The poll had more yes votes then no!! (Whoever did vote no, the doors that way -> 🚪)

So, to understand Winter's lore, you need to understand Winter himself, and why I created him in the first place.

Many years ago, around 2022-2023, there was this app called Amino. For those of you who don't know what that is...well, thanks for calling me old.

Amino is basically Tumblr if Tumblr was in the 2016-ish era. I don't doubt Tumblr was around then, but the overall setup just screamed "2016 fandom app." Tumblr is basically Amino if they actually bothered to update.

As some of you may know, I'm a warrior cats fan. So I obviously joined the warrior cats community in Amino. (Kind of like how you can join communities here, except you could make a different account for each one)

My mascot/main sona that I roleplayed/put myself as was Snowcloud. (Even the name brings back nostalgia. Not the good kind.)

Then I met some people, some fights went down, and eventually I kinda just...left Amino. It wasn't some grand, "I'm quitting Amino" or "time to delete Amino." I kind of just closed the app and never opened it again. I checked back on it a year later just to see how things were, and all my online "friends" seemed to have quit too. (They made it VERY clear we weren't friends) and it was way too much to see the old texts, the nostalgia overwhelmed me so I closed the app again. I was planning to stay this time, maybe write a new name for myself. But I ended up closing it and never opening it again.

Even if I did want to go back, which nowadays I don't, apparently I can't anymore.

Amino got permanently shut down in December 2025 due to public safety issues, bots, bugs, glitches, etc.

Hearing that news was a bittersweet feeling. On one hand...all those memories, erased as if they were never there. On the other, its for the best. Amino was a dangerous place, and I had no business being on there the age that I was. I'm just glad I was taught well, otherwise I don't wanna imagine what could've happened.

And before your like "Tumblr has bots and adults, what makes this different?" Oh no, believe me. The staff and communities try their best to take it down, but Amino had to shut down because of the amount of bots there were.

Now, you may be wondering, "what in the world does this have to do with Winter? Your mascot or whatever? We asked for a Winter lore drop, not a you lore drop."

Well, you see, I can't seem to let go of Amino for some weird reason. So after some crafting, the twist to Winter?

He's Snowcloud's son. After Snowcloud escaped EndClan, he fell in love and had 4 kittens, Winter being one of them. The Mother got kidnapped and a Storm washed the kittens away, but a human rescued them and sent them to another place, far away. From there, Winter and his siblings tried to survive and thrive, now living regular lives.

See how all this connects now? Now you understand not only a little of Winter's backstory, but also his origin and why I created him. He represents a more developed version of Snowcloud, someone fresh and anew, while still keeping the overall theme and vibe. It also shows that if I ever do let go of Winter and change mascots/theme, I've also let go of the past, put it behind me. But not yet, the time hasn't come.

Well, that's all for now, unless you guys want more. I don't want to bore you too much with all this reading.

Let me know if I should make a pt. 2, Winter comic, or my experience with Amino, because there's a LOT more where that came from. (To hype it up a little...one of my former Amino "friends" has tumblr. I follow her. She hasn't been active in years though, don't worry. I will also elaborate on EndClan if the votes say yes, because I didn't create it. But we'll get to that later)

Might also make a poll of it just in case. Cya, and please. Stay safe.

Me and my friend went to the park.

Let's begin with, this is the friend I made 2 posts about. The friend that likes me and has a dirty house. Now that's not the problem. The problem is today, she gave me a mask and tail to wear, so I wore them to the park. We did this previously multiple times so I thought nothing of it.

Some kid yelled from his car, "ah hell nah, f*ck*ng furry, kill yourself!" But honestly, that's pretty much the usual. It shouldn't be though.

Then my friend wanted to pretend to fight. I honestly wasn't comfortable with this, but she continued on anyway. She started shoving me, she even broke the mask, but she brushed it off saying it was a joke. I ran away from her, hoping she'd stop. But she didn't. This kid on a bike kept riding past me asking if I was ok, and said that my friend said that I talked bad about her. I told my friend to stop repeatedly, but she kept shoving me and pulling my hair, she genuinely hurt me both mentally and physically. It got so bad that this lady kept asking if I was alright, and offered me a ride home. I said no, because I didn't live around there. But obviously I pretended I did, I wasn't about to give my location to a stranger, even if she was just trying to help. And honesty I really appreciate her for that. I doubt she'll see this, but thank you.

There was a crowd of teenage boys cheering, like "fight, fight!" And "beat up the furry!" And my "friend" kept shoving me, even after I told her to stop multiple times.

Then she called the police and told me to go home. I wanted to go home since I got there anyway, so then I just went home, and proceeded to have a panic attack bcuz wtf was that.

I'm saying this to bring light to anti-furries. Sometimes, its just barking. But when something like this happens, it gets serious.

Please. If u see a furry getting bullied, please ask if they're ok and get them to safety. And if ur a anti-furry, please keep that to yourself. Furries are both mentally and physically attacked, and even if its a quote on quote "joke," its not funny. It's really not. And for the furries out there, please be careful. There are some awful people out there, and make sure that if u public gear, don't go alone. Even if you've done it a thousand times, go with a trusted group, and please assert your boundaries.

Maybe I'll delete this later, its just that I want to bring light into this and I'm rlly shooken up rn. This won't get tags bcuz I'm not being like #bullying

Please stay safe out there.

But I rlly do hope that this shows u how serious bullying can be, its not "just a joke."
