Leafstar, will you tell us more about the old Skyclan?

[songleap]

icestars leader ceremony life choices keep replaying in my head because this poor cat has more dead family members than living ones by a long shot but by virtue of being background characters the only one she gets a life from is her grandson who also happens to be the protagonists father

[dawn-sunlight]

I really wish Icewing's leader ceremony picks had been better. So I made my own.

Riverstar - Compassion - Riverstar is the founder of RiverClan, but more importantly, he has been incredibly influential and important this arc. Plus, he already interacted with Icewing in Ivypool's Heart. And given the type of clan he is hoping RiverClan will go back to being, I feel like he should give Icewing a life related to treating other cats kindly.

Mintfur - Unity - Mintfur is Icewing's dead mate. While I wouldn't have minded him giving Icewing a life for love because a. Mintfur isn't really a character and b. I think it would be kinda cute, I also appreciate Icewing not getting any sort of life for love in canon so I decided to have him give her a life for unity instead. I also think unity relates to the arc and Icewing's path to rebuilding RiverClan a lot better than love does.

Petalfur - Perseverance - Petalfur is Icewing's daughter. When she was alive, she went on the quest to dismantle the beaver dam, and she and the other cats needed a lot of perseverance in order to do it. And now, Icewing will most definitely need perseverance to build RiverClan back up even better than before.

Jayclaw - Justice - Jayclaw is canonically Icewing's grandson, and I also headcanon him as being Icewing's first apprentice. Since he's also not really a character, I'd have him give a life relating to the arc as a whole.

Mistystar - Fairness in judgment - Mistystar was the previous leader of RiverClan. Last arc, she exiled Icewing and Harelight despite knowing she was wrong for siding with the Imposter and they were correct for fighting against him. So her giving a life of fairness and/or judgement to Icewing seems very fitting given their history.

Galestar - Perspective - Galestar was one of the leaders of the forgotten clan StormClan, and Icewing and Ivypool restored the memory of that clan in Ivypool's Heart. Galestar giving the life of perspective is fitting considering the super edition had a theme of the world being bigger than the worldview one is raised with. Plus it relates to the hope for RiverClan to be more open and less hostile.

Pricklekit - Hope - Pricklekit is Icewing's son who died of greencough as a kit. Because he's ALSO not a character due to only showing up in the allegiances, I would go basic and just have him give a generic uplifting kit life.

Hollowflight - Forgiveness - Hollowflight is a former Dark Forest Trainee like Icewing. I headcanon that Icewing is the reason Hollowflight ended up fighting for the clans despite what he was saying right before the battle, and that Icewing felt really guilty that he died, feeling she should have done more to help him. And I love the idea that Hollowflight comes up to give Icewing the life Beetlewhisker would have given her if his spirit was still around, becuase given their history it makes sense for him to give a life of forgiveness but they both know Beetlewhisker should have been there to give her the life instead. But on some level, that's part of the life. Hollowflight is giving it to her not just so she can use it for others, but also so she can use it for herself, because he genuinely believes she saved him, even if he did end up dying during the Great Battle.

Harelight - The strength to do what’s right - Harelight was exiled with Icewing last arc, and Star states outright they had a friendship. I also headcanon that Harelight was Icewing's second apprentice and that Icewing is pretty close with his family in general, so their relationship is pretty close in my mind. The two's exile was caused by Mistystar being mad about them breaking the rules to do the right thing, so she punished them for it. So this life feels very fitting for Harelight to give Icewing. Plus Icewing will probably need it, especially as she starts to have to make decisions that she believes to be right but are unpopular with the other clans or even her own clanmates in the name of restoring RiverClan.

If I was writing the nine lives ceremony for the canon books specifically, the only change I'd make to this is switching out Hollowflight for Reedwhisker, the previous RiverClan deputy who was murdered, since the Hollowflight life is pretty much exclusively my own headcanons. I'd have Reedwhisker give the life of Integrity to Icewing because RiverClan needs a leader with integrity and the last one certainly did not have that.

My 10% Left AU

I saw the idea of a 10% left after the Dark Forest Battle AU and LOVED the idea, so I decided to run with it! Thank you to @10leftau for putting the Allegiances list up, and for coming up with the idea!

((TW: Mentions of death/dead bodies, brief mention of self-imposed starvation/ED, orphaned child))

The Survivors:

TC: Bumblestripe, Poppyfrost, Mousefur, Purdy

SHC: Mistkit

WC: Crowfeather, Owlwhisker, Gorsetail

RC: Reedwhisker, Mintfur, Icewing, Robinwing, Graymist

The Story:

The 12 (hang on) survivors meet on the Gathering Island. Reedwhisker, being the only surviving deputy, assumes the role of leader, naming Crowfeather his Deputy. Poppyfrost takes on the role of medicine cat, she spent a lot of time with Jayfeather in the medicine den after he saved her life as an apprentice so she picked up a few things, and she also wants to honor her friend. She treats the others' injuries as best she can, and they bed down for the night. 

The next day, while helping to clear ShadowClan camp with Bumbletripe and Icewing, Poppyfrost hears loud mewing, and follows it to where a little gray lump of fur. Mistkit, daughter of Kinkfur.  Her eyes aren’t even open yet, but she’s now the sole survivor of ShadowClan. Poppyfrost is immediately reminded of her precious kits, Cherrypaw and Molepaw, who were too young to be thrown into the war with The Dark Forest. Not that it would have mattered in the end, the lawless cats they fought against didn’t care who they killed. She and the group bring Mistkit back, and Icewing takes care of her while they try to figure out what to do about nursing her. Poppyfrost suggests the Horseplace cats, remembering what Berrynose told her about the cats he and his mother and siblings lived with, and while the others are apprehensive, Reedwhisker states that it’s their best bet. Gorsetail accompanies Poppyfrost there, and while Floss is sympathetic to the kit, she explains that she has no milk to offer but mentions Coco, another loner who recently kitted and may have milk to share. Smoky takes the two Clan cats to where Coco lives, and they meet the marbled brown tabby she-cat with three kits. She agrees to take in Mistkit, and returns to the Gathering Island with Gorsetail and Poppyfrost. On the way back, Gorsetail mentions that Kinkfur must’ve fought like LionClan to protect her kits, remembering the time that her own kits went missing, and how she would have torn down the forest with her bare claws to get them back. She and Poppyfrost bond over their lost kits, and vow to do whatever they can to keep this little one safe. 

With Mistkit in the makeshift nursery with Coco and her kits (Maizie, Willow, and Stormy) and reconstruction and rebuilding efforts underway, Reedwhisker decides now is the time to receive his Nine Lives. He and Poppyfrost go to the Moonpool, and drink from it. While Reedwhisker becomes Reedstar, Jayfeather appears to Poppyfrost alongside Cinderpelt, Yellowfang, Runningnose, Mothwing, and several other medicine cats, and explains to her that while StarClan is a bit of a mess right now, they will do everything they can to teach her everything they know. They welcome her as a proper medicine cat, and allow her to reunite with her sisters, brother, and kits for a moment before returning to the waking world. She and Reedstar return to the Island with StarClan’s blessing, and though the celebration is small, it’s still something. After deliberation, the group agrees to permanently settle on the Island (at least for now while they work on burying the dead and cleaning the former Clan Camps). Mousefur decides to spearhead building more permanent structures, and Poppyfrost realizes that she hasn’t seen her eat since before the Great Battle. She tries to dismiss it, maybe she ate while she was out, but decides to keep an eye on her. 

In the days to come, the Clan cats work on rebuilding what they can. Once Mistkit and the other kits are weaned, Coco offers to help, and has even started to grow close to Robinwing in the process. Poppyfrost has started gathering herbs based on what she learns with Jayfeather in her dreams, and has put together a medicine den. Crowfeather establishes patrols each day for hunting, burials, herb gathering, and den building, and everyone pitches in. As Poppyfrost works, she notices Mousefur has started to eat again. Eventually, the she-cat confides in her that she’d has a crushing amount of survivor’s guilt, being an elder that survived when so many young, more “useful” cats are dead, and that rebuilding dens and gathering herbs makes her feel useful. Poppyfrost tries to explain to her that she doesn’t need to force herself to be useful in order to justify her survival, and that her being here keeps ThunderClan’s spirit and memory alive, but has a feeling it falls on deaf ears. She and Gorsetail start to become good friends, and the she-cat comes to talk to her often. About 3 moons pass, and the group has grown closer. Coco formally joins the Clan, takes the name Flowerpetal, and her kits are Stormykit, Willowkit, and Maizekit. Reedstar suggests they hold a Gathering, where they can remember the fallen and hold a vigil for all the cats they lost. They do so, and Reedstar suggests creating a memorial. Robinwing offers to spearhead it, and together the cats create a large pile of stones, one for each cat who passed. They vow to keep the memory of each of their fallen Clanmates alive, and to teach every kit ever born in the clan the story of the Memorial.

Mistkit and her foster siblings become apprentices about 4 moons after the Gathering, becoming Mistpaw, Stormypaw, Maizepaw, and Willowpaw. Flowerpetal moves into the Warrior’s Den, and formally becomes mates with Robinwing, while Icewing and Mintfur (who were mates before the Great Battle) announce that they are having a litter of kits, which excites the new Clan. When discussing who should mentor them, Reedstar, Crowfeather, and Poppyfrost realize that with cats of all clans here there’s really no one fighting and hunting style, so they decide that the kits will be sort of communal apprentices, with a different warrior taking each of them every day. The apprentices even come to Poppyfrost to learn the basics of healing. 

Mistpaw and her siblings become warriors 6 moons later. Reedstar names Mistpaw Mistshadow, to honor the Clan that she was born in and carries the legacy of, while her siblings are named Stormysky, Maizeseed, and Willowbranch. Icewing gives birth to 4 healthy kits: two toms named Riverkit and Thunderkit, and two she-cats names Shadowkit and Windkit, one for each of the clans. Flowerpetal is also in the nursery, expecting Robinwing’s kits. As Reedstar stands there, he realizes their new clan has no name. He decides to call it DawnClan, for the fact they are the dawn of a new era.

Another rarepair: Clovertail X Petalnose <3

There is something so sweet about nursery queen pairings in general but I really have a soft spot for these two minor SkyClan characters~ <3

In Firestar's Quest, Clover and Petal are both cats who join the rebuilt with their kits. Clovertail was a loner seeking shelter from a fox attack, and Petalnose was a kittypet who was ill-treated by her owners and was rescued by Rainfur and Firestar. But after Rainfur is killed in the rat attack I feel like Clovertail would be a major comfort in her grieving process as they are both single mothers now.

They are currently up for vote in a twitter rarepair tournament hosted by lunefalls - there are 20 hours left as of posting if you'd like to vote for them!

Himalayan, Snowshoe and Russian blue

Hi! Thank you for the ask! ☺️ sorry for taking so long 😭

-Himalayan: Who’s your favorite villain?

I'd have to say Darktail. I don't really care about wc villains all that much, they all tend to feel very copy-pasted, unless you drown yourself in headcanons. But Darktail, and specifically, the Darktail in Hawkwing's Journey, was kinda fun to read about.

-Snowshoe: Who’s your favorite parent(s)?

From canon material? Palebird and Woollytail.

And an honorary mention for Sparkpelt too.

From stuff in my head? Icestar and Mintfur.

-Russian Blue: What moment almost made you stop reading, or was just too ridiculous?

When they gave Clear Sky a POV in Forest Divided. One of the most insufferable reading experiences of my life. I could not stand to read more than a few pages, before having to take a break. More than one I considered just DNFing it and dropping the arc altogether. Whatever was coming in the next books couldn't be worth that torture (but I didn't. and I was right, it wasn't worth it lol)

I'd complained before about Lionblaze's chapters in POT/OotS being so dull that I often wanted to skip them... but at that moment, I would've celebrated having him as a pov again lol.

I REMAIN

[dawn-sunlight]

I have way too many thoughts about RiverClan cats. Icewing is a character I am way too attached to and so I think about RiverClan a lot. I'm very much rooting for Icewing to be leader or deputy of RiverClan at the end of ASC.

If literally anyone wants to talk about background RiverClan characters with me than please DM me
