…….. Thinkin’ about….. Making “Redtail” and “Spottedleaf” into one character……..

[ails-of-ardor-au]

You know what would be interesting? If Snowkit survived and later became the leader after Goldenstar. His mother instead taking the hit by the hawk and unfortunately getting a injury she couldn't heal from. Snowkit would have no other family as, from the wiki, his sister is dead, his father died properly after going to the elder den? His mother would've died. However, it is mentioned Goldenflower as his sister too.

So! Maybe Snowkit was a kitten found and let to stay in Thunderclan. No one claiming him, due to one reason or another. Perhaps Speckletail wanted to, but grief over losing Mistlekit made her unfortunately not ready to take in a kit so soon. So Snowkit was simply left alone. (It's not mentioned he was young enough to still need milk, so probably just at apprentice age before dying.) Therefore, no family ties, and would face challenges due to his disability, but in the end succeed.

That’s so valid though…

Snowkit could have been found, as it’s pretty clear when a kitten is deaf as soon as they’re up and about, and his dame could have thought he wouldn’t last long and abandoned him near Clan territory to at least give him a fighting chance, as the Clans have built up a reputation for “taking in the unwanted”.

A kitten’s hearing develops around two weeks, and the average nursing time for a kit is roughly 3-to-4 weeks. Snowkit could be around one moon old exactly: young enough for his lack of hearing not to be immediately clocked by ThunderClan while still needing milk, but old enough to reasonably survive on his own for at least a day or so until he’s found by a patrol.

Speckletail lost her litter of Mistlekit (and maybe others) due to complications caused by her old age; it’s a miracle she, herself, wasn’t lost. The Clan, although guiltily, breathes a sigh of relief; if those kittens had lived, they would have ruled out their only hope of leadership, i.e. Goldenflower. But when Snowkit is brought to ThunderClan, Speckletail agrees to nurse him as a way to get over some of her grief plus out of necessity; she doesn’t adopt him, but I think it would be cute if she stuck around out of the elder’s den long enough to even train him personally. Stubborn Speckletail teaching Snowkit not only how to sign, but to stick up for himself? Sign me up!!

For pride month as well lol, we could also state that Snowkit grows up and comes out as aro-ace, which automatically wins him massive favor in the “Goldenstar’s successor race”. He becomes a fierce warrior, a bold advocate for other disabled cats, and he brings a new language to the Clans; they’d need to learn for talks with ThunderClan’s pure white leader, after all!

LOVE THIS!!
