*tosses an AU of a Kraang!Timeline AU at the dash and flees*

[bonefall]

So, your Clear Sky post is absolutely horrifying, but it was very needed, so thank you. What are your general thoughts on tackling his abuse for the AU? Like you've said, pretending he's a good guy is not the way to go, but are you planning on toning down *some* of the situations, just to give some of the cats a break? Clear Sky is a very realistic depiction of abusers, but that seems to come across even without victim number 25, yknow? I'm very curious about how you'd like to go about this.

My most recent big change was bringing Slash back into the fold, because I realized that it was actually a disservice to not address where DOTC's themes dip into Colonialism. It's a hard topic, and I'm still trying to work out the details, but I realized it was important.

With how BB!DOTC is such a MASSIVE overhaul, to properly address abuse and the ways it impacts you, ableism and its violence, and xenophobia broadly, a huge reworking of Slash belonged here too. He's one of the greatest examples of how badly WC demonizes non-Clanborn cats. I shouldn't dance around it.

That's what I need to do with Skystar.

MANY of his victims have happier endings than canon, though. Bumble is one of the most famous, bumped up into a major character and directly responsible for the formation of ThunderClan. Bright Storm is taking most of Gray Wing's roles. Birch and Alder are getting examined, with either a father who wants his kids back or Milkweed as the mate of Misty.

A lot of people will die because of him, even more will be hurt, but I see BB!DOTC as a story about victims and survivors.

Others might grab POVs here and there, but as a response to canon which I feel is Clear Sky's story told in many parts, I center this rewrite around Thunder Storm. The path of kindness he marches down, with love and with anger, and the people he helps.

So BB!Star Flower...

Previously I was playing her as ENTIRELY just manipulating Clear Sky. She was loyal to One Eye and trying to get at Skystar to bleed him dry for 8 lives to sacrifice; but connected to Thunderstar over recognizing him as a victim who deserves her idea of justice. So, she offers Thunderstar the final kill, so her father will be grateful to him and he'll get power AND the death of his abuser.

(When Thunderstar looks upon Skystar, pathetic and neutralized down to one life, he thinks about the collateral damage that will descend upon the forest if he accepts the deal. He decides that he has found the line between Justice and Justification. Of course he wants the power to make his enemies cower, protect his people, and eliminate Clear Sky so he never threatens them again; that's not the problem.

He can still do these things. He wouldn't NEED the power of a war god to do so.

But if One Eye returns, he will be endlessly hungry, ruthlessly dedicated to revenge, and set out to devour the whole forest. Everything would get worse, and even more people he loves would die. It's where his desire to destroy a monster would lead to him BECOMING one.)

Even on its face, it was previously missing an element. There's a step between "Starf decides to bring One Eye back" and "Starf offers Thunderstar the final kill" that was bare. This is the piece that was missing-- That she, herself, is trying to reach out to the only person who's ever really understood her.

But more importantly... I do feel this topic belongs here, in BB!DOTC. Abuse is a MAJOR theme. SKYSTAR is a monster already. He's harmed two wives in BB (Bright Storm and Falling Cry) and played toxic games with all three kits (Thunder Storm, Pale Sky, Tiger Sky).

And I'd avoid Star Flower being abused... why? Because it's uncomfortable to confront the pattern that Clear Sky displays? That in-canon, he tries to cut all his victims into the same ideal shape, from Storm to Thunder to Star Flower? ...it should be uncomfortable. Everything that I described in Clear Sky Is A Monster is rooted in the same desire for control, power, and punishment most abusive people share, he just happens to be a severe example.

Yes. That includes how he treats his child and romantic partners. The parallels that are drawn between Starf and Thunder are there because he wants power in the form of obedience. Starf replaces the son as a narrative award for his "growth" of not killing random people anymore for a while.

A cookie cutter is an effective tool because IT ONLY MAKES ONE SHAPE.

You know what's more uncomfortable? Reading canon!DOTC and seeing someone who hurt you reflected almost perfectly in the character the writers think did nothing wrong. Because of "good intentions" that were not there.

I will say though, just to be clear; I don't see a purpose in being more than PG-13 about serious topics for this project. I promise none of my intentions have changed. Nothing will be more graphic or gorey than canon WC-- just more intentional.

I'm keeping the sacrifice because it's dope. No one is taking this from me. Girl Moment: Killed her awful husband 8 times to count as 8 sacrifices and offered the last life to her buddy as a show of good will. How else do you make friends outside of high school

But I know now that Star Flower NEEDS to keep the canon fact she has very little agency, UNTIL that moment she snaps.

She's sacrificing one abuser to try and bring back a bigger, badder one, because in spite of everything, her father One Eye always made her feel safe. Even though he promised her off to Skystar, and expected her to be willing to die for him. She's followed every command, every order, past the death of his mortal vessel.

The first, and only, selfish choice she's ever made was in reaching out to Thunderstar to offer him the power of her father.

Thunderstar's Justice is a story about a Thunder Storm at the pinnacle of his arc, how the survivors of his Clan are settling into the new normal after the carnage of The First Battle, how Skystar's arrogance brings a violent god to the Forest... and the connection Thunderstar makes with the daughter of a monster.

[ask-the-totally-real-peppino]

You mentioned once that Eg has both polecat and dart frog DNA, right? That implies that other clones can have more than one type of animal mixed with them. Thinking of the possibilities is exciting :)

(That is correct! Now it is time for 'Bean talks about clone OCs again!!!' (Also Bean is not a scientist, and we are using cartoon logic, so do not come at them for inaccuracy!!!)

In the most simple of terms, there are three groups that clones can be classified into! (Well, four, but we'll get into that)

The first group is clones with just a single species of animal (or plant!) spliced into their DNA, with examples being Spud (Star-Nosed Mole) and Mirtillo (Common Vampire Bat)

These guys are probably second most common! Giving clones specific traits without the risk of mixing DNAs and causing the clone to explode or something

The second group is clones with more than one set of DNA, but those animals are all the same species, ie Vitelotte having only spider DNA (Jumping Spider, Wolf Spider, Tarantula etc (side note, no specific subspecies bc there are so many spiders I do not have the spoons to look through them all and pick some out kjfdsjf)), and Mint Chip having shark DNA (Tiger Shark and Thresher Shark)

These guys are probably the most common type as they (the scientists) were giving clones specific traits from animals like the singular DNA clones, but also did not want to be limited if one type of species could do something another couldn't

And then Eg falls into the third group of having more than one set of DNA from different animals! As mentioned, she has Striped Polecat (aka African Skunk or Zorilla) and Blue Poison Dart Frog DNA! Another example, bc I need to have two examples, is BB, who is a mix of Boer Goat, African Lion, Ball Python, and King Cobra!

This group is the rarest out of the three, bc mashing together DNAs like that often resulted in failure, but that does not mean they are few and far between!

And last, but not least, special cases!!! This is the group Pep falls into, even tho he should technically be in the third group, he is packed with so many different kinds of DNA, he is very much an outlier here

And there are a few other outliers, who would also technically be in one of the previous groups, but what makes them different is that they were not purposely spliced with certain DNAs, and were the result of cross-breeding (two (or more) different clones with different DNAs making a baby), or cannibalism (eating another clone and absorbing their set(s) of DNA)

Since our time is up i want to say thank you to the bad batch fandom for keeping me sane through the many cryptic memes and tweets from the writers of this God forsaken show, echo's hiatus, techs dealth and so much more.

In all seriousness I will miss this show sm it has been so fun to watch it in real time. The bad batch fans are a gem among fandoms and I will miss it with all my heart.

Thank you <3

Wait omg..... Jessica Cruz probably did rifle... my specialized sports knowledge coming in CLUTCH

Okay so I barely practiced and made it to regionals like once so im NOT the expert here but uh headcanoning that Jess did air rifle when she was a teen. Like idk if it would be as part of a team like with a high school (what I'm familiar with) vs like an individual thing vs like a travel/competitive team (it depends on the sitch in her area growing up) but she definitely went to some national matches (probably including JOs/JO quals like i think she was GOOD). I think she probably would have quit competitively following a bad shot at nationals (relatable) along with anxiety about competition (ALSO relatable) but still kept up with shooting casually for fun and relaxation and to hang out with friends etc.

She definitely would have shot smallbore competitively too but I never did that bc I was lazy so idk to much abt it competitively

SINK OR SWIM: HEADCANONS (2016 & 2024)

161204

arrives sooooooooo early at the resort (2pm), no thanks to that dumbass moon daehyun! she is definitely strangling him once she gets back home.

immediately spots sunyoung once she enters the lobby, and deems it a perfect time to score some brownie points with the 2016 queen.

nothing to do but wait… fuck this stupid ritual and fuck jung yoojin for dragging the whole thing out for so long. fuck min yurim too. just because.

still socialises where she can though, venturing out of her room, because let’s be real, the king’s club is nothing but a glorified version of big brother for the wealthy and aera has her social game down pat.

schemes with chanyeol against im minsu, who is admittedly a lesser enemy compared to noh hyungseo, but still an obstacle in his path of securing the position of chessmaster.

makes her way to cheongpyeong lake very disgruntled and disbelieving at what they’re about to do.

240721

whose bright idea was it to send an invitation the week of the event? like hello, would it hurt to show some consideration for the celebrity who was fully booked out? still, she tries her best to cancel what she can, rescheduling when possible.

was the last to arrive anyway (6.30pm); filming for the movie had dragged and caused the only remaining schedule left for that day to be delayed as well. barely got on the plane to jeju #tbh 

uses the event as an opportunity to finally meet with juyeong and air their grievances about their current situation.

honestly very annoyed when the discovery is made like, what is this? fucking scooby doo? oh my god, give her a break! she has actual issues to worry about. 

(however, she can’t shake off the bad feeling she has. what if… what if… what if there’s more to come? hmm… maybe she’s just being paranoid. it’s probably nothing. has to be nothing.)

in spite of her thoughts, aera extends her sympathy to yunhee and is there to provide a shoulder to cry on or a listening ear if she needs it since it’s clear she’s in a bad way.

doing a damn good job of acting unaffected during dinner, engaging in conversation with anyone who comes to talk to her, but barely touches the food. says it’s this new diet she’s on for the movie.

so… what was the point of this meet-up again?

[gay-trashcan-cat]

Hello there folks!

now you may be wondering what this wacky blog is or just want more information on the monster running it! So here is that in a single post 😈

Numero 1- hey hello, I am Gecko, call me by whatever (what? it's not a gender reveal, I like to keep em guessing!)

Number 2- I am an artist but also just a shitposter so you'll see lots of reblogs and doodles (either of my own creations or things I enjoy)

Number 3- my inbox is most likely open, so confess your love for me! Or I guess you can ask me about my stories and characters or whatever goofy stuff you guys can think of 🙄

Number 4- this goes back to number 3 Don't ask super "goofy", uncomfortable things, I still have to read it meaning don't send me spice or cross boundaries of my own smh

Number 5- I do actually speak ✨️Español✨️ so if you see a post in an alien language🙀 just know it's Spanish! Don't test my Spanish skills though, I know I'll manage to mess up

Number 6- I'm a little shy so if I don't friend/dm or follow you just know I'm trying my best 🤧 🤠(also do understand that even if I do chat with you, I still dont know you and you dont know me! so there will be a boundaries there compared to people I know irl)

Lastly number 7- haha, get away from me if your homophobic and racist🥰🤩

EXTRA:

I do have a few stories but the main one I have posted right now does not have a name YET, but does center around this character named Luis, so feel free to make art and ask questions about my boy! (Dw there are many other characters too and more to the story I'll dump eventually😏 )

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any required therapy from prolonged exposure to my art.
