[id= Shimmerpelt, a greying silver-smoke she cat, lays on her side, her paw draped over an unseen ledge. She gazes at the viewer with kind amber eyes. Her toes are curled up beneath her. - Foxstride. /end ID]
She purred as Shimmerpelt nuzzled into her. "Clan is kin. Cats don't always have the same bonds as other cats. You might not have Blackclaw, but you do have me."
endlessly bound to crave approval
Sometimes it's the wrong pose. The wrong reference. The wrong technique.
And sometimes it's just the wrong day.
Never give up.
[id= Blackclaw, a large, fluffy silver smoke tom stands regally staring off to one side. His eyes are an even amber color, and one of his ears is torn across the top. - Foxstride /end id]
"You can't pick and choose which kits you look after," Dawnbright growled, turning away from him. "Of course I can," he said, bewildered. "Just tell me--" "I have nothing more to say to you."

[id= Mosspelt is a blue torbie who stands on her toes, looking up and alongside the viewer. She has a white belly, chest, and muzzle, along with four white paws. Her ears are perked and her blue eyes are wide, the pupils large. Her tail is flicking behind her. - Foxstride. /end id]
Her tail practically tucked between her legs. She'd known. But even knowing the answer didn't prepare her to actually hear it. Shimmerpelt pawed her closer, her tail wrapping firmly around her. The warmth helped settle her. "I love you," the elder said. "Thank you," Mosspaw whispered. "I love you too." It was nice to feel wanted.

"Kittypets can't be warriors! Once a kittypet, always a kittypet. We don't need another mouth to feed, and that's all he'll be!" yowled another voice. Redtail glanced at Lionheart, and the big tabby leaned down to hiss into Rusty's ear, "There are cats here who will scent your fear and use it against you. Longtail is challenging you. Are you strong enough to prove to him you can be a warrior, or will you let your fear hold you back?" Into The Wilderness, chapter five (Rusty)
[id: A chocolate-brown classic tabby cat with amber eyes. His mouth is open in a hiss. He has a long tail raised up and curling forwards.]
"Do you know when a deputy has to be chosen?" Doespring asked. "When... we need a new one?" Runningkit guessed. "Yes," she mewed. "They must be named before moonhigh of that day, so we are never without a deputy for long." "Why moonhigh?" she asked. "So a new day doesn't begin without a deputy." "What if the old leader dies at moonhigh?" Whitekit asked. Even Doespring looked stumped, turning to Deadfoot for help as Webkit added on more questions. "How long does moonhigh last?" he asked, narrowing his eyes. "Or - or what if Tallstar is sick and he misses moonhigh?" "What if the leader and the deputy die?" Runningkit asked. Deadfoot purred at their questions. "If there is a big problem, StarClan will guide us." Into The Wilderness, chapter 4 (Webkit)
[id: A black cat lays on his side. One of his forepaws is twisted up, facing inward and upward to his body. He has pale green eyes and a scar on the same foreleg at his shoulder. He has two torn ears at the tips. The cat is labelled 'Deadfoot' and the image is credited to 'foxstride'.]
"Well done, Whitekit," purred Yarrowpounce. "I think you'll be able to jump over swooping buzzards!" Pride radiated from Whitekit as she played with the feather. "What about me?" Webkit clamoured for praise. "I think you'll be the most patient hunter in all the Clan," their mother said, much to his upset. On noticing his flattening ears, she added, "That means you'll catch the most prey! Herding rabbits to a waiting ambush is the best way of catching them." He perked up. "I'm going to be the fastest WindClan cat ever," Runningkit declared. Her whiskers twitched. "Right?" "The fastest cat ever seen," agreed Yarrowpounce, blinking proudly at her kits.
Webkit purred and rolled over onto his back, getting feathers stuck in his pelt. "We're going to be the best warriors in all of WindClan!"
Into The Wilderness, chapter four (Webkit)
[ID= Labeled as Yarrowpounce, a grey cat with faint tabby stripes on her head and tail. Her face, belly, and legs are white. She has green eyes. The image is signed with the artist signature “Foxstride”. /end ID]
