HELP????

Kindlepaw is a car confirmed

[residents-of-the-darkforest]

Me, trying to chill and sleep: Brain, craving angst: what if Kindle KILLED SOMEONE while in the DF Me: Me: now wtf would possess her to do that (<- Despite the fact they are in Cat Hell I doubt they would wanna even hurt anyone even if someone came at them with the intent to murder)

what if it was in self-defense and completely unplanned? Like she just lashed out and whoops, slit their throat!

Or for extra angst....the one they killed was just messing with her and not really attacking

[residents-of-the-darkforest]

Kindlepaw/hill/idk what to call her lmao probably scratches her burn scars whenever she's anxious. It's not exactly the best way to handle anxiety cause it irritates her skin but she's not the best at dealing with anxiety. ...However this probably means she gets irritated skin p easily lmao, especially in her first couple of moons in the dark forest

maybe little Buzzardkit/paw/blaze helps her? He's interesting in how to form burns, maybe he also knows how to take care of them

Or potentially Aloe, who is burned by fire ants and has by now learned to take care of it

The "df cats keep their injuries in death" gave me a thought- What if Kindle occasionally breathed out smoke or embers, due to how she died?

The more embers/smoke = the more distressed she is

ooh yes!

smoke inhalation is also how Stoatspeck died, fun fact!

Kindlepaw headcanon: She draws in the ground with her sticks as anxiety relief. Some cat randomly stumbles across many, many murals drawn into the dirt by one anxiety child

Red and Lightning find a big open space for her to use

@umbranoxs what if Kindlepaw first started to think of the two as her parents because Sprucepaw mistook them for her moms and she realizes she doesn’t want to correct him

[residents-of-the-darkforest]

@starfalcon555 @umbranoxs

imagine if Sprucepaw had the opposite arrival where he saw a tree hollow and thought “oh thank Starclan some shelter” and later Kindle or someone else comes home and is just like can I help you?
