didn’t kill Blister and thought she was worthy? What if Clay died from the dragonbite viper? What if Gill didn’t go crazy? What if Winter freed all the Frozen IceWings in the Diamond Caves? What if Darkstalker choose the good path in darkstalker?
Oo, could you possibly do a ‘what if Sundew decided to leave with Willow and join the SapWings’? Love the videos, its so amazing to see someone posting frequent updates about current wof news like you do. Keep up the amazing work!
Winter is one of my favorite characters! I do wish either you or Cyprus could do what if Moon chose Winter, in hope for all of the Wintereatcher fans out there also because of his character development, his character arc was so fascinating. (there aren’t many but I know a lot of people love WinterWatcher) including me. But in the end I’m glad Winter found peace he’s a great character!
To be honest if i had animus magic I have a way to make the world perfect: Cast a spell that would create different universes, and each one is perfect for a specific person.
This video gave me an idea for another what if. I don't know if you have already done but, What if Moonwatcher was an animus? I think that it would probably change some stuff in the story, in a cool interesting way But if you have already done that, I'll be going to watch that right after I finish these two videos!
Hey there! I was the person in ur discord that requested "what if moon never went to jade academy"!! This may sound like im impatient, but i just want to know, do you ever think of doing it??
Now I’m just imagining a timeline where he still ends up in the jade winglet and there are two animi there. If Qibli felt insecure when he found out about Turtle, I can’t imagine what this would do to him…🫤
Honestly, I thought Winter being an animus would be a disaster kind of story, but this is SO MUCH better! It's beautiful to see how Winter having powers just took his brotherly bind with Hailstorm to new heights
PLEASE DO A WHAT IF QIBLI ACCEPTED DARKSTLAKER'S OFFER! that would be amazing! Animus dragons have tried to bring dragons back but have they ever time traveled? I think that DARKSTLAKER was kinda dumb. He could've brought foeslayer back if he had just used his Animus magic to find out exactly what happened to her and then break the enchantment
I feel like he would become another albatross. And the world would be destroyed. And Moon might, be gone. Yay I’m watching in the first 15 mins of this being posted. Anyone notice the red IceWing blood
Honestly, Animus are kind of accidently causing way too many bad things to happen so they probably shouldn't exist. Also, I just came back to your channel, your voice changed so much!
It would be really cool if you could make a what-if of something that might actually happen in the books or arc 4 What if Peacemaker/Darkstalker found one of Qibli's earings?
@@DogloverlikesdogeA part 2 of a “What if Clearsight never left Darkstalker?” “What if one of Clearsight’s dragonets had went to Pantala instead of her?”
Winter has been raised his whole life to think he can only perform one spell for his tribe. In the moment, he panicked and let the tree fall. It was a stressful situation, and knowing IceWing tradition, he probably thought that was all he could do. He was terrified of what the royal family would do if they found out he had even used his magic that once on Hailstorm. But after years without his brother, he didn't care anymore. As for the blood, I mentioned in the pinned comment it was an error :)
only just started the video, predicting he does something evil and kills at least one dragon edit: at around 3:30 crimson liquid is mentioned, was that the skywing atop him squeezing him so hard they started bleeding?
@@Dogloverlikesdoge sadge, I wanted to comment on the actual story being really fun- though, one thing, how could Winter *get* animus magic? IDEA grandfather was a kidnapped animus from the seawing tribe, seduced and used to get animus back to the tribe narwhal and tundra aren’t their real parents, they’re just the ones who raised them
Hi moon! I have a question. Could I write a What If...? for you? Any topic too. I just wanted to see if you'd wanted to take a little stress off your shoulders. Also, I would be honored, even if you just read it.
I appreciate the offer! I find a lot of fun in writing these, so I plan on always writing all the content you'll find on my channel. But I'd love to read the stories you make for your own!
He's had it drilled into him so much by the royal IceWings that he can only have his one spell. If he casts any more, he risks insanity. That's what the IceWings did back all throughout history -- each animus was only allowed to perform one great gift for the tribe, and then never use their magic again. Winter had been taught this all his life, so he didn't really think about using it twice after he already used it on the tree. (But him using it twice, and technically his "one gift" (now being two for Hailstorm) will come into play during a potential part two 👀
@@Dogloverlikesdoge so he was okay for using his magic to pretend that hailstorm was an animus but not to kill the SkyWings? It would have been better if ruby just believed him that he was their animus
@@Jack-g5s1i Winter was pretty young here, as this was years before Jade Mountain Academy. I'm not sure how well he would've thought that through, especially with the IceWings likely not wanting to start a war with another tribe just yet
@@Dogloverlikesdoge They WERE in war though and ruby says that scarlet would hunt them down if he used his magic on them and winter obviously knew even without magic scarlet couldn’t survive in the ice kingdom
RAAAHH I HATE HOW THE ICEWING ANIMUSS JUST POOFED AFTER THEY TOOK ARTIC. LOLIKE, DIAMOND, YOU HAD MORE CHILDRENNNNNNN RAAHHHH THERE SHOULD BE MORE ANIMUSSEEESEESESESE GAHH. THIS WOULD MAKE. SENSE. LIKE, WHY IS TURTLE SPECIAL???? THERE SHOULD BE ANIMUSES ALL THROUGH THE ICEWING ROYAL FAMILYY

My answer: Chocolate chip
Gingerbread cookies.
I hate chocolate.
choccy chip :D
Chocolate chip
Chocolate chip cookies 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪
Chocolate chip.
But I'd love to see Qibli's reaction to his clawmate being an animus.
Would he be jealous?
Would they still be friends?
Winter would definitely abuse his magic just to get Hailstorm back.

YAAAYYYYYYY THE QUEEN UPLOADED ANOTHER VIDEO!!!! AND ALSO IT'S ABOUT MY FAVORITE ICEWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YIPPEE YIPPEE
TWO MINUTES AGO IS CRAZY FOR ME 💀💀💀
8:33 jmagine winter enchsnted himselfntk have red blood long ago and thats why he was bleeding red
Oh um icewing blood is blue 8:35 but mistakes or not this video is a work of art
man when Darkstalker came i wonder how that would play out if he still was a animus, i can imagine if he still got mind controlled he would be even more angry at himself for letting him be mind controlled..
here are some what if ideas:
What if the eye of the onyx didn’t kill Blister and thought she was worthy?
What if Clay died from the dragonbite viper?
What if Gill didn’t go crazy?
What if Winter freed all the Frozen IceWings in the Diamond Caves?
What if Darkstalker choose the good path in darkstalker?
Finally! a what if about an animus that doesn't leave me with a sad feeling.
AMAZING JOB 👏

@Dogloverlikesdoge I legitimately think winter would have done genocide or something If he ever had animus powers 😅 I fear him more then peril
Omg I love this story wings of fire would have been so much different if winter did have animus power! And BTW I have never been this early!

Maybe another what if could be what if pantala had animus magic?
What if cricket was a animus on pantala?
yay
What if Hawthorn never gave Queen Wasp the breath of evil
What if Wren met Sunny during her time in Burn's stronghold?
If winter was an animus arc 2 would be really short or really long. 😅
What would happen if an animus wishes a forbidden wish
3:15 - Icewings have dark blue blood, not red. Agh, it's an easy one to default to when writing unless you keep reminding yourself. LOL
Yay winter!
