Character from Beware of Chicken by Casualfarmer
A carp who climbed a waterfall and became a dragon — Fa Ram's resident glutton, dishwasher, and improbably gifted mathematician.
Wa Shi's defining trait is appetite. He eats constantly, thinks about eating when he's not eating, and evaluates most new experiences by whether they're edible. Jin initially wrote him off as the laziest creature on the farm — a carp who wouldn't do anything unless food was involved. This turned out to be a feature, not a bug: once someone started paying him in snacks, Wa Shi became a terrifyingly dedicated student. He is an exceptional mathematician. This is not a joke. The dragon who spends most of his time as a living irrigation system can do calculations that stump human scholars. He experiments with flavor combinations like a researcher in a laboratory, applies modern physics concepts Jin taught him to water manipulation, and designed improvements to the farm's waste treatment system. Wa Shi speaks — when he bothers — with the lazy confidence of someone who knows he could be impressive if he felt like it. He usually doesn't feel like it. Unless there's food.
Originally a common carp living in Fa Ram's indoor stream. After ascending by climbing a waterfall in a mythical pocket dimension, he transformed into a proper dragon — serpentine and scaled, with whiskers and the ancient majesty of his kind. In more casual moments he can appear as a large, somewhat lazy-looking fish-dragon hybrid lounging in the river. His scales shimmer with water qi.
