So… How Is You Day?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FIRESTAR!!!

Check out my instagram @larkin_arting for more!

these are my OCs that I’ve been coming up with a story for for a WHILE now but it was nice to spend so long trying to create a visual for them

“Take me home where I belong, I got no other place to go” [Turtle Tail + Gray Wing]

God I love the idea of cats in position of power being decorated with herbs, flowers, etc to show their statues from everyday wear to gatherings.

But the specific intimate aspect of their closest clanmates/kin helping them get ready is what really appeals to me like thinking about

Yellowfang braiding specific flowers and trinkets into Cinderpaws fur before going to the moonstone to gain her medcat name.

Bluestar gifting Redtail some feathers after his promotion to Deputy

Mudfur naively weaving a moth wing into Mothwings fur before giving her name.

And so on

Idk I'm just thinking out loud :p

u guys know me, i love writing warrior cats with a touch of horror :)

ivykit races up to her one morning out of breath, saying: “mommy, mommy, guess what?”

whitewing laughs at her daughters enthusiasm - dovekit is usually the more chattier of the two, and seeing ivykit so excited is a rare occurrence.

“what?” whitewing purrs, bending down to lick behind her daughters ears.

“i made a new friend!” ivykit chirps, ducking from her mothers grooming.

whitewing pauses for a moment, confused a little about her daughters statement - ivykit knows every cat thunderclan by now, as does her sister. after a moment, she guesses that this is probably just an imaginary friend; she never had one herself, but she remembers ferncloud telling her that spiderleg did when he was young. poor ivykit can be so quiet, a little lonesome - but she seems so happy right now that whitewing doesn’t want to burst her bubble.

instead, she purrs: “oh, really? a new friend?”

“mmhmm,” ivykit nods, looking out of the nursery’s entrance. “i told him i wanted to come and introduce you to him, but he was a little shy.”

whitewing chuckles - definitely an imaginary friend. ivykit is only four moons old, so she supposes she’s not too old to have an active imagination - and she seems so happy at the moment, too.

“well, that’s okay,” whitewing says, smiling at her daughter. “where did you meet him?”

“behind the apprentices den,” ivykit tells her, proudly. “i saw him hiding there and went over to ask who he was, but we started talking and he’s pretty funny.”

whitewing twitches her whisker. “well, that’s good. where are his mom and dad? did you ask him if he’s lost?” she asks, humoring ivykit.

ivykit shakes her head. “mama, he’s like, the same age as you! i don’t think he lives with his parents!”

whitewing feels a trickle of discomfort down her spine - she doesn’t know why that detail bothers her, but something about this….friend begins to unsettle her. maybe ivykit is a little too old for imaginary friends, or maybe it’s for a reason that whitewing can’t place yet.

“oh, well,” she starts, not wanting to discourage ivykit when she seems so excited. “an adult, huh? what did…well, what did he look like? what’s his name?”

ivykit frowns. “he didn’t say his name,” she mumbles. “but he talked a little funny. i think it’s because of the stick he had poking out of his throat.”

im gonna be so deadass… I HATE SQUIRRELFLIGHTS NAME. i can’t read anything about her without only imagining a squirrel, any character design for her that i make is too squirrel adjacent BUT if you don’t follow the squirrel name its like ignoring a crucial part. i hate her name so much. it immediately makes me dislike her EVEN THO I HEAR HER CHARACTER IS ACTUALLY GOOD. it’s like a love interest being named “caleb” and you’re immediately like omg some boring ass mf. I don’t want to imagine squirrels when i’m reading about cats.
