[treecut-place]

Just gonna leave a few requests here, I’m fine with waiting for them

I’d love to see

Leafpool x Hollyleaf

Leafpool x Jayfeather

Leafpool x Lionblaze

That’ll be it for now

Oh hey I like leafholly :3

No warrior name since they came out looking pretty apprentice aged, but a few names I could think up for them would be Juniperskip, Juniperbranch, Juniperleaf (now they're all leaves..), Junipershine, Junipershade, Juniperheart.............

Also uhh *looks at the date of the last Everything* long time no see huh. I did not forget but Damn did Things Happen

To anyone wondering I/we're doing fine! While this blog has been put off on somewhat of an unofficial hiatus, list of things that have occured to the entity running this includes: quietly left the general wc fandom (I'm still into it it's just... the fandom........ scary), deleted outlook-rock, got into rain code, experienced ego death, became a big boy rain code blogger, turned out to be fictionkin, the nefarious personality disorder came (or was there all the time but I ignored it lmao), turned out to be a system, on all levels except physical is most likely not the same person(s) yall know from the early 20s wc profic resurgence but there's lots of memories of it, got into akuma kun, got into a bunch of shit actually, acquired cool mutuals, healed from the horrific trauma of being called a ribosome at wattpad, got even more queer uhhhh etcetera etcetera basically life went on at least for me

But aughhhh I kinda miss the profic wc fandom. It feels like just less and less people are really posting anything, and I don't really know exactly how much the general tumblr fandom has shifted but from what I can gather it's still heavily leaning into the more anti side as usual. But ever since I kinda branched out more, I feel way safer and just. Better. Than when I was just mainly posting cats

But yeah, uh!! Yomi (one of our Guys. proooobably was around in our wc days? can recall most people we sorta got to know back then) has actually recently made a wc sideblog, @/snakerocks! He's the only one that plans on posting abt cats in the near future, and while it's mainly his some others are also allowed to occassionally also post on it as guests lol. The blog is private so it doesn't come up in search results (unless you type it all the way) so he doesn't have to worry about fuckwads getting pissy about whatever he posts like they use to on public blogs. Sooo if ur enchanted with our wcposting you can go follow and ask him whatever, shipping or character or au/rewrite wise or whatever, no matter how random................ So yeah!

Anyway concerning this blog: I definitely won't delete it, I may continue to just post on and off whenever I feel like it, maybe it's gonna be slow and rare as always, maybe i'll get a sudden burst of kitty inspiration and get more active, I dunno.

I hope you all are doing well, whatever you are doing now <33

thunderclan — year twelve — greenleaf

thornstar dies, bramblestar replaces him and appoints lionblaze deputy. ...good job?

traillight and watchstorm become warriors. greystripe continues to refuse to retire.

banepaw, tailpaw, and agoserispaw are apprenticed to cinderheart, rosestorm, and juniperbranch. slugkit dies.

and two litters are born! baykit and myrtlekit to sorrelstripe and dewnose, and flamekit, finchkit, and flickerkit to sparkpelt and larksong. who is still alive.

(re illness: sorrelstripe recovers but alderheart dies. alderheart pushes the care onto her, knowing she's expecting kits and needs her strength.)

[taps-draws-cats]

i love you just the way you are

(she/her for both)

[themissinglynx]

Dudes, I found a bunch of old Warriors OCs from 2016. Let’s see how teenage me did in naming.

If anyone likes any of these names, take your pick or take inspiration. I don’t necessarily care.

Names that are strictly traditional Ashfang, Bramblefang, Cinderclaw, Clayclaw, Dawncloud, Hazelclaw, Icefoot, Iceleaf, Lavenderflower, Lightningstorm, Mallowheart, Stonefang, Stoneheart

Names that could be traditional Acornfall, Beetlewing, Briarshade, Clovertuft, Crowwing, Darkhaze, Duststone, Frostshine, Gingerwing, Hickoryfall, Honeyberry, Nightwind, Pineshade, Roseshine, Turtlestep, Vulturetalon, Whitewater

Names that only work lyrically Brightmoon, Cleverhare, Fawnwillow, Fernwing, Finchchirp, Flamedawn, Furledleaf, Juniperbranch, Leafcrunch, Lushharvest, Meadowgrass, Morningweb, Nightchill, Quailflight, Quietfox, Rabbitsprint, Risingsmoke, Robinflight, Shadedusk, Shyvixen, Silentrain, Slickmoss, Splinteredholly, Strongmaple, Sunfang,

Names that kinda suck Blossomberry, Coldstream, Cooldawn, Dusknight, Frostjay, Grassleaf, Littleolive, Morningpoppy, Redheron, Sagefall, Sunflower, Talljuniper, Tinyberry, Warmflood, Waterfrost

Names that completely suck Bloomlily, Driftbreeze, Emberscorch, Fadednettle, Hayscratch, Hiddenthyme, Largebuck, Lotusfloat, Pinkberry, Redchestnut, Soaringrobin, Sweetmilk, Thunderrumble, Vixenleap, Warmtree, Wetmud, Windpool

Random Warriors Headcanons

After Redtail died, Bluestar didn’t make Tigerclaw deputy due to him claiming to have been Oakheart’s killer.

Silverstream acts as Briarlight’s mother in StarClan.

Leafstar is old, but she’s still totally muscly.

Adding onto the last one, Billystorm is a round and soft boy.

Mosskit is genderfluid.

Gorsetail is also genderfluid, and Beechfur was their supportive forbidden relationship husband. Gorsetail was distraught when he died.

Tallstar is an oriental shorthair.

Scourge is a munchkin cat.

Bramblestar named her Twigbranch because his original idea for Juniperkit’s full name would be Juniperbranch, and gave Twig the name considering she was like family to Alderheart.

Leafstar was going to name Twigbranch Twigshade.

Bramblestar named her Bristlefrost because of whatever darkness is possessing him, as the cat both he and Ivypool loathe is Hawkfrost. Ivypool was horrified by this name, but didn’t comment on it.

Smallear wasn’t named “Smallears” because only one of his ears are small due to a genetic defect. The other ear is normal sized.

The three had symbols on them that represented their powers until after the Great Battle. Dovewing had Periwinkle eyes originally (which turned to green after the battle), Jayfeather had sky blue shimmery eyes with a white X as a pupil (turned to a dark blue with a normal looking gray pupil after the battle), and Lionblaze had eyes that were such deep amber that they almost looked red (which turned to a dull amber after the battle.)

When a cat becomes leader, they gain a white or black (depending on their fur color) on them that represents their warrior name (i.e Firestar gains a white patch of fur in the shape of a heart, Blackstar gains more black on his paws.)

Thornclaw is the surrogate father for Rosepetal and Blossomfall’s kits.

The Origin of RoseClan

For the longest time, warriors lived alone, with no bond with the land they lived on. But strange things happened, things that not even StarClan could have predicted. Winged twolegs, calling themselves ‘fairies’, or the fae, presented themselves to the cats and communicated with them. The first clan that was truly known to find the fae was what now is considered a myth- SunnyClan.

The cats tolerated the fae on their land at first, as they gave them warnings of storms and disasters. They let the fae collect gems and grow their strange rocky flowers, until one day, Heathershine, a young SunnyClan warrior, formed a storng bond with Lumi, a fairy who called herself the Spirit of Light.

She was able to communicate with the land through a dropped gem of Lumi’s and was able to accurately predict an incoming storm, and explained the significance of the crystal flowers to her clan. The leader, Bloomstar, was curious and asked her medicine cat, Gullwing, to ask StarClan about this.

StarClan told Gullwing that fae should be welcomed into the clans as their spirits. Those who bonded with the spirit would be called the spirit cats. Young fairies could train under the spirits as their apprentices, and the cats could train an apprentice too. When the crystals came up, StarClan decided that an assessment or approval wasn’t the only requirement to earn a full name. Crystals were special to the fae, and in turn, they should be special to the cats.

With Gullwing relaying what information he knew to StarClan, the starry cats decided each new warrior, spirit cat, or medicine cat would be given a crystal that corresponds to their actions. The spirit, the leader, the apprentice’s mentor, and the spirit cats would discuss the apprentice together in private, and the spirit would harvest the corresponding crystal. Then, the spirit cats and the fairy would take the apprentice to find at least one herb and one gem. At the ceremony, the spirit or, in the case of a medicine cat apprentice, the medicine cat would present the crystal once the apprentice received their full name. The newly named cat would give their herb to the medicine cats and the gem to the spirit cats as soon as possible.

Gullwing agreed, and StarClan spread the news to other clans. SunnyClan had fully settled in, but some cats weren’t as accepting to the fae. They insulted them and the spirit cats and their crystals. Those that did not comply often were exiled or ran off by themselves.

-----

Most of FlowerClan had been wiped out.

Before that, things had been going great for Rosesplash. She was a young warrior who's life was looking bright. She and her mate, Thornfang, were mentoring a pair of siblings. She mentored Lightpaw, and Thornfang mentored her sister, Brightpaw. Her sister and her friend had finally received their spirit cat and medicine cat names, Poppyfern and Sunstripe. Yes, the future did look promising.

Untill that day. The day Lightpaw, and many others, got sick.

None of them knew what the illness was, but day after day, so many burials to be had. When Sunstripe's mentor, Featherwish, got sick, she told Rosesplash, Thornfang, Poppyfern, and Sunstripe to all run away. To find a safe spot with the Clan's spirit, Leilani

As much as they didn't want to, they did. Leilani helped keep them safe with her magic, and eventually they ended up in an unknown territory, and decided to stop by a lake. As soon as Rosesplash began to lap up the water, she fell asleep.

"Rosesplash." A voice called to her. It was FlowerClan's former leader, Lilystar. "It is time you embrace your destiny. To raise a legacy of your own, as the descendants of FlowerClan. It is time for you to become leader of your own Clan."

'Me?' Rosesplash thought. 'I can't.... but I must. I have so many doubts, but I must have courage if StarClan believes this is my destiny.'

Featherwish padded up to her. "With this life, I give you judgment. Try to judge every cat's actions fairly."

Rosesplash winced as pain shot through her body. She'd have to brace it, she knew, if all the lives were to be this painful.

The next to step up was her mother, Redbriar. "My daughter, I give you this life with the gift of a mother's love. One day, you may have kits, and I want you to love them with all your heart, and to never forget how much I love you.

To her surprise, this life felt nice. Rosesplash sighed with relief, and then the next cat approached her.

"This life will give you the gift of strength," Her mentor, Stonestep, and the former deputy of FlowerClan, touched his nose to her forehead as he stepped up to her. "You are strong, and I have witnessed this firsthand. Use your strength to protect your Clan."

She wanted to yowl as the pain returned. She wasn't expecting it to, but it did. Rosesplash understood that most lives were painful to receive, but some were not.

Rosesplash had to bend down for Lightpaw, who was always a small she-cat, to reach her. "With this life, I give you the gift of mentoring. You always did your best to teach me, and I hope you will continue doing your best to teach others."

Rosesplash braced herself and then waited for the next cat to step up.

"This life holds the gift of belief." Her father, Goldenpelt, touched his nose to her head. "Believe in your Clan. and yourself. You can anything if you put your mind to it."

"My name is Juniperbranch. I died before you were born by protecting your mother, my dearest friend, from a fox. With this life, I give you instincts. Trust them, and follow your heart. Do what you believe is best." The she-cat meowed before touching her nose to Rosesplash's head.

'Just a few more,' Rosesplash thought as she embraced herself for more pain.

"You are a fine warrior." Petalleaf, her other sister who died as an apprentice by protecting the kits of the Clan from a badger when they wandered out of camp, and received her warrior name as she was sent to StarClan, "With this life, I offer you protection. You must protect your Clan and those who are in it with everything you can."

"When I was loner, I lived in fear." Winddash, a cat who joined FlowerClan  after he found it, began to speak as he approached her. "When I found FlowerClan, I expected my life to end right there. But, I was trusted enough to join their ranks. With this life, I will give you trust. Trust those you care about, and let them trust you."

There was one more life, and Lilystar finally approached her. "With this life, I give you courage. Use it to be brave, no matter what trials you face."

As the final sensation of pain left her, Rosesplash relaxed. Lilystar stepped back and began to speak.

"I hail you by your new name, Rosestar. Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of RoseClan. Defend it well; care for young and old; honor your ancestors and the traditions of the warrior code; live each life with pride and dignity."

RoseClan. Rosestar. It felt so strange to be called by that name, to have a Clan named after her as the founder.

"You have a medicine cat, a spirit cat, and a cat worthy of being a deputy." Lilystar spoke once more. "Find a place for a camp, and let Leilani use her magic to prepare it."

As Rosestar woke up, the beginning of RoseClan drew near.

A new leader.

Her mate and deputy.

Her sister and spirit cat.

Her friend and medicine cat.

And the Spirit of Plants.
