Top 10 Best Wings of Fire Couples and Ships

The Top Ten
1 Fathom x Indigo

These guys are so cute! I mean, is there a better ship, right? They were apart for so long but they clearly love each other (I blame Queen Pearl for that bit), so they are absolutely perfect for each other. Their childhood is so cute, and even their children display their past so well. But if anyone can think of an actually good ship name, please comment!

I knew right away that this ship would be number one. I am not afraid to say that this ship is just one step away from being perfect! If Darkstalker hadn't interfered with their friendship, it would have been my favorite thing in WOF. The ship has everything it takes to earn this spot.

The part where Fathom thought he could no longer be friends with Indigo was heart-wrenching, but in the end, everything turned out to be great! I absolutely love how they were childhood friends and are loyal to each other. I remember reading about Fathom and Indigo's childhood. Indigo made a cake for Fathom on his birthday when no one else even remembered it, and there was a time when Fathom and Indigo were splashing paint together. This is just my opinion, but I think Fathom and Indigo are by far my favorite ship in WOF.

2 Glory x Deathbringer

In my opinion, this is the best one. Also, these are the actual Wings of Fire couples: Clay x Peril, Tsunami x Riptide, Glory x Deathbringer, and Starflight x Sunny. That last one is because Starflight and Sunny actually like each other. Fatespeaker is just obsessed with Starflight, which isn't real romance.

Also, this art is fantastic! My judging for it: 10, 10, 10 (11, that is). In my opinion, Swordtail is a selfish brat. He clearly stated in "The Lost Continent" that (quote) "I care about Luna. That's it" (unquote). Not his mom, not Blue's other relatives - just Luna, who is also bad.

I mean, Cricket saves Blue's life, and in "The Flames of Hope," Luna says that it's unfair that Cricket escapes from the Breath of Evil but not Blue and Swordtail. Talk about ungrateful! But Glory and Deathbringer? No problem at all.

Glory and Deathbringer. Everyone mentions the stupid age gap! It's also hilarious how Deathbringer keeps trying to protect Glory and then he ignores the fact that she can protect herself. Glory is one of my favorites so I try to ship her with the best dragon for her.

There are some people in the Fandom who think that Glory x Tsunami is good, but it's so toxic! Honestly everyone knows this because it was been written in words. If you didn't notice it in the Hidden Kingdom then you should re-read it to make sure that it was there. Glory also saved Deathbringer's life twice. Once when he attacked the dragonets in book three, the Hidden Kingdom, and then again when he wanted to send a message to Blaze but Glory wouldn't let him. This ship is really cute! It's also currently holding the Rainforest together.

A king of the NightWings (Deathbringer) and the queen of the RainWings (Glory). The two dragon tribes should start calling them Queen Glory and King Deathbringer.

3 Peril x Clay

This is the best ship and you know it! Peril loves Clay, and you can tell. We later find out that Clay likes Peril too. Clay cares so much for Peril, and it's adorable. When they first meet, you can tell they had a connection from the first night. Peril asked him for food, and I just think it's so sweet!

When Peril and Clay met, I was like, they both like each other! They may sometimes try to hide it, but it's obvious that they like each other. And when they are together, they look so cute! You can tell that they both care about each other. Vote Peril x Clay!

This is the first couple and romance you start to hear about in this series. It just makes sense since nobody else can touch her anyway, and they just seem good together. Clay is sweet and compassionate, and you can tell Peril really loves him.

4 Blue x Cricket

These two little dragons are perfect for each other, and have clearly loved each other since the moment they met. It's also so cute how they don't know that the other one likes them and are both so nervous to say anything about it. I shipped them the moment they first spoke. They are perfect for each other and that has been getting clearer through the books.

And it is so obvious when Luna brings her to meet their family. I love that scene. I believe that these two dragons definitely have a future together and I would love to see more of them in the future. P.S thanks for reading!!

Cute little dragonets. Together. Perfect. Blue and Cricket clearly love each other. In The Lost Continent, Blue thought it would be too late to say goodbye. Swordtail also notices that Blue loves Cricket. And in The Hive Queen, Cricket knows she loves Blue.

Even though you might note that Cricket loves Blue a little more for his appearance than personality. I'm not saying that Cricket loved him for only his appearance, just saying a little more than his personality. Blue loves Cricket more for her personality. I hope one day they have dragonets together. It would be lovely.

5 Riptide x Tsunami

They are just so different! And Tsunami's thoughts point out how handsome she thinks he is. This is such an early ship, and that makes it a classic! SHIP SHIP SHIP!!!

Tsunami and Riptide are so cute together! They both share some great qualities that can really keep this couple going. The only thing keeping them apart is Queen Coral and, let's face it, Tsunami is so headstrong. I don't really think her mom can stop her from being with Riptide.

In Winter Turning, Riptide was so excited to hear that Tsunami was thinking about him. I don't think he's ever going to hesitate on being with Tsunami. I already think the possible names of their kids are going to be so cute. Riptide and Tsunami have such adventurous personalities that there is no way their kids are not going to get stuck on another journey through Pyrrhia. I think this couple will make a really interesting family to go on an adventure with.

6 Sundew x Willow

I have two words for you: Great. Ship. It is the first and probably the only true lesbian ship. They need more of these. This is a great ship. I just finished The Poison Jungle a while back, so I understand what the ship is like.

It's funny how Sundew is sneaking away in the dead of night to meet another dragon from her own tribe, but also not from her tribe for certain reasons. It's also amusing how Sundew is supposed to have dragonets with Mandrake, but instead, she's going to have dragons with a dragon that is not nervous and will take revenge on a frog for Sundew. It was so sweet how Willow was so worried when she didn't see the jade frog on the stone for so many nights.

I look forward to seeing more of this ship in the future. - CClarity the Animus NightWing

I love these two, and I love that it's a lesbian ship. Though I am not part of the LGBTQ+ community, I completely support it and have many friends who are part of it. I also think, though, that it is kind of weird that Sundew is sneaking out at night to meet with someone from her own tribe, even though they are technically different tribes.

But either way, I love this ship. It's adorable, and Sunlow is just simply amazing. I hope to see more of it in the near future.

7 Fatespeaker x Starflight

I ship this over Starflight/Sunny, as Fatespeaker clearly loves Starflight back, and Sunny isn't even sure she loves Starflight. I think it is super sweet how Fatespeaker took care of him while he was recovering in the rainforest.

I'd rather ship Starflight with Sunny. Fatespeaker clearly loves Starflight, but I don't think Starflight has feelings for her. Starflight's heart already belongs to Sunny.

Fatespeaker and Starflight are a perfect couple. Fatespeaker totally cares for Starflight. Plus, they are totally cute together.

8 Qibli x Moonwatcher

How is this ship only ranked eighth? Qibli has clearly loved Moon from the beginning of the books! Honestly, this ship is much better than Winter x Moon, because that relationship would involve a lot of yelling. I think Winter would break up with Moon on day one.

Qibli and Winter both had difficult childhoods, but Qibli managed to grow up with a clever mind and was never rude to other dragons. Winter, on the other hand, is obsessed with Moon. All he does is think about her, and I believe that, as a mate, that would be overwhelming for Moon.

Also, who would rather have Moon read their mind? Qibli. Winter is too scared to even mention his crush on her, while Qibli isn't. Qibli is also supportive and kind in a way that Winter never could be. Winter even knocked a vase over on Moon.

Furthermore, Winter never had any respect for the dragons around him. He strutted around as if he owned all of Jade Mountain and ignored Moon when she asked him to stop being unkind to her. Also, their childhoods don't matter in the love triangle.

Face the facts, people: Winter never loved Moon and Moon never loved Winter. Qibli x Moon is the only logical ship in this world right now. I used to like Winterwatcher, but then I re-read book six and realized that Winter is a jerk. Moon articulated exactly why she chose Qibli in the words at the end of Darkness of Dragons. - Clarity the Animus NightWing

9 Kinkajou x Turtle

This ship is way better than Peril x Turtle. It's cute how one of them is an animus, and one is not. This also means that Turtle has always had a crush on Kinkajou. Here are the reasons I prefer this ship over Peril x Turtle:

- Kinkajou can actually touch Turtle without burning him to a crisp. Sure, Turtle accidentally made his scales harder than diamonds, but does Peril really love him? Or did he just join her adventure because he wanted to get out of Jade Mountain?

- Seriously, people, Peril likes Clay and Turtle likes Kinkajou. I know some Turtle x Peril fans might close their computers after reading this comment, but please hear me out. Turtle is pretty much already mated with Kinkajou. And all Peril thinks about is Clay, so she can't love Turtle. According to the love spell, Turtle loves Kinkajou much more than he even knows Peril.

- Turtle is an animus. I know, this sounds like evidence for the ship, but Peril probably hates animus dragons after meeting her father. He gave her an enchanted necklace so that she would forget about Clay and get rid of her firescales. And then, right after that, she started thinking about Clay again. There's no room in her mind for 'Oh, yeah, I actually love Turtle.'

This is a great ship, and I love it a lot! - Clarity the Animus NightWing

10 Anemone x Tamarin

This is the best vote: Anemone x Tamarin. Now I will explain why.

Anemone has just been controlled by an evil villain (Darkstalker) and she thinks she is going to destroy the world. She doesn't even trust her own talons.

Meanwhile, Tamarin may be blind, but she can still easily take care of herself and Kinkajou. She completely trusts her talons even though she can't see them.

They are just perfect for each other. I just love them.

Also, GO LESBIANS!

When I think about this, my heart bursts. It is just so sweet that Anemone helps Tamarin, even though she points out she doesn't need help. I also feel like Tamarin could help Anemone not lose hope in being good, as she thinks she is losing her soul because of her animus.

After reading the Guide to the Dragon World, with the confession from Anemone to Tamarin, I literally want this ship to be third, after Glorybringer and Claril.

The Contenders
11 Blaze x Glacier

I don't even know why. I wasn't going to choose this mainly because of the very different species, but something felt right about it. Blaze really loves Glacier, but Glacier just wanted to use her for land, so I ultimately felt bad for Blaze... so here we are.

Glacier is always there to help Blaze, but Blaze should make her own guards do this and not make Glacier her new bodyguard. Glacier already had a husband because I know she has a daughter named Crystal-Crystal-the-Best.

Ok, so a lot of people are saying that Glacier has a daughter. Yes, yes. But what if she had eggs with Blaze instead of an IceWing? Think about it. Snowfall is only 7 years old. Glacier could have secretly had eggs with Blaze without Blaze knowing. Support this ship forever!

12 Sunny x Starflight

What people think about is the relationship, but what they should really think about are the dragonets. Who would be a kinder, more optimistic, caring, and sensible mother? Sunny! Fatespeaker thinks she can see the future when all of her predictions are incorrect. Sunny was actually loyal and kind. Fatespeaker treated him like a toddler.

This ship has its twists and turns, but these two have always loved each other and they are not going to let go. (By the way, I'm listening to the song Dandelions, and that's why I might sound so passionate.) Sunny x Starflight is the canon relationship between Sunny and Starflight. The ship also has a cool name: Sunnyflight. Starflight has always loved Sunny, even if she's not sure about her feelings toward him. If you were paying attention while reading, you might have noticed that she has feelings for him too. - Clarity the Animus NightWing

13 Darkstalker x Fathom
14 Clearsight x Darkstalker

Clearsight and Darkstalker should be ranked much higher. For one, they are one of the few dragons that are from the same tribe, and the way Darkstalker did all those bad things because he was trying to create a brighter future is compelling. Personally, I hated the way Clearsight left him trapped in a mountain and then was already looking for another relationship. Moreover, it was a BeetleWing that Clearsight was interested in, and by doing so, she destroyed an entire tribe. It's one of the best ships in Wings of Fire because of all the tragedy and betrayal.

Polar the IceWing

Darksight/Clearstalker is a great ship. I know that Darkstalker is literally one of the most Yandere characters in the series, but that's what makes it so compelling. A dragon who would do /anything/ for his love interest and also /has/ the power to do so? I'd love to see some fanfiction about that one!

15 Moonwatcher x Winter

So really, I have two things to say, but I'll put them in different paragraphs. So, anyway, I just want to be real with everyone. I was looking up Wings of Fire facts the other day, and I finally know the exact reason that Tui T. Sutherland made Moon choose Qibli. For the new people to Wings of Fire, Tui T. Sutherland is the author. Anyway, it was because Qibli and Cliff are based off of her two sons. So, of course, she had to have the character that is based after her own son get the second greatest girl in the whole book series. So, for those people who think it was because "Winter was SO mean and OMG Qibli is just awesome!" I say this with all my respect, but you're wrong, sorry.

Also, I was going to comment on this comment I saw. It said something about fantasizing about Winter and Moon getting together, and it reminded me of how most nights I fall asleep daydreaming about Moon and Winter getting together. I don't know why, but I just felt the need to share one of my favorite daydreams like that, but I'll paraphrase it to spare you the time. Anyway, it begins at that moment in "The Flames of Hope" when Moon reveals Cottonmouth to everyone else. And in this version, Pineapple takes a shot at Moon when they're on the beach, and Winter (chuckles) just yeets himself out of the tall grass, showing that he had been following them the whole time, and blocks a venom shot with his body and face plants into the ground. Anyway, he gets up, shakes it off as if there wasn't acid slowly eating away at his arm, pounces on Pineapple, and ties him up with some vines. After he's done, he looks up at the awestruck eyes looking at him and says, "What, were you expecting the almighty hand of God himself to reach down from the heavens and save her? What did you expect me to do! Don't judge!" Anyway, Moon pounces on him with excitement, and in the fumble, kissed him half on accident but half because she really wanted to. But to sum it all up, Winter sees Qibli watching them... more

16 Qibli x Winter

Quinter is totally the cutest couple in the universe. Even though it's really unlikely, it should happen because the two of them are perfect for each other. They could probably be fine together and still be happy. I could imagine her being perfectly happy just hanging out with Kinkajou.

Also, it's very likely that they like each other. Even though, in the end of the story, Moon's probably going to end up with Quibbling and Winter with Lynx, these two would be perfect. They have both probably spent more time together than with the girls they will almost certainly end up with, and they banter a lot. Often their banter can seem like flirting.

Qibli even joked to his mom (with Winter nearby) that they would probably get married someday. His mom believed him and Winter, surprisingly, wasn't offended by it. I think these two are perfect for each other and this ship would be amazing if it actually ends up in the series.

17 Snowfall x Lynx

I'm sorry if you don't agree, but these two are perfect for each other. I mean, Winter is completely oblivious to Lynx's feelings, anyway. Also, Sky is, well, he's Sky.

I love how they go together and would be an amazing couple. It would also be really controversial to homophobic old dragons if they eventually got together, which would be amazing.

I love how Lynx supports and cares for Snowfall! Even if they don't become a thing, they would still be really funny as friends.

18 Anemone x Pike

They are just awesome. Pike is willing to protect Anemone, and Anemone lets him protect her. Sometimes they're just so cute, even though Pike is kind of hot-headed.

Pike is seriously Anemone's bodyguard! He never takes his eyes off Anemone and is always defending her from possible threats. That sounds like love to me.

This is so much better than Tamarin x Anemone, in my opinion. Pike never takes his eyes off Anemone and clearly has a crush on her. Queen Coral wouldn't have Pike as Anemone's bodyguard if he didn't like her. Tamarin and Anemone show no signs of love. Go Pikenemone! 9/10!

- Sundew-is-the-best

19 Snowflake x Snowfox

I love this ship because Fox and Snowflake look out for each other even in the most difficult situations. Also, this ship is hard not to like because there isn't any other competition with other dragons, so go Foxflake!

- Frost the Icewing

If you haven't heard about these two, read the Winglets books. In the Winglet book that they are in, Snowflake has to marry Prince Arctic, Darkstalker's father. Well, surprise, surprise, she doesn't want to. Arctic is always mean and doesn't talk to her. Then, when they have a party (the IceWings host a party for the NightWings. This was before they hated each other), Snowflake meets Snowfox, who also hates Arctic. They try to get him out of the kingdom together. Sorry if this is really long.

I love the evil-lesbian-lover dynamic, and I fell head over tail in love with this as soon as I saw it. (Unfortunately, it isn't canon, as Fox eventually has a daughter, but it totally should be. Maybe she just went through a breeding program and I can always hope, right?)

20 Luna x Swordtail

Ooh, so cute. I like them because my crush's personality is also buried far below. You have to look for it to know it's there.

- Cougar the HiveWing

These two are probably rated #3. They are adorable, and neither of them could live without each other.

- Nightshade the LeafWing/NightWing

This is a cute relationship! It's personally my favorite because I love the kind of crazy Luna and the bonkers Swordtail. I love how Swordtail is always looking out for Luna: when she got her flamesilk, when she was blown away in the storm, and so on. Luna is just a good character on her own but is even better with Swordtail. I love this relationship!

21 Burnet x Silverspot

I love this ship! It feels like they were made for each other. Honestly, Admiral just doesn't seem like a good pick at all.

They just like each other without any drama or a giant, cross-continent, world-saving endeavor. They go so well together.

Another lesbian couple! I love them both, and I wish we could see more of their relationship.

22 Whiteout x Thoughtful

The way Thoughtful pushed through the crowd to comfort Whiteout in Darkstalker (the book, not the character), is just heartwarming. It shows how Thoughtful lives up to his name when caring for Whiteout.

Whiteout and Thoughtful are a great ship! Listener just wasn't meant for Thoughtful, but Whiteout is amazing for him. It shows how they really care for each other when Whiteout wants to stay with Thoughtful in the palace, even when it's dangerous for her. Thoughtful was worried when Darkstalker put a spell on Arctic, and the NightWing was brave enough to cross the stage and ask if Whiteout was alright.

The part where Thoughtful understood Whiteout and spoke the same language as her was truly sweet. Overall, the ship is awesome, and I wish to see more of it.

Super cute, especially the part when they were at the festival! It's like heaven made them for each other.

- Skyfall the Sky/Ice hybrid

23 Darkstalker x Moonwatcher

My first thought was, "What will Winter think? The girl of his dreams is dating the bad guy of arc 2?" I like how Moon trusts him even without an enchantment.

I don't know why, but this could have been a traumatic turn of events. I mean, what would Winter think? The dragon of his dreams dating his worst nightmare?!

I like how Moon was the only one who really trusted him. It's like they had this special bond between them. I thought it wouldn't be too bad of a ship!

24 Lynx x Winter

When Winter was first introduced, no one liked him. He approached Moon, saying that if she didn't hand over his scavenger, he would split her snout in two, or something to that effect. Lynx helped him change. Can't other people see that? Without Lynx, Winter would be a jerk, and no one would like him. Lynx liked Winter enough to make him likable (which is probably not a word, but you know what I mean). I feel bad after he got rejected by Moon, and I felt like he needed someone. Then I remembered, Lynx! Lynx still exists, and she'll be happy to be Winter's girlfriend because she clearly loves him, but he's too focused on Moon to notice! Let's hope this becomes a thing (not a beggar, but please try to understand my point for those who ship Winter and Lynx with someone else). Please try to understand this is the only possible ship that could be canon with Winter. And Lynx too, since Snowfall likes someone else, of course. Lynx and Snowfall are only best friends, same with Winter, Moon, and Qibli. Please Winterwatcher and Qinter shippers, try to understand my point. Please don't judge and no hate over here. Thanks!

25 Smolder x Thorn

Thorn is such an enthusiastic dragon, and she was broken too much. She deserves a handsome dragon like Smolder. He is very strange, but that doesn't draw Thorn away from him, which shows she really loves him.

I definitely ship it.

In Darkness of Dragons, Qibli said that Thorn had fallen for him. Thorn needs another mate to give birth to more dragonets. Sunny wouldn't want to challenge her.

And, in book 5, Smolder is a very interesting character, even if he locked up Sunny and betrayed Thorn. He's just too afraid of Burn. But now that Burn and Blister are dead and Blaze is harmless, he could fall in love freely.

Smolder is my absolute favorite character. Maybe it's because we both have a strange sense of humor and like exotic pets, but I digress. Smolder and Thorn are an absolutely adorable couple, even if it is sort of just light teasing as of now.

I think Smolder would make an awesome king, and I believe Smolder and Thorn deserve each other. It's also difficult to deny the fact that they love each other. Consider this: Smolder literally locked her in a room with Sunny in Book 5 and was going to wait for his sister to come and kill them. Yet, she still managed to forgive him even when she became queen and had every right and all the power to kill him. That's true love right there.

Smolder has also had his fair share of horrible experiences - dead brothers, lost his partner, and been threatened by his sister. I think Thorn would be a good support system for him. This ship and Blicket are my favorite couples in Wings of Fire.
