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.

Prompt: #3 (330) (adoptive parents: Bright; Blaze)

While traveling, before she had ever even heard of Marsh Clan, Bright met the one and only Bookworm. A very curious cat with a unique flare for storytelling that seemed determined to see and detail the world. They talked, they danced, and that was that. They parted ways shortly after meeting and Bright never expected to see them again. However, shortly after her introduction to Marsh Clan but prior to her joining, out of nowhere Bookworm appeared and dropped off the kits. She and Bookworm hadn’t been that close, and they didn’t look anything like her either, but she couldn’t just leave them behind. And so they were hers, with the only place she knew to take them to being Marsh Clan. Miraculously, they welcomed her and them with so much kindness and grace. Not even expecting them to stay, everyone pitched in to help with the kits just for the sake of it. Ultimately, it was this response of the clan members to the kittens that cemented Bright’s decision to join.

Without the kittens, Bright may very well have left the same way that she came, never having believed before that cats could come together as a community that genuinely cares for one another. While she had already been fond of Blaze when they first met, even his presence within the clan hadn’t originally been enough to convince her to stay. But the compassion they all had for a stranger like her convinced her that she had been mistaken and that there was something special within Marsh Clan that she wanted her and the kittens, her kittens, to be part of. To be fair, it wasn’t all so easy as the kittens did miss Bookworm initially and even as they forgot things about them they still longed to know their true origins. But they slowly took to the new home, adoring Bright even from the beginning and eventually claiming Bright and Blaze as their true parents in their hearts.

Prompt: A blue thread, intertwining over itself and glowing, floated before Nona. The flow of time, and the grasp of fate that eventually lead all those whom needed it to the Heart of Decay. Something in her gaze faltered, and Gala, whom was sitting across from her, caught on.

"Nona? Why do you seem to be pondering something?" Gala asked, her voice speckled with the slightest bit of worry. Her partner was confident - always knew exactly when a soul needed help - rejuvenation even, within the Heart. After a moment, Nona sighed.

"The nuances of personal relationships puzzle me. All I have ever known is the stars, and the inevitable path that cats will eventually take. It is... unchangeable, for the most part. I just wish I had a better understanding of these mortals. I know I help them but... I'm not as aware of their emotions as I'd like to be." Nona grimaced.

"And what has gotten your mind on this path?"

"It's... embarrassing." Nona grumbled.

"Nona."

"Fine! Ever since Envy and her family disappeared, the cats have been on edge - it's... hard to guide cats to a clan in such disarray at times. There aren't any kits either right now. It feels like my purpose has dwindled."

"Then let's have our own family. Send them to the Heart of Decay, and have them live through these emotions. We can see firsthand how the cats are feeling, without imposing our power over them." Gala suggested, though silently the tips of her ears grew hot at the idea, the molly silently flustered.

"Are you sure, Gala?" Nona asked. "That's an extreme approach to understand these cats."

"We can live forever, them... not so much. The more we can do to help them in their hour of struggle, the better. That and I love the idea of having a family with you. It does get boring here, at times." She said with a gentle smile.

Prompt:


the earthy aroma of espresso wafts through the air, accompanied by the twin hums of soft tunes and chitter chatter. the atmosphere was nice, here in this little side-street cafe. but nothing was nicer than teasing others, and that was their main mission today.

aetherstar lets out a drawn out sigh, dramatically emphasizing feigned distress. the other looks on, agitated, whiskers twitching furiously and eyes darting about to everything that moves.

"aether? bear.. berry..?" a barista calls, pushing two cups forward onto the pick-up counter. bearberry leaps up in an anxious whirlwind. "... i'll get it!" she says, rushing over. how endearing. she was clearly very nervous about being here, aether observes. 😏 must've heard high praise of me, huh?

she returns after a moment, a jittery smile plastered on her face as she places a warm cup in front of them. beneath their name, it reads 'warm venti pumpkin spice latte, almond milk, 8 shots espresso, 1 pump maple pecan sauce, 7 pumps pumpkin sauce, light caramel drizzle, light foam, extra vanilla powder, light whip cream, extra pumpkin topping, autumn sugar sprinkle, pinch of salt.' no this is not starbucks it's some random little cafe but they for some reason ripped off their entire probably copyrighted coffee system. don't even question it bro 🤷

they take a sip, foam condensing in a clouded line above their lip. "mmm, just the way i like it." their gaze lifts to bearberry, whose eyes are closed, savoring her simple hot chai tea. "would you like to try?"

her eyes flick open in surprise, face flushing a little (like the flushed emoji) (😳). "what, didn't expect me to be so gentlemanly?" they chuckle, offering the drink to her. she takes a sip of her own, an expression of blissful wonder crossing her face for a brief moment.

"w-wow, i wasn't expecting it t-to be so..." she murmurs.

aether hums gleefully. "perfect for fall, isn't it?" all they receive in return is a small nod... and then the table falls back into silence.

well, might as well get to the point.

"so 🙈" they start, reaching out to place a hand atop the other's. "what are we?"

bearberry coughs up her chai tea that she'd just drank from, nearly spitting it out all over the table and their connected hands. "wh-what?! 😨😨"

"relax, i'm just teasing!" aether laughs. "though i mean..." they trail off, humor glimmering in their gay eyes. "but seriously though, like, our partners have had an entire litter of tiny-little-baby-godlings-that-are-somehow-unrelated-and-full-of-lore together, and then there's us. where do we fall into this whole big thing?"

bearberry's brow furrows, whiskers askew. "y-yeah, i guess you're right. i'd n-never thought of it that way..."

"yeah, and just because we got a divorce doesn't mean i'm not entitled to some kind of compensation—" they begin to mutter, cutting themself off in a hurry before they can finish. "uh, i mean. i'm just confused as to where that leaves us, y'know? are we really just members of the our rizz accidentally made a god fall in love with us club and nothing more? we could always get a little... payback in 😏 if you know what i'm sayin' 😏😏"

a sheen of rose-red tints her face as she glances off to the side in contemplation. "what a-are you saying..?"

aether grins. "glad you asked!" they slide out of their seat and step over to the other side of the table, dripping with unbridled confidence and pure passion. bearberry shrinks a little in her chair.

"w-wh— 😳"

they don't let her finish that sentence.

Prompt: Write/draw** about the parent(s)* discussing / thinking about their future kittens.
Appletwist curled around the tiny bundles of fur that she loved so dearly. Her heart swelled as she thought of their life together… She’d heard that there was a land safe from dingoes and demons, she’d travelled far to build a good life for her kits, she just desperately hoped that this land was real… She didn't care if she had to live alone as a rogue, anything was better than the dingo riddled landscape she was running from… Tonight she could feel it, their future was bright.

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 moment 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: (302 words)

What if I was born into a place barely stable enough to stand and I grow up watching it crumble around me and you were there. And you were just. There. And I don't know how you're able to stand so tall despite everything but I want to be like you. Something in me resents how much you're everything I could never be, the way you make me hate how I'm so me, but when I'm with you, you make me feel like it's worth it to fight to be better. You make me accept that some things are worth fighting for. That some things aren't. What if you helped me discover who I am in a world that barely gives me room to breathe, let alone grow. And what if we kissed about it.

Rustycurl born into the clan around the time just before the end of arc one, growing up surrounded by the clan being shaken from the need to accommodate and incorporate the former humans, as well as now on extra high alert due to the dangers it proved lurked just around the corner. Queens less willing to let their kits leave the nest, apprentices on higher lockdown, even some of the warriors treated with a sense of uncertainty, as if any of them could be the next tale of evil. He had his own struggles going on. In comparison to the rest of the clan, it felt.... Insignificant. But that was when he met Fizzy- a cat unaffiliated with the clans, who he grew closer with as they spent time together. He was jealous of her, and yet at the same time, admired everything about her. With her encouragement and support, he was able to discover his own self worth and find a life he wanted to live.
