y’all i work in construction and i was on a ledge 35 feet up being lazy lifting something in a, lets say non-OSHA compliant manner, and i swear right before i started pulling i heard brennan lee mulligan’s voice on the wind saying “are you weakest, do you feel, at the elbow or the shoulder?”
i stopped and went through correct safety procedure so damn quickly. thats what i call divine intervention.

!!! Slight Stormbringer Story Spoilers !!!
Okay so the update like just came out and I haven't finished the story yet but I need to talk about something lmao
There aren't any plot spoilers, but I do show the other 3 Legends'(?) designs
Although they're also shown in a loading screen, but I'll put it under a cut to be safe lol
I didn't get a screenshot of it but ??? is Cloud Deity Cookie
I could be wrong because I don't know a huge amount about other Asian cultures, but I'm pretty sure these four are based on the Auspicious Beasts from Chinese culture
I don't know the full legend, but they're four celestial beasts that represent different elements, directions, and seasons
The four beasts are the White Tiger (metal), Black Tortoise (water), Azure Dragon (wood), and Vermillion Bird (fire)
Now, obviously the colors and elements don't align but design wise I think the beasts do
Stormbringer has buns on her head that look similar to ears that could be tiger ears and she also has stripes all over her and a little tooth
Cloud Deity has pauldrons that kind of look like tortoise shells and they have that cloud bag that's reminiscent of a shell on the back, although that one's a bit of a stretch
Wind Deity obviously has very bird-like aspects like wings for arms/wing looking sleeves, a feather in her hair and a feathered fan
Rain Deity is significantly less obvious and arguably doesn't have any dragon-like features, but their hair and/or dress could be reminiscent of an Eastern dragon and their color palette is blue which aligns with the Azure Dragon
This theory doesn't add anything to anything and is purely just me analyzing their designs lmao

Bit of a ramble, but a Zakkura headcanon I have is that Zack, for all of his being able to flirt with girls, cannot manage to be as smooth with Cloud. He tries and fails. Is it because of his lack of experience flirting with men, or is it because Cloud doesn't get the hints he's trying to drop?
(Hint: It is both )

These three got great designs
Also in my opinion, I like Rain and Cloud’s voices, but Wind’s is slightly annoying and Stormbringer’s a bit more so. I may just need to get used to them, but still

If Pinestar was the Mi of his kits, why didn’t he try to take any of them with him when he left? Like Brightsky keeping some of her litter. He knew how the clans were, he was specifically leaving to get away from it, why did he choose to leave his children behind?
It wasn't a choice. Brightsky gave birth in the home she bolted to; Pinestar wasn't going to be allowed to take his children unless he snuck out with them.
He wishes he did something, when he sees what became of his son. But he tried to be brave when he left, announcing that he would not be coming back, and where he would be going.
He thought that was the right thing to do. Unfortunately, no one else appreciated it the way he hoped they would.
If he DID though, ThunderClan would not have allowed that. They see it as kidnapping. Being Mi doesn't mean you're allowed to do literally anything you want, especially if you do have a Ba involved.
In cases of handoffs (surrogacy, secret halfclan kits being given to their other parent, etc) it's actually SUPER important you do it before 1 moon, so you can pass the disappearance off as a fading kit. There are no funerals thrown for fading kits besides the Mi and any Ba quietly burying the body, so this is the time where you smuggle the baby out.
So you need all the Ba on board with such a handoff, in addition. Cloudtail is an example of that actually! When Brightheart surrogates, he is fully aware of how many are ACTUALLY faders and who is receiving their child.
Tigerkit was like 3-ish moons when Pinestar hit da bricks, unfortunately there wasn't a way he could take him along... plus it wouldn't quite make sense with how he was having nightmares about murdering his son.
