#cressclaw

[residences-of-the-darkforest]

Cressclaw became mates with Birdie (his mate's affair partner) and I could have it as a fun poly situation...

but angst is better and decided that Cressclaw only did it to not look like such a fool to everyone. If the Clan thought they were always all together, then the whispering and stares would stop and they could just move on

Updates on the Cresspaw/claw situation:

He is now trans!

He found a mate in Guinness, a former kittypet

Guinness cheated on him with a loner she met at the borders, but Cressclaw never found out about it

Another former kittypet named Birdie joined the Clan. Guinness ended up cheating with them, only this time Cressclaw found out because Guinness became pregnant (she and Cress can't have bio kits)

So to recap the total situation:

--Cress's father died when he was a kit

--Cress's mother died when he was an apprentice

--Cress's mentor disliked him and he didn't feel close to anyone in the Clan

--That is, until Guinness joined and finally Cress didn't feel so alone

--Only for that mate to cheat on him and for everyone in the Clan to know
