Blood in the River is a universe in a post apocalyptic world five hundred years after the war.

Humans are gone and only animals remain, the story focuses on six colonies of cats trying to find a weapon to end a threat to the colonies existence as a whole.

The colonist cats have special powers called Mutations which show within a few months of life, from ram horns to telekinesis. The mutations occur as a blessing from the two creators of the colonies, The Patron and the Founder, and also as a result due to radiation left over form the war.

Ranking scars are essentially a way of showing rank through scars! There are six colonies in total, but they all bare the same scars for their respective rank. This is a way for other cats to instantly recognize rank and be able to react accordingly. The process of these scars existing is done through a religious ceremony involving moon and/or sun blessed water (depending on the colony) and a sacred stone from the first colonists.

Each rank has a very important role to a colony as they all take a responsibility to uphold their society.

Kits are just.. well they’re kits! Their responsibility is to have fun and listen to the Veterans about colony history and other colonists educating them about their code and way of life. Their mutations manifest by 3-4 months and ALL colonists have some form of mutation. They have no scars.

Neophytes are essentially students, they are assigned an Advisor by a Shepherd, the highest rank of the colony. The Shepherd starts scouting for a suitable Advisor during a cat’s kithood to guide them to their future rank in their colony. Neophytes gain a scar across the bridge of their muzzle by their Advisor with the guidance of a Shepherd.

Rangers are the most populous and common rank within the colonies, they are essential workers that do day to day duties like hunting, patrolling, and gathering supplies. Since being such a popular rank, they have a lot of free time to focus on hobbies like weaving and craftsmanship. Rangers are trained to swim, fight, and hunt. They gain a scar on their right cheek.

Couriers are essentially messengers, the colonies have huge territories and they need a reliable way to communicate to one another about trouble or needs of assistance. The colonies do meet once a month during the new moon, but they’d like to discuss matters more frequently than this. Couriers are typically the fastest cats in the colonies and usually mutations including flight, teleportation, or speed end up becoming Couriers. They are often mediators too due to having a well rounded sense of each colony and having little bias. They gain a second nose bridge scar.

Wardens are guards that are stationed outside the base within their colony, the base being where the colonists sleep and live. They also are required to escort patrols and are the first line of attack in any fight. If not out on a patrol or guarding a colonist, they’re usually found outside the base. They’re typically the strongest cats within their colony, but isn’t required. They gain a scar on their right eyebrow.

Sitters have the important role of educating kits on the colony life and code. Sitters can take the place of parents if a kit’s mother is required to return to their duty or just wishes to leave their nursing stages early. Sitters have to know about all of the kits needs and wants and assist in helping the Shepherd find a proper Advisor for them when they graduate to Neophyte. They’re almost always in the base and only ever leave to guide the kits around the territory. They gain a scar on their chin.

Medics are the doctors within the colony and they take care of sick/injured cats. It is in the Colony Code that Medics are not to be harmed in battle or any facet. Medics are not fighters and are rarely trained to do so, focusing more on herbal medicine and cat anatomy. Medics are especially important with pregnant cats, ensuring proper nutrition and birthing. They gain a lip scar on the left side of their face.

Vices are the second highest rank in the colonies, they serve directly to the Shepherd and are second in charge. A Vice also will take the role of Shepherd if a Shepherd passes or passes away. Usually a Shepherd has multiple Vices and if this is the case, the colony as a whole votes on who they wish to be Shepherd and that Vice then gets elected. Vices are in charge of managing the patrols and keeping a headcount on prey and herbs. They assist the Shepherd in trade deals as well as overall decision making. It is stated a good Shepherd has multiple Vices to get multiple opinions. They gain a cheek scar on the left side of their face.

Shepherds are the highest rank in a colony, they run the colony as a whole and are in charge of the biggest decisions. They are in charge of interpreting omens from their Deities and each rank ceremony. They also represent their colony as a whole and during these New Moon Assemblies, they speak for their colony as a whole. Shepherds are to be highly respected, regardless of colony affiliation. Depending on how religious the Shepherd is, their word can be on the same level as if a Deity themselves was speaking through them, this takes a lot of trust to ensure from the colonists of their colony to believe though. A Shepherd is blessed by the Founder or Patron (depending on colony) and they lose all their ranking scars and are blessed with a star marking on their forehead. They are also granted an extra life to ensure their prosperity and their colony’s.

Veterans are retired colonists who are either too old to continue their responsibilities or too injured. They’re highly respected and are responsible for giving a lack education about colony history, everything being spread of word of mouth. Their mutations grow weaker as they get older, but that doesn’t mean they’re helpless, some Veterans will help Rangers in fixing the base up or Medics with organization, really anything to keep themselves busy.

Tamagotchi Uni Sitter Leaves at 6:00PM & is Now Free!

Be careful! If you’re familiar with the Tamagotchi Sitter from previous version of Tamagotchi such as the Tamagotchi Pix, then you’ll want to be careful about the time you return. Unlike the Tamagotchi Pix, the Tamagotchi Uni sitter leaves at 6:00PM, unlike the Tamagotchi Pix’s 6:55PM. That’s almost a whole extra hour earlier.

Another perk is that the sitter on the Tamagotchi Uni is completely free! So if they have to leave an hour earlier, and it’s free, that’s fine with us!

i have this little thought bouncing around in my head! single father simon. (a drabble)

*shrug*

simon ends up with his daughter winnie after her mother abandons her at his doorstep. he was the father, it was his turn to take care of her. simon could handle warfare, he could handle guns and sweat and metal. he could handle blood and bruises.

but a fussy newborn was a little too much for him.

enter you, it was your summer off from university and you were making extra money by babysitting for parents who couldn't afford weeks of posh summer camps. it was decent work and you were pretty good with them! so being concerned for your neighbour, simon's well being, you offered to watch winnie.

simon very well fell in love with you the moment you took the baby girl into you arms. winnie instantly got settled into your grasp, almost like you were her mother.

"what a lovely baby girl." you cooed, you looked at her with such affection already. you looked at simon and smiled, "she looks too cute to be yours." a playful jab.

you watched winnie while simon was at work. you didn't know what he did for work, but you tried not to ask too many questions. all you knew was that the checks didn't bounce when you cashed them.

but being with winnie for so many days had gossip go through the apartment building. you had a baby with simon? why were you in two separate apartments? where did the lovely newborn sleep? she SHOULD be sleeping with her mother (you).

when you tried to correct them, simon always said, "ah don't worry. we'll be havin' our own place soon enough!" his large hand snaked around your waist.

you just looked down at winnie who was sound asleep in her stroller. she couldn't care less who her mommy and daddy were. it wouldn't be hard to be the mother she'd otherwise be without, right?

that was the angle that simon too.

you'd make the most perfect mrs. riley. you were already taking care of winnie, but also him when he came home. you shouldn't be the nanny, you should be winnie's mama.

"she really loves you." simon remarked when you went with him to the pool.

you were in a one piece swim suit and you were making sure that the baby was out of the sun and had sunscreen on. you didn't want her to get sick or burned.

currently she was resting on your chest while you were in the shade. in your free hand you had a book in it and the other was on winnie's back. you said, "i don't know what you're talking about." as if you hadn't heard the comments from the little old ladies about how sweet you two looked.

"look like a real mama."

you looked to him and raised your eyebrows, "i thought i was the babysitter, mister riley."

simon placed a hand on your thigh then rubbed up and down, "nah."

it didn't take long for you and simon to get intimate. he asked you to stay because winnie had been having trouble sleeping. you two shared a glass of wine and then you found yourself face first into simon's bed. the scent of him filled your head as he fucked you into the comfortable mattress.

he loved the sound of your pussy as he fucked you without much abandon. the thickness on your hips would only grow once he made sure his next child was inside of you. you'd be such a good mama, unlike that previous bitch who left him.

maybe there was a good reason why she left him.

cum clung to the fuzz on your pussy lips and was a bitch to clean in the shower come morning.

he woke you up and said, "she needs her mama. she gettin' fussy, doll." then watched you stumble around to find clothes to wear while you checked on winnie as if the little girl was your own. his hand was wrapped around his cock. he wondered how many more times he could finish in you before you stumbled back to your apartment.

the answer was four.

it wouldn't be easy carrying for a sprouting little baby plus the baby boy you were currently pregnant with. you've put school off for a little while and moved in with simon, your due date was in the middle of the semester. now you were trying to figure out what food was good for a teething winnie while also trying to manage the riley son that was occupying your womb.

you were making dinner for your growing family with a cute little maternity dress of. simon was at the table with winnie. he knew that one day he'd have to tell her that you weren't her actual mama. but you were raising her and her little brother too.

"see there's mama." simon said in that grumbled voice of his, pointing in your direction.

you didn't imagine that you would've ended up as a stay-at-home mother to two children who were than a year apart. but as you felt the shift of your 'second' baby inside of you, you smiled.

you heard winnie make a little noise to get your attention. you checked on the pot of sauce on the stove before you turned away to check on your little girl.

To the woman who raised me and others, when we were little, to giving us warm hugs and sweet memories. I only wish now to return that warmth back. Wishing you good health and happiness in your life, Grandma.

Lilia: Maleficia wants you to wear this from now on.

MC: But he didn't explain to me why.

Grim: Hench-human! We're going to be late!

MC: Hmm... Well, it won't be good for me to defy the Queen.

MC: I'll just wear it then like Lilia said.

Jamil: What's with the headdress?

MC: Ah, Queen Maleficia has asked me to wear this.

Jamil: Really?

Jamil: ...

Jamil: *smirks*

MC: Why are you smirking?

Jamil: I'm guessing you don't know the significance of that headdress.

MC: Lilia didn't tell me what it was for.

Jamil: And that's for the better.

MC: ...

The baby dragon: *has been staring at them with fondness*

Malleus: ...

Malleus: *smiles* Please give me a moment. *disappears*

MC: ?

Malleus: *comes back with a ring*

MC: ...

The baby dragon: KRRRRRRR!!!!!
