#bc we all need a puntable child in our lives

I got a whole bunch of different interpretations of Life, most of which are apathetic bitches, lmao.

Most of them also take the form of a cougar. However, I have two favourites-

First is Liege Life, from the A Guide To Becoming A God's Consort [CotC] AU. They present as a larger than normal lamb, with their head damaged and perpetually bleeding from when they fought Death into his prision, their blood being different from the other gods' blood. They are the head of the Old Faith, and head of their own cult, and while I haven't quite got their personality down pat, I do know they are going to be very cold, and very charismatic. They have an incredibly poor relationship with their Death, given that they were one of the four to banish and lock him away between realms.

Second is Yvette, from the Sleeping Beauty AU, who's yet to make a proper appearance. She presents as a young girl, around 13-14 ish, with wolf ears, tail, and digitgrade, furred legs. She's very wolfish, with even her teeth being much sharper than a human's should be. Her personality is greatly inspired by Ylfa (D20:NA) and Mabel (GF) as well as kinda the 'super excitedable teen girl who really likes romance' stereotype, and she would absolutely be on wattpad and tumblr. Her relationship with her Death (or Hades, as he goes by) is very good, he pretty much raised her, and she views him as an older brother/father figure, as well as someone she can trust to have her back and keep her safe.

These two have differing opinions on their Death's relationship with Puss as well-

Liege Life thinks its digusting, though is it because they are homophobic or is it just Death? (Its just Death, they hate him so much they become homophobic to him) They are also really hating the 'mortal/god' thing. They fluctuate between who doesn't deserve who- sometimes Puss deserves better than to be with 'that monster', and other times Death deserves better than to be with 'that mortal freak'.

Yvette, on the other hand, thinks its great. She ships them. She wants nothing more than to be the flowergirl at their wedding. Puss is now her second father, thank you, and she will be pushing Hades constantly to pull himself together and ask Puss out (Because somehow I figured out a way to make this fic a slowburn??? Who knows honestly). She's like Bonnie proposing to women for her brother, except she's only proposing to Puss for him. Yvette is somehow Hades' greatest rival, as she's fighting him for Puss' hand on his behalf.

And I will close this out with an honourable mention to the various WIPs I'm rotating in my mind like a microwave of Puss being Life.

Puss in Boots fandom, if you've created an interpretation of "Life" as a character (like how Death is personified as El Lobo), reblog this with it! Even if they don't have a reference yet, I want to see all of your interpretations of the character. Like, what species they are, how they interact with El Lobo, how they present themselves, etc.
