I've finally finished my life series art yipee
Im so proud of these considering i've never tried anything that looks like stained glass
Theres also a Cleo one in the reblogs
As usual click for better quality
Flat colours (and me yapping about them) under the cut
These are also not edited for better colours just straight from the art file, idk i can never get colours just right so i usually edit them in my gallery app lol
The line art colour match the characters vibes they're not really lore based but you know what is
The poses. Obv grain is looking at the camera (and has eyes) cuz he's a watcher but also scott and martyn are looking to one side cuz they were happy about their win and pear and scar are looking to the other cuz they were sad/confused
None of them really have facial features cuz like they're players in a game come on why would they ever have an actual identity other than 'player'
Also look at scotts bow and scars cane please i put way too much detail into them
Okay enough yapping now (i lied theres more in the tags)
#scars one very much was not meant to have an eye as the background but oh well#it looks cool#so lets pretend its like he's still alive related or something#i may have done these all in like 4 days and ignored my school work way too much during it#so now im gonna not draw again for like 3 months prob#also the colours were so fucking hard to figure out for the martyn one#who decided he should be represented by mars (fameously the RED planet) when his coulorscheme is green#also also fun fact the dogwarts banner is a different red from the coral#but the red blood on his sword is the same as dogwarts red#no im not insane about him why would you ever think that#okay end of yap#life series#life series art#third life#last life#double life#limited life#secret life#grian#scott smajor#pearlescentmoon#martyn inthelittlewood#goodtimeswithscar#why must there be so many tags#art#my art#i might do like a tiny cleo one cuz i love them too much to not include her

Hi so to another blog, I sent in the request for gymteacher!patrick but now that I think about it, I feel like he’s one of those adults who secretly hates kids fgccjjjgffhhhj. It’s the whole vibe I got from whenever he was talking to Tashi and Lily was brought up like yeah he could say he feels awkward about the fact those two had a kid…….but I also just feel he hates kids 💀. It’s giving “fuck them kids, and fuck you too!”
ohhh i actually love the gymteacher!patrick hcs you sent @saintzweig. mars ate that up. if you haven’t read that, go do that!!!
i am inordinately fond of the idea that patrick doesn't like children because he can't wrap his mind around them as a concept. a tiny being who is still developing? continually learning about life? dependent on the people around them? it's overwhelming for him to process any of it, but it's all he can think about it in their presence. it also drums up the memories of his own childhood he'd rather forget. feelings he thought he long buried, but persist against his inclination.
so by proxy...i love the idea of elementary school teacher! patrick who took the job because it was his only choice. patrick who has been down on his luck and desperately needs to find a stable source of income, at least for the time being. teaching is not his first choice (and he's damn sure he is going to lose his mind), but it's the only job he could find that pays well. if he's going to be miserable anyway, he reasons he may as well be getting a paycheck out of it.
he goes in, does his job, and leaves. the other teachers are a bore, and he's to uneasy around the children to actually get close with them. ironically, his supposed indifference to the children makes them love him even more. he chocks it up to the childish curiosity of wanting to know more about the new, distant teacher, but the truth? they just like him. they like the way his language isn't filtered and how he mumbles under his breath. even the way he never breaks into that primordially passively assertive voices the other teachers have or never seems to have a solid plan. his behavior is new and captivating, but also makes him feel like an equal. in a way, patrick isn't a teacher they want to impress, but a friend they want to make. so while his goal was to avoid having any of these kids form an attachment to him, he's failed extraordinarily.
not to say he can avoid forming any attachments himself. i mean he sees these kids everyday, it's only natural to feel some sort of connection to them. it doesn't have to mean anything (at least this is what he tells himself). so what if he knows how to tie Lucy's shows the way she likes it when they come undone during soccer. or remembers to remind Aiden to take off his glasses before it's time for dodgeball. he's perceptive with details. basically has something in his head for every student, but wouldn't anyone notice (well again...what he tells himself). he's allowed to take some interest in their lives, learn about what they like or think. it's not a crime, nor does it have to mean anything. this is just a job and he still doesn't like children (he's started to repeat this to himself like a mantra).
the year goes on and his interest expands, much to his displeasure. they're growing on him, he can't deny it. he cares for all of his students, and while the concept of children still makes him uneasy, he's been able to push it down. focus on the joy the kids bring in the moment, rather than what their existence means for him. he enjoys being around all of them. especially the little, quiet kid who doesn't really talk much. always a little behind in gym, but really is sweet. and i mean just wait until he meets you...that kid's mom.
#ask#i took foreverrrr to get to this. i'm so sorry bout that.#i wanted to take this in a bit of a different direction than mars because she has the teacher! patrick x teacher! reader down to a T#i may or may not continue this. depending on what you guys want#also am working on something else patrick zweig and kid related...keep an eye on this space#the awkwardness he feels bout lily relates to the fact that she is living breathing proof that art and tashi have created a life without hi#she's the only aspect of their life he has no connection to whatsoever and that makes him feel at unease. at least that's what i think#patrick zweig#patrick zweig x reader#challengers#josh o'connor

Seeing people complain about the Speak Now vault tracks being too teenagery …. gee, you’d almost think a teenager wrote them /s
#i feel like it’s a lose lose situation#because if they’re ‘too mature’ like on the red vault people accuse her of writing them recently#but if they’re ‘too immature’ people complain about them being not as good#i for one really like the speak now vault#it may not be as deep as red but i think it’s still really eye-opening#like the kinds of things she was thinking about but felt she couldn’t share#idk maybe it’s because i was a Small Child when speak now came out#and it was really the first album i ever became obsessed with#and as a result i idolized taylor as this beacon of perfection and grown-up-ness#like obviously I’ve long since recognized that she was still a child in a lot of ways in that era#but hearing the vault tracks really made her feel like a Real Teenager to me in a way i never had before?#like the anxiety on electric touch#the insecurity on when emma falls in love#the hopefulness tinged with self-loathing/self-criticalness on foolish one#the wattpad-tinged fantasy of i can see you#idk i feel like teenage me would have related to all that a lot in a way that i never did with her other music#idk i’m rambling#i need to go to bed#taylor swift#speak now taylor’s version

There’s been something wrong with my eye for the past two days and I was about to start panicking when it first began, but just when I was getting ready to spiral into worry…a thought popped into my head.
Well….at least it’s the right eye.
If it’s anything serious (not likely), at least I can have really authentic hua cheng cosplay.
I’m still taking it seriously, don’t worry. Though normally I’d be a ball of anxiety. Thinking of it like this has kept me very calm and even given me a silly story as well :)
#this may be specific to hua cheng but I feel like I’m really channeling xie lian right now with this logic lol#tgcf#tian guan ci fu#hua cheng#the ghost king looks badass with an eyepatch why can’t us mortals#fairly certain it’s nowhere near that serious#but just got me thinking how hua cheng gives disability rep#my eye will be fine#but I know that even if it wasn’t#knowing he’s there to relate to would be a big source of comfort

one of my favorite things to play around with, in omegaverse? changing what something "usually" means.
family = parents and biological children in a shared household?
not any more its not!
family = a group of friends who share a house together like they have for years, even after forming partnerships with others or having kids
family = a queer platonic couple, the kids they adopted (despite being able to procreate together if they wanted to), and the neighbors that are like siblings to them
family = three generations of parents, children, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who might as well be family, who rally around each other in good times and bad
family = two lifelong best friends who went from playing together as kids, to raising families, to growing old, while becoming the cornerstones of their neighborhood
family = one big old polycule spread across multiple households, and the assortment of kids who have called them aunties and uncles from day one
family = a happily single person, their pets, and the network of friends that they feel safe going to whenever problems are bigger than one person should carry
family = a couple, their newborns, the siblings who help out, and the grandparents who are first in line to babysit
family = a single parent, their kids, and a very robust support network
family = a group of people who care about each other but aren't compatible when it comes to sharing a home, being very supportive - just from a distance - with or without other elements
and the fun thing is, you can slot any type of person into these setups!
make the two best friends look like the default "boy meets girl" rom-com pairing but with zero sexual tension.
make the people who sound like the most stereotypical suburban family, incredibly queer visually.
want your packs to be multi-generational households by default? go for it!
want to explore belonging beyond the nuclear family or the quest to create one? sure thing!
it gets even more interesting based on the social positions of the six sexes.
(in my head: primary sex = alpha, beta, omega. secondary sex = male, female. to keep from having to list them all, its "six sexes" but in some settings there can be more or less)
for example: what if there's a society that separates alphas and omegas as a general practice? it's the task of all omegas to run the towns and villages and see to their defense; alphas, on reaching presentation, are trained to watch over the land and tend to the region as a whole. if the two groups tend to mix mostly with those they share a classification with, how do their family groups appear?
or what if the society is arranged less like our human ones, and more like specific animal groups? if your packs operate more like a bee hive, how does that change their view of family, future generations, and group membership?
basically: there are lots of types of families, even irl, so making packs unique is more fun to me than going "parents and their kids" despite that being the most accurate to actual wolf pack structures
(though, since that structure isn't super typical to how we show families in media, i do kinda want to explore an established one! just not super interested in the "couple meets and raises their first baby" part because there's already a lot of focus on that as what "happily ever after" looks like. i want to get into how the following generation finds meaning and sets goals without doing as their parents did)
#omegaverse worldbuilding#omegaverse headcanons#sfw omegaverse#alpha/beta/omega dynamics#a/o/b is primary sex i will die on that hill#until or unless i see a fic where omega males are treated like alpha males#because its clearly not the being a male part thats the most important in that case lol#my example social structure may or may not have been an attempt at remembering how viera society works without referencing anything#thinking about ov when i have free time: 🤦#thinking about ov when i should be getting ready for work: 🙋#the dictionary: brain rot is 2024 word of the year!#me: ah yes... (eyes my ever growing collection of ov related google docs) dont have to defije that for me#sfw ov brain rot (affectionate)#kinda want to make an ov setting where adoption is a first choice method in modern times?#maybe as some kinda divide between the act of parenting and the act of procreation?#is it possible to do without making the setting really dark though? hmmm tbd#my brain is either “thing i like but with omegaverse added!” or “what if omegaverse worked like this?” no in between

HEY this is writing for Cap that contains a litttllllee bit of lethal company v50 spoilers! Just be aware before you read!
A bright bright summer day. The air was cool but the sun warmed its skin. It could hear its sisters running about, shouting about something or other. Everest and Jolene were 12 and 8 respectively, although Jolene was turning 9 today.
Its mother sat across from it, watching the two play in the freshly cut grass. It looked out towards them, blinded by the sun at first, moving its hand to block the ray. It observed, smiling lightly. It laughed, Everest's pink dress had gotten grass stained already even though she had said she wouldn't stain it today.
Jolene pointed towards it and their mother, stumbling backwards before coming to a stop. She yelled out to it "Come play!" and it stood, smiling brightly. Its sisters ran over, grabbing it by the arms and running it into the field. A game of tag, it thought. But something was wrong now, its sisters had stopped and were looking up at the sky. It looked at both of them before looking up as well.
Something blotted out the sun. Many somethings. Things that flew in the formation of geese but were way too big to be geese themselves.
"What is that?" Its mother asked from the table, standing up herself in order to get a better view of what her kids were looking at. All it took was a couple steps forward to make her realize what was happening. She took Jolene and Everest by the hands and yelled for it to follow as they ran.
Cold adrenaline began to bleed into it, it had never seen its mother so panicked. It looked back up to the sky, hearing what sounded like a baby crying... Why was there a baby crying? What was going on?
It ran to catch up with its family, but the sky darkened, going completely black in seconds. It couldn't move anymore. Its feet sunk into the ground. It felt time fly by, years added on to itself. It was dressed in jeans and a T-shirt one moment and a military uniform the next. It had no arm, at least not a flesh one now. The crying was louder. It kept getting louder. It tried to run, to scream out to its family. All it could do was think. I want my mom. I want to go home. I want to hold my sisters. I want to visit my dad. The crying had grabbed it, cold metallic fingers gripping its midsection with a force that burned. And then it saw the front end of a gun and heard a clicking. It raised its arms to cover its face, and suddenly it could scream out again. Burning. Burning in its legs and slowly getting higher. It cried out, Screaming in tune with the Crying. Birds shouldn't cry. Cap sprang up, hitting its head against the bunk above it. Its internal mechanisms whirred and something was clicking when it shouldn't have been. It felt its heart beat hard, the damn thing not pumping anything like blood anymore. It laid back down, thankful Ricky above it was a hard sleeper. Images flashed its vision for a few more moments before it heard his voice. "Be a better asset." It nodded in response, faintly feeling something slip from its eyes. It was a phantom feeling, but nontheless it knew what crying was. It turned on its side and tried to fall back asleep. It pictured its family. Who were those people? Why did it feel so horrible that it couldn't remember their faces?
#lethal spoilers#lethal company spoilers#v50 spoilers#lethal company old birds#lethal company#lethal company oc#lethal company employee#oc cap#writing#random ass writing spree again anyway#cw written nightmare#cw nightmare#basically cap has a trauma nightmare :o/#Its a little surreal i think . whoops#Cap was burned by a birdie once...#Only lived cause one of its buddies stunned it and broke its “eye”#(which may be related to something . or someone.. ive made. anyway)

no, but have i talked about this on here before? because i don't think i have yet. though i was just thinking about all of the different people that barton has been interested in romantically, and one of them that definitely stands out to me is auriel. because even he doesn't really know what it is, but in the main story for barton, she's been missing for quite some time. i'm talking like ever since his final year of undergrad. so, it's been more than a decade since barton has seen her and yet, he still checks whether anyone with her physical description has suddenly shown up again in gotham.
and he has actually made an effort to compile whatever evidence he could pertaining to auriel's disappearance, which... although there hasn't been anything new as to where his character is in the timeline of events right now? barton may be the only person in gotham who is actively looking for her anymore. plus, before auriel went missing, she had actually lent one of her coats to him and i swear to god... this man has never taken care of an article of clothing better than he's taken care of her coat. so, this kind of makes me wonder how barton's usual behavior could be so contrary compared to him doing something like this.
i mean, judging by how he behaves around most people (which is basically TERRIBLY, to put it simply jsjsj), i think that he must've felt like they had a deeper connection between each other somehow. though auriel herself is certainly not a villain. so i'm saying this in terms of barton perhaps trusting her enough to tell her things that he wouldn't normally tell a soul, like how he was (and still somewhat is) afraid of his bio father as a kid. but yeah — seeing as i know what had happened to her character, this hits especially hard for me 😭 because she may not be dead but auriel certainly hasn't been in a good spot for a longgg time
#OF MONSTERS AND MEN: musings.#ANGER'S HELPED ME STAY ALIVE: headcanons.#YOUR NEED GREW TEETH: character study.#ooc post.#god auriel really did deserve SO much better than what she got / where she's at overall in the story RN. but yeah i honestly think that-#barton genuinely loved her like he loved marceline but with his type of love often comes things that are ehh... definitely not so good.#i mean things like him going out of his way to make sure no one's bothering this person by hurting people who may be bullying them-#who had hurt them in the past kind of thing bc having barton's devotion is a little bit like having a WAYYY too protective guard-dog jsjsj#BUT him keeping an eye out for her even after all of this time and trying to occasionally view the evidence he gathered related to how she-#disappeared from a different angle despite barton having a rather big hunch that he's not going to find anything different.#and him only providing the best upkeep to her coat in hopes that she'll come back one day + auriel will notice that it looks the exact-#same that it did before is just - BYEEE i'm crying sobbing throwing a table because WHY can barton be like this sometimes and then-#be such a douche the next second like ;; anyways the point is if you see a penny lane coat in his closet it does in fact belong-#to auriel and it is just. GAHHH in beautiful condition still

the amount of DISDAIN I get from some ppl saying that blue flag is written for the straights.
girl I did not stay up til 6am reading this manga, tearing up and crying bc of how much I saw myself in characters like touma and masumi and how painfully relatable their pain/struggles were just for you to say that blue flag is for the straights
be so fr rn
#the usage of queer pain in blue flag was done so so SO fucking tastefully and with care towards ppl who experience similar struggles#there were so many very well done nuanced discussions not only relating to queerness but also towards other topics such as heteronormativit#and societal standards and choices and change#hell I even thought that the whole discussion on homophobia towards the end was done with care- there I said it#bc it isn't just like: HOMOPHOBIC PPL BAD!!#there's layers and different sides shown that some ppl may not agree with but Jesus Christ ITS PART OF THE FUCKING DISCUSSION#yall NEED to hear these other sides and stop closing your eyes to everything that isn't just like- homophobia bad >:(#bc god forbid we have nuanced talks about touchy subjects#sorry I'm just so annoyed that this is a fandom-wide agreement that the homophobia talk was handled badly#bc imo I don't think it was it was just trying to shine the topic in a different light#anyways this manga is brilliant and amazing and I need more ppl to read this#I'm even hoping for an anime adaptation idc if itll most likely be mediocre I just need more ppl to find this story#this manga resonated with me on such a deeply personal level as a queer person that I didn't even know was possible#'blue flag utilizes queer pain as a tool for the straights-' stfu speak for your fucking self#this manga wasn't written for the straights it was written for ME actually#blue flag

okay what’s up with the good wife out of all the media you reblog this is the most random one ?
it's not RANDOM omg that is a top three rewatch show to me... I love my silly little lawyers.... perfect mix of fun week to week cases, excellent side characters, interpersonal mess between the main cast, plus all the ways they'd imaginatively tackle Current Events. the good fight had a similar appeal - minus the focus on week to week cases and plus far more explicit politics. didn't always work, but it's one of those shows where I just kind of appreciated how willing they were to take a swing at it and get a bit weird about it. even in the good wife, they had so many Good Bits... the nsa agents who were super invested in the main cast's relationships, the liberal judge with all his Causes, the wife killer, LOUIS CANNING!! obviously, the 'in your opinion' lady, the google guy... also this is from the good fight but the federal investigator lady who always had the birds fly against her office window was a+ plus, it's such a dumb bit but it got me every time as a great appreciator of dumb bits. such a corny pair of shows that are very much like,, About Liberalism and a reckoning with that entire era of american life from an unabashedly liberal perspective, with all the inherent pitfalls and shortcomings of that pov... but does consistently manage to do interesting stuff with that starting point. a lawyer show that's also a bit of an autopsy of a mostly dead vision of america, kinda all you need sometimes
and I love alicia and will, my tragic heterosexuals!! the forbidden love of it all!! I love how cruel and selfish alicia was a lot of the time and how she's mostly in control of that relationship even though will SHOULD be the one in the position of power, how she's constantly using him and then pushing him away while will is so obviously besotted, how she simply keeps finding excuses to stop herself from being happy... does she even love him at all or does she just like him in theory, does she just want to be desired... how they always have 'bad timing' and just cannot figure their shit out... "it's romantic because it didn't happen".... "my plan is I love you" the unapologetic melodrama of it all!! the deleted voice message is?? crazy?? (eli goated character btw, the cheese lobby episode is still one of my favourite episodes of anything ever.) that lift scene is peak romance... when she leaves the firm and he feels so betrayed... his tantrum!! "I took you in when nobody wanted you"!! "you were POISON"!! "you're awful and you don't even know how awful you are"!! he's so pathetic and angry for half a season that he's resorting to just arguing with her in his head!!! always with their failed communications via phone and lift doors and loaded gazes across office spaces and delicate finger touches... the romance of it all, how they really could have worked but it's also so glaringly obvious why they kept falling apart... in the end all these repressed losers create their own misery... elite
#i know it may sometimes not seem like that on tumblr dot com but i do occasionally engage with cultural properties that aren't anime#we have the dvd boxsets back home and invariably when my mum and i can't think of a show to watch together#we fall back on 'hey let's rewatch some good wife episodes'#anyway my mum is right there with me on the 'oh my GOD leave your shitty husband' train. her kids would've been better off!!#big show for mother daughter relationships that are in enlightened agreement on the 'sometimes parents separating is Good Actually' issue#if i were the florrick children i would have simply never spoken to peter again. rip to them but i'm different#//#batsplat responds#simmering heterosexual tension for four and a half seasons only for it all to end in tragedy... that's what it's all about#also obviously kalinda was just fully in love with alicia. like that's just canon#i love rotating will/alicia/kalinda around in my head. in a very odd way i guess i do similar things to it as with faith/buffy/spike#to me the perfect dynamic is tragic heterosexual pairing + obsessive lesbian angle. god knows why. nobody psychoanalyse this#will performs such a shallow version of masculinity while being narratively so thoroughly emasculated... relatable icon#constantly doing his sad wet eyes at alicia oh he'd do anything for that lady... i get him i fear#oh to be a corrupt dirtbag lawyer who will do anything to get the unhappily married love of his life back into his world

In the same vein as the Blade Knight poll I made:
#veins rambles#veins in dream land#kirby series#kirby#sword knight#character thoughts#polls#another quandary that may or may not be related to [a secret future thing I'm working on]#as far as I know he's always had his face covered in official art and models; with only his eyes visible at any given time#so it's basically free reign regarding what's going on under that weird vent helmet of his#I like to think he keeps his extra snacks back there /j

so. i've had an idea for a warrior cats fanfiction story, and have spent the last few years hammering out characters, the clans, how they work, the story... a whole lot of stuff. i've tried writing it before, and right now i don't have a current draft of early chapters, but I did recently write out a scene from much later in the story, and i'm pretty happy with it, soooo... here! a warrior cats fic scene i wrote in like an hour a week ago
By the time she led ShadeClan to the Gathering site, Emberstar felt her anxieties lessen. Her foreleg ached from the effort of the journey, but she kept her head high. Beside her, Acornfall glanced back at their clan, then nodded over to Emberstar. He led the clan down into the Gathering hollow, and Emberstar padded over to the slope up to the leader’s perch. PineClan and CliffClan cats were already quietly milling about in the hollow, and up on the overhang she could see Lakestar and Wolfstar waiting. There was no MoorClan scent among the gathered cats.
Emberstar made her way up the slope she’d seen Gorsestar and Froststar before her traverse. It was a thin path, slowly becoming steeper and steeper as she slunk closer to the overhang, finally reaching the steep, gravelly slope that led up to the leaders’ perch. Down at the base of the cliff, she could see Acornfall joining the other deputies with a polite nod of his head, and Troutfoot was carefully weaving her way through the crowd to meet with the other healers. Emberstar twitched her whiskers when Lakestar and Wolfstar noticed her. She crouched and tensed her back legs and leapt up the slope.
It wasn’t enough to reach the top, but she reached out with her forepaw and sunk her claws into the loose gravel and dug her back paws into the ground to keep from slithering back down. She slowly inched forward, moving a kittenstep at a time, but she kept her eyes fixed on the other leaders, more determined than ashamed of herself. Emberstar forced herself up the slope, but her heart skipped a beat when the gravel under her paw proved too loose to get a good enough grip- so close to the top, too. What a shame she had no other forepaw to lash out and find a grip with.
Emberstar felt herself begin to slide back down the slope, but a pair of jaws grasped her by the scruff and hoisted her up onto the overhang. She clawed at the grass and stumbled a step when let go and turned to meet Wolfstar’s amused gaze. “Careful there, three-paw,” the CliffClan leader gruffly purred. “It’s bad luck to fall at your first Gathering as leader.” She brushed past Emberstar to sit back down next to Lakestar.
With a huff, Emberstar followed her with a shake of her pelt. “I appreciate your help, but I would have been fine on my own. I suppose I owe you now?”
Wolfstar’s whiskers twitched. “Are you saying ShadeClan is now in CliffClan’s debt?”
The young leaders stared at each other, then broke out into amused purrs. Lakestar rolled her eyes and wrapped her tail around her paws. “So, you are ShadeClan’s leader now, Emberstar? Or is it still Emberblaze?”
“It is Emberstar now. I visited the Moon Cavern for my lives only a few sunrises ago.”
“May StarClan light your path as leader, then.” Lakestar stiffly dipped her head. Despite the brusque words, there was genuine respect in her pale eyes.
Wolfstar’s own eyes were still bright with humor. “You’ll be great, I know it. What happened to Froststar, then?”
Emberstar narrowed her eyes and turned her gaze to the gathered cats. “I’ll explain that once the Gathering begins. MoorClan is late tonight.” She surveyed the crowd of cats, peering straight down at the huddled healers. Sitting with her back to her PineClan clanmates, Flarelight was sitting close to Troutfrost. After a moment, she gazed up at the overhang, and her eyes met Emberstar’s. Her eyes grew wide and she stared at her littermate for a long moment until another healer got her attention. Then, as if she’d seen nothing, Flarelight flicked her tail and joined the conversation. Her twitching tail-tip was the only hint that she was distracted. Emberstar blinked. She’d become leader so recently that not even the other healers knew, much less the other clans’ warriors. In the crowd of CliffClan cats, she spotted Sunscorch, sitting with his fur brushing Moonwhisper’s, his eyes wide and his body stiff while he stared at his sister up on the overhang.
Poor Sunscorch, so softhearted under those honed claws and strong limbs- he was likely to take the news of Froststar’s death the hardest. Emberstar held his gaze, blinked slowly, and turned her head to the sky. The moon was nearly overhead, and still MoorClan was absent.
“You ought to start the Gathering now,” Wolfstar growled to Lakestar. “It’s newleaf, after all, and if MoorClan’s late then they’re late.”
“We should wait,” Emberstar sharply mewed. “This is my first Gathering as leader, so it would be disrespectful to me as well as MoorClan if we begin without them. It may anger StarClan as well,” she finished in a murmur, flicking her tail-tip up at the sky. Wolfstar just bushed out her stormy gray fur and huffed.
Lakestar gazed up at the sky. Emberstar looked over at her. For so long, as an apprentice, as a warrior, as the deputy, she’d never dared to be so close to the cold PineClan leader. But now, she was barely a tail-length from the sleek silver tabby, and they sat as equals in standing. Lakestar was likely at less than nine lives and Emberstar was without a right foreleg, but they were equals nonetheless.
She was knocked from her thoughts by Wolfstar headbutting her. The larger cat nearly shoved her off-balance. “Glad to see that we’re both finally up here. I was waiting to see when you’d catch up, three-paw.”
Emberstar licked Wolfstar’s ear. “You know I must take things slower than you.”
“Who’d you pick as deputy?” Wolfstar leaned over the edge to inspect the group of deputies. “Hm- Acornfall?”
“He’s a good warrior. Older than me by four seasons, so I trust his advice and his skill.”
“I thought you would have picked Lavenderflash. Or maybe Darknose, you two always seemed close.”
Emberstar gazed down at Lavenderflash, spotting the pure-black molly quickly- she was almost certain there was obvious fondness in her eyes as she looked at her former apprentice. “Lavenderflash is… young and still training her first apprentice. She is a good, loyal warrior, but not fit to be deputy or eventual leader in my mind. And Darknose…” The tom was sitting at the edge of the crowd, alone. “He is a possibility, but he still mourns his brother even all these moons later, so I don’t know if he would be the best choice.”
Wolfstar made a sniff of approval, then her gaze snapped to the far hill. A yowl rang out, and the three leaders pricked their ears and the cats in the hollow turned to see MoorClan finally arrive, led by Applestar. Emberstar sat stiffly until she spotted Glowflame in the crowd, side-by-side with Orangeclaw. He joined the cats in the hollow with his clan while Applestar broke off to climb up to the overhang, and he seemed to murmur something to Orangeclaw before she angled her ears up at Emberstar. Glowflame looked up and spotted her, and his jaw dropped open. Emberstar couldn’t help but let out a purr of affection for her brother as he gaped in amazement at her.
Applestar greeted the other leaders when he finally joined them, nodding briefly at Emberstar, and hurriedly sat down next to Lakestar, his mottled fur standing up along his spine. The leaders gave the cats in the hollow a few moments to settle down. In that time, Emberstar saw her littermates make their ways through the crowd towards each other. By the time Lakestar threw back her head and yowled to signify the beginning of the Gathering, Flarelight, Sunscorch, and Glowflame sat huddled together with their eyes trained on their sister. Emberstar met their gazes for just a heartbeat and felt the final icicles of her anxiety melt away.
She then turned her head to watch Lakestar as she began to announce her clan’s news for the moon, and reminded herself of what she had to announce when it was her turn. She was ShadeClan’s leader, now. StarClan had approved of her. Emberstar lifted her chin and, with a deep breath, finally settled into her place at the head of her clan.

turning this into my lore discussion blog too cause i hate text posting on main so bad but if messmer doesn't have something to do with the blood star atp i'll cry. i love the blood star. i want to know more. it'd be interesting if he was cursed by it like miq and malenia are, or even if he just otherwise got in communion with it. i understand where ppl are coming from w/ dragon communion for him and that could be very likely but his fire/the emblem on his cape literally look like the shapw of the briars of punishment. which IS similar to the shape of the dragon communion emblem. but !?!?!? idk. there are some connections with dragon communion and blood related entities (eleonora) so anything is possible
#clyde.txt#i don't think blood star is formless mother but it COULD be true. but idk yet. remains to be seen. so i would just love some answers....#if you need blindness to commune with the blood star messmer Does have his one closed eye...?#mohg also has a pierced eye tho which may be a relation between blood star & formless mother#but there's differences between them....
