NightSquirrel!

hypokits of Squirrelflight and Nightcloud?

oh

Burnttuft - Extremely lively and without any filter, she usually prefers to flirt with any cat just to break the ice. He's pretty stupid in general when it comes to relationships, rarely having stable one.

i am still going through the horrors but i made an au!!! it’s a squirrelflight au called the crush au, where she stays with ashfur. nightcloud doesn’t divorce crowfeather but does NOT like him (staying together for breezekit’s sake), crowfeather knows about the three’s existence but doesn’t give a darn about them, and squirrelflight still takes the kits and tells ashfur they’re his, as she did with brambleclaw.

ashfur is a controlling piece of fox dung to squirrelflight, as one could expect from him, forcing her to fit in the role of a loving wife and mother so he can live his white-picket-fence dream. squilf finds solace in talking to nightcloud at gatherings about their shitty mates, and the two become friends. they start to sneak out to see each other and talk with each other, and become besties. this was a thing from my other tumblr draft about it that i haven’t posted yet which essentially is them.

ashfur eventually gets worse to squilf, and leafpool knows it’s not good but it really sets in when jaypaw, her very new apprentice, mentions it. leafpool is very upset and gets squilf to tell firestar and sandstorm. she eventually gets support and leaves ashfur and he seems chill about it, but he is Not. he’s essentially stalking her, and wuh oh nightcloud and squirrelflight, eventually, become secretly romantic crowleaf style (at this point nightcloud divorced crowfeather, and this takes place a while later as squilf needs to heal and repair her mental state before jumping into another relationship). ashfur snaps because “only i can have her” weird shit. fire scene!!!! but, it is different. ashfur plans it more carefully, a lot more. he wants to take away everything squirrelflight ever loved, so he can be the only thing she can love. it’s not as much revenge like it is in canon but an attempt to destroy her further so she only has him left. the fire scene is essentially the same, with the exception of nightcloud being there rather than squirrelflight. and instead of the classic “they’re adopted lol” bit, breezepelt pops out of nowhere and literally up and attacks ashfur, and the others get to escape. i have no clue how i’m gonna get nightcloud there but i will FIGURE IT OUT, breeze just follows nightcloud. I PROMISE THIS IS COOL AND MAKES SENSE THIS IS A RLLY CONDENSED VER. OF THE AU

ashfur lives and he gets a cool scar from the fire, and he goes “ugh fine you know what. HEY EVERYONE SQUIRRELFLIGHT ATTACKED ME AND SHES DATING NIGHTCLOUD” but nightcloud, i love her, is a stubborn lady that takes no shit, and essentially argues with ashfur at the gathering. starclan is pissed and does the moon cloud cover thing, but the clans remain at the gathering. crowfeather gets upset at nightcloud, nightcloud is sticking to her morals and taking no shit from ashfur, ashfur is just an asshole, squilf is two moments away from a panic attack and leafpool is considering murder, you know how it is. some stuff happens that i haven’t figured out, but eventually nightcloud and breezepaw go to thunderclan. why? i think it’s an adorable found family idea LOOK AT THEM.

that’s my wip half-done au that is not developed at all but i love the idea and am going to be doodling and developing it over the next few weeks ^^

get nightsquirreled

I just drew this awhile ago but uh. Hypoparents! A thing now

i am so obbessed w nightsquirrel, yes girl dump your stupid boyfriends for eachother

squirrelcrow queer platonic partners >:3c

both of these are so good!! I love both of these ships!!

Im very tempted by the idea of a queer platonic ship between Squirrel and Crow because I love me some QPR rep!!! Its also cute bec Crow is Leafpool's beast friend so i could see Squirrel and Crow bonding during the journey over Leaf and then becoming the insufferable ass duo

Im realizing that I have made a whole friend group, Squirrel, Leaf, Crow, Bramble, Tawny and Moth :))) friendship

NightSquirrel!

NightSquirrel + SquirrelCrow at the same time is actually funny. Imagine dating two exes at the same time. This is like some sitcom plot.

Give me a...

🌌 Twilight - Favorite and least favorite ship

OOOOH hmmm. see i dont have a ton of ships in this fandom i just kinda vibe. like if you bring something up?? sure, cool. but they don't live in my head. is it completely predictable if i say swift/bright/cloud lol? in the interest of choosing a ship i Havent talked/written to death, nightsquirrel!! also this accidentally got long oops

i saw fanart ages and AGES ago and it honestly might have been crowsquirrel and im just misremembering, but it was like squirrelflight showing up in windclan with alderkit and sparkkit like "i didnt know where to go" and mhm it lives rent free in my head. i've tried to find it since but its been like 2 years so i just gotta accept its gone forerver.

also, look, i like crowfeather, but nightcloud and squirrelflight both have terrible husbands in canon and they should run away together.

i also have a hc (which i wrote into d2d!) that nightcloud was a loner because she never shows up until she's a full warrior, so squirrelflight, being from thunderclan and the daughter of an ex-kittypet, is one of the first cats to not treat her like an outsider even from another clan.

also they both have a connection to leafpool's weird messed up love life and both their kids were major players in the war between literal heaven and hell and idk i think thats funny. and they have a whole quiet & calm/bubbly & energetic dynamic that i love

(disclaimer im no longer sure how much of my interpretation of nightcloud is canon anymore and i dont actually care shes my babygirl now)

least favorite ship....like i said, not a ton of opinions. i'm trying to think of a semi-popular non-canon ship i dont like..

ooooooof, just remembered, Not a hawkivy person. the whole age gap plus power dynamic of him being her mentor and just, like, idk. he's her superior in the army she is Spying On. i can see why some people ship it i suppose but i dont like it. also ivypool's whole character arc is Important To Me and i think shes cool and i dont want her to date a villain. so there's that

Hypokits for Nightcloud and Squirrelflight

the three, but they are nightsquirrel kits

im sorry anon, this ask is so old lol

— Copperleaf (Hollyleaf): Basically the same as canon, but the fixation with the code simply does not exist, because she already knows who her parents are. She becomes a medicine cat later in life, because she feels uncomfortable and tired with the life of a warrior, she has a good relationship with Kestrelflight and Barkface.

— Lynxflame (Lionblaze): The same jock in personality as always, he trained in the DF with greater presence and was even successfully manipulated by Tigerstar, only realizing what he had done when his brothers found out about it, they are non-judgmental but threaten to tell the Clan if he doesn't stop.

— Hummingbirdcall (Jayfeather): [based on a black hummingbird] EXTREMELY BIG like his mother, he's not as grumpy as he usually is, because when he was initially assigned to be a medical apprentice he had already resigned himself. However, it quickly switched places with Kestrepaw after Nightcloud almost hit Onestar.

some1 recommended me this fic after asking to use my designs so um i made art for it because i like squirrel x night

the fic is 'the sire (like a shadow)' by fallowpaws on ao3 and i think its good so check it out (theres a sequel too called 'as her namesake')

ngl I'm surprised picklenight isn't more popular. But then again, out of all of what was going on in CF's trial, I didn't expect people to linger on it too much. Like if the erins ever decided to give nightcloud another mate, I hope it would be pickle. I think she deserves a soft kittypet husband

I needa write more songfics methinks

idk who tf nightcloud and squirrelfight are but they look scrumbly sun and moon lesbian type scrunko (sorry if i get their genders wrong idk shit abt wc they just look so lesbian from the fanart u rb)

why r u so right what the hell

nightsquirrel good
