[bonefall]

the ShadowClan talk made me look through Brokenstar's BB Tags, and. a) is Lizardstripe still related to Finchflight, if you are keeping Finch-Dawn as a couple (with Dawncloud's age redux)? b) i keep seeing stuff about Snowtuft and killing kits, but i cant find anything actually detailing on that on the blog, and one of the older posts also mentions that Blizzardwing is either his son/grandson AND that Lizardstripe's mother was the kit he couldn't kill. what is all that about, im dying to know.

This is info that's scattered across a bunch of different posts, plus more deets and changes I haven't had a chance to dive into. Snowtuft committed an atrocity which would torment his victims and descendants for generations, for both its legacy and its trauma.

SO I wanna put as much of it as possible into one place for now, so you don't have to go guessing based on older posts. Especially since some of those posts are long outdated, but I haven't contradicted them yet.

To start the story of the two families, it begins with Snowtuft and the bloody end of the Crusade Era.

CONTENT WARNING; this is one of BB's darkest tales. It involves depictions of xenophobic violence, child murder, war crime, PTSD, abuse, and kidnapping. BB!Snowtuft's a bad kitty!

SEE: Kitten Stealing

(Also: After writing it out, I kinda realized this would be great as a BB entry on its own. I should come back and clean this up someday.)

PART 1: THE LAST CRUSADE

Cedarstar inherited the Crusades from Houndstar, continuing them more out of respect for her legacy than true zealotry.

He had actually been chosen as a deputy because he would run the Clan while she was off gallavanting.

He wasn't a pushover or anything, just prefered logistics. Him and Pinestar were tragically ahead of their time.

...but like other cats of his time, he was from a culture that didn't extend personhood beyond the Clans. So, he continued the Crusades.

Even though they weren't getting easier.

Crystal of Chelford had already used a new tool to carve a red future for the cats of the town...

and what were once defenseless little targets began to unite into organized, armed response teams.

Non-BloodClan "zones" got rarer and rarer.

The territory and underlings of an influential cat named Jay were among the last holdouts, so it's where most of ShadowClan's raids were launched.

And on one of these raids... it happened fast.

Snowtuft turned an alley and was ruthlessly attacked. He defended himself.

In the confusion, another assailant ran towards him. He acted swiftly.

It was reflex! Instinct! He couldn't tell what was coming at him. It was a split second decision.

He couldn't undo what had happened. The kitten was dead, next to its mother.

And the others were screaming, crying, terrified.

Snowtuft doesn't remember what he did next. He doesn't want to.

But Puffballburr does.

She used to see it every night.

She remembers her name, too-- Pixie. And her mom. And her littermates.

And the look that washed over his eyes when he realized the ragged flesh at his feet was a kitten.

Raw shock, electrifying shame, the dawning horror of knowing you've definitely done something that you're going to get punished for.

And when his white, blood-splattered face turned slowly towards her and her wailing siblings, she recognized that emotion too.

It's a very childlike response, really.

He needed to cover up his accident.

And he almost did, too. It was dumb luck that stopped him as he grabbed her tail and dragged her out from her hiding place. One of his clanmates heard the awful racket, and Pixie had survived just long enough.

PART 2: ONE OF US

They took her away, just like any other "honor kitten," but the Clan cats believed this was different somehow.

Something about the naked horror of what Snowtuft did, maybe. Impossible to ignore.

But it's not like he faced any real justice for it, not that Puffballkit could remember seeing. So clearly it wasn't very different at all.

His mate left him, and the older warriors regarded him with a distant sort of "shame." He was ostracized from many circles.

But Puff's siblings had not been "clan cats" so the Warrior Code did not apply to them. He faced social dishonor, not legal.

Ever-merciful Cedarstar did not want to "ruin" more lives.

"Not when the kit is far too young to even remember what happened," he said. But she did remember.

And her name. Her mom. Her littermates. That face.

She just knew, growing up, that she couldn't know about it.

Because Snowtuft was always right there, just around the curve of the den, just behind the cover of the rose bush thorns, listening.

They're ALL Snowtuft.

To admit she remembers it is to admit she isn't one of them. And if you're not one of them, the law does not apply to you.

As a kid, she couldn't articulate it. But she understood it.

Deep down to her brittle, kittypet bones. Her filthy, stillwater blood.

The ungrateful heart that beat in her chest.

Fear expressed as a constant, calm obedience of authority. A permanent dread, as if living in a pack as a sheep in wolf's clothing

So she was quiet, notoriously so.

Whoever her foster was, Puff was like a little white shadow. It's where the warrior name came from, eventually-- a puffball clinging to someone's fur. (after writing this though, half of me wants to start calling her Lambfur or Lambfrost.)

ShadowClan plunged into the Campaign Era with Heatherstar's invasion of the Mothermouth Moorland, and the massacre of some kittypet family became awkward history. Those old enough to remember still kept a distance from Snowtuft... but war took its toll.

War means death and those older members of the Clan are not replaceable.

Younger cats weren't there to see the horror of what Snowtuft had done... and time would make him bolder.

Finding growing sympathy in his apprentices, spurred on by the hardening of the culture in tandem with the official birth of Thistle Law, Snowtuft started to change history.

The official Educator of ShadowClan (still unsure who this was) had one story, and Snowtuft had one too.

"Details" were quietly changed in his. They weren't "kits" but "young cats." They charged out to aid their mother. Then maybe she wasn't their mother. Who knows.

Pullball's name was left out of these stories, on both sides. No need for the kittens to know that she wasn't one of us.

And if she was? That's a good thing for her. Living the life of a Clan cat.

He wouldn't share if "he wasn't asked," but all of his actions, his language, was a silent plea to be asked.

He wanted to forget the whole thing, because of his nightmares, his constant shame and punishment, how hard the whole ordeal made his life-- but he couldn't so it was constantly coming out of his mouth.

There was a deep resentment on his end, towards Puffballburr. How she was part of the Clan now, always reminding him. Like it was her fault.

In the end, Snowtuft didn't blame himself. He blamed everything else. The guilt was killing him a little bit every day...

But not as much as that WindClan cat's claws did. Those killed him a lot in one day!

But Snowtuft's death didn't bring Puffballburr any peace. She just felt... annoyed. Which was strange to her-- she should feel relief, but, she didn't. She was just thinking about how the next battle with WindClan would be harder without an extra set of claws.

PART 3: GOING HOME

Puffballfur is the queen of low empathy, and her emotions are... hard to predict.

Not in a chaotic sort of way, but in a "Huh, interesting, I didn't think that of all things would get me going" sort of way.

She both lives in constant "fear" but also a persistent banality. It's kind of like being in a cage with a chained tiger, but you've marked the exact spot on the floor where the tiger's chain ends.

Imagine getting nightmares that stop you from sleeping, but you know that they aren't going to come true. So you lay there with a throbbing heart, mostly feeling annoyed that you're going to be tired in the morning.

That's her life.

Sometimes when she couldn't sleep, she'd roll on her back in the nest and critique the assassination attempt in her mind.

Did he think his dumb plan through? Or did he just react without thinking? It was going to be obvious he killed a bunch of kids, whether she survived or not.

Or maybe he would have just said that the rogue killed her own kits to prevent them from becoming Clan cats. They'd probably believe that.

Either way it was sloppy. Could have had more kits if he didn't kill her sibs.

She had connections within the Clan. A foster, hunting buddies, apprentice. She was kind to them, especially when they were useful. But...

It feels like she's not like them. Like they have variables to their behavior that she doesn't. Drives and desires that are pointless, sometimes even frustrating.

Like the concept of "honor." Ridiculous. Every single person who talks about it is hypocritical about it in some way, and it causes unnecessary fights in the camp and on the border because of ridiculous ego.

She just performs it because the other cats value it-- and when people like you, you get what you want.

I'm not sure who her mate was, or if it was even just one. In any case, when she found herself pregnant, she declared Queen's Rights. I feel like she might have had a fling with someone, but got annoyed by their clingy behavior.

When her daughters were born, Bracketkit and Lizardkit, she felt pride.

Because... they didn't belong to someone else. They weren't even really ShadowClan's. They were hers.

For the first time since her mother and littermates had been taken away from her, she felt like she was looking at family. People who would always be with her.

But that didn't last...

...because a chance encounter only a few moons later reconnected her with someone who remembered her.

Not a littermate, but an older sister. Marmalade. She couldn't believe that Pixie was alive.

This is a WIP zone because I'm not sure, yet, if I'm keeping Hal's attack on ShadowClan. In any case, they continued to reconnect for moons.

The fact that she was remembered, that she could talk openly about what happened, and that Marmalade wanted her and her kittens to come home made Puffballburr's stomach flutter with excitement. She felt valuable.

And with the war getting worse and worse, this was absolutely the best choice for her kittens as well. They would be safer with BloodClan than they would with ShadowClan.

No longer would she be Puffballburr. Her name was Pixie.

ENTER: LIZARDSTRIPE

Puffballburr wasn't a bad mother, but it would feel a lot better to be Lizardstripe if she could have the simplicity to just say she was.

Her earliest memories of her mom and her sibling were outside of the camp on a cool, clear spring night, laying in soft marshgrass. Puff was laying on her back with her hind legs bowed out, a kit tucked under each paw, pressed to her fluffy, warm chest. Her face was turned upward, quietly, at the moon, as her daughters slept peacefully.

She's not sure how long after she'd opened her eyes that this memory took place, but Lizardkit looked up towards the bright, starry sky... and she remembered that the light hurt.

Her needs were always taken care of, but Puffballburr hated explaining things.

You learned quick to treat your questions like a valuable resource, and to listen carefully.

Lizardkit was sharp, much sharper than her sister. She caught onto the way that her mother viewed relationships in a very transactional sort of way-- and stayed aware of her balance.

And had to consider the cost of doing the things her mother was fond of, versus what the other kittens and queens in the nursery expected of her.

What Puffball didn't realize when her children were born was that they were family, but they were also ShadowClan. Even if this was not something she had ever felt a connection to.

Deep down, it didn't truly click with her that her children were not extensions of herself.

And when Lizardkit was a child, learning history from the Educator and getting involved in more of the Clan's goings-on, Puffballburr spent less and less time with her. Because she was reconnecting with Marmalade.

When Bracket and Lizard had their apprentice ceremony, Puffballburr was not there.

Lizardpaw's mentor was the infamously powerful, chaotic fighter, Finchflight. Bracketpaw was assigned to Brackenfoot. (There is an earlier post suggesting that Lizi and Finf were going to be related. I decided to make them mentor/apprentice instead.)

Finchflight immediately began to stress the importance of loyalty. Being one of the younger cats who had sympathized with Snowtuft and knowing the secret behind Puffballburr's beginnings, he nurtured a pain within Lizardstripe. Encouraged her to let the distance between her and her family grow.

Eventually, Puffball told her children that they were going to leave ShadowClan. They had family in the town, would be safe there, could start a brand new life together.

And Lizardpaw was shocked.

It was like everything Finchflight had said was true.

And they were going to leave her.

She reacted violently to the suggestion, attacking her mother. Told them that she was going to expose them, lead a patrol right back to their new hiding place, bring them "back home."

In defense of Puffballburr, Bracketpaw brawled with her sister. They fought viciously, until their mother separated them with a desperate, devastating whack to Lizardpaw's head.

Laying dazed on the ground, she heard an apology before passing out.

When she woke up, she was safely protected within a blackthorn bush-- with a nick on the outside of her ear.

She stayed out there for hours, not knowing what to do, where her family had gone, or what she was going to say when she got home.

But, looking at her reflection in a puddle of water, she became so angry at the idea of this being her first scar that she ripped the other ear, on the opposite side.

When the search party found her, they asked what had happened to her. If she had seen her mother or her sister, or if something had gone wrong.

"Nah. Took a nap to get away from them. Ripped my ears on the thornbush."

Later, when she would be interrogated or questioned by people she didn't want to lie to, she would tell a half-truth;

"I did it to myself. Liked how it looked. Last I saw of Puffballburr and Bracketpaw, they were upset I'd done it and left, so I took a nap."

She didn't mind that her Clanmates thought this was weird. She didn't care about whispers that it was all done for attention, or that it was dishonorable to do such a thing and they probably met a predator after storming off, and she didn't even mind the gossip guessing at the "real" reason behind her ripped ears.

The only people who ever got the whole truth were the Forget-Me-Nots. After their disappearance, Lizardstripe didn't talk about her family for years, insisting upon having no further details. Even if it meant that mystery and suspicion would hang around her like a cloud.

BLIZZARDWING: KIN OF SNOWTUFT

Snowtuft's daughter was named Lilyfur. She was a kit when her father slaughtered Pixie's family.

When her mother left her father, she also distanced herself from him. This was something Snowtuft was outraged and saddened by.

But Lilyfur's mother couldn't stand the idea of a kitten-killer trying to stay close to her daughter. How could he look at little babies, the same age as his own child, and kill them?

Lilykit grew up very conflicted. She remembered how much she loved her dad, understood that he was a kitten murderer, but he continued to be so kind to her into adulthood.

It was hard to think of him as someone who could do something so horrible.

Earlier draft had Lilyfur die and her kittens were raised by their kin, Snowtuft, but I'm currently leaning towards Lilyfur being alive but just letting him be an active part of their lives-- in spite of her discomfort.

Because the more time he spent in her life, paradoxically, the more obsessed he became with all the "time he lost out on."

Which ended up including entertaining a lot of conversations about how he'd never done anything wrong, ever, and everyone was mean to him.

Lilyfur: "ok maybe he's not evil but my dad is really annoying <:/ but he's really lonely. He needs me. and i cant take him away from his grandkits"

From this, what Blizzardwing absorbed was the idea that love and forgiveness was always tolerating your family no matter what. This would express itself in his toxic relationship with Hollyflower.

But Blizzardwing now has a sibling. I haven't settled on a name yet-- but I'm playing with him either being Angelshade or Silkflower.

I really like the name "Angelshade" as a reference to the notoriously deadly white mushroom, the Destroying Angel. But also. someone in the audience asked if I could give the prefix "angel" to a cat because it's their name, and I feel a little bad about giving it to a character who is going to be one of the nastiest little background characters in all of BB lmaooooo

i'm so sorry angel (positive), is it okay if there's an angel (derogatory)

ANYWAY, Untitled Blizzardwing Sibling grew up adoring his grandpaw.

Radicalization can be a slow creep. He loved peepaw, so if he was asked when he was young, he would happily repeat the adjusted version of history he was taught.

And then when Snowtuft died, he wanted to remember him fondly. The story slowly changed, becoming more "accurate," just getting more comfortable with the idea of dehumanizing outsiders.

So what, if he killed some kittypet? And if some kits had already been indoctrinated into their kittypet life? It was still a gain for ShadowClan, in the end.

One summer day, without warning, he came home with two little kittens. One was white, one was brown, both had the pinkish tinge of poorly cleaned blood.

He grinned playfully at Brokenstar, and claimed Queen's Rights in a singsong tone.

Because of that rite, no one could ask where he'd gotten those kittens from. But everyone knew he'd done something grim.

Those kits, Whitewater and Brownstone, grew up under the crescendo of Brokenstar's reign, both taking part in the WindClan Massacre.

Whitewater's bloody story includes joining Mudclaw's Rebellion, giving birth to three kits, a souring relationship with her son, condemnation to the Dark Forest, ends in the Battle of the True Eclipse after killing her grandson.

Brownstone's tale includes a relationship with a WindClan cat during the bloodiest period in the history of their two Clans.

And their father's story ends in Chelford, after being exiled from ShadowClan by Nightstar. His canon counterpart is the Unnamed White Rogue from Rise of Scourge, who tries to order Scourge to be his personal servant.

(the other two cats are Braketail, the "Offbrand Brokenstar" pale tabby, and Pirateheart, the gray rogue with green eyes. Glitch Warriors for the pile!)

The Study of Trey. Part 3: Country and Symbolism

Okay, I just dropped a flag and coat of arms on you. First of all, Trey is a country spanning the entire planet of Trey. There might be a few reocurring symbols you've already noticed: the fire, and the pi-looking thing. Let me explain.

The fire symbol represents the inner fire and the aspects. The only source of information on them is the Angel, so I will quote him: "The Aspects are the pieces that make up the emotional core of every ruler, former or otherwise, even I have a little fire burning insude of me now. The fires inside former rulers are dampened, although it does not matter as much anymore due to the fluid nature of the transfer of power, as opposed to the chronological transfer, which was used when i got created."

The pi symbol represents the shadows: the thoughts, ideas and constructs. The most research into this topic was done by an ancient ruler called the Shadelord. in one of his earlier works he writes: "I have entirely reformed the structure of Trey and become king to its many new inhabitants. The introduction of the unsupported void was a resounding success! For this achievement i have granted myself a pair of black wings." Later he comments on an another very important discovery: "I have closely observed the process of creation and coronation of my child, the Alchemist. From that I have concluded that the outer shell of a ruler is made from void, and that during coronation a flame exits from the old ruler and is absorbed by the new one."

Now lets discuss the positioning of the two symbols. The fire is always on top and the shadows always support the flames. That is in reference to the composition of rulers.

The other symbols are easier to explain. The wings are here because of the tradition to grant rulers wings once they have done an amazing good deed. The crown present here was designed during the second generation of rulers, but to my knowledge nobody actually wore it then and nobody wears it now. It's just a symbol at this point. The black rose is here to honor the fallen rulers of the past. And the sword and the cane are here to represent materials unique to Trey: angelsteel, angelshade and the guidance crystals.

1-3 for... Nightshade and Angel?

1. Who laughs at their own joke and who deadpans at the joke?

shit i realized halfway through answering this question that it does not, in fact, mean “who laughs at their own joke and who tells jokes completely deadpan”, but rather, “who laughs at their own joke and who deadpans at the other’s joke that the other is laughing at”. i was gonna say that they’re both kinda deadpan joke tellers, but nightshade’s more of a with-a-smirk joke teller than a true deadpan teller and angel either points to the joke they wrote down completely expressionlessly or (occasionally) laughing uncontrollably

but uhhh i can see nightshade sometimes telling a joke (with a smirk) and angel either not registering it as a joke or fully registering it as a joke but not laughing

2. If they had a secret handshake, how would it go?

fuck i never had a secret handshake so idk how they work #growingupfriendlessinmysensitiveearlyyears

i feel like they’d have like. one that looks completely normal to outsiders but isn’t (which, TIL, was the original use of them before they became elementary school friendship fun?? huh). like, they join hands as to shake them, but don’t move their arms for a solid two seconds, and then shake exactly twice

3. It’s movie night, what movies are they gonna watch together?

alright i still watch 0.75 movies a year so i’ll describe the movies they’d watch rather than naming specific ones that exist:

really bad ones, a good chunk of which are bad crime/mystery movies but that’s not all

old classics angel really likes

that gay shit

angel picks out most of the movies because That’s Her Thing and she has varied tastes in movies but she does like art films and good crime dramas like slightly more

not movie night but they do go see things in theaters a lot and then criticize the movies they just saw

Oh I actually love Angelshade as a name for that grim sibling, it invokes a sort of angelic facade for something darker underneath to me, y'know?

While we're on the Snowtuft subject- is there a Snowtuft-kin motif? I feel like there's already a lot of focus on how being related to Snowtuft affects his descendants, so it'd check out. Is Snowtuft channeled by anyone once he goes to the Dark Forest?

I figured it was best to start with Snowtuft himself, so I did some sketches trying to find something for him to pass down through the generations. Most folks tend to give him a "poof" of fur on the top of the head, but I like manes so much that I kinda wanted to avoid "defaulting" to them, y'know?

A bundle of sketches later, I did some ear tufts in a way I think would be fun to play with. So, for now, the official "Family Trait" the Snowkin Lineage carries is these distinctive "ear puffs."

I might revise these, though. Blackstar has the iconic black hood and points which would also make for a great family trait, but I couldn't think of how to work that back into a line of cats who's pure white. Maybe I'll put colors on their paws and muzzles, and the "ear tufts" will sort of split away from the line that leads to Blackstar.

(Since Blackstar doesn't have the tufts, which is kind of the point.)

Design and extra stuff;

Lilyfur's ear fluffs are actually based on the yellow center of a lilypad flower, and I couldn't help but give her little lilypad eyebrows.

Even though they look like pacmans <3

If I go with the idea of points, she'll be having pale yellow paws and a tail.

The family's fur is extremely thick and oily. Most of them are very smooth and well-groomed, Snowtuft's kind of unkempt in comparison.

I've seen Silk/Angel described as "The Chad Cat from Rise of Scourge" so I felt like it was a crime to leave out his ridiculous jawbones.

I also made his eyes super light to match canon. If I ever did alter his colors, I'd want to make those pale orange.

EDIT: Oh, and, lastly, Snowtuft is actually not channeled very often. He is the sort of spirit who would massively disappoint the one who went through the trouble and blasphemy to do so, because he doesn't remember the parts of his life he wanted to forget.

You can remind him of those parts of his life, but the more that comes back to him, the more upset he will get until he's just kind of crying about it. It's extremely uncomfortable for someone who's definitely trying to get in touch with him because they think killing babies is cool.

[red-witch-hazel]

[feeling-squidish]

Okay so I love how the only okay relationships between Angelshade and someone other than Fowler are the ones with Shockwave and Starscream. Everyone else doesn't like him but he doesn't exactly like a lot of ppl either (we appreciate the Respect for June)

Speaking of which how did June earn his Respect cuz that sounds like a good story

Okay its kind of funny. Angelshade has respect for mothers because he knows what it was like to raisw him😭😭😭 he was a HORRIBLE child bro. And he doesn’t exactly like jack for one, (even though angel is glad these kids are getting involved in the war, he likes them for that) hes like “Although your species is overall worthless, i respect you for… putting up with him.” LMFAOOO

[thefabulousaliceangel]

ofc darling! I would love to tell you more (love the pfp btw)

they have pet names for each other (Cuphead-CozyCups and Bendy is Angelshade). Cuphead is Cozycups because he is a cuddle bear, and Bends is Angelshade because he’s Cupheads “Angel”.

Alice (Bendys sister) is their biggest supporter! She loves teasing them and they often have to hide from her because she will CHASE THEM DOWN!

Cupheads date ideas are WACK! His idea of a date is jumping off the Empire State Building (with parachutes) or something that lands them both in the hospital. Bendy goes along with it because it brings him thrill and enjoyment.

Cuphead is the smartest and the dumbest person in the room, which makes Bendy more attracted to him. Like one moment, Cuphead can solve an extremely complex math problem, and have trouble opening a door the next. The worst part is the fact that he doesn’t even know that he is dumb, he’s just clueless, and Bends is like “awwww that’s so cute”.

despite what everyone says nowadays, Cup is the man in my au, and Bendy boy is the woman!

alr that’s it for now. I have more, but I don’t want to spoil my fic soooo…

Bendystraw headcanon

I feel like Bendy is the type to sweetly tease Cuphead. Not to annoy him just to get him flustered. Like he might call Cuphead his “cozycups” just to get Cuphead to short circuit. I also feel like Cuphead is terrible at flirting in real life, but I think the fact that he’s so goofy is even sexier to Bendy. Idk, I feel like Bendy is into clumsy guys (cause he is a bit clumsy himself). Anyways that’s just how I feel, thank you for listening to my Ted talk.

[red-witch-hazel]

wives who pissed off the heaven, the earth, the abyss together 🥰🥰🥰

[bonefall]

hi it's me again, angel (positive) and uve made my fuckin week with angelshade. I love him I'm going to scruff him and put him in air jail. he's going to sit in the corner with me while I suffer thru lipsyncing for school. u have my absolute endorsement in making him as awful as possible

AYE AYE CAP'N ANGEL (POSITIVE).

Angelshade is his official name, I'll take Silkflower and keep it in my back pocket. For you I also did a drawing of him which I'll turn into a character summary later, once the tree here is done;

Tried to keep his design pretty animator friendly while also putting in the silver colorpoints. He's Blackstar's uncle and I wanted to make sure it showed.

WC fandom is wonderful and amazing with cat designs, but also, I'm holding up the Saggy Wrinkle Lovers in our community singlehandedly. Rejoice, for I present you; Evil Old Man

Bitemark on his ass is a love letter. For who? I'll let you be the judge of that.

Was trying to make sure he was "grizzled" by Clan Culture standards without being too complex, so I made sure his major scar is in an area easy to keep "out of frame" and the shoulder slash is simple.

Big pouch, old man throat dangle, canon-appropriate chad jowls.

Also simplified his ear "jag" into a missing piece.

He will be one of ShadowClan's biggest menaces, gleefully taking part in all of Brokenstar's most violent plans and committing quiet, personal atrocities of his own.

Angel (Derogatory)shade will eventually die in a pool of his own blood at the hands of a BloodClan cat, but I'm unsure if it's still going to be Scourge, or someone else. I kinda like the idea of it being an extremely pointless death done by someone who never even knew his name, OR having it be incredibly cathartic for the person who killed him while he never even saw it coming.

Also, I was trying to find a Northern English villain to suggest some good evil quotes for him since you mentioned lipsynch work (re: i like the idea that all BB cats would have northern english accents in an "english adaptation" of the clanmew) but the only one I could really find was Curtis from Top Boy.

Link, but CW for Curtis being a domestic abuser and gang member lmao.

"youre gonna do two things for me. first, you don't buy territory in WindClan it's a dump. buy in ShadowClan instead. Secondly, you tell DOOSHANE if he wants what's his, he needs to bring me my kits."
