Crickdew

Crickdew is the femslash ship between Cricket and Sundew from the Wings of Fire fandom.

Canon
The Lost Continent

Sundew and her parents, Belladonna and Hemlock, were hiding in Wasp's greenhouse. After they captured Blue, Cricket, and Swordtail, she asked for her mother's permission to kill Blue, Cricket, and Swordtail and leave their bodies outside the greenhouse. Her mother, Belladonna, immediately disagreed as this would alert the HiveWings that intruders were in the area.

Sundew willingly accompanied Blue and Cricket to the Temple of Clearsight to help them steal the Book of Clearsight, using flower dye and wing-shaped leaves to disguise herself as a SilkWing. While Cricket drugged the guards at the entrance, with a flower Sundew had given her, Blue asked Sundew about what her parents had said about being born for this purpose.

The Hive Queen

Sundew appeared when Cricket heard the sounds of another dragon in the caves where she and Blue, still in Metamorphosis, were hiding. Cricket was terrified that the dragon could be another HiveWing, or worse, a mind-controlled one, but her fears were unfounded. Cricket was relieved and asked Sundew what had happened above ground. Sundew explained she led the HiveWings "all the way to Lake Scorpion" before losing them and taking the long way back to the caves. Sundew mentioned that she understood his devotion to Luna, since she "has a one true love herself," but ignored Cricket's questions as to who and continued that Swordtail did leave her fighting two HiveWings alone. Sundew eventually snapped at Cricket, irritated by all the questions, so Cricket offered to get some water for Sundew's injury to make peace. She agreed and gave Cricket a kind of absorbing moss. Cricket was intimidated by the LeafWing's "scowly" expression and decided that "it would be safer to back away for a little while." Sundew then had Cricket use a "weird-looking plant" from one of her pouches to wake up Swordtail, who she claimed was in no state to still be looking for Luna.

When Cricket and Swordtail were talking about Blue's flamesilk status, Sundew admitted her motives with Blue; to use him and his silk to burn down the Hives. Sundew, Cricket, and Swordtail then had a long argument about whether it was the right thing to do, with Swordtail taking sides with Sundew.

Sundew called the Book of Clearsight "completely useless" because it could not tell them the future, and then told the others that she would rather have Luna with them as Luna would have jumped to the idea of burning down the Hives, but that she would settle for using Blue to destroy the HiveWings. Sundew believed that all the HiveWings deserved to be killed for what they did to the LeafWings and their home, except for Cricket. Sundew then tried to get more information about the Chrysalis out of Swordtail, who explained it was an organization of SilkWings who were fighting the HiveWings for their freedom.

Cricket worries about Sundew when she is in danger, and is fond of her. Sundew did not hesitate to fight several HiveWing guards in order to protect Cricket and her friends, and they often laugh and smile with one another.

She liked how Sundew stood up for herself, despite her parents' disapproval, which was something that she had never seen with the other HiveWings. Cricket wished she was more like Sundew, whom she believed was a dragon who already knew the answers to all her questions. Sundew believes that Cricket is quite unlike the rest of the HiveWing tribe, and is fond of her for it. Cricket is one of Sundew's friends, and she is often amused by the HiveWing. She teases Cricket, and although Sundew claims to hate all HiveWings, she seems okay with Cricket and has expressed friendly affection for her at various times. She has mentioned that Cricket is "different" from the other HiveWings, possibly due to her insatiable curiosity and immunity to Queen Wasp's mind control powers, and silently felt anger at Nettle when she spoke to Cricket in such a cold way, though noting she treated Cricket similarly at first. Cricket's company also seems to relax Sundew, as she seems more friendly and open than she did in The Lost Continent. Cricket often wants to open up her mind like a book and read it.

Fanon
Crickdew is considered to be a very underrated ship, it is hard to find fanfictions or fanart of it. Sunlow is a more popular ship. Crickdew is still loved by many.
