Willow Tail || #34

Page drawn courtesy of @spottedsnap​ because it was taking me forever to finish the previous page and wanted to jump ahead by having one person work on this one and myself work on the next. Thanks!

Quotes: “She left you! She left you to die” --Mallow

“It’s alright. I’m fine now.” -- Leapingdusk

Mallowfur looks at his dad, Willowtail, because after his mother died, he blamed his father. Mallowfur (paw at the time) couldn’t understand why Starclan would let someone as kind and loving as his mother slowly die for moons. Someone had had to have something to do with it.

He thought his father was to blame because Willowtail became distance after Leapingdusk started to become especially sick. He really did it because he couldn’t handle the grief and wanted to distance himself from Leapingdusk and their kits, but Mallow thought that he was heartless.

It didn’t help that the day Willowtail was overcome by guilt and finally visited Leapingdusk was the same day that she would later die.

He already forgave Willow and they both had a big heart-to-heart, but seeing his mother die and seeing who was really responsible would probably make the pair have some sort of interaction.

Willowtail’s dipping his head, kinda in a way to tell him that it’s okay

Here's a little sneak peek of the animatic I'm working on about my ocs: Willowtail and Sabbatia! (bonus other random cats, Hazelpelt and Nightstream)

It's been a long, long time since I made my last animatic, but it's the first time I've tried to make a full-length one and about my original beans. (I'm super excited to have this complete soon!)

Super frickin sick

When you’re sad about a child dying and then remember that you’re about to die too

(He’s asking if he regrets trying to save the kit, even though it only ended up with him dying as well / if he would try it again, knowing the likely outcome).

---------------------------

Halflight= friend, trained alongside Mallowfur’s first apprentice.

Thorneyes= friend, apprenticed alongside him, but was a tad younger.

Scaleears= sister, ran away to Shadowclan.

Briskpaw= second apprentice.

Leapingdusk= mother

Willowtail= father (didn’t do the best job).

Also the two from the previous page were:

Blightstar (orange)= mentor and former leader.

Firejay= mate

I am starting to feel bad for not doing the last word stuff, but it takes a surprising amount of work, and I really need to focus on school right now. The comic is so that I’m at least posting SOMETHING
