an updated mr bod & teen* angst

[threeclans]

With just under a week left to apply in our Roots or Rivers opening, we are bringing you yet another review! This time, Roachwhisker of NettleClan speaks on behalf of the clan he has made his home. Though he came to the clan as a lost kitten, he’s certainly carved out a place for himself...and found love in the mean time, it seems! Perhaps all future NettleClan cats will be as fortunate as Roachwhisker and Rushheart have been.

✨ 🌼 🌈 for pollenpaw and roachwhisker!!

✨ –  initial thoughts / opinions

for roachwhisker, my initial thoughts were oh GOD, ROACH – okay but truly, roachwhisker came off to me as just a sad little guy and i definitely felt a lot of sympathy for him. it was super sweet to watch him fall in easily with wigeonfur and thrushfur at the start of his time in nettleclan. 

for pollenpaw i think he pretty immediately came off as a problem child. i was interested to see where his anger would go, whether or not he’d adapt to clan life or resent having to live there, and i was just...curious to see what sort of issues he was inevitably going to cause.

🌼  –  alternate name

roachwhisker’s suffix is just fine with me but we all know how i feel about roaches, so! i think briarwhisker could’ve been really sweet for him, or maybe even bramblewhisker!

as for pollenpaw, it’s sort of an odd one, but i think lightning- would be a neat prefix for him. lightningpaw, and then...lightningclaw, perhaps? 

🌈 –  something i want to happen in their character arc 

roachwhisker has gotta get his confession to rushheart GOING. we know he has feelings, we know rushheart needs relief after the disaster with marigoldheart...really, though, even if he doesn’t confess soon, i’d love to see him sort of fall into the role of comforting rushheart through his...not quite break up, but. you know. 

with pollenpaw, i’d like to see him lean a bit into being a dumb / rash teenager...i don’t know quite which bad decision i’d like him to make, but it’s about time he does something a little out of control / in bad judgement. maybe fighting a clanmate, maybe crossing a border for prey...i just feel like his spark has been a bit less blatant lately and i’d love to see him get back to being more troublesome.
