Wow you're right, Warrior cats fan, WindRunner and GorseFur are so Girlboss x Malewife. Remember when they escorted an abuse victim back to her abuser's place of residence

The clans writing and art

Read bellow about it!

How their writing and art works and how it's made?

The paper that commonly is write and drawn on, is made of papyrus(i know it's on Egypt, but since it's fictional, i think it doesn't matter so much), and the things they use write and draw with vary by clan and acessbility.

For historical events and important cats, cats write on clay, since clay can last for very long time without going bad, they write on it using strong sticks, elongated stones that were sharpened or crafted tools for it.

All the clans can use animal's blood from rests of fleshkill, trough that can be considered a waste if the freshkill can still be eaten, so cats eat all they can while writing.

All the clans use flowers to write and paint(mainly paint and draw), Thunderclan and Windclan have a large variety of flower types, whille Shadowclan and Riverclan unfortunally only have acess to the lotus flower and water lily in their territory, and as variety thoses flowers can be, it's very small compared to the Wind and Thunder diversity. The paint are made as the flowers are smash in a bowl, into a paste and puts alchool or hot water(depending in which clan that the material will change), and mash it with a mash tool(i couldn't find the name sorry), and the paint is made.

The next is kinda complicated as it uses fire, the clan has to start a small fire, pick a tiny stick, burn the tip, put out the fire, and use the coal as an writing pencil, it's more recommended to do it in Riverclan than any other clan(Principally Thunderclan in drought season), as it can cause massive fire, to make a small fire safelly, you would need to circle it with alot of stones and it's recommend it to put it in the middle of the clearing, away from any plants or flammable tools and objects.

For paints, it's very recommended to use a brush instead of your fingers, so you wouldn't accidentally paint your own fur, and it's hell to take the paint of the fur, so the brush is made with a stick or a stone that is more elongated than common, use a cotton(that can planted by the Riverclan, Windclan with their massive open moor can more easily plant it, but Shadowclan and Thunderclan can't plant it, since their territory have more shade, so the cotton can't grow, so they have to trade with Windclan and Riverclan) or squirrel's tail to use as the part were the paint goes, after painting or writing, it would need cleaning before using it again.

Where it originate from?

The modern clans writing system originally came from the Park cats, as they would learn it from the humans(the term two-legs wouldn't exist at that time) with them coming at their park, which Riverstar teached his own clan about, changing and creating new symbols for better understanding of his clan, but he was kind enough to share his knowledge with the rest of the clans.

The first painting came from Windclan, with a cat named Dust Muzzle, creating a painting of his family, Windstar, Gorse fur and Moth flight, the painting was said to be beautiful, even when it was also said to be very distorced and disproportionated when compared to the real cats, but the painting was lost by time, but with that Windclan created a tradition, to every new crafter, they have to try to draw the first painting with their own interpretation on how Dust Muzzle's would look like.

This a painting that an unknown apprentice made, this is their own interpretation on how Dust muzzle and his family would look like.

The Writing system itself

The writing system is very simple actually, since i don't want to waste hours and hours of my life creating a new complex writing system, so it will use own alphabet but with symbols instead of letters, but it doesn't mean it doesn't have its how rules to follow:

Note: This is a concept art.

Each symbol has a explanation on why i choose it specifically, i picked up names that start with that letter, so for example: Petal for the letter P, and the symbols can only have one colour however, so it's easier to identify it.

Symbols:

A = Acorn;

B = Bee;

C = Cloud or Cherry;

D = Daisy;

E = Egg;

F = Feather(new), Fern(outdated);

G = Grass;

H = Heather plant;

I = Simple Ice pattern(new), complex ice pattern(outdated);

J = Jagged line(new), Juniper berries(outdated);

K = Kestrel bird;

L = Leaf or Lion;

M = Maggot;

N = Moon, since it appear at night;

O = Olive;

P = Petal or Pine;

Q = Quail bird head;

R = Rat or Rain;

S = Snake or Spots or Sun;

T = Tadpole or Thistle;

U = Motion to something that is under something;

V = Vine;

W = Web or Wolf;

X = Of viXen(i couldn't find anything, sorry);

Y = Yarrow;

Z = Three Zigzag patterns;

After know which symbol is which letter, you should know how to write it, for example, we will use Fireheart's name as an example:

The right way to spell words here, is writing them down, and using an arrow bellow the last symbol, to move to the next vertical line, and "-" that separate the words, so it doesn't get too confusing.

And when you write a cat's name, you have to ask them, which symbol they use if that symbol have more one option(example S, with 3 options), since using 2 or 3 different symbols in the same word is wrong and cause confusion, principally if the symbol is outdated, so for example, Fireheart use Rain instead of Rat for his R.

The wrong way to spell the words is writing horizontally, using both the arrow and "-" incorrectly, multiple different symbols in the same word and the wrong symbol for the cat, and using outdated symbols.

Outdated symbols were the original ones, but fell out of use for one reason or another, example: "F" used to be a fern, but feel out of use, since it was too similar to "H" symbol, heather, so now the feather is used instead of the fern.

Finalization + author notes

This took way too long, but i'm happy with the result, i accept construtive criticism about it!

I wanted to use this kinda of ""Writing system"" for some time(even when it's not, but i like to swap the words with other drawings, it's cool), this thing will be more present in how the clans preserve their history, of course, things are still lost by time, but somethings like the clans leaders of each era, important events and cats, prophecy and etc.

And a litttle challenge, more like a dare, can you guess what Smallear wrote in the paper?

Anyway, again, english is not my first language, so if you find any mistakes, tell me and i will fix it.

…Deadfoot 👀 what is his name and role so far? If he has one

he and his wife ashfoot were cattle ranchers! they have a lot of land, going all the way back to windstar and gorsefur.

deadfoot actually lives a little longer than he did in canon. instead of dying shortly after crow was born, he instead lives into crow’s 20s but unfortunately passes away from (unspecified disease here).

he and ashfoot were pretty protective of crow since he was the only one out of four siblings to survive. but eventually he began to fight back, and as a way to keep themselves in his good graces, they gave him a lor more freedom. too much, in fact, as he would jusr wander off for days before coming home. it was definitely stressful but he never got in serious trouble while he was out so they just dealt with it.

deadfoot used to be a rodeo cowboy when he was younger but quit after his oldest son eagle was born.

the longest he went without seeing crow was during the rosdtrip when crow decided on a (slightly drunken) whim to join the gang. as part of their agreement, crow made sure to call in when he could and told them what happened recently. usually deadfoot was the one to pick up the phone and listen to crow ramble on. one time he told crow he was happy he found friends and he would love to meet them some day.

unfortunately he never would, as he fell deathly ill when crow was bunking in TC with bramble. crow had been planning to move in for good and come grsb his sentimentals and clothes from home, but upon receiving the news of desdfoot’s condition he immediately went back on those plans and decided to return home for good. deadfoot passed away with his wife and son by his side. crow now runs the ranch with his mother and wife nightcloud, keeping deadfoot’s photo on the fireplace mantle with crow’s late siblings.

hi. aroace here. if I had a nickel for every time someone feel in love with me for being kind to them I'd have like 5 nickels. which is distressing because it keeps fucking happening with my friends no matter how hard I stress that I have zero interest in anybody ever that isn't one specific video game character. I joke about "having TOO MANY bitches" but seriously there is nothing so distressing as knowing that someone is in love with you deeply and you can't return their affections no matter how much platonic love you have for them.

also I'm tired of seeing only asexual rep everywhere. WHERE is my aro rep. I went to pride and they had asexual flags everywhere but no aromantic flags and it made me very sad.

okay thank you Sasha I hope whatever you eat next tastes like ambrosia and that you get good rest

no problem!! hope venting your problems helped a bit! actually gonna drop some of my aro warrior cats + mlp headcanons here!

mousefur, redtail, hollyleaf, sweetie belle, big mac and twilight sparkle OH and wind runner and gorsefur

[mist-dancing]

Things I believed as a kid before I even finished the first series:

- Jayfeather wasn’t born blind, he had an accident as a kit that made him blind (I thought he fell off a cliff)

- Sol was a dead entity that posessed Hollyleaf (dunno where this came from?)

- Mapleshade was actually significant and killed Sandstorm, I also thought she was the leader of the dark forest and she created it.

- Firestar was made completely immortal and starclan purposefully dropped a tree on him to kill him

- Instead of Longtail dying when the tree fell, he was just blinded, I then thought the fact he was blinded by a rabbit was a fake rumour

- Squilf was the threes biological mother but she disowned them in the fire scene

- Ashfur killed Firestar once and for all

- Ivypool and Hollyleaf were a couple

- Leafpool and Mothwing were a couple

- The leaders got actual physical star symbols on their head (I was very dissapointed when I read Firestar’s leader ceremony)

- Tawnypelt was evil

- I genuinely thought Fuzzypelt and Patchpelt were the same person for like 5 years and Fuzzypelt was just his warrior name changed when he became an elder

- Violetshine, Twigbranch, Sleekwhisker and Darktail were fan characters

- I also thought Windrunner and Gorsefur were fan characters

- Alderheart had a shadow monster following him that gave him anxiety

- I thought the Erins straightup forgot that Tallstar was the leader of Windclan and just randomly replaced him with Onewhisker

- Needletail was a Thunderclan cat

- I thought Graypool was Yellowfang’s mother???

- Blossomfall and Thornclaw getting together was a joke (I actually believed this until I started reading ASC a couple months ago)

[whatlurksbean]

would foxpaw be trans if you wrote him now?

I'm not sure! I think probably not, he's always been a feminine cis man (cat) and I love that for foxpaw, I like having characters who can express their gender while not being lgbt

i think gorsefur and brindleheart have t4t energy if i wrote them now, and stormbringer has nonbinary energy, mostly because of his anime haircut, don't ask how that correlates, it's just a vibe check

I haven't thought about these characters much in the past few years, but i trust the vibe checks

[breezeyss]

its wind runner and gorsefur!! they're my fav canon couple cause they're just <3 together. also dotc has some of the best kitties so read that

aaaaaaaaa

[blimbo-buddy]

I think that WindRunner and GorseFur's entire deal with the Settlers should be seen as a tragedy. Two strays, desperate to appease the settling group of mountain cats so much that they forfeit their names to better fit these jackasses who slowly take over the previously public and unclaimed land. WindRunner being rightfully pissed off at them only to then be shut down time and time again, never even being fully trusted because she'll always be a "rogue" to them and not a "moor cat". Nothing but a rogue with a rogue's name.
