also by the way why have we brushed over bluestar knowing that it was common for kittypets not to have their balls. it's how she convinces rusty to join thunderclan but also when would she have discovered this

[whiskrz]

me personally i think ashfur should have gone to starclan and hollyleaf to the dark forest so that jayfeather finding this out at the following half-moon meeting triggered a rebellion against starclan's judgement but thats just me

Tangle, Web, and Droplet are very interesting to me, what’s their deal in a bit more depth - family drama or faction drama, specifically 👀 -🪷

There is SO MUCH drama happening within these guys, honestly… Though mostly it’s around and between Web and Railfoot lmao; Railfoot tries too hard and Web turns his nose up at it

Chatterheart and Railfoot were a simple fling; Chatterheart had a moment of comphet, and Railfoot’s ego was inflated by the fact that he was specifically sought out for a night of passion, so they shacked up a couple of times before Chatterheart ended up pregnant.

Chatterheart didn’t want cubs at all, but her parents convinced her to at least keep one of the litter to carry out their legacy, so she carried to term. Railfoot had no idea about her pregnancy until she was showing up with two of the three new-blooms, telling them that they were his, and then dipping back out.

Undermoor family dynamics are very different than the other factions; cubs are raised by the whole of the faction rather than just their parents, and are expected to be very close with their littermates, as the Undermoor holds a very notable “together we are strong” mentality that was born from the notion that a group of folk is harder to pick off than a lone folk. Tangle and Web are incredibly close due to this, and Tangle keeps their hot-headed, cruel-tongued brother in check as much as they can. Since there were originally three in the litter, they’ve also kind of adopted the single child Cotton into their squad, despite Web’s bullying of her.

Railfoot, despite his best efforts of being involved in their raising (since he’s from outside the faction), is kind of shunned by Tangle and Web. So he turned more aggressive, trying to brute force his way into their lives, and then got dragged back by his factionmates or told off by his son.

The Outpour also raises a cub through faction, but the bloodkin are expected to be much more paws-on. As Chatterheart didn’t want to raise any cubs, she handed off Droplet’s raising to her parents (Teaktooth and Shimmeringface) and then went off to just… live her life. Droplet is aware that Chatterheart is her mother, but moreso views her as a distant sister-figure instead. Droplet also doesn’t hold any bitterness towards her, as the situation was explained to her pretty young; she understands fine, and she doesn’t need a parent when she has her grandparents.

Tangle, Web, and Droplet have met a few times at Gatherings, where Droplet also met Cotton. Droplet is closer to Cotton than she is her littermates.

Tangle and Web also met Chatterheart, and respect her as a linguist and songsmith, but nothing more. Droplet met Railfoot, who immediately tried to smother her with “parental love”, and she wasn’t impressed — by him, nor by his attempts.

the majority of clans have former dark forest trainees in leadership positions...do you think their relations will be friendlier since so many of them became friends through their training or will it be worse because the erins dont care about continuity like that

[ninewhiskers]

i wonder if the dark forest trainees thrashed or screamed in their nests while they died? did their denmates not care to wake them up from their nightmares? were they so used to the violence of their lifestyle that a warrior's night terrors was no cause for concern?

or did they die silently and suddenly? did cats wonder if they were next, obsessing over what signs to look out for and finding none? did medicine cats curse themselves for not having any answers for them?

hey guys just popping in to advertise my new oc blog. it's a rehaul of my old blog because the lore started to be outdated

WELCOME TO THE SYRUPVERSE!

this is a blog where i infodump about my ocs, answer questions, and reblog stuff that inspires me. the syrupverse was created on may 26th in 2020 and i've just been steadily adding to the lore ever since then. you can call me whiskers! (he/him/his)

★ occasionally nsft/nsfw (will be tagged "(slight)/ nsft") ★ interaction highly encouraged ★ preferably dni if under 16 but i don't care that much

feel free to ask questions about anything you see (or DON'T see)!

[ninewhiskers]

each clan should have an accent please pleeeeease shadowclan hissing their s sounds and windclan sighing at the end of all their sentences like they're always a little out of breath from running and thunderclan growling and purring and rumbling like distant storms when they talk and riverclan almost-singing their words and skyclan trilling and chirping for emphasis

[ninewhiskers]

im so negative on this blog here's a warrior cats appreciation post. i love you detailed descriptions of the environment. i love you mundane portrayals of clan life. i love you comedic awkward moments from characters. i love you deep, tumultuous emotions in characters. i love you family trees and legacies. i love you theme of love and loyalty.

making firestar the fourth cat was a shit decision sorry it didnt add a thing to the story and anyway if there HAD to be a fourth cat it should have been leafpool who FOUND THE FUCKING MOONPOOL BTW

[ninewhiskers]

this is so funny. do whatever u like babe ive immortalized the moment

@ninewhiskers the fuck am i supposed to do now

[ninewhiskers]

i'm positive i've said this before but the erins' choice to describe squirrelflight as a fire in the ultimate guide has stuck with me ever since i first read it. she declines ashfur because he wishes to contain it and chooses brambleclaw because he "matches" it, but as the series goes on and he keeps using his power to punish her it looks like he just wants her contained too. in fact it sometimes looks like he wants to snuff it out entirely. and she keeps burning anyway. and now she finally gets to burn as brightly as she wants because he's her kindling now. please help me im insane about her.

[ninewhiskers]

linguistics brain wants to try making a cat language

[ninewhiskers]

when i say this book is my favorite and that it made me view tigerheartstar in a completely different way im being so serious

[ninewhiskers]

dovewing ivypool and hollyleaf all suffered so much because of their proximity to the "kin of your kin" prophecy compared to jayfeather and lionblaze
