Prompt: go my divorce court au


"are you sure you wanna do this?" a bicolor tom questions, brow furrowed. "i mean, isn't this just another regular little argument?"

omen sighs, raising a paw to rub their eyes. "no. this is the last straw. the last pickup line i'll ever let myself suffer through." they shake their head disapprovingly at the yellow and blue cat across the courtroom. they grin in response, a little wink slipping through the gap between passersby.

"we'll be married again next week!" they whisper-shout, blowing omen a kiss.

the other's ears flatten. why did they let themself stoop down to this level again? they were a deity after all... they were better than this. but then they glance over at their soon-to-be ex and it all makes sense once again. "nobody asked, aether!" they call back.

"omen, please. distance yourself and ignore them if they're bothering you," their divorce lawyer encourages, stepping between the two and blocking their view.

a nod. "thank you, seirios."

the other nods in return. the two had spent many hours puzzling over what to do about this situation and in that time had grown rather close. seirios knew when omen simply needed a moment and when to remind them what was best for them, and this was one of the latter times.

it was then that the courtroom went silent. the doors had opened wide, making way for a tall and imposing figure to enter. the curly-haired, redheaded judge passes by the stands and up to the front of the room, taking his seat.

"order in the court or whatever." he says carelessly, waving a paw in the air. "can we like. get this over with already 🙄🙄"

"yes sir," answers seirios. "you see, your honor, my client here—"

the judge slams his mallet down hard on the mahogany, splintering where it lands into several sharp pieces of wood. "BORINGGGGG," he interrupts. "next!"

"b-but, your honor—!"

"nuh uh, nope, i don't wanna hear it," he shushes the lawyer, then points at the other across the room. "you, be more interesting."


part two coming soon...

Prompt:

Radish doesn't have an IC partner as they have no interest in romance. So these kittens are just going to be the ones that he adopts!

His siblings had all began anew, in their own ways, moving on from the deaths of their parents and those caught in the crossfire of the fight to take over the clan.
Their old ways were diminishing, with the tree sat in the center of their clans territory, slowly fading and dying away. The bright purple hues of the jacaranda tree were now grey and rotted, each leaf wrought with holes as they fell to the ground. A sign that their claimed land was dying off, just like the clan.

Fennel had moved on with her bright and beautiful she-cat partner, Siobhan, taking their kits towards the north to seek out something-anything that could give them what they needed to restore their beautiful home and tree back to its former glory. Reedtail and Buzzardtail, two cats who came in to help when the fighting started, claimed they were the only two left alive from their own clan, and the noises from the fighting led them here. It seemed, without a doubt, whatever was happening to their tree, and their land, was not just happening to them.

“I don’t know what to do, Zinnia , The clan has never faced anything like this before, and I fear if we split up too much to seek out something to cure this disease on our land, some of us might not make it back alive.”
Radish was not always the most serious of his siblings, but someone had to pick up the slack with Fennel gone and Crouton getting together a group to leave at first light.

“We should head out too, Brother, I don’t like the idea of you staying behind…not after the attempt on your life.” Zinnia would beg, pleading for him to, for once..listen to her.

“You know I can’t do that.”

- -

Staying behind was something he knew he had to do. So as he watched his clan form patrol groups and head out, he settled beneath the jacaranda tree, his mind and his heart- torn in so many directions.
Days would go by of him sitting under that tree, praying…wishing…hoping that the next time he opened his eyes those beautiful purple leaves would be shining once more in the bright morning light. They never were.

“Oh what to do…” He would talk to himself, lazily rolling over in the dirt before pulling himself up to stand beneath the tree.

A rustle, something new to this day, startled him out of his thoughts.
“Hm…?” He lifted a paw to his eyes, rubbing them of the sleep, before taking a few careful pawsteps towards the noise in the bushes on the other side of the small clearing.

“Is someone back already? It hasn’t been that lon….oh, whats this?”
He cocked his head to the side, as he watched not 1, but multiple tiny little furrballs climb themselves out of the branches, the sticks getting stuck in their furr, pulling at it.
At first he thought he was sleeping still, perhaps lost in a dream. He has not seen a thing so small since his sister had given birth to her litter, and by now they would be too far north for some of them to have wandered here. They however, looked nothing like his sisters kits. No these were someone elses..but whos?

Lowering his tail he moved across the clearing, his paws coming to a slow as he got closer to them, as to not startle them.

“Are you lost, little ones? Where are your parents?”
As soon as he spoke one of the little ones stopped, their sibling behind them bumping into their body and collapsing over.
They all then turned their attention up towards the loud booming voice, who was, not very well, trying to keep his voice quiet and calming.

“I think they died”


- -
These kitten(s) are tough, having survived their clan falling and traveling so far alone for several nights before they ended up under the same jacaranda tree as Radish. He didn’t mind kids, since he had had to deal with them with fennel at some point. However being the only adult around to take care of them was rough. He wasn’t sure how he felt about it, but he was curious…since none of them could recall exactly where they came from.

However many there are, they are from a land where magic is abundant! Somehow when the magic seeped out of the world where the clan resides bits of it overflowed and from that overflow, some things leaked out.
These cats will help bring magic back to the world, in their own ways, at their own pace. Once they realize what kind of powers they actually hold.

Prompt:

Jackdaw looks at the ground, his shoulders heaving as he growled and lashed his tail eyes wild and filled with anger. He looked up at the knights, the felines meant to answer to him. Their faces filled with discontent and fear as his eyes landed on each of them before he lifted his head fully and snarled a hiss that shook his whole body.

Spinning on his heels he shot from the room, the jewels on his tail crashing loudly with the tiled floor as his tail smacked it from his rough spin as he bolted down corridors with no apparent goal in mind. Almost crashing into another feline who jumped out of the way with a yowl.

"Jackdaw?!"

He ignored the call and kept running, ignoring the set of paws following him, ignoring the questions and ingoring the noise as he shot through an open door into the courtyard, the bellowing amber skies and arching pillars of obsidian greeting him as he skidded to a stop, body heaving for air as he half collapsed to the ground.

"Jackdaw?" The feline asked again, rounding to stand infront of him. Their ears perked and four blank ivory eyes stared down at him.

"What, do you want Toska." He hissed, ears falling back as he stumbled to stand from his unsightfull posture on the ground.

Toska paused and looked at him, tipping their head considering. "Do you want to watch the fireflies with me, they start to get active around now."

Jackdaw blinked, his ears swiviling and mind racing to check if he heard the other right, did a Lower Knight just ask him, the Prince of The Nine Rings, to watch.. Fireflies?

The other just stayed silent, watching the Prince carfully before Jackdaw blinked and nodded almost absently. "Where?"

Toska smiled and turned, "Over here, they tend to like the Fire Lillies." They chirped and motioned the Prince to follow, and follow the Prince did.

Prompt: (Prompt 3)

Just what did he get himself into this time.. That’s the question Aether has been asking himself for the past few days, carrying a bundle of moss to the nursery he thinks back through the series of events that got him here..

Aether had simply been doing his duties, that day he was assisting a fishing patrol by the river when he spotted them, adrift in the water, floating on a piece of driftwood, a litter of kits, all alone.

He leapt into action abandoning the juicy carp he had caught and deftly gliding through the water in their direction. The water tousled his fur, undoubtedly weaving tangles that he would later meticulously pull apart into their usual smoothness. For a cat to whom appearances are deemed so important, one would assume that Aether would never act on such an impulse as to jump into the river, but when innocent lives are on the line he would never hesitate for a moment.

As he reached the kits he bit into the driftwood, dragging it toward land, where the other members of the patrol were waiting. Splashing onto the shore, Aether spared not a second in checking up on the kits, before distributing them among the present cats to take back to camp post-haste.

Upon their return to camp the patrol was greeted by a slew of concerned cats, many shocked to see their deputy in such a state as he was in, but he cared not about the sandy matts that covered his body, placing the kits in the nursery, he curled around them briefly before being shooed off by the medicine cat, Luna, who correctly stated that his own sopping wet form was in fact not helping warm the kits.

Later that evening, Aether returned to the nursery, now free of sand and tangles, though still ever so slightly damp, he laid down near the kits, staring at them intently. Despite their unknown origin, he looked at them like they were stars, admiration and love in his gaze, simply taking it all in.

One of the queens noticed this and mentioned that the kits were lacking names, and well, since he reduced them and all, he could do the honor of naming them.

So he did, and every day, like clockwork, Aether showed up to the nursery, hanging out with the kits, his kits, teaching them all there was to know about the world, everything he did, everything he does, is for them.

Prompt:

the bundle of kittens was much warmer then the outside of the green house. ivory’s deep but soft purring was lulling them into a deep slumber. the snow fell quietly on the stained glass roof, ivory looked up at it longingly. the kits had grown into a healthy bunch though they were still susceptible to many illnesses, especially green cough, though that’s not what pulled at ivory’s heart strings tonight. it was the thought of their mother, they had spent the spring and summer with him in his over grown greenhouse, a short love that was ripped away from him.. with a gift left behind.

he was left with them as the last of the leaves drifted to the ground alongside the thick pine forest. they did not return from hunting that evening, he searched and searched all throughout the day though he could not be away for long. the kittens were yet to be strong enough to toddled around behind him. ivory had been beside himself for a while longer after until he went numb.

oh how his heart ached as he stared at their slumbering forms nestled deep into his side. knowing they will be missing a piece of love that he could not provide, he could still see their soft green eyes an sweet smile when he closed his eyes. he did not know what happened really, if they got trapped, if they simply abandoned the little family.. it was all so unclear. this will forever be an unknown pit in his stomach though he would love his precious gift as long as he could breath and then on. he couldn’t wait to watch them grown up.

ivory rested his head on his paws and lovingly watched the kittens toss in their sleep, he laughed softly to himself. “i wish i had a tail to cover you all, i will get more moss and feathers tomorrow.” with that he closed his eyes and dreamed with them.
