Some MOTM warrior cats cross over designs my friend Denny and I made! Really most of the critical thinking was done by them, I just made the designs😭
In this au the blot is the black cough from the books, and the quest is finding the missing moonstone pieces! The water is polluted and is causing mutants to come out of it that are our searches in this. This was just made for fun!
The extent of what I know about Warrior Cats essentially boils down to, there’s cats living in the woods and they fight each other, there’s an emo spikey collar one, their names are all formatted as (thing)+(thing), Firestar doesn’t like waffles, and they all shit in a big hole in the ground
EDIT: *head. Charles gets his head bitten off. How one could have their “heat” bitten off I have no idea, but either way you’d end up cold!
Sooo I've been feeling like a shit artist lately and decided to repaint one of the first pieces I posted on tumblr. Which just happened to be some Ashes fanart lol. I'm really happy with how this came out. With the new tablet my boyfriend bought me I've been able to see textures and colors a lot better than on my old one. Older piece under cut from roughly 2021. Ashes belongs to @mallowstep

Masterlist
It was Malleus’s mother who suggested you join the royal guard. She had seen your potential as a capable and strategic warrior growing up in Briar Valley. Her husband wasn’t sure at first, but upon seeing the skills you put out, he relented and allowed you to join. After training for ages, it was finally time for you to join a team, and Malleus’s mother put you with Lilia Vanrouge’s regiment, as he is the best warrior in the royal guard.
Sure he was the Commander of the regiment, Malleus’s mother believed your skills would be a great help as his right hand. At first, Lilia was none too keen about working with you. He liked his small, tight-knit team just the way it was. He didn’t need someone like you on his team. Despite the fact that he didn’t seem to like you all that much, at least he was cordial as you worked.
Until Briar Valley was under attack.
You were on the frontlines, taking down every attacker from every angle. You were desperately outnumbered and you were getting backed into a corner, but you would yield. You couldn’t. You would not see harm to the glorious kingdom built by the Draconia family. You would not be the cause of their downfall.
A large blast of magic slammed into you, causing you to pitch to the side and fall to the ground. You exposed your weak point and they were closing in on you. Cursing under your breath, you went from offense to defense, desperately trying to keep from falling and allowing your line to break.
“Y/N!” You heard Lilia shout from somewhere in front of you, behind your assailants. “We’ve been compromised! We need to get out of here right now!”
You shook your hand, continuing to fight off the incoming attackers. “No! I can’t!”
He found his way to you, slicing all of the enemies in his way. He tried to grab onto your arm, but you pushed him away. “I’m serious! We need to get to a safer ground. We need to save the others. Now let’s go!”
“I can’t!” You wailed, your voice cracking with desperation. “I have to protect this kingdom along with all of its citizens just like they saved me years ago! I can’t give up on this kingdom! I can’t give up on the Draconia’s! And I will die trying if I have to, just so they don’t fall!”
There was a pause, and for a second you thought he would leave you where you were. That was until you heard him swear under his breath and faced your attackers. With his sword raised, he began to charge. The tiniest smile tugged at your lips as you fought side by side. You thought it would be you alone trying to save Briar Valley. But you were grateful he was here beside you.
It felt like hours before things started to slow down and you could give your aching bones some reprieve. You slumped back onto the ground as the last of the attacks dispersed. With a sigh, you leaned back against a tree and closed your eyes, trying not to think about the pain in your joints.
“Hey, c’mon.” You opened your eyes to see Lilia holding a hand out to you while avoiding eye contact. “We should get you to the infirmary so they can relieve your injuries and your pain.”
You nodded and followed him through the forest to the infirmary wing of the Draconia castle. Occasionally he would stop to talk to other guards walking in the same direction as the two of you, asking them if they needed anything. Each one thanked the two of you for helping keep the kingdom safe for all of the citizens in the Valley. Lilia had a hard time accepting the compliments, so you thanked them in return for their kind words.
Eventually you were in the infirmary covered in bandages and drinking a special medicinal tea. The pain was easing slowly and the nurse told you to refrain from overexerting your body for a while. As you laid in the bed, Lilia sat next to you, twiddling his thumbs.
The Queen appeared and gave you a proud smile. “I’m so glad the two of you are okay! I was so worried when I didn’t see you with the other members of your regiment. I decided to come and see if you were resting after your valiant efforts on the battlefield.”
“It was all them. They did most of the work.” Lilia mumbled. “I was trying to help.”
The Queen simply said, “Well, I’m glad the two of you are alright. And the whole Briar Valley owes you its gratitude. Without you, we would have lost everything. Everything is safe and sound. So thank you, so much, for everything you did today. The King will be so pleased to hear of your heroism.”
You smiled. “Thank you, your Majesty. That means a lot.”
“You’re very welcome.” She nodded her head. “Now, I have to go double check the rest of the royal guards and make sure all of the citizens are alright. You two deserve some rest, so take your time before coming back to the guards. You know, I am so glad I assigned the two of you to be on the same team. You both work excellently together like perfect partners.”
As she left, you glanced at Lilia and saw a pink dusting on his pale cheeks. You couldn’t help but giggle which caused him to pout.
“Stop! I’m not very good with compliments. I don’t need you mocking me.” He muttered.
“I’m not mocking you. I just think you’re cute when you blush.” You softly say.
“Oh.”
“Thank you, by the way.” You added. “I don’t think I could have held off all those enemies by myself. You really helped me out a lot.”
He fidgeted in his seat some more as the blush on his cheeks got darker. “You’re welcome. And you know, I think the Queen was right. We do make a pretty good team.”
You smiled and nodded. “Yeah. We’re the perfect partners.”
