Cat Name + ID: Foxberry + S-020
Calling: Wanderer
What secret will they share? He was originally staying with the fox family to help them survive the season, and he misses them often. The fox that had gotten hurt was because of Foxberry getting too excited and overzealous with showing the pup a strange rock structure in the forest.
What secret will they keep? He's glad to not be staying with the fox family anymore, and feels a sense of freedom again from it




Thea and Foxberry laid in the grass, taking a moment to relax while the rest of the group found snacks. Thea rested their head on their paws, sneakily watching Foxberry stare at the grass too hard. He had needed a moment to process his secrets, thoughts whirling as he studied the plants in front of him.

"I was staying with that fox family for awhile by the time you came around." He spoke softly, looking up at Thea finally. "I was helping them, hunting, gathering herbs for them. I hadn't been at one place that long in... I don't know how long."

Thea nodded their head, thinking back to when the two met. "I remember, you looked very... cozy there."

"One of them had been really hurt. It was my fault, I guess." Foxberry shuffled his paws nervously. "They had a little pup, who wanted to see the rest of the forest so bad. I remember how it felt when I first wanted to, just, explore forever. I was telling him of a rock structure I found a little ways out- I thought he was ready to go out. His parents didn't. I snuck out with him and..." Foxberry looked a little embarrassed as he told the story.

"It's okay- was the pup okay?"

"He broke his little paw, pretty quickly into it. It just took him so long to heal and winter started to come in. I felt so bad. I feel bad still." Foxberry sighed. "So I stayed with them for awhile, just to help them take care of him and get them extra food. It wasn't so horrible. I miss them still."

Thea smiled, looking up at Foxberry from their resting spot. "I'm glad to have found you when I did then."

Foxberry smiled back, thankful for his friend. Their friends returned at that moment, prompting Thea to rise and quickly move to help them with the overflowing tray of snacks. When they were out of earshot, he whispered to himself, "I'm glad I don't have to help them anymore. I'm glad to be exploring again."

‎The Archfey is pleased...
"Asking one to answer questions as if they were me, and to my preferences, is certainly unfair. Especially when there was ten to choose from. None of you were able to answer them all correctly, but neither had I made it easy for you.
You have done well. "

Cat Name + ID: Aster + C04-002
Calling: Wanderer
What secret will they share? The reason he loves the night sky so much.
What secret will they keep? He truly believes that he was descended from the stars, and the reason he wanders is to one day find where he came from.




As the sky starts to darken and the first stars glimmer above the festival, Aster leads his friends to a secluded area to look at them together. The trio settle down, and Saccharine gives Aster a friendly nudge with a bright smile. "You know, since you had so much fun apple bobbing you should do another tradition! I've always wondered why you're so fascinated with the night sky, so now is the best time to finally spill your secret with us!"

Aster's eyes light up with excitement even as a faint blush of embarrassment reddens his face. "Ah, 'Secret-Saying' does sound fun... Alright then, listen closely and I'll gladly tell you." Saccharine's ears perk up and Specter scoots a little closer as they wait with bated breath for his next words.

"Hmm, it's hard to put into words... I suppose the easiest way to explain it is to say that looking at the stars feels like coming home to me. It's always so beautiful, I feel relaxed and content every time I watch them. It fills me with peace knowing that no matter what happens, the stars will always be waiting for us at the end of the day..."

Saccharine and Specter share an amused glance with each other before nodding and murmuring their agreement. They all continue to stargaze together, and Aster whispers a final statement only audible to his own ears.

"Maybe one day, we'll find the star I fell from..."

Calling: Leader
What secret will they share? "I stole the last cherry tart from the kitchen when I was younger."
What secret will they keep? "I've always fancied Willow."




[304 words]
"I was the one who stole and ate the last cherry tart from the kitchen." Flea hung his ears in shame as he revealed the secret that had been weighing on him since he was little. "Not just the last one either, but the whole tray of them. Sadly, it led to one of the bakers being fired. I was too scared to speak up and tell the truth. Now it is time I reveal the tale and unburden myself of this shame."

"The chefs were preparing a feast for the upcoming holiday feast. Catshee from all around Avalon were invited. There would be dancing, feasting, chatting, and even a fun play performed by a roaming band of entertainers. It was a joyous time. Earlier that day, the staff was busy cleaning the house and setting up the decorations. There were so many good smells coming from the kitchen because the cooks and bakers had been working since dawn to get everything prepared. The slow-roasted hickory-smoked finch was what would take the longest. Being a small and very agile cat, I snuck my way down there without much notice. I took a few pawfuls of some of the savory dishes, just enough for a taste without being in the way, or without the staff noticing. It was then that I noticed the tray of cherry tarts. They gleamed under the overhead lights, calling to me. I looked around, making sure no other cat was paying attention. Then, I dashed out from under the table and swiped all of the tarts into a sack in one scoop, and ran off back to my room. I spent the next few hours stuffing my face with all the goodness of the treat. I don't remember much about the rest of the evening besides a terrible stomach ache."

Cat Name + ID: Alice {B015-4}
Calling: Farmer
What secret will they share? Despite being a farmer and knowing a lot about plants (especially mushrooms) Alice still has a little guide book she takes with her to double check if something’s safe when she’s looking for sprouts or seeds.
What secret will they keep? Alice is worried her house is haunted. Her things get moved and she hears noises at night some times. She is genuinely starting to think she’s not the only occupant of her house.




{242 words}
Alice tail tip twitched nervously, a small movement that betrayed her otherwise still form. Sharing secrets and keeping them were not something she was used too. She lived alone… or was supposed to. Alice thinks her house is haunted. Because she knows it’s not her moving about at night, nor reorganizing her supplies when she forgets to clean up after making things, like baked goods, dried mushrooms, other things with her crops, and crafts like flower crowns or arrangements. She was sitting in a circle with a bunch of other fae cats she didn’t know, all sharing little non personal secrets. When her turn came around she sat up straighter and spoke in as loud and calm a voice she could, “My secret isn’t anything big, but despite being a farmer and plants being my livelihood, I still keep a little guide book with me when I go out so I know if a plant is safe or not.” She made no mention of the possibility of her house being haunted, and politely listened to the other Catshee’s secrets as they shared them. Once the last cat had shared, the circle broke and everyone went on their way. However as Alice was walking to get a snack, she saw a flicker of light and movement out of the corner of her eye. But when she turned to get a better look whatever the light and movement had come from was already gone.

Festivity Reward [Secret-Saying]

The ever-present, well, presence of the Archfey felt almost like it was encouraging along the telling and keeping of secrets. No doubt the Secret Keeper themself was having a great time. Some even got to tell the Archfey their secrets directly, and those who would rather lie than tell a true secret may need to tread carefully for a while, lest they have bad luck.

To share companionship around the bonfires, catshee gather to combine some of their favorite things—luck of the draw, and good food! In a game known in Avalon as simply “acorn bread”, bakers present barmbrack to parties of cats, allowing them to split the bread evenly. Catshee must be careful while eating this bread, as hidden inside is an acorn.

Cat Name + ID: Redford + B013-1
Calling: Leader




Redford, being the leader he is, usually helps set up festivals and then doesn't go to make sure everyone is safe by protecting the surrounding areas. But a few of his fellow band of catshees has decided to take over guarding the area to let him have a chance to enjoy his first festival. He's nervous but mostly excited because he gets to enjoy it this time! He noticed one area has some bread and they said that someone will find an acorn inside of it. He's curious why it has to be an acorn even and how bad for his tooth with the way his luck is already going these past few years... But he's willing to risk it to join in on the fun with everyone else and have a good time no matter the consequences. He had enjoyed seeing Okoye at the apple bob even, seeing her trying to grab an apple while mostly catching water hah
