GH Litter & Salmon Festival Discussion Thread

[Simon]

Another small hint to help you guys out:

Elliot is named after a character in a movie.

Since I've only been included in one staff litter or whatever this is, can someone update me on what's going on?
I'm very confused..
and oml the fox ones >:0000

This is similar to a staff litter! This year, the General Helpers made a litter during the month of June :') that operates very similarly to the usual staff litter. Each General Helper who took part in this made one outcome (12 outcomes total for this litter) and they've also collaborated to create a Salmon Festival event that's mainly comprised of competitions and giveaways/raffles, which can be found here. Kyar created an additional character design giveaway that can be found here

wow cool o0o
but what about all these names and hints?
whats that about?

*Squints eyes at* I can think of two Elliot's in moves from the top of my head...
Going with that, I first want to say this cat:

And maybe the color used for a previous hint will not show until it grows....
If it's the other Elliot I am thinking of,I'll lean toward this cat:

For reasons....

because of the color requirement from one of Simon's previous hint, it can not be the alien cat...

Edit: i am nearly 100% sure that is is the close eyed one, though i have been wrong before

Well, staff has always been tricky and Simon talked about their cat.
Could also mean that the peachy colour will only be used on the adult.

And I can certainly see that the alien cat might change quite a bit.

But we've also got to factor in the fact that the alien cat might be Iridisium's, regardless of whether it changes much or not

EDIT: lol I know 0 Elliots in films, so I'm no help there

I even said that in my speculation, lol:

Oooo, another cute PPS Kitty!! <3
The tongue though.

The tongue is just adorable <3

Heehee! I actually thought it was a little pink patch of fur on it's chin xD Those eyes are gorgeous <3

[Kyar]

I absolutely love tonight's PPS - the little tongue is my favorite part! It's so darn cute!

And I did promise I'd share a little story with all of you…

My name is Zalma.
You probably noticed I don't exactly fit in with other cats. They noticed too.
I knew I was adopted pretty early on. My mom was a tabby housecat and my sister looked just like her. Me… I was named after my salmon color. As I got older, I realized it made a lot of sense. I don't think even my mom realized I was a fox when she adopted me, but even for a fox, my red color wasn't exactly… "red." They still accepted me, and I love my family a lot, but it was impossible to hide the fact that… I didn't really belong.

It wasn't like I was teased that much by the other cats. They were mostly pretty nice, but every once in a while they'd have to say something—either my coat made it way too hard to play hide and seek or I was asked, "Are you sure you can eat salmon?" every time we caught fish down by the river. I know they didn't mean to hurt me, but it did. And back then, I was too afraid to say anything about it. If it weren't for my sister, I don't know if I ever would have changed.

My little sister, Ellen, was out with my friends and I on one of our fishing trips. We didn't live too far from the river so it was pretty nice to head down and catch ourselves a snack. I was a little ways off from the others, just so I could have a few moments of peace and quiet to focus. And that's when I saw it: the biggest salmon I've ever laid eyes on. I started drooling at the sight of it, I'm serious. I was so nervous, I felt my claws slip as my legs started shaking in anticipation. I waited for the perfect moment, and bit down with all the speed and accuracy I could muster. When my jaws clamped down, I couldn't have been prouder.

I pranced back to shore, shouting through my fish-filled mouth for everyone to come see. They were as shocked as I was, and if I hadn't been so excited, I don't know if it would have been so easy to prance around with such a huge fish in my jaws. I was sure that nothing was going to ruin that moment, but that's exactly when things go wrong, isn't it? "Are you sure you didn't just catch your mom?" one of the guys asked, and… let me just say, I don't think I'd ever felt worse in my whole life. I was excited, and they went and played on my insecurities again? I thought I was going to lose it and snap at him next, but… that's when my sister stepped in.

"Shut up, she's my sister and I bet you could never catch a fish that big!" Okay, so it wasn't exactly a rousing speech or a clever comeback, but… she stood up for me. And he backed down! All the sudden everyone was excited again, and there was enough salmon between mine and the other two we'd caught to have a delicious salmon dinner—although everybody tried mine and they were right in saying it was the best salmon ever. It wasn't that big of a deal, I guess, but my sister stood up for me and made me see that I could stand up for myself too. A few months later, I got my salmon tattoo to remind me to be proud of who I am. And you know what? I am proud. I love being salmon.
