I just realized that you're the one who has written almost all of my favorite GamTav fics. Thanks for the hours of entertainment my man, I still read The Soldier's Servant every once in a while.
oh, shit, really? that’s so cool. thank you so much! i’m glad i could provide something worthwhile for you. :D
This... is what I get for going out today. So fuck me, I guess.
Hi, y’all!
thehedgehogshavethetardis: All good! Basically, the cats’ territories are considered a casual (read: not technically official) nature reserve thanks to the unique natures of the animals and their communities. A few people are in charge of observing and making sure the cats are doing okay with as little human influence as possible. It’s actually a very helpful boost to the town’s local economy - people come in to see the weird cats and leave after having bought a ton of souvenirs. It’s an entirely local thing!
bluejay6: Oh, no, not really! All you’d have to do is come up with a nickname or just say “Whitefur of XClan”. The cats are used to prefixes coming and going in popularity, so the addition of a suffix wouldn’t bother them too much.
agathokakological-megabat: (wink wonk)
Anon #1: Well, if I was the writer, I wouldn’t make them have powers at all, just emphasized traits or skills. Lionblaze being a great fighter, Jayfeather being very insightful, etc. I’d definitely make Hollyleaf part of it, if I was to keep the powers. And if I had to keep the Dark Forest, I think I would make it more of an invisible influence - like someone hallucinates visions of evil cats telling them what to do or something similar. That or I’d just make them living cats who want the Clans dead. I do have some more thoughts on this, but I’m keeping it short for the sake of this painfully long post.
Anon #2: Aw, good, man! I’m happy to hear that. I was worried his death wouldn’t sell well, to be honest.
crowfeathertail: Firstly, thank you for the kind words and the excitement about Tigerclaw. I’m doing my best to fulfill my vision I have for him and I hope you’ll like it! Secondly, yes, Pinestar did in fact leave, but he gave no warning and ran deep into the Houses to hide from his Clan... and his responsibilities.
Anon #3: Really, the only way I could see it is if the cats receive nine lives’ worth of memories and wisdom, rather than physical startovers. This could lead to the cats living longer lives and becoming more intelligent, or perhaps buckling under the mental strain of carrying around nine cats in your head. Plus, if a leader didn’t receive those memories, that would create tension in the story as they start to make mistakes no other leader would.
littletreefox: No, I’m in full agreement with you. Even when I was younger, I felt weird about that little addition. I remember my OC leaders not having the nine lives for that reason.
Anon #4: The only real thing is that deputies and leaders tend to be more intelligent than their Clanmates! But that’s just a common coincidence rather than anything mystical.
leafiadream: Fireheart has no idea how to deal with this big mighty warrior being a pansy around humans. Greystripe hides his head in a hole and laughs.
Anons #5 and 6: I get the feeling these were sent by the same person. In any case, I did consider that, but Sandstorm’s already got a canon relationship with him, so the simpler thing was to make him ginger.
omegawulflove: Please do, and please @ me on it. I would love to see that.
ask-kagalia: Nope! Do whatever you like and start wherever you want! just @ me so I can see it, because I live for fanart.
NL Confession: I listen to him sometimes to fall asleep and when I watch the next run totally awake I have to watch the last one again to understand what he's talking about
If you do this enough, your subconscious will start picking up patterns in logic and speech that NL uses and, if you do this for one whole year every night, you can eventually have a tiny NL talking in your mind all the time
I never really went anywhere in regards to my cat's Warriors backstory because she became my fursona, but what I got was her name is Panther and she's a rogue whose kits became members of Leafclan.
