Kitty trying out for: MYO #1058
Prompt:

There's a spot just by the window saved just for him. The pillow there is his pillow- one of many numerous gifts the man has given him over the past two years.

The man works nights now. It used to be mornings, but Turkey likes this better- because he's home for longer. Turkey always goes to the window seat to wait for him. As soon as he sees the man returning, he places his paw on the glass- the man always sets his palm on the opposite side, says his name with warmth- barely audible though it is the glass- and then comes in the house.

The man used to bring him gifts when he worked mornings, but the gifts have dwindled. Not that it matters. There's more time together, more time to twine round and round his legs as he walks into the house, more time to chase the catnip stuffed sock the man throws up and around for him, and far more time to lounge on the couch by the radio, the traces of morning sun hitting where he sits just right. Surrounded by warmth- the man pressed against him on one side, and the sunbeam tracing the furs over his head on the other.

In his old home, Turkey was never allowed in the bedroom where his previous owner lived. But here, he is. The man always leaves it open for him, although Turkey never enters unless the man is there, too.

It means a lot to be trusted; it means a lot to have so much attentions given, when before there was so little.

Cat Name: Grayson
Gender: Male
Rank: Hunter
Clan: Galaxy Stables
Age: 4 years
Kitty trying out for: B#632K2
Prompt: He was lost as a very young kitten and spent what seemed like forever (not actually that many days) alone until the cats from Galaxy Stables found him and helped him. He had gotten a bit sick and had some bugs, but they healed him and he grew to love those that helped him very much. Now, he gets very sad whenever he is left alone for very long (in actuality a few hours) because it reminds him how he felt back then.

Kitty trying out for: B#718K1
Prompt: When he got to start apprenticeship under Aldro. He was allowed to try all sorts of combinations of chemicals and potions to try new ways to help the clan. He had previously gotten in trouble for doing so in his Ma's foodspace, so to have a space all his own to do so was so exciting!

Prompt: She likes to go to a quiet space near enough to where she can hear others, but not where they will bother her. She will have herself a warm cup of mint tea while snuggled in her nest. On these days, Ziggy will let her borrow his favorite plush to help comfort, and she will snuggle it while reading book of simple, peaceful times.

Gender: amab
Rank: clothier/caretaker (??? —-> the tamed)
Clan: The Forgotten Farmyard
Age: 2 yrs
Kitty trying out for: B#718K1
Prompt:

Lantern had the biggest luck that ever happened in their life! It was a starving time for Lantern and their group. The cats they loved so dearly were getting sick or weak since they disbanded from their old group. Lantern had wished and pleaded for something to feed their group. Soon enough, a passing group of strangers came around with a huge bounty of food. They looked happy and well-feed. Maybe they should suck up their pride and join them? No way, they’re going to straight up steal they’re food! They have enough of it anyways.

They and their sisters snuck up on the group, eying the group of four. only to be spotted before they could snatch their prize. Quickly defusing conflict, one of the cats issued a wish their own. Just happy to not be shredded apart at their weakened state, they and sisters listened cautiously. For exchange for food and a nice home, they wanted them to join them on their quest. Looking side to side to each of their siblings, a jolt of grief shot through them. Seeing their own ribs poke through their bodies, the gaunt look on their faces, Lantern knew what to do. Gathering up the rest of their small crew, they slowly followed the cats to their home.

Lantern’s eyes were wide open once they reached camp. It was so spacious and clean, not dirty and misshapen like their old home. Moss was growing everywhere, with mushrooms and ivy tendrils making it stand out. It felt cozy and safe! Not only did Lantern and their friends get a bunch of food, they also found a nice home as well. They were still suspicious of the easy invitation, most cats they passed were instantly aggressive after all. This new home was almost void of cats besides the four cats they bumped into. But who cares, they have a bounty now!

Everyone’s finally getting their joy back, their sisters are playing again! Everyone’s fully fed and healthy, that’s all Lantern wanted for their friends! Their old group would never get to see this! Life has been good to them since that day, their best day ever basically saved their lives!

Gender: aiab neogirl (fi/cub/scree(ch))
Rank: knight (mire coven)
Clan: The Forgotten Farmyard
Age: 4 yrs
Kitty trying out for: B#784K2
Prompt:

When Roar has a bad day, fi causes havoc in a remote part of fer home.
“Scream, screech, and howl some more! Screaming feels so good when you’re irritated beyond repair. Roar’s sick of other cats pushing them around! Claw the rocks around you! They can’t feel to score off your claws, take it out on them! Plaster the cats that pulled your tail once too many times on a stalagmite and SCRATCH their dumb faces! Stamp your paws on the stony floor, kick the wall!” All in cub’s own words. The built up rage is blown right off because of scree's outbursts. These worrying actions of cub's keep them from actually lashing out at a cat, so it totally works (so far)!

Other cats think it's an angry ghost roaming the cave systems, but nope! It’s just Roar raging it out again. Kee[ your distance from fer rampages, and you'll be sparred.

Kitty trying out for: B#784K2
Prompt:
"There is always so much to do, and so little time to do it in, and more and more the things pile up!"

Bitterflower says this, followed by a long moan. She slumps against her friend, nestling her head into his fur. Another dismal sigh- but she feels his tongue lap over her ears, and his steady calming voice replies with.

"That's life, isn't it?"

"I knoooooowwwwwwwwww that's what I'm saying, Erminestar! And I hate it so much! Do you know what Clearpoppy said to me this morning?!"

He continues to groom the top of her head as she vents. "No. Do tell."

And she goes on about Clearpoppy, and all the elderly queen's complaints. From there she moves onto Cinderwillow, and Birchpaw, and Leafstrike, down the list she goes, until she has a complaint about everyone.

None about Erminestar. He begins to purr halfway through her story- a comforting rumble. Her contained complaints lower in intensity; her angry fire is extinguishing.

".... Feeling better now, Flower?"

Bitterflower sighs- dismal and dramatic as ever. But she is feeling better.

"Yes. Yes... thank heavens you're here to listen, Ermine."

Gender: Female
Rank: Hunter
Clan: Here
Age: 25 Moons
Kitty trying out for: B#784K2
Prompt:

Koi has an unspoken, predictable multistep process when she is upset. First she goes for a walk, weather permitting, and during that time she is best left alone to her thoughts. Then she goes looking for a task, something to do or someone to help. If she’s helping someone she prefers small talk, not anything with too much weight. Only at the end of the day does she settle in next to her closest friends, and if she’s still feeling upset she talks to them about it, asking either for advice, comfort, or even just ears to listen.

Scrolling
Scrolling
Just another day scrolling through social media. It’s not like she had anything better to do.

An email notification, what is it this time? More spam? Better check…

Oh it’s a response from one of the hundred of job applications she sent out. Probably another rejection, but it’s always proper form to check.

Oh, it’s one of the ones that actually interviewed her. And it’s a- “HOLY SCHNOZ!!!“ They actually said yes?!?

“Keep it down in there! I’m trying to study!” Her roommate’s voice echoes from the other room. But she’s too elated to care! She has a job!!! She’ll be able to earn money! To pay the rent! To pay off her debts!!

What an incredible day, nothing will ever beat that rush of joy. Finding out you actually have a shot at a future! Someone actually WANTING her!

And nothing could ever taint that memory- not even months later… when she finds herself the personal handmaiden of an evil corporate supervillain- being paid minimum wage to be at their beck and call… it’s, well she was still really happy when she first read that email!

Gender: dmab, he/him

Clan: https://toyhou.se/nektar/characters/folder:5147684
Age: 43 moons
Kitty trying out for: B#784K2
Prompt:

the last pot he had fired had been a complete bust, literally, it had exploded and also broke all the other pots he was firing. his curled tail sat limp on the dusty ground behind him. the fire under the kiln was now a pile of fading embers, and he was still in shock. suddenly he stood up and stalked off, quickly slipping down the marble ruble that surrounded his ceramic sanctuary. his red and black fur disappearing into the dense underbrush that surrounded this area, he dipped into a moss covered hole in the ground, swallowed up by the darkness he padded on with full confidence. his paws leading him quickly forward. the tunnel was just big enough to walk with his ears grazing the top and the edges of his pelt brushing past the cold stone walls.

the tightness of the path did not faze twistedclaw as he walked on in silence. finally he could hear the comforting sounds of home, the clanking of the braziers being refilled with leaves and branches that the apprentices were grabbing from the pile that was collected by all. he purred as the warm light of a fire greeted him just at the tunnel widened and entered the cenote sanctuary, the sky seen through the gap in the ceiling showcased the darkening sky. he drank in the sweet scents of home, warm and welcoming. the tom padded past the hunters den, he could hear mossthorn recounting a story from her most recent hunting patrol he could hear the exasperated mews from goldflame and duckfluff. the older artisan’s whiskers twitched with amusement as he continued through the camp, weaving past hickorypaw and maplepaw was the scrabbles by, kicking up sand from the stoney floor under them. they were headed for the eastern tunnels, their mentors, horizonfire and shallowpool weren’t far behind them. twistedclaw dipped his head respectfully to them as he passed by.

the squeal of a kit caught his attention, he pricked his ears towards the nursery which lay towards the back of the cavern. he could see little shapes wriggling around in the cover of the hanging moss, he noticed sunfur laying lazily with their brother laurelscar as he groomed her head and shoulders. he couldn’t help but admire the tenderness the two littermates shared. this reminded him of his own kin, methodically he looked around the sanctuary. catching the familiar pelt of pampascharm, the tom lifted his head seeing the tom was grabbing two rather plump mice from the fresh kill pile he instantly knew on was for him. with a refreshed fire in his heart he bounded over to the cream and white tom. they touched noses before finding a quiet spot where they could watch the clan while sharing tongues.
