Literal spitfires…
 
“THEMATIC NAMING!”

You thought you understood it. You thought it was an excuse for your own behavior, the reason why you act the way you do, why you’re always so confrontational and always bearing down on others. You thought you understood how to be a leader, even though you still doubt yourself every moment of every day. But you’d forgotten what it really is trying so hard to imagine what it means.
 
You spend all your life worrying about the image that you’ve forgotten what the image is all about. It’s not your temper or your talents or your wings that flame represents, it’s not the fire ‘inside you’ that matters.
 
You are the fire.
 
So stop thinking and just BE that fire that you are, and burn as brightly as you can.
 
That’s what you always dreamed of…wasn’t it?

wow i didn’t think it would get this much attention. or even be re-uploaded here.

people, it’s a flame abstractly shaped like a phoenix. Personally, I like this one more than the fan and trading card ones. it’s more unique, and actually looks like the artists put some effort into making it.

Looks to be fire wings, because she’s so fast, her wings burst into flames.

Looks like a flaming wing to me. Presumably it means she can fly really fast.

It’s one it’s side actually.

It looks like a sort of fire bird.

it is spitfire’s cutie mark. it is spitted fire. she is good being a spitfire. it’s that simple.

well, “What even is this?” is a too general question, you should have been more specific to avoid confusion.

There’s a funny thing called “Not Making Assumptions”  
I know that is a Cutie mark. I know it is Spitfire’s Cutie Mark. I want to know what is it a Cutie Mark of, Smart Arse?

It’s not really that different from what most fanartists use.

^ There’s a funny thing called reading the tags.

What even is this?
