Icestorm was afraid of heights until she was dared to climb a tree. Once up there it wasn't to bad... until the branch broke. Luckily she landed on her feet . After that she knew she'd be ok even of she fell.

Cat Name: alpine (after alpine barnes)
Gender: female
Rank: sawbone
Clan: pleasance
Age: 47 months
Prompt: alpine used to be terrified of making decisions. the poor girl couldn't even pick whether she wanted a rat or an
iguana for dinner without needing somebody else help. she didn't trust her opinion to be the correct one. but as she got
older and circumstances forced her into becoming a sawbone prophet and the more decisions she had to face, forced her
out of her comfort zone and her mentor made her make more and more decisions a lot more frequently, she finally got
over her fear and she graduated to full status as a sawbone.

Cat Name: Purra
Gender: female
Rank: Warrior
Clan: Lissidom
Age: 26 moons
Prompt: Purra used be terrified of not having both eyes open or closed at the same time, when she was a kit. She was always very proud of her heterochromatic eyes, but as a prank, one of her older clanmates told her that if she closed only one eye and not the other, the eye that was open would slowly "infect" the other and change the closed eye's color to its own after a second or two.

Purra was terrified of even the thought of losing her heterochromia! She spent the next few days obsessing quietly about making sure her eyes were always in the same state.

Another heterochromatic cat in the clan took pity on her, and told her the truth.

She was furious, and got her revenge by pulling another prank.

Since then, she was no longer afraid to balefully stare at others with only a single eye after they interrupted her from her nap.

Prompt:

‘’I’m not afraid.’’ the words seemed to fall from her mouth, speaking out into the darkness. Seeing a silhouette of… a cat. Someone who threatened her, day after day, for revenge. Revenge to a cat who wasn’t responsible, an innocent one Ruining everything she ever needed.

But now… she wasn’t afraid.

The threats fell uselessly to the ground, there was no one else to lose… no threats to be made… she already lost everything, everyone who was important to her. There was nothing to lose.

She inhaled another breath. ‘’I’m not afraid of you.’’ she watched as the sky changed from dusk to dawn. Making a promise she would keep forever. ‘’And you’ll never get away from this.’’

______ used to be afraid of public-speaking and performing in front of crowds. But they forced themselves to do it and face their fear! The first time they tried, they had to run away to the dirt-place to retch because they were so afraid that they made themselves sick. But the next time wasn't as bad, and nobody even mentioned the situation. _____ was able to finish singing their song with ease, and everyone cheered them!

(I'm so sorry for the empty form, I just wanted to get my idea down!!)

Cat Name: Lilypad
Gender: Female
Rank: Warrior
Clan: FluxClan
Age: 28 moons
Prompt:
"You know ducks are supposed to be able to swim, right?"

Lilypad turned to glare at the amused expression behind her. But Flywind was unphased, and he only grinned wider at her annoyance.

“Well, it’s true.” He dipped his tail into the river, splashing water droplets over her pelt. She hissed, scrambling away from the lake’s edge.

“What are you even doing here?” She snapped, shaking what little water clung to her pelt.

“I could ask you the same thing.”

Lilypad wrinkled her nose. It was a fair question, honestly. Everyone knew she usually avoided water like a plague - which wouldn’t really be significant in of itself; plenty of cats disliked the water. It was just that her morph was… a duck. Which was hilarious to everyone, apparently. The duck afraid of water.

But it was exactly why she was here today, staring down at her own reflection for about three cycles of turning into a duck and back. Embarrassingly, Flywind splashing her fur was the closest she’d gotten to actually touching the water.

Still, none of this was any of his business.

“Just get out of here, would you?” She flicked him with her own tail, stiffly stalking back to the water’s edge to continue staring at herself, probably until it got dark out. Maybe she’d come try again tomorrow. Maybe she’d never try again at all. Who said ducks needed to swim, anyway? She’d been plenty useful to the Clan until now without it, just flying around, collecting all of those-

“HEY!”

Flywind laughed, standing above where he’d shoved her into the lake.

She flailed wildly for a moment, splashing around and (hopefully) soaking the other cat. She was going to kill him when she got out of here, he knew that she couldn’t…

Lilypad glanced down at her paws, paddling in the shallow water of the lake’s edge.

“Well, now, looks like you’re fine in the water. Just like I've always said.” Lilypad didn’t think he’d wiped that grin off his face since he’d showed up here.

“Looks like you owe me a thank you.” He offered a paw, which was soaking wet, to her slight enjoyment, in a bid to help her out of the water.

She took it.

…

But she was still going to claw his stupid face off for that.

whatever this is

Congrats! I love the character development your entry shows!

I'd also like to award RUs to LiLi041 (I thought your entry was really creative and funny!) and nindroidzane (I love the concept of a duck who doesn't like water and the art akdjfjs) !
