I LOVE YOU YSAYLE ‼️‼️‼️ she deserves the world

[lunie-junk]

Icicles don't soften when they die       

They sharpen into sabers and they stab you in the eye

Just a quick thing I did bits of between work. I miss Ysayle... :(

"...They declaired you a heretic, too, haven't they?"

headcanon below (HW spoilers)

In the game where the WoL finds Ysayle in the heretic hideout, my headcanon had Ridel chased down by suspect Ishgardian soldiers while on his mission to seek out her hideaway. They were no sooner laid low by his "Moonshadow"- something he had yet to understand or control... and Ysayle had come upon the aftermath...

(It also was the reason why he, Alphinaud and Tataru were tried for herecy upon his return...)

Warrior Bites: Tunnel Buns

For the Warrior Bites series, also check out: The Rules, and The Tools!

[Image ID: Three rabbit-shaped baked goods. The first two have ‘ears’ that connect at the back. The third is darker, shinier, and fancier, with ornate markings.]

"It’s not enough that WindClan has a warren for a diet, all their food has to look like rabbits too!”

Clan of Origin: WindClan

Occasion: Travel ration, trade good

Requires: Oven

An old recipe originally made for Tunnelers, to have a ration that wouldn’t get filthy from all the dirt underground. Unleavened dough is molded into the shape of a rabbit, stuffed and baked with mincemeat and spices, and then fastened to a belt by the ‘ears‘ of the tunnelbun.

Traditionally, the tunnel bun was cut open by a claw and the stuffing was licked out, the dirty crust discarded underground. Since tunnel buns survived the death of tunneling, sometimes the crust is now eaten in bites along with the stuffing. These are a valued good for trade, as WindClan is the only Clan that can create dough.

Step 1: WindClan’s Dough Quest

[Image ID: Breezepelt from Warrior Cats, a solid black cat with yellow eyes, gathers wheat in his mouth. Behind him is a field and blue skies. He is smiling and winking.]

Rye, wheat, barley, and oats are all candidates to create the dough, but the one that WindClan chooses is mostly dependent on what's available. Grains grow best on WindClan territory, but often escape nearby twoleg farms to grow wild which is how WindClan gathers them...

But there are, occasionally, hard years with low yield where the warriors will risk swiping stalks. They try not to take too much, having noticed that twolegs are more likely to invest in dogs when they steal too much.

So, in an attempt to be honorable and polite, WindClan warriors will leave a “gift” at the doorstep of a farmer who they’ve taken some wheat from. Usually a rat or a crow. This seems to work, resulting in less loose dogs and thrown boots and more of the twoleg sound of friendliness, ‘pspsps.‘

Step 2: The Bakening

[Image ID: A batch of tunnelbuns is on a stone slab, ready to roll into a stone oven. Mudclaw, a brown tabby cat, is rolling dough flat with a stick. His brother, Torear, a gray tabby, is sitting off to the side, smiling. They are at the border of WindClan territory, with Fourtrees in the distance.]

WindClan’s general diet consists of an obscene amount of rabbits and they’re always seeking new ways to make rabbit meat taste different.

Tunnel Buns used to just be stuffed with marinated mincemeat, whatever they happened to have laying around after taking the best cuts for other things. Organs, toes, shredded ears, tossed in gravy and baked.

WindClan's oven is specially designed to accommodate making an entire batch of Tunnelbuns all at once. The stone tray rests on a wooden lean, so the edge of the stone is never too hot to grab and roll out.

This oven is considerably more advanced than the simple ones of the other Clans, thanks to the savviness of Tunnelers contributing to an early problem-solving culture and WindClan's unique access to grains for flour.

Step 3: Specialization

[Image ID: 3 traditional tunnelbuns and 2 fancy tunnelbuns are arranged in a row. The white paw of Scourge is reaching for one that has distinctive tabby markings, a notch in one ear, and a stripe across the nose.]

“Traditional Tunnelbuns” were made with function in mind, with clearer emphasis on the ‘ear loop’ to feed through a belt. In the modern, post-Tunneling era, this dish has a WILD amount of variation.

Even the simplest, plainest ‘traditional tunnelbun’ usually has a stylized “face“ so you can tell at a glance which one was made BY whom, and FOR whom. Mudclaw would be very upset if he bit into the wrong tunnelbun and got a mouthful of bug meat, his brother Torear’s favorite!

“Fancy Tunnelbuns” are made to be immediately eaten in camp, and as such, the ‘ear loop‘ is more of a decoration. They’re distinguished by being ornate, and usually full of higher-quality cuts of meat. These ones are also shiny, having been washed with egg during the baking process.

Because they’re traditionally eaten by slicing the bun open from tail-to-chin... there is a new, beloved joke about them after Tigerstar’s defeat.

Tunnel Buddies

[Image ID: Three baked goods in the shape of various animals, including a deer, duck, and large fish.]

WindClan and Tunnelbuns are as synonymous as RiverClan and Fish. No other Clan can access the grains to make them. You could say tunnelbuns are the Clan equivalent of hotcakes; everybody wants them.

So WindClan often makes fancy tunnelbuns in the shapes of other animals, in bigger sizes. Non-rabbit tunnelbuns are colloquially referred to as “Tunnelbuddies.“

They make appearances in trades, festivals, and other multi-Clan events where WindClan is looking to make a display of friendliness towards honored guests.

Very little thing, but—I love that Molly isn’t just the Ice Spinner, his scimitars are called the Iceheart Swords. That’s just?? So cute and sweet? He’s such a romantic and loves his little stage names—

Also, his little smirk and the curl of his tail as he takes his bow?? Please I love him so much—

[kimiyaxiv]

Was super tired and forgot to post this here! Second of the Six FFXIV NPC Fanarts is Iceheart, requested by Aerumna in my FC!

Much as I find making nice lines satisfying, I don't often like how they turn out, so I'm liking this cleaned-up sketch look at the moment. Just gotta avoid using that as a crutch to get away with flawed construction lol 😬

Fireheart's and Icefoot's family tree!

Without the names:

With the names:

NOTES: In this family tree, some cats are missing for space issues, but they don't impact the family tree so much.

There is some info that couldn't make it to the post, for space issues, and would be too long for an already long post, and last, the designs are not final.

About the lines:

Red: Cats that are currently in a relationship/are a couple;

Dark red: Cats that are not together anymore, that broke up, and that are exes;

Green: It's the couple's or cat's offspring, if there's one line connecting others, that means that they are siblings;

Adopted: It's a cat or cats that were adopted by a couple or another cat;

Yellow: Are for cats that are also in another family tree in the clans.

Changes:

Ferris is now the father of both Fireheart and Icefoot(Scourge), with Princess, Ruby and Socks as their other littermates, Nutmeg is fused with Quince is the mother of all of them.

Iceheart's name has been changed to Icefoot, since i'm thinking about some things, and i'm experimenting the name Icefoot for him, since i want to him to be more his own cat, than Fireheart's shadow.

Jake became Flameface and is Talltail's mate, he is alive when the brothers came to the clans and dies in the start of the second arc.

Ruby is Smoke here, she and Onewhisker have a little thing, before he decides to sets up with Whitetail, and decides to bring and adopt Darktail with Whitetail, and later have Heathertail.

Tigerheart is not Tawnyclaw's(Rewrite Tawnypelt) son anymore, and now is only Rowanclaw's son, so he's not related anymore to Dovewing(note: In canon he's related to her, since both have Speckletail as great grandma/great great grandma, and i wanted to avoid incest, but i wanted to know if i should keep it as i made or if Tawnyclaw should still be his mother).

Squirrelflight does get with Brambleflower still, but they broke up after he discovered that she was barren, since he wanted a family, so he got together with Jessy(she came to the clans early, as they were moving to the lakes and joined Thunderclan), and had kits with her, Alder and Spark, later Omen of stars, but after she dies(in the great battle), he runs aways to become a kittypet(based on that rumour, that he was supposed to run away in The last hope), and Squirrelflight adopts both Alder and Spark.

Leafpool and Crowtail(Rewrite's Crowfeather, as Feathertail is not in the TNP's crew anymore, instead is Swallowtail, that dies in Feather's place in TNP, so Crow in her memory, asks to be named after her) actually have a little more developed romance, as Leafpaw was chosen instead of Brambleflower to go to the journey, so that the crew would have a healer, so they bonded alot in the journey, the clans comes to the lake, they run away together, they come back, Crow dumps her for not choosing him over her clan, she gets over him, since Leafpool notices that him was being unreasonable with her, wanting her to abandon her for him, when they need her the most.

Leafpool has Lionblaze, Hollyleaf, Jayfeather and Breezepelt, yes, Breeze is Leafpool's kit here, Jay is now called Jayflight in honour of Squirrelflight for taking care of them, while Leaf was doing her duties, alot of things happens before TPo3, as Leafpool says Queen's rights, so that she and her family can raise the 4's in peace, but Crowtail, after getting with Nightcloud to prove that he's loyal, and getting her pregnant, notices that Leafpool is also pregnant with his kits, and demands the kits, making alot of fight between the clans, after he started demanding the kits, Nightcloud broke up with him.

Nightcloud gives birth to stillborns, and while the clans were fighting for the kits, Leafpool discovers about Nightcloud and what happened to her first litter, and talks to her in secret, while Night was angry with her because of Crowtail, they come to an aggrement, that Nightcloud can have one of Leaf's kits if she has more than one to raise as her own, so with that, the fight can stop and Nightcloud can have a family.

When Leafpool's kits were born, Nightcloud decides to adopt Breeze, while she wanted also Holly, she had to keep their aggrement, she raised Breeze, and he gets the warrior name of Breezecloud to match his mother, while that, Crowtail is still an absent father as ever.

Who are the cats missing?

The one that is missing that is kinda of obviously, is Mothwing, since after Crowtail's drama, Leafpool wanted comfort and came to Mothwing for it, they bonded, starting to see each other in Pot3, and by the start of Omen of the stars, they became mates in secrets.

Lionblaze and Hollyleaf have mates, Lionblaze is mates with Berrynose, as they were rivals, later became lovers and adopts Cherrypaw(Cherryfall) and Sorrelpaw(Sorreltail), Hollyleaf is mates with Cinderheart, they were best friends, but only in Omen of the stars, when Hollyleaf returns to the clans, they decide to become mates.

Another one is Blossomfall, as she is Ivypool's mate here, but i left her out in purpose, since i'm still deciding if she would be in Graystripe's and Silverstream's second litter, or as Millie's litter with another cat in Thunderclan(originally, i planned that Blossomfall parents being Millie and the surrogate being Longtail), but now i'm kind of torn appart in which way i should do it, maybe i should do a poll someday to decide this.

If you find any grammar errors, tell me and i will fix it, since i made this in the one in the morning in my timezone.
