#AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH STRIPES

[squidkid15]

Update to daydreams Red Son - he had those gangly ass calf legs when he was a baby. Also Stripes was a very good uncle for a while.

meet my TADC oc; Stripes Armstrong!!!

if ever you need to grab something far off, a cushion to fall on, or an impromptu slingshot, Stripes is your guy! being based on the classic stretchy arm toy, he can stretch quite far rather easily, and snaps right back into shape without any trouble! of course, dont let him get too warm or cold!

explanations for the relationship chart:

caine: stripes isnt too fond of caine, and is a little scared of him, but caine seems to like him despite all that!

bubble: bubble thinks hes fun to chew on, and stripes doesnt really mind all that much

pomni: stripes being the sweetheart he is really helps pomni get comfortable in the circus. well, as comfortable as one can get while in an unfamiliar place. he enjoys listening to pomni and offers his assistance when needed.

ragatha: theyre both the go-tos for venting, so they see eachother as reliable. however, they dont interact often.

jax: stripes being as stretchy as he is means hes a common weapon of terror for jax, as well as just a general tool. this is convenient for jax, but stripes isnt very fond of this arrangement.

kinger: they rarely interact, but stripes secretly enjoys kingers sporadic nature.

zooble: while stripes thinks zooble is an interesting character, zooble doesnt regard him all that much. its not malicious, they just dont particularly care.

gangle: stripes does his best to help gangle as much as shell let him. he enjoys watching her draw, and understands when she needs space. gangle appreciates this and considers him a reliable friend.

This is where I'm putting a pause on the Babug au since I basically got all the designs I wanted out from my system XD

So this is Adrien with the White Cat of Destruction as Cheshire and Marinette with the Scarab of Creation as June Bug!

Adrien has a pretty okay relationship with Manuu, although they're not the best at communication, and Manuu is an awful influence, but Marinette, on the other hand, is completely despised by Baakhu. Baakhu cannot for the love of god understand why Marinette was chosen as her holder. She's unfocused, lacks discipline, and refuses to take drastic measures when necessary. She's obviously trying her best to train Marinette to be a better holder, but Baakhu is not the best teacher, to say the least. She's way too intense, and her methods tend to be overly aggressive and violent. If it weren't for Cheshire's support, Marinette probably would have quit long ago.

okay so the gale/striped era has to be after the first warrior code and before Darkstar's Law/SkyClan's exile from the forest

much to think about

Edit this is likely wrong from furher screenshots. The era may be pre Duststar and pre warrior code????

Maned and Striped - 105 - "Visual garbage"

As he finally settles on a spot for his mom's spider plant, Zack questions Lucas on his knowledge of plant care. Lucas' answer is not enough and Zack ends up blaming Lucas' lack of knowledge on his watching "stupid shows" on TV. I guess Zack will be monitoring what Lucas watches more carefully from now on…

I know they were setting up "Toradeen on the rocks" during the FCBD issue, but cmon! We don't even know how they got together, and they're already breaking them up, that's bullshit!

Just... ugh, you know?

I'm like 99% sure they're gonna get back together and it's just the writers adding a bit of drama. And like, given their history, and Toralei's reputation, I don't think its' super uncalled for. In fact I think I would have been a bit put off if they didn't have some challenges in their relationship, they both have very strong personalities, and this is Clawdeen's first relationship. And they're 15 lol.

But like you said, there's no set up to their relationship, we don't even know how long they'd been dating, and next hing we know they're broken up?? It's weird as hell to have a whole pride comic, just to break them up off screen in the very next issue.

I have mixed feelings about Clawdeen's story arc seemingly revolving around relationship drama. I think there's more that could be done with her, but at the same time she's literally the only main ghoul never shown in a relationship in gen 1, so it's also kinda of a long time coming, and I'm psyched it's with Toralei instead of some random dude.

chatting with auntie Larkwing

Larkwing as a character has always fascinated me tbh. She's made an apprentice by the tail-end of OOTS and has become trainee in the dark forest in The Last Hope. We obviously have no canon reason why she joined, but her mentor Furzepelt (who had only recently become a warrior) was a trainee too. In Crowfeather's Trial she's there alongside the other trainees being scorned by their clanmates, and that includes her own family. She lost her two aunts in the battle and now both her parents and her grandmother are distant with her. She's also just generally distrusted by her clanmates, but fights hard against the stoats the entire time.

Featherpelt is in CT kinda retconned to be her littermate. It's a weird thing for me since Feather didn't exist in OOTS at all. but in CT she's way closer to her parents who are clearly favoring her over her supposed littermate. She at one point also expresses the idea that the dark forest trainees should be exiled, which kinda struck me because her own sister is one of those trainees. I'm more planning on putting that onto Crowfeather and her parents being so mean to the trainees and her picking it up, but yeah, Feather and Lark don't seem close at all.

I chose to imagine that her relationship with her parents, sister and grandmother never fully recovered from that whole ordeal. They're less hostile now, but they're awkward around her, though they just Don't Address That Thing anymore. She just avoids them when she can now and spends time with other cats (in my mind Harestar most importantly, as he's another dark forest trainee). Though Featherpelt's kits, who have not known the dark forest battle and have no reason to judge her for it, are close to her (in my heart). I like the idea that she might be the black sheep of the family to the older members, but Whistlebreeze, Flutterfoot and Songleap enjoy spending time with her.

as for the stuff with her parents. I've stated a few times that I despise emberfoot. It's kinda because he's just a stock Mean Conservative (though most of WindClan gets that treatment when the books need it), but I also have gripes with Sedgeember as a ship.

Sedgewhisker is born at the end of The Sight. She's made an appretnice in Sunrise. we have to quickly roll with the very nonsensical timeline stuff as warrior cats hates making sense of how many moons have passed, but for all accounts and purposes, she's 6 moons by the time sunrise begins, maybe 7 or 8 if she was made an apprentice earlier in Long Shadows, but it's never announced in the books, so we just can't get a grasp of how old she is.

Emberfoot on the other hand appears as a fully grown warrior with an apprentice for the first time in Eclipse. in the best of cases he's just been named a warrior and immediately got an apprentice in some sort of Fireheart and Cinderpaw but Worse situation. Sunpaw, his apprentice, is being trained at the same time as Sedgepaw is, they are apprentices together and Emberfoot definitely did have interactions with Sedgepaw while training.

by the time the fourth apprentice has begin both Sedgewhisker and Sunstrike get their names. Sedgewhisker goes on the patrol to deal with the beavers and then returns to WindClan and not too long later she must have has Larkwing. for her to be apprenticed by TFW (the wiki's timeline also puts her birth in fading echoes). My problem with this is that Sedgewhisker barely got her name when Larkkit is born whereas Emberfoot has at least been a warrior for 7-8 moons If Not More.

I have no solid proof in canon that ember did something shitty, but even if they only became a thing after Sedge became a warrior, he was a mentor while he was an apprentice, he's been a warrior for a while by the time she gets her name and I don't like it.

In my headcanon world ember is genuinely shitty and they have Larkkit, but eventually Sedge or her family (or Sunstrike) do stop Ember from his scumbaggery, but Lark is kinda stuck in the crossfire and this situation also doesn't help with her band with Sedgewhisker and Gorsetail or Featherpelt later.

It’s Bisexuality Visibility Month (also Suicide Awareness Month), and the biphobia has been constant and intense, even in our own bi spaces, mostly from fellow LGBTQIA+ people.

Bi women have been told they are tainted for being with men, that we are dirty and dick obsessed. We’ve been told we are perverted fetishists by both cis and trans lesbians, with even gay men joining in on the insults, with one even threatening violence towards bi women if they come near lesbians. We even got told we deserve to be abused, raped, and murdered by our male partners because that’s what we deserve for dating men.

Bi men are being accused again for being HIV carriers, with gay men saying they are only good for sex because they will end up leaving them for women. One trans man said he would kill himself if a man started dating a woman after him, not leave him for one but just start dating again and that person being a woman.

I haven’t seen insults directly about non-binary bisexuals, but I’m sure there would be and a lot of hate lumps us all together. All this hates stings me but I can’t imagine the pain of all this for non-binary, trans women, and trans men dealing with it all, and it makes me so disappointed and angry that fellow trans people in this community are hurting them.

Pride Month a lesbian wrote “I wish god would eradicate all the bisexuals” while another wrote “For Pride Month let all the bi people disappear” with both having thousands of likes and comments agreeing. Now during Bi Visibility Month, a non-binary lesbian with feminist in their profile posted “Happy bi visibility month, I hope they find a cure soon 💖”. While continuing to mock us after.

Our allies and so-called LGBTQIA+ advocates have been silent and have even participated in bierasure, laughing at us when we point it out, saying “It’s not that serious.” “Lol the bis are getting upset over nothing again”. Only the bisexual advocates and pages have spoken out against the hate.

The B in LGBTQIA+ is suppose to be for bisexual but this community says and treats us as awfully as the bigots do to all of us. Bisexual is the sexuality that is attracted to two or more genders, that we have the ability to love anyone regardless of their gender. But we’re treated as greedy, perverted, hyper sexual, unfaithful, which from bigots you understand and usually brush off, but from those within the community who go through similar prejudice and should understand, sharing the same ignorant mindset.

These spaces are suppose to be our safe havens as well, but are just as dangerous. We try making our own spaces and even that is invaded by these people, we are beyond exhausted. We need the other members of the community that aren’t biphobic to speak out more and shut these people and this hate down. Because the lack of empathy from this community is frightening and all this in-fighting will allow the bigots to pick us a part more easily.
