Might Be A Bit Quiet Around Here For A While - I'm Moving! I Thought I'd Have A Bit More Time For The

Might be a bit quiet around here for a while - I'm moving! I thought I'd have a bit more time for the comic in between packing and cleaning and whatnot, but I've been busier than I expected.

Regular activity here may not pick back up 'til late May, once I've gotten settled in, but we'll see! I'll make an effort to be present in moments of downtime. :)

SOMEONE HELP THEMMMMMMMMMM I’m Manifesting Anything Good To Happen To Them Rn Cause They Deserve It

Moon 4 - Part 2

A collage style comic. Title reads: "Moon 4 - Camosunclan border - afternoon"
the panel below shows a small, grey cat- Longpaw- squeezing through a gap in a fence. On the right side of the panel, a bigger, tortoiseshell cat- Gutetrrat- is waiting for her. Dialogue reads:
Longpaw: "...did she leave? I wouldn’t leave Gutterclan. Unless…”
Gutterrat: “I dunno! Babyleg said she was afraid, but– but she’s young, you know? I don’t wanna press her. It must be overwhelming.”
Longpaw: “Yeah. I know.”

Below the panel, text reads:
"Gutterrat looked at Longpaw, sideways. Of course she did– more than any cat her age had right, to know. Gutterrat shut her eyes, for a moment, against the long afternoon sun. It it was okay, now. The patrol was easy— pleasant. Longpaw’s spirits were— not high, but not so low, the way they could be. The day was warm. Maybe she could even nap, later. She could love this. She could learn to—"
From offscreen, dialogue says "you're trespassing, you know."

Two panels show Ferntail and Gutterrat speaking. Ferntail is a pointed cat with tattered ears. Both he and Gutterrat look tired and battered. 
Gutterrat says: "Ferntail!"
Ferntail says: "And if it isn't little Gutterpaw. Brie! Where've you been?"

From here on, panels run side-by-side. The leftmost panels show the past, on a floral blue background. The righthand panels show the present, in black-and-white.

Left: a less battered, less tired Ferntail says: “You came back.” He and Gutterrat, smiling, butt heads.
Right: Gutterrat, looking away, says: "It’s… complicated. But– it’s good to see you.” Longpaw looks up at her in confusion.

Left: A smiling Gutterrat says: “Of course! I missed that sour frown of yours.”
Right: A frowning, tired Ferntail says: “Complicated. Thought it was only Camosunclan. And is that– I thought you didn’t… want kits.”
Left: A smiling Ferntail says: “And I missed being talked back to.”
Right: Gutterrat says, “My– Longpaw? No! No– my apprentice.” Longpaw looks up at her, frowning. A little broken heart floats over her head.

Left: Gutterrat punches Ferntail in the shoulder, laughing. “I know! That’s the other reason I came by.”
Right: Ferntail, looking upset: "Apprentice? How--"

Left: Ferntail shoves Gutterrat's paw away. “Stars, if I'd talked to my mentor like that– you wanna come out hunting?”
Right: Gutterrat, ears drooping, says: "I. Something... bad happened. At the house, Ferntail. We..."
Left: Gutterrat is smiling, determined. “I thought you’d never ask!”
Right: Ferntail scowls, his ears flat. “Bad? You should have come to me. I could’ve–”

Left: Ferntail and Gutterrat stalk together, side-by-side.
Right: Longpaw and Gutterrat look at each other, frowning. “I know– I know. But I had her. And I didn’t know if your clan would… you said even me, they might not take, and…”

Left: Gutterrat smiles with a mouse caught in her mouth.
Right: A close-up on Ferntail's face, looking sad or ashamed.  “No. Not with a kit. Things are… But then– you joined with Fraserclan? Or–”
Left: Ferntail gives a thumbs up, smiling.
Right: Gutterrat, looking conflicted, says “I– No. I started my own clan. I! I don't know. I thought—”

Left: Gutterrat and Fentail lie in the grass together, relaxed and happy.
Right: A close-up on Ferntail's face- he looks angry.  “What? You can’t just–”

Interrupting both panels, a dialogue box shows the sound effects "crash! rustle rustle"

Left: Ferntail looks sad.  “Ah– dusk patrol. I have to go. But– maybe tomorrow..?”
Right: Ferntail looks upset. “You– I have to go. Brie; don’t tell other cats about this. Not clan cats. Promise me.”
Left: Ferntail and Gutterat stand with heads close together. Gutterrat says: “Yeah! Yeah, of course. I’ll be around. And Ferntail, I…”
Right: A dejected Gutterrat says "“But– Ferntail. I promise. Just– please, I–”

Below both panels, text reads: "But the long, fronded tail for which he was named was vanishing, already, into the trees. Gutterrat stood, for a long moment, all the weight returning. Her own tail drooped, by slow degrees, until it dragged across the ground. Those days– those easy autumn days. They weren’t coming back."

A final panel shows Longpaw, sitting in the foreground, with Gutterrat walking away in the background.
Longpaw says: "Gutterrat? Who was…”
Gutterrat: “Just– someone I used to know. It doesn’t matter, now.” 
Longpaw: “...Yeah. Okay.”

Maybe we should move someplace new / and build time machines to go and get us back / Back before we were brittle

Gutterrat was seen speaking to a Camosunclan cat across the border. Scandalous!

Start / Back / Next

Ferntail, a young warrior of strict Camosunclan, had met Gutterrat across the border before the founding of Gutterclan. Then a loner named Brie, Gutterrat- both personable and lonely- had struck up a rapport with Ferntail.

Ferntail himself- something of a punching bag, as a "Medius" near the bottom of his clan's hierarchy- fell into an easy friendship with Brie, free from the constraints of rank.

He declared himself to be Brie's mentor (though he was scarcely a moon older). The two spent a season "training" together - escaping to the fantasy that Brie might one day join the clan as a full warrior of Camosunclan, and openly live alongside Ferntail.

Some things aren't meant to be.

Moon 5 Part 4

[Previous] [Start] [Next]

Moon 5 Part 4
Moon 5 Part 4
Moon 5 Part 4

Fogfreckle’s body hits the ground hard, rolling halfway down the slope as Moonstar slides down after him, pebbles skidding out from under her paws as she rushes to his side.

“Fogfreckle?” Moonstar’s voice wavers as she reaches him in a spray of stones, hovering a scraped paw gently over his bleeding body as she hesitates. He’s just lying there, chest rising and falling shallowly, as blood oozes from thick punctures along his back that stains his pale fur red. Should she roll him over? What if his bones are broken? He’s not dead, by the grace of StarClan, but she’s no medicine cat – she has no idea how close he is to death or how much worse she’ll make it if she tries to move him.

The circling shadow of the eagle drifts over them with another ear-splitting, screeching cry, and Moonstar’s fear makes the decision for her. She grabs Fogfreckle by the scruff of the neck and begins to haul him farther down the slope. She doesn’t want to injure him more than he already is, but she knows it’ll be worse if they’re caught out here on the open mountainside once the larger predators in the area catch scent of his blood and come to investigate.

Fogfreckle doesn’t make a single nose of pain as she pulls him through the dirt. She drags him as far as a tumbled collection of boulders and stones, squeezing into a space between the rocks that is just big enough for Moonstar to fit her body through and drag Fogfreckle in after her. The space is tight, without a lot of room to move, and Moonstar has to swallow panic and bile as the walls seem to press in around them. 

“This is best,” she says aloud to herself, “foxes or fishers can’t reach us in here. It has to be here.” The self-soothing doesn’t do much to abate her claustrophobia, but Fogfreckle makes a pained noise in response to her voice and all thoughts of herself vacate her mind.

Fogfreckle whimpers as Moonstar licks his wounds clean, flinching as she clears dirt from the punctures with her rough tongue. She doesn’t say anything while she works, but she nearly sags in relief with every flinch and whimper from her brother. He’s okay. He’s okay. He’s alive and he’s okay.

“Stay here,” she says at last when she’s cleaned most of the blood and debris from his fur. It’s still oozing sluggishly from his wounds, bright and wet. “I need to find cobwebs. Do you think you broke anything?”

“I don’t think so,” Fogfreckle murmurs, voice weak and faint with exhaustion. 

“Reckless,” Moonstar murmurs back, licking his forehead once. “Alright. Okay. Stay safe. Please, please, stay safe. I’ll get us help, okay? I’ll find someone to help.”

Moonstar scrambles out from under the claustrophobic press of rocks and pelts back up the mountain, swerving trees and boulders and leaping roots as she climbs higher and higher. Panic and grief strangles her thundering heart, pushing her to run faster and faster until her legs are burning. She reaches a break in the pines, a ledge buffeted by the wind, and yowls at the top of her lungs until her voice runs ragged.

“HELP! SOMEBODY, HELP! PLEASE! HELP!”

Her voice echoes back to her across the mountain, mimicking her fear. When it fades, there is only the sound of the mountain. Wind in her ears, the rustle of leaves in the trees, insects that hum in the sun. A sob escapes her, then a full blown wail, and her body collapses beneath her as the lack of response presses against her.

They are alone. At sunrise, she awoke as the leader of this clan, and at sundown she is so terribly, horribly, awfully alone.

Fun fact ingame Bugclan and Pondclan were called Lowclan and Brindleclam, but that gave me like nothing to work with so i based them on their icons instead. In general I tried to work with what the game gave me as much as I could
