For the tf2 wc crossover/au it looks like the blue team cats are skinnier, did I miss the bit why? It’s a fun little tidbit that has me 👀 at the hint of lore

Also huge fan of that au in general it’s so funny/great

Hell yeah thank you so much! I didn't go much into why, but yes — most of Blueclan's (BLU team) cats are skinner (with a few exceptions I'll mention.) Initially it was more reasoning in my head, but I'll try explain my thoughts

It's a silly AU and everything is silly. There is a distinct lack of clan heritage and culture we see in the books. It is purely two clans comprised of rogues because Redstar and Bluestar (Redmond and Blutarch) are assholes with no friends or family with a massive territory left to them to split 50/50. As per canon, they're stupid about it and both gather up a clan of rogues to steal the land off each other.

As it stands, Redclan (RED Team) occupy most of the land, whereas Blueclan live on the outskirts. This is to play on the Attack/Defense roles the teams play in the game. Redclan are more aggressive in strategy as a general rule. They defend their borders mercilessly, while Blueclan constantly attempt to attack their camps and take patches of land back... and ultimately wish to take all the territory for themselves too. So it's not really like the Sunningrocks with Riverclan and Thunderclan with heritage vs survival. Neither Blueclan or Redclan are entitled to shit. They're both assholes. Neither clan is right and they're just trying to kill each other.

But basically because of this massive difference in territory size, Blueclan live up in the colder areas. There's less prey, they are mostly thinner than their Redclan counterparts, and have thicker pelts. Also irrelevant but they tend to sleep closer together, whereas Redclan's members just keep apart.

Now for exceptions to this rule! Raccoontrot (BLU Soldier) and Mistmask (BLU Spy) are roughly the same size as their Redclan counterparts (although Mistmask is just naturally smaller/weighs less than Smokeface (RED Spy).) Reasons? Raccoontrot is friends with Sparkloch (RED Demoman), the two visiting each other in secret frequently. Sparkloch brings prey for Raccoontrot each time they visit, and it's honestly suspicious to Blueclan why Raccoontrot seems fine with the lack of food around. Mistmask is also fine because he hunts and steals prey CONSTANTLY from Redclan territory. He's hard to stop because he can mask his scent, and is exceptionally sneaky: if you don't catch him in the act, you'd never know he was there. The scratch on Dingospot's (RED Sniper) face was from the one time he caught Mistmask stealing and the two squared up. That's the only track record they have to know what he's up to.

So in conclusion, I do be out here overthinking this silly AU and I hope everyone enjoyed B))

Genuinely thought my tumblr was broken cause the icon for live wasn’t going away. Thanks for the post letting my know this is an “Intentional mistake” on their part

Eh whatever part was intentional, they fucked up. Again. But no, it’s not just you. Was trying to get it to go away and usually my eyes glaze over when I see the text about snoozing but this time caught that it’s 30 days.

Pro:

-have to snooze it less regularly

Cons:

-I STILL HAVE TO SNOOZE IT WHAT THE FUCK TUMBLR THE LENGTH OF TIME BETWEEN IS NOT THE ISSUE OH MY GOD ID STILL BE PISSED TO DO IT YEARLY!

-icon won’t go away when I snooze which is the point of snoozing. I don’t want to see it at all. Not the “new”, not the camera. None of that shit. Yeah, I WILL snooze it less frequently also if snoozing doesn’t work, fix your goddamn website

Hey, I was wondering if you reblogged the post listing different books about bdsm? I tried looking for it on your blog, but couldn’t find it before my app crashed.

I found THIS post, which I think is the one you’re referring to
