Sorry guys, but I have to delay the code drop Dx
We're leaving for a week or so long trip on either the 17th or 19th. But the thing is, me and my entire family are sick. If we're not better by the 19th and we postpone our trip, the code drop will be held whenever I feel up to it. If we do still go on the trip though, the code drop will either be posted while we're there, or once we get back (around the 26th).

Basic Info:

Username:
YOLOgirl4233

Name:
Bumble

Kennel Number:
6

Species:
Black Bear

Gender:
Female

Age:
Bumble is 11 years old and most black bears live only 10 years due to poaching and human interaction. In other words, she has lived a good, long life

Personality:
Bumble is sweet and kind. She loves to take care of others and has had several cubs herself. Because of her past experiences though she hadn't had a lot of trust. First after her mother leaving her, then being attacked by Julia, and finally seeing Rocky be attacked. (For these stories visit the Use and Story Section) Eventually though she realized how important others are to her. Sure, you couldn't trust all the other animals but she still had her selected brew. These she loved and cherished for ever. And even fighting for sometimes.


Use and Story:

Use:
Remember when I stated,"most black bears live only 10 years due to poaching and human interaction?" Im asking this question because this is the main reason I would like to adopt Bumble. I have been bringing the awareness to poaching of bears to many schools. The only problem is, art. I would love to draw my own bear but I don't have time and honestly, I just can't draw bears. I also can request someone else to because bears are such unusual creatures. Bumble would solve all of this and I would love to have her as my mascot. (With owners permission, of course) Like Smokey Bear, I would love to use her to educate others on this major problem. This isn't the only reason though. I would also love to use her as a role-play character since she is so unique. I have a female Oc that reminds me so much of her and I think Bumble would be a wonderful animal version of her. Bear ship-shifting would be an awesome ability to have. All in all, I would defiantly try to use Bumble as much as possible.

*Introduction to Bumble*
It was another day for Bumble in her cave. She woke up, checked that her cub was still there, and smiled. She knew she has lived for awhile and had a good number of cubs. She loved her children, Roan, Chirp, and Aggie. She was defiantly ready for some relaxation.

*The Word Retirement*
The first time she thought of this is when she was walking down the creek and heard a conversion spoken in an unknown language. She quickly climbed a tree and listened. She didn't understand many of the words but she happy and tired. Why, she felt those everyday. Then another word was spoken afterwards; retirement. This word for some reason intrigued her and she continued to listen. Again she heard the word retirement but then happy was used to describe it. "I want this retirement" Bumble thought,"If it makes them so happy then I most have it" She carefully slipped down and ran away from the strange creatures. The rest of the day she spent asking other creatures of this word. She finally got an answer from wise raccoon, for he was around the strange humans a lot. Apparently Retirement was when an animal was done and just wanted to relax and not have to work as hard anymore. After that day she learned what she looked forward to.

*The Big Bully*
When Bumble was younger, her Mama loved to tell her stories. Bumble loved these times as well. Mama was one day telling her a story of squirrels and skunks (Bumble can't really recall the story but these were her favorites) when they heard a huge, terrifying roar. Mama immediately stopped and listen, with a nervous look on her face. All of a sudden she grabbed Bumble and threw her onto her back. Then we started flying through the forest. Mama was running so fast that at least thats what it felt like. She didn't stop until we arrived at the upper part of the creek. I slowly slid off her back, dizzy from the run. I plopped down on the ground and looked at her, expecting an answer. Mama shook her head though and said,"We can't stop here" I stared at her as she walked away before I shook out my fur and followed her. Finally we seemed to have reached a good enough Mama. I looked at her wondering if I could rest and finally sleep. She looked back at me and nodded,"You may rest now, little one" I fell asleep the moment I laid down. A coupled hours later I woke up alone. I jumped up and ran around poking for Mama. Yet despite how hard I looked I couldn't seem to find her at all. Finally, I came across a helpful chipmunk, who told me she went in the direction of the roar. That was the last time Bumble ever saw Mama.

*The Handsome Stranger*
Today would be an exciting day for Bumble. It was officially the first day of breeding season. She was 4 and was finally ready to breed. She was soooo nervous! What if no one wants her?! In the past couple years it was always the same story. Julia, the prettiest female, got all the good males. Leaving everyone else scrambling. The next couple of days she saw tons of bears! Sometimes she barely sees a couple bears every month. This week alone though, she has already seen several. Nobody seemed to catch her eyes. Then she saw him. A huge, lumbering bear. He looked strong, well-groomed, and was as black as night. Bumble watched the huge bear, then went up to make her move. Only to be shoved aside by Julia though! Bumble felt her heart break, watching them talking. She waited for them to walk away together, only to see the mysterious bear walk pass Julia. Her heart started to beat faster and faster as he got closer. "Hi," he said smiling, "Want to go for a walk?" She nodded, shell-shocked he rejected Julia. The next few days, Bumble felt she was in heaven. The stranger wasn't mean, rushing, and just liked being with her! He still refused to tell her his name though. Finally, breeding season was over and the stranger left.

*Those Who Come Back*
It was another exciting day for Bumble! It was her second breeding season and she was wondering if she would see her handsome stranger. She knew, sadly, that he wouldn't chose her again. After all, black bears don't mate for life. She walked towards the center of the forest, where there was a clearing. She normally went here whenever she needed to think. She walked into the clearing and roared when she saw someone there. She got ready to fight for her turf and then gasped when the creature turned around. It was the handsome stranger! "Hey Bumble!" he laughed,"I was just looking for you!" "Yo-You were?" Bumble replied, completely confused. "Do you want to take a walk?" She gasped as she realized what he was asking. He wanted to be with her again! The next few days she was in heaven again. Then Julia butted in. Bumble saw Julia watching her sometimes, angered that she got rejected. This made Bumble very nervous, knowing Julia wanted revenge. It was the day after the stranger left when she got shoved down by someone. She quickly rolled to her side and looked unto see who attacked her. She was staring right into the face of Julia. "What do you want?" Bumble growled, pacing around her. "What do I want?" Julia mocked,"I want back what I deserve!" Julia slashed her paw across Bumbles face. Bumble roared as blood poured into her eyes. When she finally cleared her eyes, she saw that Julia was gone.

*Loyalty is Key*
Bumble cried as she realized what day it was. Today was the start of her third breeding season. The only problem was, her scar. After Julia attacked her, she scratched her face. This left marks and even though they would eventually heal, they weren't going to get her any points with the boys this time. Nobody would want her. She cried more, determined not to show her face. Then she heard the calls. She quickly rubbed her face and ran in the direction of the commotion. She looked around, trying to find her stranger. At one point she saw a handsome, strong bear but then he disappeared. She finally got up to the bear she had just seen, but when she turned around, she gasped. He was a different bear! She backtracked into the woods again, embarrassed. As she was walking away she heard a familiar roar. She gasped and ran towards it. As she got closer though, she was confused. This bear wasn't handsome and looked like her was going to fall any minute. "Hello?" she called, uncertain. "Hey" the bear replied. It was him! "What happened!" she cried when he turned around to face her. He growled and replied,"That youngster back there. He saw me and attacked. He got my off guard and I was torn" Bumble whimpered and started licking his wounds, sadden greatly by what she saw. "You don't have to tale care of me" he replied,"Go find another handsome boy" She flinched and swung around."Would you like to go for a walk!" She blurted. He looked at her surprised. "I like you!" Bumble continued,"You're funny and caring. Who cares if you have a handsome face or not? Well I don't" He looked at her more and then laughed. "Please! Call me Rocky!" he replied. Bumble smiled and they walked off together again.

Extras:

Likes:
~Her family. She never realized how hard it was to take care of it, making it even more important to her
~Honey. Because what bear doesn't like honey?
~Berries. Bears are omnivorous meaning they eat meat or plants. Bumble prefers plants though because she friends with many of the animals. So she eats berries and honey.
~Treasures. Bumble is a very resourceful bear so she loves it when she find old things. Like an old boot she found once. she made a vase out of it

Dislikes:
~Bees. They always sting her!
~Julia. She was fine at first before she attacked her.

Username: leeland. // mordecai.
Kennel Number: 106
Species and/or Breed: Cat
Use: Art + Roleplays<3
Name: Relay
Nickname: Ree the Goof
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown
Personality: Casper is always the quiet one, he would rather listen than speak. That way he always knows everything. He is very introverted, but when you meet him he'd eventually warm up. His worst personality trait is probably that he's a bad liar, and that's no-good. Whenever someone asks him something, instead of an honest opinion he tries to say something else so they wouldn't get hurt. That never works. He has a lot of internal conflict, he is also very undecided and spends a lot of time debating things. When he starts being friendly some of his friends call him Ree the Goof because of how silly he acts.
History: The paint on him is rather translucent and actually it's not paint at all. It's more like lube except it's alien-made, that way he slips around a lot. He's one of the alien hybrids, his mom came on a ship from another planet. No one really teases him about it, it's more like he's an immigrant and everyone wants to know how it's like to have an alien as a mother. "She's a bit crazy, I can tell you that." He often says and walks away, not wanting to cause too much attention towards her. His dad's quite normal though, he spends a lot of time at work and Relay doesn't see him as much.
