Blicket

Blicket is the het ship between Blue and Cricket from the Wings of Fire fandom.

Canon
When Blue initially met Cricket, one of the first things he noticed was how she was willing to talk to him, a SilkWing, as though they could be friends, and she looked at him as if he were a real dragon, and not a wingless curiosity or an annoyance to be stepped over. She took a large risk for him by using dangerous flamesilk to burn off his wrist cuff, and Blue vowed to do everything he could to keep her out of trouble for helping him. Blue lets her smile chase away his nerves, and felt a small glow of happiness when he thought of he and Cricket leaving Cicada Hive together. When Blue asked why she was so willing to help him, she replied that she found him interesting, and would love to know more about him, and knew how it felt to have to hide when everyone else was under the control of Queen Wasp.

Cricket makes him feel safe, and Blue would go with her anywhere she asked. He wants her to be safe, and could not imagine his life without her in it. Cricket stated that she would want Blue to be her best friend even if she knew every dragon in Pantala, and Blue realized quickly that he was in love with her. His heart jumps at the sight of her, he feels beams of affection towards her, and he would never hide anything from Cricket. Blue's heart will sometimes leap out of his chest at the sight of Cricket.

Even after escaping Cicada Hive and becoming a fugitive with Blue, Cricket knew that she had no regrets about what she had done. She is instinctively protective of him, and trusts him to always do the right thing. She thinks he is beautiful, and is fond of his kindness, sense of humor, thoughtfulness, and empathy. She adores him, and they are quite affectionate towards one another. He is a great source of comfort for her, and does not push her to talk about her problems. Blue's smile takes up a lot of space in her heart, and while she cares for him romantically, she is unsure if he feels the same, and chastises herself for feeling so affectionate towards him. She likes to laugh and talk with him, and wishes she could tell their society that she thinks he is wonderful, important, interesting, and valuable. He understands Cricket, and wants to go with her wherever she goes.
