#thrushskip

some fun facts -- 

I shipped Dawnclaw & Falconblaze wayyyy back when I was still playing Webstar in Untold Tales, and they were still apprentices. they autonomously became mates in Sims & I couldnt be happier

if I remember correctly Dawnclaw was originally from Shadowclan, and joined Tideclan back in the forest territories

Larkshine & Flaxkit are the only surviving daughters of Dawnclaw & Falconblaze currently, all of the other three suffered unfortunate deaths, all because of randomized rolls

Larkshine & Thrushskip were mates briefly before the death of the latter, but it wasn’t ‘officially’ mentioned

the first and only family tree to have an in-game third gen, all because Owlpaw had a mate & kits way too young

I briefly considered having Owlpaw reincarnated as one of her sons but decided against it -- AU material?

Snowstar was originally from Shadowclan and joined Tideclan back in the forest territories

Without even glancing back at the Tideclan cats, he called to his own cats, “Back to camp!” He picked up one of the small kits and Opalstone the other, and they were off.

As the rival clan departed, Webstar let down his guard, eyes flashing with anger. “Crowfood-eater ... I should have killed him.” He hissed under his breath.

“It’s done.” Flowerscar sighed, crouching as if the weight of the decision just made weighed down on her shoulders.

“We’re not going to leave them there.” Barkbriar growled. “Right?”

“With your permission, Webstar ...” Cedarpath twitched his tail. “I’d like to begin planning a rescue mission right away.”

“Of course.” Webstar agreed, turning with an agitated sweep of his tail and entering the camp once again. “They’ll hear from us yet.” He paused, glancing back. “Flowerscar? Would you take a look at Thrushskip’s wounds?”

The medicine cat nodded quickly. “Please, come to my den, dear. Barkbriar, get some herbs ready, would you?”

“We leave for Tideclan now.” Snowsoul announced, obviously quite happy with himself. “You’ll do the honors of keeping an eye on our guest, won’t you, Opalstone?”

Opalstone nodded silently, his face neutral.

“How could I trust you? Aren’t you one of these fox-hearts?” Thrushskip scoffed, eyeing him warily.

“I’m not trying to hurt you. That ... that was never part of the plan.” The tom sighed, starting to lose his patience. As he stepped closer to his sibling, she tensed and raised her head, claws sinking into the hardwood underneath them. He glanced at her paws, then back to her face as he spoke, “All i’m asking is for you to keep quiet and cooperative. I’ll be able to sneak you some prey, and you’ll be out of here soon.”
