What an incredibly normal thing to say around your young impressionable daughter, I'm sure this conversation won't impact her later in life.

Haretail has a lot baggage she's carrying and unfortunately it tends to rub off in some unsavory ways :// This won't be the last time

Also Sparrowspots is here! My sweet country farmcat. They are agender and use they/them pronouns, it's just that Oriolepaw is forming gender opinions for the first time give her some slack. Also, some more backstory crumbs! I wonder what it all means...

Oriolepaw's ears flicked and a frown crossed their face when they noticed Whitekit starting to shiver. It didn't look like Blackkit had gotten to that point yet, but it was pretty fuckin' cold out here. Kits probably oughtn't be out in the snow, right? Hm. After a brief moment of deliberation, they shifted closer to the border, sitting more or less right on top of the scent line, and announced, "Alright, c'mere fuckers, you ain't freezing on my watch." A commission for @savingprivatebirb!

Time for a lore drop! And Oriolepaw is getting more curious about her clan's past

This chapter was really important to me to develop the culture of my clans. I'm not the first person to point this out but it is so boring a lame that the canon clans don't have any kind of holidays or celebrations and they don't sing or have festivals??? BORING ITS SO BORING!!

So here are our Duskclan cats having a festival of their own and we learn a little more about that day a year ago... Also, who is that stranger on the last page...?

First DtD of the year! And a bit of a layout change

I love Hootpaw and Oriolepaw's friendship. And all I want for them is to be able to look at bugs together. But alas they were born into a bloodfighter family. Linnetpaw not having a good time, as usual.
