I feel like there’s literally no stronger swear word than when a girl in bonnet in a movie says something like, “But Lady Snapplecap says I cannot until I come of age!” and a dude wearing pants tucked into his boots and an open shirt replies, “DAMN Lady Snapplecap!” with the force of 435 F-bombs

Okay now I need to know about some dishonor titles for the half-clan cats during Tigerclan.

I beat some of the pro-thistle law cats called the survivors that when Hawkfrost was pulling his shit.

The big thing with Dishonor Titles is that they are usually abstract. They're meant to be painful and reference a very hurtful thing the cat did. So Tigerstar has a hard time finding a good one for the Blue Twins

My first thought is:

  • Stonefur: Heartworm. A deadly parasite lodged in someone's chest.
  • Mistyfoot: Festerberry. He is saying she's like an infection, an abscess, something growing and spreading that will eventually kill the Clan

Swansong rolls up to get his like a golden retriever in line for their ear medicine, and is... pretty horrified, shocked, and even insulted to find out that suddenly, he is not considered their brother.

"Swansong. They tell me it's obvious you aren't HalfClan, as you look exactly like your honorable father Rippleclaw. Return to the crowd unburdened."

He's almost about to argue when he catches Mist-- Festerberry's expression. There's bile in his throat, but he bites it back. "You are merciful, Tigerstar."

The next two are Graystripe's kits. For them, the answer is obvious.

  • Featherpaw = Silverpaw
  • Stormpaw = Graypaw

A reminder that they killed their mother, and their father was a traitor to their Clan who couldn't even be here today. Graystripe should be answering for these crimes, but instead, only these two little brood parasites are here.

Rejection-sensitive or not, you have to accept when people say “no” and realize that people’s “no” is not about you. A boundary is never about you, it’s about that person’s sense of security. Do not make people’s personal limits a matter of targeted offence.

I was a pretty weird outcasted child so one of the greatest wonders of my adult life has been realizing that you can just go someplace and meet some people and casually make some friends, and they might not be in your life forever but you can hang out for a while, and then you can go somewhere else and do it again, and again, if it doesn’t work out no biggie, etc.

me: so..... see anything interesting lately?

the many eyed creature living in my basement: YOUR LAUNDRY IN THE WASHING MACHINE. IT WAS DONE CYCLING 4 HOURS AGO

To be a man you do NOT have to:

  • Have short hair.
  • Bind your chest.
  • Have amab body parts.
  • Grow facial hair.

To be a man you DO have to:

  • Defend your Clan, even with your life.
  • Hunt only on your own Clan's territory.
  • Feed the Elders, Queens, Kits and the sick before you or your apprentice.
  • Kill prey only to eat.

To be a man you

DO have to:Defend your Clan,

even with your life.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

im gonna get a huge wolf-like husky and give it a name like James or David or Sandra or something. Something really human sounding. And convince everyone who comes to my house that theyre just my friend who was cursed with lycanthropy.

I’m gonna renovate my guest bedroom so it looks really lived in. It’s got posters for like. Wolves and stuff on the walls. And a to do list that has stuff like “pay rent” “turn into dog” and I’m gonna put some scratch marks on the walls and the bed and a chain on the heater. And I’m gonna train the dog to sleep there so it really pulls off the whole effect. This is a really long con plan.

I discussed this idea with a classmate of mine and they pointed out that when i was looking for a room mate and said “you need to be out of the house every full moon and be okay with large dogs” they would surely assume that I was the werewolf in this mix and really this is just the beginning of my life as a weird tv sitcom.

It would be a great cover for your perspective roommate, an actual werewolf
