It’s the first time Ristal has ever experienced the death of someone she likes and Zarya was pretty much her favourite tribemate, so she doesn’t really know how to react. |D
It’s not really canon I guess?? but she definitely went angry. I’ve just wanted to draw something like this since Zarya’s death.
Great practice, Ristal always have such strong emotions which makes her expressions super fun to draw. uvu
RIP Zarya *sobs*
I don't know if you'll do this- but I saw Art and Paulo talking about it and... Thoughts on JerseyXKin? B)
OOC/ HEHEHEHE, I figured someone would ask.
Honestly, I’m not entirely sure! They don’t really know one another very well - Art and I are well into our first roleplay with them, but thus far, they’re just acquaintances. I s’pose we’ll just hafta see, hehe!
And on the topic of Kintsu + love, I figure I may as well share. It’s been a year since Nuri died in-game, so it stands to reason that it could be time for my guy to find someone new. But the thing is… There will always be a part of his heart that belongs to Nuri. So whoever he might end up with would have to be a really special cat, in that they would have to accept that there is only so much he has left to give. They’d have to know that they might only ever be second best, and still love him.
(I say might because you never know. Love is a mysterious thing~)
Dear Person I’m Jealous Of,I’m jealous of all those cats with their dumb powers! I’m tired of being a small weakling! How dare you go waltzing around with your fancy butt kicking powers! I want a tattoo and i want it now ! I want one of fire or shadow ! Those are so cool. I don’t think I’m jealous of one cat in particular though. Maybe Eren. He’s so smug with his stupid little curled ears. I want curled ears !! I don’t feel special like he is! Theres nothing cool about me I’m just red and i don’t look anything like Baldr or Rookson!
Eren: B-but Ally... ;0; Papa and Daddy love you a whole lot! Just coz you don't look like them doesn't mean you're not important! -pads up to her and nuzzles- I fink you're special just the way you are <3
Lully: My Rose… My little Rose.
((CRIES NOT THAT HE HAS MET HER YET SINCE HE’S CAPTURED AND ALL. I gave her a ponytail/braid without thinking that Lully has one as well….))
I added another category coz ahhhhh, I don’t know some of these
Ship with: No one omg, he’s baRELY A NEWBORN
Brotp: I insist that Kav meet all the new kittens, so possibly him and Kav :V
General opinions: Right so I’ve been on hiatus, and I missed the London birth, and had no idea who Adrian was until I looked it up on dA. He’s friggen adorable as far as I can see. Also his personality is ridiculous and so cocky, I love it. He and Kav must meet!

Karui
Character: | don’t know them | hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: I know there’s a Karui/Drake ooc thing that’s been going on, but honestly, I’d just love for her to enjoy her childhood and be a kid before getting shipped with anybody. For the future? I s’pose Drake would be cute |3
Brotp: Karui/Cassie. Sister bond for the win :’3
General opinions: I AM INCREDIBLY BIASED FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. But yes, ahhhhh, I love my baby Karui, she’s such a cutie. My heart breaks for her and her siblings, coz they had such a rough start. But Kin and Shi and Palette have been doing their best, and I think they’re OK because of that.
I just really want Karui to get happy. Her first 3 moons were just auuugh, baby noooo. Papa will always be there for you <3
—————————————————————————————————
Parsley
Character: | don’t know them | hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: Poor baby needs to get comfortable in his own skin before he tries to be with someone else <3
Brotp: Icky + all his little siblings :U
General opinions: Again, slightly biased because sibling of one of my childrenssss. Honestly, I just kinda melt when I think of how Parsley was named - by his papa, after his mum <3 The Bully family is by far the cutest, it’s ridiculous. (except maybe Kinuri. COME AT ME BRO) I almost wish I could be a bigger part of it, but Icarus is a twat so I can’t |’D
But anyway, Parsley is just such a twitchy, nervous little thing. He’s absolutely adorable and takes after Basil in looks - just like my Bully babe! I can’t wait to see how his life goes!

Ethan
Character: | don’t know them | hate them | don’t really care | like them |LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: HE IS A CHILD
Brotp: Kav will be friends with a l l o f t h e m
General opinions: Please refer to Adrian |’D
He’s a cutie! Looks like an angry little child, which is awesome, we need more jerkfaces in the Tribes. Looks like London has quite the litter on their paws xD

Taiga
Character: | don’t know them | hate them | don’t really care | like them |LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: CHILDREN
Brotp: A L L OF T H E M
General opinions: WHY YOU SEND ME ALL THESE CATS I DON’T KNOW SOBS
Ok but wow, she’s adorable! All of their designs came out so well, wowowow. A+ London, good job. Looking forward to reading all their RPs! Then maybe I can do a better rating, ahaaaa owo;
—————————————————————————————————
Cassie
Character: | don’t know them | hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: Cassie/happiness, just like her sister ;w; But uh, for le future? HMMMM… I think it’d be cute if she and any of the Cialiak boys met and ‘dated’. Not to mention the drama llamaaaa ;D
Brotp: Karui/Cassie. Sister bond for the win :’3
General opinions: AGAIN, I AM INCREDIBLY BIASED FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. Cassie looks just like her Papa, and it makes me squee with happiness. I love all the Kinuri kits, OK? YES, YOU TOO TZUNO <3 -shouts out into the wind-
Basically, everything I said for Karui. I just want things to go well for her when she moves to Water-Tribe. She deserves to have a proper, happy kithood!
Character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: I dunno… I know MikahxCoral is sort of a thing, but I’ve never been a fan. I’m going to say Shenzi, only because she’s super adorable and Mikah is such a gentleman <3 They’d be adorable! But honestly, MikahxAnyone-that-makes-him-happy is good enough for me!
Brotp: MikahxZenobia \o/
General opinions: Mikah is about the only one of your characters that I know much about owo;; So before I go further, Sonya and Malikai’s are gunna be way shorter, sorry!
ANYWAY! I’ve always liked Mikah. When I first joined the group, I went through the Tribe Gallery and picked out my favourites based on design, and I’m like 95% sure Mikah was on that list. Then I got to know him as a character, through reading his RPs and seeing art and just - I really like Mikah <3 He’s such a warm-hearted guy, he deserves some happiness in his life! And can I just say that he would the CUTEST babies.
——————————————————————————————————————————————-
Sonya
Character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: Everyone - Sonya is such a cutie~
Brotp: If Sonya and Zeke could meet up and be besties, I’d read the heckie out of those RPs.
General opinions: I don’t know Sonya as well as Mikah, but I really do like her! I love that she and Mikah are close (don’t ask me why, but when RPers have their own characters interact honestly, I just love it) and I’ve only just learned that she has a school-girl crush on Castollux which could be VERY interesting to follow! xD I like her design a lot, and even though I’m not a fan of long ‘ponytails’ on cat characters, I understand the aesthetic!
——————————————————————————————————————————————-
Malikai
Character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Ship with: I have no clue OTL I don’t really know much about him to be honest! So I s’pose I could pick someone random based on looks? Going by that, I’m gunna saaaay… Maybe Hazel from FT, or Yuki from LT?
Brotp: No clue :V
General opinions: The only thing I know about Malikai is from what I’ve read of his app since he was accepted, and what he looks like. Sorry I can’t give you more, but I really don’t know much about him.
Character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS

General opinions:
I'm still working on getting my blog updated and ready to go, but I figure I could jump on the bandwagon for this!
Please do note that my opinions do not reflect those of my characters, nor should my opinions (if they are negative) be seen as an attack on the roleplayer of a character! That being said, I'm going to be honest with this meme, fair warning.
I don't think you understand the whole point of the rating meme, it's for rating characters not criticizing them. If people want to draw hair on their characters then fine don't just sit there and say that their hair is "too much" all bluntly or just automatically assume that someone doesn't rp a character anymore because you don't see it personally. And if you seriously got a problem with someone rp a character with a mental illness correctly then I don't think you're mature enough for a group.
((I actually started typing up a pretty lengthy response to this but then I re-read your message and I realized… I didn’t actually understand what I was saying, because I didn’t get what you’re trying to say. I’m mostly hung up on the last part of the message- I think what you’re trying to say is, if I have a problem RPing(?) a character with a mental illness, I’m not mature enough to be in the group/a group in general? I’m… not sure I follow that. It’s not even really that I have a ‘problem’ with it per say, it just makes me feel uncomfortable. And, to quote Syco, ‘being uncomfortable by things doesn’t make you immature— being intolerant to other peoples’ discomforts is being immature’. Which is about all I can say on the subject since I’m having trouble deciphering your wording there.
As for the rest, I’m afraid I misunderstood. I thought ‘general opinions on the character’ meant that I should share my general opinions on the character. Actually, I thought the whole idea of the ‘rating’ thing was for people to hear the opinions of others on said character. At this point, I think probably quite a few of the characters I’ve been sent were people just listing off their least favorite character to hear me ‘bash’ them- which is sad, and kind of disheartening, since I was hoping people would actually be interested in hearing what I have to say. I’m not being intentionally mean or cruel, I’m just giving a 100% honest (if rather casually worded) summary of what I think about the character. It’s not something that should be taken as gospel, or without several handfuls of salt, it’s just what I think. And I tend to have biases as well, against cats with hair (sorry, I just don’t buy into that) or people with more than, say, 4 or 5 characters (I personally can’t keep track than more than 2 or 3 at a time, and I struggle to understand how people can hold up 6 or seven).
Briefly going back to the mental illnesses bit, I feel like I should clarify that my ‘issue’ with this is that it seems to me like people are using them without fully grasping the scope of what they’re trying to portray. There’s a lot more to these things than just having them as a personality trait, and a limit to how much Google can tell you about what it feels like to actually have whatever you’re trying to give your character- and that’s a vital thing to know when you’re trying to roleplay a character, because roleplaying involves getting inside the head of your character, not just directing their motions like a puppeteer. (That is to say, being a puppetmaster is not the role of a roleplayer.) It’s also something that should be handled with a degree of seriousness that I just don’t think something like a cat roleplay group can manage. It’s an extremely serious and controversial topic, not a toy for people to play around with. And that’s why it makes me uncomfortable to see people using it as, to all appearances, a toy. Giving their character a mental illnesss because ‘it’ll be fun [to RP]’.
That got a little more than brief, but I hope it answers your, uh… comment. If not ‘question’.))
OOC/ (just addressing one little bit of that anon message that I think needs clarification for a lot of people)
Character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
^ That’s the meme, and one of the options is ‘hate them’. So, example time!
If someone picked that, obviously they would likely explain why they hate said character. And in that explanation would be the criticisms of the character - the explanation as to why the persons dislikes the character. So the whole “you don’t understand this meme” is sort of moot; criticizing the characters, for better or worse, is exactly the point of the meme.
Florian how old are you? What do you look like? What does Eckhart look like?
Florian:
He doesn’t seem terribly impressed by the question, but with a shrug, the Grey-Shadow answers anyway. "Thus far, three Winters have come and gone during my life… As for my appearance, perhaps you ought to get your eyesight checked?" He shakes his head, an empty smile gracing his features. "Eckhardt and I both have dark pelts, though where my stripes are darker than my base coat, his are lighter. I rather think he looks a bit odd, but then, he’s never considered me the most handsome of cats either."
A dark tabby tom sits atop a fallen log, lazily drawing his tongue across his foreleg and swiping it over his ear. It’s obvious he’s not in a rush to answer the question, though eventually, he does lower his paw to quirk a brow at the stranger, his eyes narrowed. "I would think you’d be more familiar with these markings than me, Tribe-Cat." He tilts his head to the side, contemplating his answer. "I’ve never been terribly interested, to be honest. But it seems, according to the old stories, this mark on my face is that of the Shadow Spirit. What that means for me, I couldn’t tell you."
