How Jordan Romero Became the Youngest Person to Reach Everest’s Summit
On May 22, 2010, Jordan Romero made history by becoming the youngest person to summit Mount Everest. At just 13 years and 10 months old, this American teenager achieved a feat that most seasoned climbers only dream of. Romero’s journey to the top of the world wasn’t just a story of determination and grit but also one of meticulous preparation, teamwork, and a clear vision that began at an extraordinarily young age.
Tumblr media
The Seed of a Dream
Romero’s fascination with mountains began when he was just nine years old. A mural of the Seven Summits — the highest peaks on each continent — in his school hall sparked his imagination. While many children might have dismissed such a dream as impossible, Romero took it as a challenge. With unwavering support from his father, Paul Romero, and stepmother, Karen Lundgren, both experienced athletes, he began charting his course to climb the Seven Summits.
By the time Romero decided to tackle Everest, he had already summited Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, Mount Elbrus in Europe, Mount Kosciuszko in Australia, and Aconcagua in South America. Each climb served as a stepping stone, providing invaluable experience and building his confidence.
Preparation for Everest
Everest is not a mountain to be taken lightly, especially for someone as young as Romero. The preparation for this expedition was intense. Romero’s parents played a pivotal role in ensuring that he was physically, mentally, and emotionally prepared for the challenge. They trained together as a team, focusing on endurance, strength, and altitude acclimatization.
Romero also underwent rigorous technical training to hone his climbing skills. His family consulted with seasoned mountaineers, doctors, and other experts to assess potential risks. Nutrition, hydration, and oxygen use were carefully studied and incorporated into his training regimen.
The team chose to climb Everest from the northern Tibetan side, considered less crowded than the southern Nepalese route. This decision was strategic, as the northern route is believed to be slightly less prone to avalanches and offers a longer summit day but more stable weather conditions. However, it is technically more challenging, requiring climbers to traverse the daunting North Col and the treacherous Second Step.
The Journey to the Summit
Romero’s Everest expedition was a family affair. Accompanied by his father, stepmother, and three Sherpa guides, he set off on this extraordinary journey. The climb was not without challenges. Harsh weather conditions, the effects of high altitude, and the physical demands of the mountain tested the team’s resolve.
Romero faced the same dangers as any other climber, including frostbite, hypothermia, and acute mountain sickness (AMS). Yet, his young age added a layer of complexity. Critics questioned whether someone so young should be exposed to such risks, sparking a broader debate about age limits for high-altitude climbing. Romero, however, demonstrated maturity beyond his years. He showed remarkable discipline in following safety protocols, conserving energy, and maintaining focus on his goal.
The team’s meticulous planning paid off. On May 22, 2010, at around 9:45 a.m., Jordan Romero stood atop the 29,032-foot summit of Mount Everest. Holding a banner with the names of supporters and well-wishers, he gazed out at the Himalayan expanse, accomplishing a dream that had once seemed impossible.
The Aftermath and Legacy
Romero’s achievement garnered international attention. At just 13 years old, he had not only conquered Everest but also inspired countless people worldwide. His accomplishment highlighted the importance of determination, preparation, and the support of a strong team.
However, Romero’s journey didn’t end there. By the age of 15, he completed his Seven Summits quest by climbing Antarctica’s Vinson Massif, becoming the youngest person in the world to achieve this feat. His story has since been chronicled in a book, No Summit Out of Sight: The True Story of the Youngest Person to Climb the Seven Summits, co-authored with Linda LeBlanc. The book serves as both a memoir and a motivational guide for aspiring adventurers.
Lessons from Romero’s Journey
Jordan Romero’s story is a testament to the power of dreams and the human spirit’s capacity for perseverance. His journey underscores several valuable lessons:
Set Ambitious Goals: Romero’s ambition to climb the Seven Summits shows the importance of dreaming big and setting clear objectives.
Preparation is Key: His extensive training and planning were crucial to his success, proving that careful preparation is often the foundation of great achievements.
Teamwork Matters: Romero’s success was not a solo effort. The support and expertise of his family and guides were indispensable.
Believe in Yourself: Despite facing criticism and doubt, Romero believed in his abilities and stayed committed to his dream.
Conclusion
Jordan Romero’s ascent of Mount Everest at such a young age is a story of inspiration and courage. It challenges conventional notions of what is possible and reminds us that age is just a number when it comes to chasing our dreams. His accomplishment continues to motivate adventurers and dreamers around the world, proving that no summit is out of reach if one dares to climb.

Fettuccine Cookie Headcanons
Tumblr media
In game
She is the only cookie (other than golden cheese) who didn’t disappear when Golden’s kingdom was destroyed, because she was in a sarcophagus when it happened
After Golden Cheese wakes up and accepts that her kingdom is gone, Fettuccine follows her around like a little puppy
She has tried eating one of her bows (can you really blame her? It’s pasta)
She befriended Olive Cookie shortly after the events of the Golden Cheese update, and Olive loves to show Fettuccine all the historical stuff she’s discovered over the years
When she heard that Golden Cheese was going to rebuild the kingdom, Fettuccine went into the mines to grab a bunch of wood scraps to help Golden (and Golden definitely cried)
Sometimes visits Gingerbrave in his kingdom and he gives her a tour every. single. time.
She can fall asleep anywhere. Benches, sidewalks, grass, sand gravel: she sleeps everywhere
She’s the type to do that cartoony “*snort* mimimimimi” type of snoring when she does sleep
The candy pasta from Jampie Diner is her favorite food
Modern au
Was adopted by Golden Cheese, and she’s the youngest of her siblings (Burnt Cheese and Mozzarella)
Hides everywhere. In cabinets, behind couches, literally anywhere in sight
She’s scared of just about everything, so that’s why she hides so much
Once she was less scared of Golden Cheese, her favorite hiding spot became under Golden’s shirt
Very accident prone. You know that kid on the playground that was always covered in different colored band-aids? Yeah, that’s her
A surprisingly good climber. Golden Cheese has found her stealing snacks while on top of the counter several times
Freaking loves pasta. Doesn’t matter what shape it is, what’s on it, or how long it’s been sitting in the fridge, if it’s pasta, she’ll eat it
She got sick a few times from eating two-week-old pasta from the back of the fridge
Dresses up as a mummy every year for Halloween. The way she sticks her arms up and squeaks “I’m a mummy!” Steals everyone’s heart and she ends up with a literal mountain of candy every year
Sometimes she jumpscares her siblings by jumping out of closets with her mummy costume on. They’ve gotten used to it, but still pretend to be scared to make Fettuccine smile
Mimics a lot of her mothers actions, and sometimes tries to steal clothes from her mothers closet
That’s all! Let me know if you guys have any other headcanons for her!

Something moving started to pull him from the deeper sleep he had been enjoying. It wasn’t the first time he felt something move while sleeping. It frequently happens; he ignores it and continues to sleep, which is how it usually goes. His tentacles, reacting to the emotions that his dreams stir, are typically what he feels when moving about in bed. 
This was different, though.
It felt like small hands pushing on his back as someone was climbing on him. Soft, hushed voices telling the one who was climbing him confirmed his suspension. Nightmare groaned softly before opening his eye and looking at the little skeletons. Killer continued to climb up on him, settling down in the center of his back, making it hard for Nightmare to see him.
“killer,” Horror hissed softly in a whisper, “you woke him up.”
“i did?” Killer asked without the care of keeping quiet.
“You did,” Nightmare said before yawning. Slowly sitting up, he felt Killer safely slip down onto the bed in a fit of giggles.
“sorry,” Dust said softly.
“No need to apologize. I actually had a pleasant sleep. I hope you four did as well,” Nightmare said as his tendrils curled around the four small skeletons in a hug. “Now, if only I woke up on my own accord and not because some little minion decided to start crawling all over me. A rude awakening by an intrepid mountain climber is a poor start to a day.”
“intepit?” Cross asked.
“In-trep-id,” Nightmare corrected.
“intrepid,” Cross said, trying again.
“There you go, it means fearless or adventurous,” Nightmare explained.
“that’s me!” Killer exclaimed, holding his arms up excitedly.
Nightmare used a tendril to pick the child up, purposefully holding him upside-down, “Yes, that was you, but your actions were still rude. Were they not?”
Killer giggled, “sorry!”
“Why do I doubt that you are?” Nightmare asked, and Killer giggled more as Nightmare set him back down. “Alas, the youth these days have no respect for their elders. Whatever is an old man like me to do?”
“i re-pect you, mr. night,” Cross said quickly before whispering to Horror, “what’s re-pect mean?”
“respect, it means… um…,” Horror put his hand to his chin as he thought. “i know what it means just… um…”
“You are unsure how to define it, or put it into words?” Nightmare asked, and Horror nodded. “Start, and I will help you when you need it.”
“okay, um. it means that you… show uh… well you listen and you…show someone they are important,” Horror said, then looked at Nightmare.
“Exactly. You honor them by listening, doing as they ask, and being polite.” He smiled and patted Horror on the back. “You did well, Horror. You did not need my help after all.”
“thank you, mr. night,” Horror said with a smile.
“i respect you! i just like being silly,” Killer giggled.
“That you do, you little imp,” Nightmare huffed.
To that, Killer gasped and folded his arms, “i’m not an imp! i’m a skeleton!”
“Yes, you are. Come along, babybones. Time for breakfast,” Nightmare said as he stood from his bed.
“oh! oh! can you carry me, pleeeeaaase~?” Killer asked, holding his arms up in the traditional ‘pick me up pose’ all children seem to know naturally.
“me too! please!” Cross said, putting his arms up as well.
“Alright,” he said as he used his tendrils to wrap around those two and lifted them off the bed. Killer giggled and squirmed a little before finally settling into the hold. It amused Nightmare as the youngest, Cross, patted the tendril as if it were alive while whispering, “thank you” to the limb. As Cross continued to gently pet the limb, Nightmare turned his attention to Dust and Horror. “What about you two? Do you want to be carried, as well?”
“yes, please,” Horror replied, and Nightmare curled a tendril around him. Horror simply hugged the limb that held him with a content smile.
Dust was hesitant and fiddled with his fingers for a short moment before he softly muttered, “please?”
And with that, Nightmare lifted him off the bed as well. Just as before, there was a flinch at the initial contact, but Dust soon relaxed and was lifted off the bed. He looked down and around himself, interested in the different angle he now had to view everything. 
Nightmare made his way out of his room to theirs to help them pick out what they would wear and get them ready for the day. Keeping Killer and Cross focused was a struggle, but he could after that good sleep. One at a time, he helped them brush their teeth, Cross needing help with the action to make sure he got all of his teeth, and a tendril around Killer kept him in place long enough to complete the task. Once done and dressed, he walked them down the hall.
“what about you, mr. night? you still have your jammies on!” Cross asked.
“That I do. Once you four are being watched by Lyra, I shall change and brush my teeth,” He explained as they continued on their way. This time, they wanted to walk on their own—Killer and Dust on one side, Horror and Cross on the other side of him. Killer and Horror were holding a tendril in one hand and the other’s hand in the other.
Once they reached the kitchen, he found Lyra at the refrigerator going through its contents. She looked up at Nightmare and the others and smiled. “I hope you do not mind. I decided to make meal plans for the week,” she said, closing the refrigerator door.
“I do not mind at all. I will admit, I was so busy with other things that I just decided on meals when it was time to eat,” Nightmare admitted. “Speaking of meals, I have four little baby bones-”
“i’m not a baby! i’m an intrupid,” Killer started.
“Intrepid,” Nightmare corrected.
“intrepid… umm… oh! climber!” Killer announced.
“you are a babybones,” Horror grinned while patting Killer on the head.
“nuh-uh!” Killer rebutted.
“Alright, no more arguing. All four of you are baby bones, adventurous nature or not. Now, if Lyra is alright with it, I will leave you four in her care as I get myself ready for the day,” Nightmare declared.
“okay, mr. night!” Cross said before hugging Nightmare around the legs.
“I think that sounds like a wonderful idea. I will have them help with breakfast, and when you get back, we will enjoy a meal together,” Lyra smiled.
It had been long enough that Dust could now eat most of what was given to him without making him sick. And with them helping, that should keep Killer out of trouble and Horror entertained enough not to prank the others. Content they were in good hands, Nightmare started to turn to leave when he felt someone holding one of his tendrils.
Looking down, he saw Dust holding the limb in question. He was near tears as he looked up at Nightmare with a pleading look that said what his voice was failing to say. Dust wanted to come with. When he was alone with the boys, Dust stayed close whenever Nightmare was home. He usually did not initiate physical contact beyond holding a tendril like now, but he did accept it when offered. At this moment, when the others were going over to Lyra to learn what she had planned for breakfast and how they could help, Nightmare considered Dust may have become “clingy.”
What was he to do…
Nightmare will not admit it, but after his troubles as a small child at the hands of adults… he had a soft spot for them. Such young children should be his brother's concern. And yet, Nightmare just had a hard time hurting, emotionally or physically, children. It just felt like bullying.
He just… didn’t like bullying of children…
That dislike only seemed to get stronger the older he got.
But this wouldn’t be bullying… it would be telling Dust he had to wait with the others.
And yet…
He was getting soft…
Those sad eyelights, tears in the corner of his sockets, as the child silently pleaded…
“Dust,” Lyra said as she walked over and knelt down. “Mr. Night just needs to get dressed and cleaned up like you did.”
Dust looked down at the floor and nodded; he understood, but… Nightmare was the first adult to show him kindness and love. After all the anger and hate he had experienced, Dust seemed scared to be away from Nightmare. He felt safe when Nightmare was around and wanted the guardian who was protecting him from “The Doctor” to stay nearby.
“Lyra, I,” Nightmare started, but Lyra shook her head.
“Dust, I have an idea. Can you help me? Nightmare is going to be very hungry by the time he is done, and I do not think I and the other three could make enough food for him without your help,” Lyra said as she held her hand out to him.
“Hmmm, I am feeling rather peckish right now,” Nightmare said thoughtfully.
“I am sure you will be ravenous by the time you return,” Lyra grinned.
“i thought you didn’t hafta eat since you eat emotions!” Killer blurted out. He then gasped, “what about all the times you didn’t eat with us? Was that because… because you didn’t make enough for all of us and you?”
“Well… I require emotions more than food, but I also enjoy food,” Nightmare explained.
“you really need my help?” Dust asked in a whisper to Lyra.
“I do,” She whispered back. “So, will you help us?”
Dust looked up at Nightmare and then back at her with a nod. With that, she extended her hand, and he placed his hand in hers. She then stood and guided him over to the others. Dust looked back momentarily but then focused on where she was guiding him. With the group distracted with breakfast plans, Nightmare turned and left the room to prepare for the day.
He could get used to this…

Promotional for Tate's company in my interp of A Better World AU.
Tumblr media
FULL TEXT BENEATH THE CUT‼️‼️
God, I love exploring what he can do if he hadn't suffered through his father abandoning them and then YEARS of caretaker burnout as he tried in vain to heal his dad. What if he hadn't learned to fear his intellect and skill. What if Appalachia hadn't been cut out of him by being raised in the Bay Area. What if his abilities and cultural identity were both nurtured and encouraged by loving parents and a strong educational support system. What then. 👁️
I think he definitely still has his issues, because public figures often do lol. Fame causes so many problems. But fuck if I don't wanna let this lil scruffy genius out of his mental cage of repression, burnout, and depression. I think he's wild, enthusiastic, and has so much heart and spirit underneath all those layers of bullshit. 30 years of suffering and he is in his 30s, the divergence of the AU puts him on a radically different path from childhood and that makes him a TOTALLY new person.
On the highest peaks in the world, the strongest tethers aren't your rope, but the emotional ties which unite your climbing team and keep you connected to those waiting for you back home. Whether it's by blood or by choice, Tater Higgs McGucket understands the importance of family. Son of revolutionary inventor and co-founder of the Institute of Oddology Fiddleford Hadron McGucket, Tate describes his father as his closest friend, collaborator, and mentor. In collaboration with family friend and other co-founder of the Institute Stanford ("Ford") Pines, the three first designed their renowned supplemental oxygen delivery system after an expedition studying anomalies in the Himalayas.
"Our investigation took us to Camp 1 of Manaslu," Tate described in an exclusive interview with Mountaineering Monthly last week, "And I was shocked by the amount of traffic. This was some of the roughest terrain on the planet, but we saw more people out there than on some of my hiking trips back home in Oregon. . . Ford was our interpreter, and after talking with the locals, we realized that there were all these companies selling tickets to the top — with sherpas puttin' themselves on the line just to ferry tourists to the summit."
The influx of inexperienced climbers has had disastrous consequences, as Tate witnessed firsthand. "A lot of these people, they're physically and mentally capable of makin' that kinda climb, but maybe they don't follow best practice. You can summit without any oxygen, if ya stop and acclimatize along the way. But that takes a while, so it can be really temptin' to ignore your body and throw an oxygen bandaid at the problem. But then you're puttin' yourself in an emergency situation if it fails. While we were there, one of those climbers ran out, and a sherpa had to run more oxygen up there. I told him there was a storm a-comin', but he went up anyway. And we ended up losin' 'em both."
Tate's growing twang was underscored by a nervous bouncing of his leg, and he took a moment to collect himself before resuming the interview.
"Dad and I had a look at these open circuit breathing apparatuses. While they were reliable, we saw they were plum wasteful. Knew we could make somethin' better. There's a growin' culture of risk-takin' 'round them mountains. And maybe we cain't stop the industry that's causin' these problems, but we can at least make it safer for them climbers. 'Cuz at the end of the day, regardless of what ya think about these people? With an accident like that, there’s people left behind that're a-hurtin' somethin' fierce. Partners, friends, kids without parents. I mean, just the thought of losin' my dad like that is enough to break my heart — but that's reality, for both the families of that climber and the sherpa who died tryin' to save him. . . Naw, I reckon we can do better."
That was how the youngest McGucket, who had become a household name in the 1990s for his work in designing personal computers with his father's company, first ventured into the world of alpinism. But what he hadn't expected was to fall in love during the process.
"I always needed nature," he explained, "I get overstimulated awfully easy, and so I go out there to clear my head. Been hikin' and fishin' since I was a kid. . . And so, after workin' with climbers to test this equipment — I saw a lot of them eight-thousanders up close, right? And one day, I just knew I had to see it from the top."
But having become familiar with the dangers involved, Tate knew that preparing himself for such a climb would be no easy task.
Luckily, he found a trainer in Ford's twin brother, Stanley Pines.
“Stanley is a stand-up guy. Real old school. Throws a hell of a punch, catches a hell of a catfish.” Tate said of his mentor, “He’s a fighter. So I knew I needed him, because all it takes is one slip up or act of god for these expeditions to turn life-or-death. And he’s been great. Neither of us knew much about rock climbin’ or mountaineering before all this. But we’ve learned together. And having summited a few eight-thousanders now, I can tell ya, I wouldn’t be here without his help.”
Also aiding in his expeditions were his prototype real-time weather and vital monitoring systems, which have since become standard issue in all McGucket brand protective wear. But Tate is most proud of his high-frequency beacon system, which allows climbers to communicate with their partners and first responders — even from inside perilous crevasses.
"The danger of avalanche or serac collapse is real. There are times when your life just ain’t in your own hands. Our systems allow climbers to communicate when they’re entering or exiting a perilous area, and can send out an SOS. They’re also constantly pinging, so in the event somethin’ does happen, they’ll help your climbing partners or first responders find you.”
But high altitudes aren’t the only place you’ll find the twin peaks of McGucket Mountaineering. Tate’s inventions have seen heavy use by first responders of all stripes, from firefighters to wilderness search and rescue — and he has recently signed a contract to manufacture respirators for medical use.
"At the end of the day, it’s all about making it home safely.” Tate concluded, “You gotta prioritize what matters most. You can do incredible things in this world, but none of it matters if you can’t share them with the people who love you.”

I think i should make a hermitcraft camp au
AS A PERSON WHO HAS NEVER BEEN TO A CAMP, IT WILL BE INFLUENCED BY MY BUNK'D OBSESSION WHEN I WAS like 9, CAMP CAMP, AND MY OWN INSANITY ALONE!
Everyone will be like 14-17 and it will be VERY Found Family!!!! U can take the hermits being family to eachother from my COLD DEAD HANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Xisuma is the Volunteer camp counselor, His parents said it'd be good to be out in nature and would be good for him!! Real Life Experience!! and they dragged him into the role. He did not want to deal with kids(elementary schoolers can be mean...) but he was pleasantly surprised to find people more his age(That being 15 at the time) He took to it well but he is slowly going insane, do not mistake that.
The camp itself is just, alittle illegal, like a camp counselor started at 15 and i don't think he should of been without adult supervision but whatever!
by the second year of camp most of the hermits had already joined the camp! I have few ideas but here's some
Joe actually did want to go to the camp! He wanted to be a camp counselor but didn't really get the opportunity to sign up so now he helps out Xisuma whenever he can! A quarter threw the first year He dragged Cleo out of the new arrivals bus and introduced her to their little friend group! Cleo really didn't wanna be there but she also really didn't like going through the summer without Joe, so now she's here. in the wilderness :]
Did i mention that the camp is a summer camp, cause!!!
S U M M E R!!
ya.
Bdubs was super enthusiastic about the nature part, he wanted to look at cool moss!!!!(me too, me too) and then forgot about the activities part of camp and for a solid month Etho had to drag him out of bed just to do something other then sleep. They'd find him sleeping in trees. I think he'd be an amazing tree climber. He'd only wake up for the forest related activities and has skipped every single swimming activity since he got there. surprisingly it's a 50/50 on if he shows up to a craft activity. one time they had a special animal-care activity and when Etho mentioned the horses the people had brought ONCE and bdubs jumped up and sprinted to them. He did not leave those horses side until they left and after that they got a stable in the camp and bdubs and etho take cake of the horses everyday together! I like them :)
He and Etho share a bunk!!!! They're in the same cabin and after the horse thing they made a little shrine and their other cabin mates... are scared.
Mumbo joined at the same time as Cleo(On the same arrival bus and everything) and was very much the youngest(like just turned 14? maybe) He was the bbabbbyyy... and also exploded something on his first day! :D
Tango, Impulse, and Zed disappeared one night and came back the next day properly unhinged and wouldn't tell a single soul what they'd been up to but after that they're seen together more then not Lol
And the next year they came back speaking of Impulses friend Skizz who they were trying to convince the parents of to send them to camp aswell! It did not work until the 3rd year! Jump for joy, they did!
Grian joined, not wanting to be there at all, having a terrible time and then well
He caused Chaos, left for a week, then came back worse and decided he'd rather be there, super concerning to the others but he didn't speak a peep about it and then went back to causing(now slightly less destructive) chaos! He and Mumbo become extremely good friends, they bribed mumbo's bunk-mate to switch cabins with grian and now they're bunk-mates! it caused confusion for a week and then became the new normal! lol. I think he'd have a digital camera and he'd take pictures of the others, but also birds, so many birds. he'd rush to take a picture everytime he saw a duck, which was everyday, because the camp was RIGHT NEXT TO A RIVER!!! ya.
He would take care of the very few chicken's, and he got the others to help make the coop better because parts of it were rusting and breaking and he was scared that the chickens were gonna get hurt.
I think he'd be a only new arrival for the rest of that summer(so like he arrived like, 2 months into the second summer? how long is summer again? IDK) With hermits that join in season 5 probably arriving during the first month of summer? lets say? ya.
The 3rd summer had two new arrivals which was Pearl and Gem!! They arrived on the same bus and definitely had known eachother beforehand(aka Pearl went "I'm going to this camp next summer, u should come too :3" and Gem said "well okay i guess")
I think Grian and Pearl are siblings(you couldn't take that headcanon away if u tried LOL) and Pearl arriving was wweeirdddd cause grian had missed them arriving and then everytime he saw pearl he did a double take like 'did, did I just see who i thought I saw??????'
aka Grian did NOT know their Parents were sending Pearl to this Camp aswell teehe
I think Joel would arrive and be tackled by Grian, they knooww eachootherr aswell!!! yiippeee, I also think Joel and Etho should know eachother aswell, like they'd been to the same school and stuff lol.
Skizz Arrives and Impulse promptly gives him the biggest hug because He missed his best friend!!!!!!! it's been months!!!! they're dramatic about it.
I really have no other idea's, i wish i did!!!!
either way!! i think they have a camp group chat that is constantly getting chattered in even when it isn't summer lolsie
this was for fun, maybe i'll write more info i've thought about for this au, down again at some point, but ya!!! Fun!!! Yiippeee

Decided to make a post covering all the other clan’s clerics.
Tumblr media
In Oakclan we have the infamous, Mousefoot! He’s the oldest cleric in the forest currently at 119 moons as of moon 11. He was born in Oakclan but has roots from Duskclan by way of his father. He’s also Shadowdive’s great paternal uncle, though they aren’t particularly close as outside of immediate family (parents and siblings) most cats aren’t more bonded with family clan mates than non family clan mates. Still it’s interesting to see the resemblance. Being the eldest cleric, many cats would expect him to retire soon but hes tried being an elder and always comes back within a few days. He just enjoys being a cleric too much, plus with how often Fogdapple is gone and Butterflygaze being unsuited for patient care, it’s best that he stays lead cleric. While he’s never been as innovative as other clerics of the clan, he’s so experienced that even doing things ‘the old way’ he has the lowest patient mortality. He’s a strange, thoughtful cat who’s also a great healer.
Tumblr media
Next we have Fogdapple! As a former kittypet she knows a lot of medical terms and procedures that clan born cats don’t. She’s constantly coming up with new ways to perform medical care, she pioneered suturing in the clans as well as casts made from a clay mud mix over stick splints. While she might claim to get these ideas from Starclan or just her own ingenuity, that’d be a fat lie, her brother is owned by a local vet clinic and tells her all the stuff he hears and sees. It’s half a days walk to visit him, she’ll take a few days to do so and just say she’s out ‘communing with Starclan’. Both Mousefoot and the previous leader have their doubts about her but Archstar thinks as long as she keeps the charade up and keeps improving the clan’s medical care it doesn’t matter. She’s competitive, grumpy, and a good climber. She’s 78 moons as of moon 11.
Tumblr media
Next is Butterflygaze, he’s the youngest cleric in the clan at 22 moons and the most neurotic. He’s paranoid about everything and constantly cleanses the cleric’s den, he suffers from seizures after a head injury as a warrior apprentice. After the concussion and onset of seizures, his personality drastically changed, he was very anxious and did compulsive behaviors like over grooming and plucking his whiskers. He snapped at his loved ones and would refuse to eat bc he thought he was being poisoned, no one knew how to help him. Many cats worried he’d hurt himself if he didn’t get treatment soon. It was actually Fogdapple who managed to figure out how to best help him, she started him on some really potent calming herbs and worked with the mediators for his therapy. It took a while for him to trust her but once he was more regulated he decided to be a cleric, specifically her apprentice. Even now that he’s an adult, he basically operates as her assistant. He’s still anxious and compulsive but it’s easier for him to ease himself back from an attack. He’s also very good at repetitive motions/tasks, so he makes most of the clans herbal concoctions. For the most part he keeps to himself, eating alone and going days without speaking. However the clan is fine with his antisocial tendencies, as he’s actually happy now that he has his routine and can be alone. He’s careful, gloomy, and a good healer. (It’s hard to tell in this pic but he’s very scrawny and has some scaring from his over grooming)
Tumblr media
Finally for Oakclan we have Scarletpaw, the only apprentice. He was found at ~5 moons old in a trap by a patrol. He wasn’t crying, wasn’t acting injured, he was just staring up at the sky. When they found him they had to amputate his leg to retrieve him. He was given a place in the clan and soon learned he’s mute, so he began learning clan sign. After he was able to communicate he decided to be a cleric. He’s apprenticed to Mousefoot and is 6 moons old. He’s got a super high pain tolerance and always has dreamy expression on his face. He’s not very social but he’s not unfriendly, he’s good with kits and the more nervous cats. He’s quiet, a day dreamer, and quick to help.
Tumblr media
Moving onto Honeyclan we have their lead cleric Rosedrift. A former loner this molly is 100 moons old and a bit of a hippy. Surprisingly childish despite her title, she enjoys teasing others and likes puzzles and games. She’s very beautiful and knows it, uses it to get out of shit she doesn’t wanna do even though she’s technically in charge. A lot of cats are nervous that she’s technically their spiritual leader as she is not very connected with Starclan and it’s for a good reason. She’s a huge gossip! This girl can’t keep her yap shut to save her life, starclan can’t trust her with shiiiiiit bc she’s not gonna keep any secret ever. Even her own! Everyone is uncomfortable updated on how her bowel movements were or if she tripped and fell into the mud etc. but it’s ok bc we love her and she’s good at her herbal work and great for moral and cheering cats up. Also the most likely to give you cat nip for recreational use, does not partake bc it makes her sneeze. She’s childish, flamboyant, and a beloved kit sitter.
Tumblr media
Next we have Fernstorm, we’ve met them once at Lynxpaw’s first after gathering. They’ve been assisting in her training twice a moon for the past few moons. This cat is probably the most normal cleric we will ever meet, everyone else has these big personalities, weird quirks, and super sad back stories and this gib is just a lil guy. They’re as mellow as can be, aside from being a reliable cleric and decent Starclan communicator they’re really only known for two things. 1. They’re always zooted off their stash of cat nip from their personal secret garden that no one can find (hint it’s actually just over the border and in Capri’s territory but they have a deal worked out and she gets her cut). And 2. They have the worst skin allergies, specifically flea contact dermatitis, they have to take medicated baths of salt, lavender, chamomile, and rose hips almost weekly to combat this issue. They also use balms from honeycomb and herbs to help repel fleas and shredded cedar bark woven into their nest. It’s bad, as soon as one bites them they’re breaking out in scabs and hives, luckily it’s not fatal but it’s very painful. (Keep your pets on flea/heartworm prevention year round yall even the indoor babies). They’re 68 moons old, they’re loyal, patient, and a good speaker. (You can see he has some scabby patches here 🥺)
Tumblr media
Finally we have Junipersong, we’ll meet this grumpy girl in the next moon. She’s a recent graduate at 12 moons old and is not happy about her role. She’s Rookstar’s daughter and really wanted to be a code keeper. She enjoys arguing debating, she likes to be out of camp, and she’s a good fighter. All the makings of a great warrior, but when she was young she showed a remarkable connection with Starclan, she retained her ability to speak with Starclan cats directly even into her adulthood. And while her parents and clan didn’t technically pressure her into being a cleric, she still felt forced when she got apprenticed. Everyone was relieved when she did as the other clerics they have aren’t really spiritual and the clan needs to feel that that bond is secure. Or else political unrest can happen. So she became a cleric, even though she’s not friendly and tends to speak without thinking. She’s even pissed that she was given such a flowery name, she wanted to be Juniperclaw or Juniperstrike. She’s not particularly close with anyone but enjoys bumping heads with Fogdapple (the feeling is not mutual) and finds Darkfold to be good company(she has a crush). Despite her sour attitude and more aggressive tendencies, she is a good clan mate and tries to give decent bedside manner (by not talking and getting them healed quickly so they get outta her den). She still sleeps in the leader’s den with her parents half the time, she doesn’t care who judges. She’s shameless, arrogant, and has ghost sense.
Tumblr media
Finally, we have the two newest apprentices of Duskclan, on the left is Crowpaw and the right is Frostwhisper, we’ll meet them in the next moon. (I’m not gonna cover Darkfold again)
Crowpaw is Tallowpaw’s littermate and has been Darkfold’s apprentice since Mallowstripe’s departure. They’re a petite gib who’s very medically gifted, they’re gonna be a great healer but have less of a connection with Starclan than most clerics. However due to the need for clerical help in their clan they can get away with shirking some of that onto Frost or Darkfold. Their mom is a recent Duskclan addition, she was a loner who tried to leave her kits with the clan bc she couldn’t care for them and herself, however Jaggedstar offered to let her join as well so she could stay with her litter. Her mom (Thrushpelt) is a camp keeper now. Her full name will be Crowflight. Crowpaw is 9 moons old, sneaky, lonesome, and interested in herbs.
Frostwhisper is also a gib, they were a warrior until moon 11 ish when they had a strange dream that Darkfold interpreted as they should be a cleric. They’re more spiritually gifted than Crowpaw, but less medically adept. Between the two they make one fully functioning cleric ✨✨✨ Frost is a clan born cat and a second cousin of Jaggedstar, their parents are Hawklily(M) and Redstorm (F). Their mom was born in Oakclan but one parent was originally Duskclan, they returned to Duskclan as an apprentice and became a warrior. Their dad is originally from Honeyclan, parents were loners and dropped him off there. He immigrated to Duskclan as a care taker and fell in love with Redstorm. They’re 34 moons old, sincere, strict, and have an innate connection to Starclan.
They’re both fairly similar, very calm stoic cats that take their job seriously. I imagine the main difference between them would be if they make a mistake Frost would own up to it right away even if it’s minor, while Crow may try to either cover up their mistake or wait until someone notices to fess up. We’ll see if they grow out of that trait.

Any possible headcanons about the Cullens' human relatives? Looks, names, personalities, futures, etc. I kinda imagine Rosalie has French-English ancestry (her name is a possible hint at that) while her mother's family came from old money in France instead of that odd social climber backstory we got...
I had always assumed Esme had some French roots at least on one side of her family. 'Esme' just reads as a very French name to me, although more likely spelled Esmée. Maybe she's simplified it over the years? I wondered if maybe one side of her family was French-Canadian and immigrated to Ohio.
I still love the idea that one of Rosalie's little brothers was named Edward. It would just feed into her complicated relationship with 'our' Edward. I imagine he was called maybe Ted or Teddy (which can be a nickname for Edward as well as Theodore) or something but just Rosalie resenting Edward for trying to be her new brother AND having the same name as Teddy, rude! But it also weirdly endears him to her in a way she'd never admit out loud. And the few times she's slipped up and called him 'Teddy' he didn't call her out on it (at least in the moment, possibly later during a fight).
I've also always liked the idea that Rosalie's youngest brother is still alive; as we get further and further away from 1915 that becomes less likely, but if he were several years younger than Rose then he could be 100 or so and still alive. Love the idea that she found out which nursing home he's in and she visits him sometimes and he tells the staff, "she's my sister" and they're all like "sure, Mr. Hale," and think he's senile but he's right.
I feel like Carlisle inherited his height from his father (as well as stubbornness), but otherwise he's much more like his mother, in looks and personality. His height in his time period would be unusual but I can see his father commanding respect with, not only as a pastor but as a literally towering figure in the local community. I think Pastor Cullen was probably always A Lot but after the death of his wife he got Worse. She was a calming, moderating influence on him. And then she died and he was all like "well God saw that she was distracting me for my Work and so He called her home" or whatever.
I think Edward's mom probably had some lowkey latent psychic ability as well and that was part of why she knew to ask Carlisle to do 'what others cannot do,' for Edward. I don't know that she 100% knew/understood, but she had some idea. I also get Irish Catholic vibes from her, but that could be because my grandmother was Irish Catholic.
I don't really have much in the way of headcanons for anyone else's families, other than Emmett's being sort of like the Weasleys in that they were a big family, didn't have a lot of money, but had a lot of love and laughter. And mostly boys. Jasper's family is a big ??? but in the personal correspondence on the Twilight Lexicon SM mentioned he had a younger sister, but she didn't make it into the guide. Alice's family gets the most description in the guide although weirdly no names? They were invented for one of the short films. Found it funny they named Alice's mom "Lillian" when that was Rosalie's middle name. Like if I had to bet, I'd have guessed that was Rose's mom's name rather than Alice's mom.

Funny idea:
Naph ends up having a bigger build like Jayce but is an Omega.
Vanco youngest is a carbon copy of Silco but is an Alpha.
Even funnier:
Baby Vanco ends up falling for his rival who is a big omega
Well at least both Viktor and Silco get what they wanted in the end - Viktor gets a child that got Jayce's overall build and is more a mix of the two of them instead of just being his mini-me and Silco gets what he considers is the fair trade-off for Claggor taking so much after Vander. Neither of them cared that much about designations when they were thinking about these wants and honestly still probably don't put much weight on which way their child presents even once it does happen (neither of them care that much about what is/isn't considered conventionally attractive).
I'm assuming this is a verse where Viktor isn't one of the Vanco brood if the two of them are getting together. Honestly the only parent involved that it's probably causing active annoyance/grief for is Silco. Jayce married a Zaunite so he's not super bothered by his kid doing it as well, if Vanco are still together they're probably a little bit more legitimate in how they operate so while seen as social climbers by Piltover are only seen as dangerous because of that not because of recent acts of terrorism. But Naph would be raised mostly in Piltover so he's a Topsider to Silco and Silco dealt with enough Topsider-relationship drama with Vi and Caitlyn he doesn't want it with his youngest as well.

Duskgleam, he/him, adventurous and caring, beloved kitsitter and good climber. Duskgleam doesn’t have much ambition to one day seize the throne for himself but he’d be happy to support his sister if she goes for it. Son of Shinestar and Ryedapple.
Thistlefeather, she/her, insecure and a bit mean, good swimmer and good speaker. Daughter of Mousethistle and Silvermouse. She takes out her insecurities on others especially her littermates. She’s one of the youngest warriors and her littermates have not yet become warriors.
Wolfspots, he/him, childish and fierce, great kitsitter. Son of Russetstripe and Heartmimic. He’s only 11 moons old and has already gotten his warrior name. He’s proven himself a fierce fighter and a great warrior who is capable of protecting the kingdom from threats. Right now he mostly wants to have fun and enjoy life. He’s very close with his brother Wolverinetuft.
Wolverinetuft, he/him, fierce and troublesome, excellent teacher. Son if Russetstripe and Hearmimic, Wolverinetuft and Wolfspots are very close and has gotten into trouble together a lot, often on Wolverine’s ideas, and became warriors together. Both wear crow feathers in their tails from a pair of crow brothers who they befriended as older kits.
Daisypaw, she/her, fierce and quick-witted, interested in kingdom history. Daughter of Mousethistle and Silvermouse. Daisypaw may have missed quite a bit of training to instead learn about the kingdom’s history.

For those of you that are new, let me introduce our four cats (in case you were under the impression the new cat was our only cat).
Teapot of Earl Grey - she came with the house when we bought it 11 years ago and is now a distinguished lady of 17 years. She doesn't suffer fools (aka cats younger than her) willingly. She has the LOUDEST purr out of all our cats and has a little piece of fur on her head that grows in the wrong direction and is like a mini mohawk. She has a special diet and was dumped in a nearby park which is close to where we live*. When we took her to the vets we found she was microchipped, but all the mobile numbers were no longer in service. So she became ours (and we had two cats when we moved in).
Beauty Spot Socks - she is a petite wee six year old who loves 'helping' make beds, doesn't meow or purr very much but will growl when she believes it is necessary, usually when another cat enters her personal space. She loves sleeping under the covers regardless of the season. She also will go on her hind legs for treats and pats. She's cute and she knows it.
Te Ka - named by the same child who named Teapot, this 5 year old male cat is named after the lava demon in the Moana movie. He can be very affectionate if there is food involved, or if his human is away. Otherwise he embodies the lava demon namesake and I affectionately call him 'shit head'. He routinely catches rats and brings them inside. He sleeps ON his human at night, and sulks when he goes away.
Whiskey on Ice - the newest and youngest addition. He turned up 4 weeks ago, and we started feeding him. He likes humans, meows A LOT and is now 'ours' as much as a cat can be owned when they sometimes seem to have disdain for the entire human race. He likes warm cozy spaces and chin scratches and is better behaved than any of our other cats when it comes to flea and worm treatments. His current life challenge is figuring out the cat door.
We used to have three other cats, Druss the Legend, Shadow the Hunter (leaves and the neighbours' gardening gloves were what she regularly caught...) and Spot the Climber. They have all passed over the rainbow bridge now.
*We know it wasn't the previous owners of the house, as we bought my childhood home from my father, who called her 'Puss'.

KATE IS A GOOD SINGER. false. doesn’t mean she isn’t guilty of singing in the shower or along to her favourite songs on the radio.
KATE SLEEPS UNTIL NOON. false. this girl is an early birdie, always has been, probably always will be. only time she sleeps in is when she’s sick, or going through a depressive episode.
KATE LIKES TO EAT STRAIGHT COFFEE BEANS. true. she found a cafe in her neighborhood in brooklyn that sells chocolate covered espresso beans by the bag, and she still gets them shipped to her place in norman when she moves back to oklahoma.
KATE HAS AN INTENSE FEAR OF HEIGHTS. false. she was a tree and rooftop climber when she was a child, just to get the perfect view of distant cloud formations, and would frequently give poor cathy a heart attack when doing so.
KATE NEARLY DROWNED IN A RIVER AS A CHILD. true. though it wasn’t a river so much as sahoma lake, on a trip with her grandparents when she was seven. she hasn’t swam much or at all since then.
KATE KNOCKS PEOPLE OVER BY HUGGING THEM. true. kate gives the fiercest hugs, throwing her whole body and soul into it.
KATE HATES BEING ALONE. half-true. when she needs to buckle down and focus on work, kate enjoys the solitude. when she runs out of things to do and it turns into just her and her thoughts, it can rapidly turn… unenjoyable.
KATE HAS CHRONIC NIGHTMARES. true. they have gotten better over time, but there are still moments where they creep up on her and won’t leave her alone for weeks on end. she’s been prescribed sleeping pills before, but she despised the feeling of heaviness they gave her, paired with headaches, dizziness, and the fact that she felt like they made her dreams even worse.
KATE STEALS OTHER PEOPLE’S CLOTHES. true. she had a few of jeb’s sweaters in her closet in college, one of addy’s too that was too short in the arms ( but addy also had one of hers that was comically too long ) - she got rid of it all before moving to new york. she’s also started sleeping in some of tyler’s shirts, especially when he’s gone chasing and she’s still in norman due to school or work. she jokes it’s the only place she’ll be seen in wranglers merch,
KATE IS AN OLDEST CHILD. true. she’s the only child, so that makes her the oldest, middle, and youngest. 🤭

May 7th, 1920, Newcrest, England
Tumblr media
“I can’t believe you’re 20,” Rebecca exclaimed over breakfast, smiling. “My baby’s all grown up.”
Giselle blushed. “Mama.”
She waved her hand. “Let me baby my youngest child.”
“Has any mail from Byron arrived?”
“Yes, actually. An early post from this morning. He says he’s sad that he missed your birthday, but apparently, he’s been invited to spend the summer at his friends’ family manor.”
“My brother the social climber,” she muttered. “Are those the oil socialites he befriended in the war?”
“I believe so.” She frowned. “I hope they don’t think he’s using them.”
“Why would you think that?”
“He’s not rich, and nor is he part of that community. He’s told us countless times that he sticks out like a sore thumb.”
“Well, that’s his choice.”
Rebecca frowned. “Perhaps. I wonder if they know about his inheritance.”
“Likely not. Byron ran away from his responsibilities.” Giselle wouldn’t deny that she wasn’t jealous of her brother, able to run away to another continent, but she also thought he was a coward, abandoning his family in the face of death and loss. He couldn’t escape fate, even if he was an ocean away. 
“Giselle. Don’t be bitter.”
“You’re not?”
She sighed. “All I can hope is that he realizes that he belongs with his family at home.”
Like that’ll ever happen, Giselle thought.
Tumblr media
“Open your eyes,” Francesca whispered.
Giselle opened her eyes to her girlfriend holding three train tickets to London and a big smile on her face. 
“Francesca!”
She giggled. “I thought it was time for a new chapter in our lives.”
“There’s three.”
She nodded. “One for you, one for me, and… one for your mother.”
Giselle swelled with emotion. “Even for my mother?”
“Yes. I think we all need a new start.”
“What about us?”
“We can make it work.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Mama?” Giselle asked after dinner.
“Yes, my darling birthday girl?”
“You know how Francesca and I have discussed moving to London?”
Rebecca nodded slowly. 
Giselle handed the third ticket to her mother. “We’ve included one for you too.” 
Her eyes widened. “...Oh my.”
“We want to come with us, Mrs. Walsh,” Francesca said, smiling. “A fresh start would be welcome.”
“I don’t want to leave you alone, Mama.” 
Rebecca swallowed, staring at the ticket in hand. Her daughter and friend’s act was touching, even though she knew they both wanted a fresh start without her. Giselle would have to eventually leave the nest. It was a new decade, and her generation was different from her own. They were independent, and societal expectations didn’t hold them down. “...Oh, you girls are the kindest women I’ve known. But… I need to say here. Byron is technically the master of the house, and when he comes back, I bet he’ll want somewhere clean to stay before he inherits the dukedom. You’re both ready for a new chapter in your life, and I wish you the very best.”
Her daughter nodded. She knew better than to crush her mother’s fantasy. It would be years before Byron returned home. 
Tumblr media
“Oh, Mama, I’m going to miss you so much!” She exclaimed, embracing her mother tightly. 
She smiled. “I’ll even finally install a telephone so you two can phone me from London.”
Francesca nodded, equally delighted. “I’ll make sure Aunt Rosamond visits as often as she can for company.”
“We’ll be the two old hags of Newcrest,” Rebecca muttered, chuckling. “While you two head off to London.”

since you are staring to like fender do you have any headcanons for him 👀
SO, the problem I'm having is I actually know very little about Hungary, so often with my headcanons, I try to also make them accurate for someone who is actually that nationality. Unfortunately I don't know anyone from Hungary to ask either so unlike Gromsko, mine are gonna probably have some inaccuracies and I do apologize and they may seem a lil standard but, I'll give em a shot bc there is so lil content abt Fender anyway!
Tumblr media
Fender Headcanons
Tags: none actually! these are just general headcanons that could be applied anywhere :)
Let's start with one that's basically canon you can't convince me otherwise; His call sign is Fender, the guitar brand, he has multiple lines referring to music ("Now we're jamming!" "Shows over!" "Get the fuck off my stage..." "Very rock and roll 🤔" "Let's get the band together!" etc.), and his voice actor can sing really well. He is definitely a musician of some sort and strikes me as a metal head for sure. Some of his favorites are System of a Down, Slayer, and Avenged Sevenfold.
His bio states he was father was a CIA op and mother was a "guerrilla revolutionary" in communist Budapest. Communism ended in Hungary around end of 1989, so at the youngest, he's 33 since the game takes place at the end of 2022.
With his father dying when he was young, he's definitely a mama's boy. However he also give off eldest sibling energy so I think he has a few younger half-siblings. He also has daddy issues, sorry that's canon.
He is definitely a gym rat with that gym skin he got April. But I want to combine it with the Mtn. Dew skin because he's gremlin coded and yeah no, he's combined his pre-workout powder with Mtn Dew and swears he saw God while using a stair climber.
He's had his tooth gap since his adult teeth first started coming in, but he absolutely despised the dentist. Being his mom's first child, and just generally not growing up in the most wealthy household, he managed to convince her he didn't really need an orthodontist or braces. Hence, his cute lil smile he has now.
In general, he's very confident in his abilities, a little abrasive but charming in his own way. He will always remain friendly at first until wronged. He got bullied as a kid so he does have his guard up and it takes a bit to truly gain his trust. He also is a bit hot headed and will stay angry for quite a few hours.
He will often use the fact he's half American as a joke... a lot. He says that's why he loves Mtn Dew, why he learned English so early in his life despite his dad already being gone, and that he definitely got his love for explosives from his dad's side of the family.
He's not super patriotic though for Hungary. He likes his home country but doesn't quite like speaking Hungarian around the others in Kortac knowing they won't understand him. Only rarely will they catch him talking under his breath to himself or when he's startled in battle (example, "VIGYÁZZ!").
He will however, cuss someone out in his language. There are no holes barred there, he will say some the most jaw dropping shit if they knew what he was saying. This often leads to him laughing mid-cuss out as they look to him incredibly confused.

The Main Cast's Families
In this post, I'll be explaining the families of the G6 main cast, as well as discussing the family dynamics.
Firefly is adopted and has two moms, Cloud Climber and Paradise. All three are pegasi, and they live in a tiny village called Gossamer on one of the Butterfly Archipelago's many islands. While they no longer live in the same house — Firefly moved out pretty recently — they're still within walking distance from each other. While Firefly has never felt unloved or unwanted, she does wonder what her biological parents are like, or if they're even alive. She has no memories of them, and while the whole situation doesn't bother her that much now, it used to tear her up as a filly. She didn't feel comfortable talking about her feelings with her moms, so she tried looking for information on her parents on her own, with no results. Still, she considers herself lucky: not every foal gets adopted, after all.
Silver Swirl initially lives with her parents in Prismtopia, the capital and largest city of Unicornia. Her father is named Copper Glow, and her mother's name is Silver Rain. She also has an older sister, Silver Glow, who lives in Ponyville. Silver Swirl and Silver Glow were never very close; in truth, Silver Glow was jealous of the attention her "perfect" little sister got. After Silver Swirl botches the ceremony and is sent to Ponyville, she moves in with Silver Glow. It's a bit awkward, to say the least.
Minty was born to a mare named Mistletoe and a stallion named Peppermint Crunch. Mistletoe eventually died, however, and Minty only has a few (treasured) memories of her. Peppermint Crunch remarried, pairing up with a mare named Blossomforth, and the two had a foal and named her Flower Flash. Minty doesn't get along too well with her stepmother and half-sister, and though her father says he wants the whole family to get along, Minty can't help but think that really, her father just wants to put the past — including Minty — behind him and replace it with something new. Minty moved out at a rather young age, and she now lives on the opposite side of Ponyville from her family. She still has a very good relationship with her maternal grandmother, Candy Cane.
Wind Whistler has two little sisters, one of which (Whistle Wishes) is a unicorn. The youngest, Thistle Whistle, is a pegasus. The parents are Windy Wisp (a pegasus) and Moonstone (a unicorn). When they divorced, Windy Wisp took the pegasi daughters with her to her home village of Morpholu in the Butterfly Archipelago, while Moonstone took Whistle Wishes with him to Prismtopia, leaving the house in Ponyville empty. The two sides of the family don't get along and rarely interact. Wind Whistler moved to Ponyville as an adult, since it reminds her of her early foalhood. She still feels like she could've done something to stop her parents' divorce, though she tells herself that this sort of thinking is irrational.
Sweetie Belle's parents are two unicorns who moved out of Unicornia before she was born, and Sweetie Belle now lives in Ponyville, far away from them. She doesn't talk about them much, and her friends don't even know their names.
Bright Eyes lost her father when she was just a filly, but she doesn't really mind. Her mother, Gingerbread, is her closest confidant and is always there for her. Bright Eyes feels like she doesn't need any other family, and she'd rather not have anyone disrupt the perfect balance between her and her mother.
