He loved everyone with every fiber of his being.
When Rosykit was found, he took care of her, and tried to ignore the way she looked at other kits like they were freshkill.
When he came to the nursery and found it smeared with blood and the remnant of her denmates, he had asked Rosykit what had happened, his voice raising to fever pitch.
She had looked up and said, calmly, “there was a dog.”
Like a fool, he believed her, and helped groom her blood-matted fur.
His mates didn’t believe Rosykit or him. They left him for each other, and soon, Stormwater moved into the nursery with a fresh litter of kits courtesy of Nettlefang.
Or, he had a fresh litter.
One after the other, Stormwater’s kits died, and he started yelling at Peanutfur, blaming him for the deaths. Nettlefang came to his aid, but Stormwater kept blaming Peanutfur.
Gulltuft came to help, helping with Rosykit and keeping her safe, but even the most watchful of cats has to take a break at some point.
His little Rosy, dead. Her blood coating the den floor, Stormwater staring down at her in shock.
He left the Clan. He had to leave, and never come back. But first, he killed Stormwater. Crying as he did it, apologizing even as blood coated his fur. He took Rosy with him, so she wouldn’t be buried by the Clan who had killed her.
During his flight, he briefly shared an old rabbit warren with a warrior named Sapfur, who spoke of a ritual to bring back the dead. He warned, however, that the thing that came back would not be all there, that his Rosy would have to feed daily on flesh.
This didn’t faze Peanutfur.
He started killing that night.
But prey. All kinds, from the smallest shrew to a chicken from a twoleg backyard. He piled the bodies high, and completed the ritual.
He didn’t think she’d wake up so hungry.
As his little Rosy drained him dry, he soothed her, calling her his precious, and telling her that he was so blessed to have her as a daughter.

--Stormwater didn’t kill Rosykit.
