because that was fun.
Starting with Moon 101 patrols!
WE ARE BLESSED! Tricklefeather finds a kit! Splashkit joins the Clan <3 He has a huge scar down his flank but he's a survivor.
Havenstar loses a life to the broken bone.
and if last moon wasn't enough, Tricklefeather brings FIVE NEW KITS to the Clan! We are FLOODED with kittens!! Nimblekit, Valleykit, Bugkit, Jumpkit and Downykit <3 (toggling unknown second parent back OFF thank you very much)
Tricklefeather fought another dog, a bite wound not a broken bone this time. This man does not know when to quit.
Flowerflash has an infection after her kitting :(
Edward went for a long walk and came back with greencough.
Nimblekit snuck out of camp smh and poor valleykit got kittencough (which is new since I last really played, I think!)
The five gingers are Tricklefeather's, the one with a scar is Splashkit, the other four are the ones Edward and Fiercegrove adopted.
Flowerflash died from the infection after kitting GIRL NO Both Toph and Havenstar grieve. She was Toph's last surviving kit :( At least he has Bushkit and Chestnutkit. Also Toph joined the Clan at 14 moons and he's now 105. Wow.
Splashpaw is made an apprentice!
There are 11 kits and only 10 warriors (+2 healers) so hopefully one of them chooses to heal or someone's gonna have two apprentices for a few moons.
ShrubClan letting their kits do whatever they'd like.
BRO BUSHKIT is the one that figures out Leafroot murdered Quietshade. "Like he always suspected" little man this happened like, 30 moons before you were BORN what are you suspicious of???
Tricklefeather's bite infects :/
Dasik thinks the Clan might not be where he belongs. Aw babe I know you've just kind of... been here since you joined but maybe try? It's not like half the Clan isn't loners anyways.
Tricklefeather is fully healed. This man keeps tempting fate it's only a matter of time before he runs out of luck.
Quinotail got yellowcough. First moon of leafbare folks!
Fernpaw, Shinepaw, Darkpaw and Jaggedpaw are made apprentices! Edward takes Fernpaw out to watch the sunrise afterward <3
Chestnutkit fell into the river and is saved by Fiercegrove
Bushkit snuck out of camp and is sore, but the scolding didn't stick.
NO Fernpaw broke a bone when training :(
Minkheart stayed out too late and got shivering.
We find a kittypet waiting at the border that wants to join. We need more adult cats, so Havenstar lets him in. He takes the name Carolinajump and though he was a kittypet, is very clever and fits right into his role as a senior warrior.
Quinotail dies from yellowcough :/
More apprentices are made! Chestnutpaw and Bushpaw start training!
Jumpkit sneaks out of camp this time.
Also Dasik believes he's part of a prophecy. UH I should check his relationships real quick, hopefully this is just because he's mentoring Jaggedpaw, one of the paralyzed apprentices and believes it's his duty to show the world his apprentice can still be a warrior.
LMAO Havenstar is almost full green for Toph but Toph is like. Very neutral 20% on everything even dislike for Havenstar. Also Toph hates Fiercegrove? yikes.
Leafroot dislikes Fiercegrove... does she simply not like healers??? SHE ALSO DISLIKES MINKHEART it's confirmed this gal just hates doctors.
OH Tricklefeather has almost full hate for Almondleaf. Oh no. OH NO. Maybe I can get them to train together? I really wanted a mediator to come naturally ;-;
Aw poor Dasik has a crush on Edward but he's already taken. Rough. No wonder he feels like he doesn't fit in.
Almondleaf also dislikes Tricklefeather. At least it's mutual. She also very much dislikes Havenstar?
Okay and then all the kits just like their parents. That's normal.
Almondleaf confesses her feelings to Antlerstripe but was rejected. Aw, he's her best friend, but he has no romantic attraction to her at all.
Darkpaw and Bushpaw try to sneak out, but are caught. At least it's not winter anymore.
Awwww Fernpaw decides her sore joints from moving through paralysis is too much for her and decides to be a camp aide instead. She's given the name Ferntooth and promised she'll always have a place in ShimmerClan's camp. It's so odd seeing an 8 moon old cat in the elder's slot. She's so SMOL
Nimblepaw, Valleypaw, Bugpaw, Jumppaw and Downypaw are all made apprentice. Carolinajump is the one to take on two apprentices, assuring the Clan he's handled worse.
OH SHOOT no Nimblepaw and Darkpaw just die from greencough this moon. RIP them.
Still, 21 able cats! We're moving back up (even if they're all apprentices. Hopefully SOME will live to adulthood)
BRO Edward and Fiercegrove adopt more kits: Flurrykit, Driftkit and Swallowkit, and Edward stays with them in the nursery. Ferntooth is glad to help, though she's been having a rough time of it lately and her entire body is sore from the strain of moving around camp.
(all patrols are just training, so they go fast and uneventfully. Spring is a time for growth~)
Leafroot announced she's going to have kits! More! by the time they're ready, at least one batch of warriors will be available to train them
Almondleaf confesses to Antlerstripe again, but his feelings haven't changed.
Oooof I put Almondleaf and Havenstar on a patrol together and Almondleaf got BEAT UP by a kittypet. Embarassing.
Again, rejected.
Shinepaw is named Shinepelt and made a warrior! Splashpaw is also named Splashbear (=O Havenstar is MUCH better at names than Foxstar was, at least when he was older)
Jumppaw got heat exhaustion. Valleypaw is looking for a SloeClan cat on the border.
Driftkit seems to drift as he walks. Fiercegrove says the kit was born with a weak leg.
Chestnutpaw comes out as trans male! //raises shield against the Trans Curse
Dasik tried to get Jaggedpaw to climb a tree, but they were unable to manage.
MEDDY CAT QUEEN EVENT! Minkecho helps a young queen bear a huge litter. Zinniaecho was originally from SlightClan, but was kicked out when they realized the kits were half-Clan. She brings her five kits to ShimmerClan while she heals from blood loss. Wingkit, Sunnykit, Palekit, Peachkit and Scorchkit are added to the nursery. So many young cats ;-; Scorchkit is tortie too, can't wait to see what she looks like unbeaned.
And then a border patrol finds a kit! Welcome Shardkit!
AND MORE KITS! Leafroot's litter comes: Sparrowkit and Egretkit.
Jaggeddash, Chestnutwood and Bushslip are named ShimmerClan's newest warriors.
After his apprentice graduated, Carolinajump asked to be made an elder.
Peachkit was grabbed by a hawk, but FERNTOOTH saves her! The kit is injured, but because of the camp aide's bravery, has a chance to survive the encounter.
Valleypaw disappears for a few days, then comes back with a red collar. . . And fleas.
Newest batch of beans:
Peachkit, Wingkit, Scorchkit
Sunnykit, Swallowkit, Palekit,
Driftkit, Flurrykit
BRO Peachkit was almost carried off by a hawk AGAIN but Toph saves him. This kit is marked by the bird gods(as food)
Downystripe is made a warrior!
Almondleaf gets a scar from her scratch from that kittypet. it's entirely covered up by her nettle branch accessory though.
Toph and Peachkit struggle with hawk wounds, Minkheart got heat exhaustion and Leafroot and Zinniaecho are still recovering from kitting, but otherwise the Clan is healthy and safe.
Valleypaw, in addition to her collar and turning bloothirsty, is also very emo and refuses to talk about her choices to Antlerstripe, who worries about her apprentice.
Oh no, Peachkit died from his injuries :( Hawk got him.
Even Havenstar is worried about Valleypaw, but he names her Valleycone anyways and knows she'll always be first into a fight.
Now Chestnutwood is the one to disappear. He gets a black leather collar though, which is much more metal. Bet Valleycone is jealous of that. And then he immediately gets the tending to graveyard event with Minkheart.
Tricklefeather gets whitecough. I was really hoping to have him and Almondleaf do some work reducing their hatred this moon.
Oof Downystripe got bit by a fox.
Now Chestnutwood is saving Sunblotch from a hawk! So many hawks this year!
Bugspot and Jumppatch are made warriors; Flurrypaw, Driftpaw and Swallowpaw are made apprentices along with Shardpaw.
OMG another queen event for Minkheart! Jakada joins with Barkkit, Logkit and Birchkit. MORE KITS MOOOORRE
HUH that was odd. We had a ShrubClan apprentice try to join (the third? Havenstar and Roseflame too) but after we brought them to our camp... we immediately gave them back to their Clan. Hmmmm.
MORE KITS WHAT. Edward and Fiercegrove adopted three kittens: Nightkit, Condorkit and Coldkit. Their other three just barely were made apprentices, chill out!! the Clan has TWELVE KITS now.
Chestnutwood's injury grows infected. :/ Cmon king, beat that curse.
Swallowpaw is caught outside of Clan territory.
Zinniaecho finds crow feathers and gifts them to Minkheart <3
Ferntooth gets greencough
Dasik and Shardpaw are killed by rogues!! :(
Jaggeddash joins her sister as a camp aide; she knows she could be a good warrior, she's proven that to herself and the Clan, but without Dasik there to lean on, it's hard to find the motivation to push herself anymore. It doesn't help that she got an infection: a cut on the part of her that she can't feel, it took too long to realize the long scratch was even there to have it treated.
Wingpaw, Sunnypaw, and Scorchpaw are made apprentices. Palepaw decides to train to be a healer! Zinniaecho is proud of them all and glad they found a place in ShimmerClan after SlightClan abandoned them.
Tricklefeather tries to convince Barkkit to run away????? BRo???
Fiercegrove got their paw stuck in a trap and escaped with a sprain.
Chestnutwood is safe yall! His infection is gone.
Jaggeddash and Jumppatch died in a flood :( Jaggeddash did her best. (let's be honest, there's so many kits I can't distinguish Tricklefeather's litter yet)
Sparrowpaw and Egretpaw are made apprentices!
Jakada face checked a bush and got bit by a rogue. Owchie.
Leafroot announces she's having another litter!
Antlerstripe believes he's part of a prophecy. (He is, I'm trying to set him up with Almondleaf :p)
