👉👈 may I ask for Sweetstalk and Hawkwasp facts???

hiiii yes.

sweetstalk is a real nervous cat, kinda fluttershy-like in nature. she's really gentle, and she hates the act of killing prey so she typically stays in the barn doing jobs for others, usually helping briskwater or any current queens. she is mates with mudstripe but they're kinda lowkey, more like girlfriend/boyfriend than how mates typically = married.

hawkwasp is hollowspur + briskwater's sibling, from the same litter as brisk. they are abrasive, rude and accusatory, but weren't always so nasty. they do not get along with briskwater and have not spoken to him in years, and they actively hate hollowspur. i intend to do either a mini comic or a short story about hollowspur's backstory someday that delves into this but im very tired. additionally, hawkwasp used to be mates with Willowstar, but they (W) dumped them (H) after the same event that made briskwater cut contact with them.

CAN YOU TALK ABOUT HAWKWASP I LOVE THEM SOOO MUCH

YES i love hawkwasp they're impossible

Hawkwasp is Hollowspur and Briskwater's sibling, from the same litter as Brisk! they don't have much of a relationship with their siblings however because they took their parent's death pretty hard while Briskwater internalized it and put on a brave face due to their job as Healer and Hollowspur appeared to have bounced back pretty quickly, so they harbor a little bit of resentment towards them (the sibs) for "not caring" they also have always felt a little left out because before hollowspur was born, brisk and hawk weren't that close and then hollowkit is born and suddenly Briskwater wants to be a doting older brother. additionally, they don't really get involved with or understand hollow and brisk's back and forth banter, and to them it seems like the two don't like each other and that makes them a bit uncomfortable. they have some complicated feelings that they have to work out, but sadly they're just not willing to talk about it yet. they put on a cool but rude exterior but deep down they really wish someone would ask how they're doing. they're the kind of guy who would grind their skateboard on the hood of your car if you were minding your business at a stop light. they're also the type of guy who thinks "everyone hates me no one wants to hang out with me" but they actually get invited to like everyones birthday party they just choose not to go because they think they're too cool.
