I’ll be the actress starring in your bad dreams.

the real reason i just drew all those shadowclan cats: i wanted to do a lineup of the maplesoot fam. i love that none of these guys look even remotely similar color-wise and beestripe is the only adopted one <3

left to right: beestripe, falconflight, sootwhisker, maplestorm, ravenstorm, lightningheart

hrm,, amv ideas,,

one of my terrible habits is listening to music and coming up with elaborate amv ideas that i will never do, but writing them down makes me happy so here we go

know who you are from moana: maplestar dying and going to starclan, only to find sootstar at the border of the dark forest. super emotional scenes where they reconcile and maplestar brings sootstar into starclan,,, ugh this one hurts my heart. ((I have crossed the horizon to find you. I know your name. They have stolen the heart from inside you, but this does not define you))

no children by the mountain goats: shellfang and lightningclaw, mostly the aftermath of shellfang’s exile, focusing on shellfang being An Awful Person to her mate and kit. ((And I hope when you think of me years down the line you can't find one good thing to say. And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out, you'd stay the hell out of my way))

two time by jack stauber: lightningclaw x stormfrost vid. lightning is sad bc his ex is awful and his childhood crush doesn’t like him back. stormfrost is sad bc his crush is dead. they get together and it’s surprisingly good for them. ((Hands up, feel okay! Whose heart could I break today? Two time! Stay friends? Problem that you can't defend.))

pork soda by glass animals: snowfeather reflecting on his childhood and how his friends and brother have grown distant from him, namely duskdapple also becoming An Awful Person and stormfrost leaving to join skyclan. ((Why can't we laugh now like we did then?  How come I see you and ache instead?))

dirty paws by of monsters and men: basically one of the leaders (either lightningstar or sootstar idk) being Super Old and telling the story of the journey and the threat of foxstar to their grandchildren. ((And that's how the story goes, the story of the beast with those four dirty paws))

buttercup by jack stauber: Lightningclaw Needs Therapy™ ((no specific lyrics the vibe just fits man))

in our bedroom after the war by stars: crowstar as a new leader and trying to cope with piecing thunderclan back together, with extra struggles since she was never actually deputy. aka starclan is a dick. (( We won, or we think we did. When you went away, you were just a kid. And if you lost it all, and you lost it, well, we'll still be there when your war is over))

[we-rate-warrior-names]

sootwhisker (f), stormfrost (m), and maplestorm (f)? this is such a cool idea!!

Sootwhisker - An intelligent and friendly she-cat. Sootwhisker has a solution for every problem, her quick mind allows her to solve problems quickly, you know whenever she’s had a good idea as she will let out a little chirp and widen her eyes. She’s good company, often Warriors that are off duty will come and talk to her, even during gatherings cats from other clans will seek her out, 13/10

Stormfrost - An introverted and hard working tom. Stormfrost prefers to do things independently when he can, he finds that he works better this way, as he doesn’t feel as pressured to succeed. He works hard to ensure that his clanmates won’t doubt him for working alone, despite appearing closed off he wants to please his clanmates and prove himself as a warrior, 15/10

Maplestorm - A courageous and determined she-cat. Maplestorm will never start a fight, but she certainly can finish one, her courage gives her the faith that she can win, and she is easily capable of doing so. She will never give up on anything, especially if it’s in service of her clan, 14/10
