fuck you (2009 ashfur amv-ifies ur horrible love triangle)

Snowhare, Deputy of WindClan

Snowkit -> Snowpaw -> Snowhare

drew mine + my friends' human ocs in the comics style

things are happening in my pages documents i tell you what

Whatre all these characters from? :0c are the from like a fic or an rp or just some ocs from a universe you’re developing??

bound by devotion in particular is a warrior cats themed adaptation of my main human oc stpry “forgive the lonely” …. the publicly known lore for both is pretty sparing and changes often but BBD has the most i guess Content thats available for yall to see :3 im not sure if i’ll ever write it as one concrete story due to the fact it’s still linked to my main oc stuff which i change often so i think its more of just a sandbox with a title lol

the basic premise is set in a mountainside forest. there’s 4 clans (valleyclan in the. well. valley, hootclan in the woods, leveeclan across the mountain and by a river; partially integrated into a twoleg town, and quarryclan by an old mineshaft) and 2 other colonies (a large unorganized colony of farmcats, and rogues in the town).

the story primarily follows snowhare of valleyclan and the abuse his longtime friend summerstorm puts him through, sabotaging snowhare’s closest relationships (his mate eveningsong, their kits together, other friends, snow’s siblings, etc) both directly and indirectly as summerstorm tries to isolate him and make snowhare dependent on him and finally fall in love with him in return. things dont go summerstorm’s way, though, so he starts resorting to extreme violence and secret betrayals to gain control over both valleyclan and his object of affection. snowhare is losing his grip on reality and struggles with paranoid psychosis due to the amount of gaslighting and emotional abuse he’s put through

there’s a theme about cycles of abuse throughout this story - valleyclan’s had a history of enabling domestic abuse by turning the other cheek, especially within snowhare’s family line (he’d been victimized a lot growing up, especially by his parents and brothers). summerstorm also came from an abusive family in leveeclan, his father and his own brothers perpetrating it before he finally ran away after his mother’s death. summerstorm continues the cycle onto snowhare, and even his ex mate rosewood, their daughter jaybird, and a few others in his life. but the environment that they live in treats it as normal at worst and something not worth making a scene over at best. snowhare isn’t innocent either, as he’s projected onto his kids a handful of times himself. he just knows how to apologize, unlike a few cats in his clan.

that doesn’t mean those cats are evil and irredeemable, though, as there’s a lot of gray areas just like in real life. theyve done bad things but many have learned from their mistakes and even made peace or gotten closure with the cats they hurt, even if they’re never friends again. summerstorm unfortunately isn’t able to redeem himself, having pushed too many boundaries, hurt too many cats, and still staunchly refusing to accept he’s in the wrong. ultimately his pride, obsession, and disregard for snowhare’s boundaries is what gradually leads to his downfall

In your bound by devotion story, are any of the cats queer? (both gender and or sexuality)

most of my ocs are queer in general, though mostly in sexuality. i default to pan/bi to keep my options open ^_^ but heres a few with more specific identities attached to them (some have identities that would be more presentable in human/anthro form due to how little gender and presentation matters in this universe) :o

ermine - bisexual polyamorous

snowhare - bisexual

elkwood/star - butch lesbian

summerstorm - gay

driftwood - trans queer tom (describes himself as june-beach's mother and is ok with his mom, sister, and/or mate calling him loretta/lori but otherwise uses masculine terms and titles)

dawnpetal - femme lesbian

jaybird - transhet molly (kept her name. uses exclusively feminine titles)

jackrabbit - fem gay

sable - gnc bisexual tom

morningdove - gay bear

not an exhaustive list by any means but just pulling from who i've shared so far :)

who's your favorite of your oc's?

snowhare is my top fav. worlds most miserable animal

Snowhare and Violetbelly of WindClan

Snowhare is a small, young white cat with brown ears and a docked tail. They are the youngest deputy around the lake, and very uneasy in their new position, but determined to live up to the legacy set before them. They’re very high spirited, ready to face any challenge and rarely backs away from obstacles. They have a poor tendency to ignore help until it’s desperately needed.

Violetbelly is a fluffy black and white she-cat with a speckled belly. She is WindClan’s medicine cat apprentice, and a very caring soul. She has the patience to match even StarClan itself and an endless talent with herbs and omens. She secretly holds a lot of influence in her clan, despite her apprentice status, and had a hand in convincing Daystar that her sibling was the best choice for deputy.

Snowkit and Violetkit were born to Blackrabbit and the late queen Icegorse. Being the only two kits born to the clan at the time, the two were often smothered with the clan’s attention, Snowkit especially. With Snowkit’s poor health, half the clan was in and out of the nursery on the daily. Violetkit never minded the attention her sibling got, instead being worried herself that her only friend and playmate was always sick. Whenever the medicine cat, Gorsemist, would come to tend to Snowkit, Violetkit would offer the best of her help, working patiently and following instructions as if she herself were working to heal Snowkit. It was here that Violetkit’s love for caring for her clanmates began.

Snowkit eventually regained their health, but only just in time for the two kits to reach their sixth moon. For the first time, WindClan’s nursery would be empty, and Snowkit and Violetkit would join the apprentices. Only, Violetkit would no longer share a den with her sibling, instead being chosen by Gorsemist as a suitable apprentice. Snowpaw would join Ripplepaw, Ashpaw, and Skypaw in the apprentices den.

Being so much young than their denmates, Snowpaw was determined to catch up. Their mentor, Brighteye, was pleasantly surprised to see the sickly, quiet kit had quickly grown into an energetic and determined apprentice and happily moved her apprentice through their training as quickly as Daystar would allow. Snowpaw’s training grinded to a halt briefly, when Icegorse died of a mysterious illness not even Gorsemist’s experienced paws could cure. Violetpaw and Snowpaw regained their closeness in that moment, but both were determined to continue their training and make their mother proud.

Snowpaw was once again left alone in their den as Ripplepaw, Ashpaw, and Skypaw were all named warriors, but they refused to let that get them down. It was barely a moon later that Snowpaw had finished their final assessment and joined their friends in the warriors den.

Daystar had been impressed by the young warrior’s spirit and swift learning. With the encouragement of his medicine cat, and deputy of the time, Hazelwind, Daystar gave Snowhare their first apprentice, Newtpaw.

Newtpaw and Snowhare quickly were at odds due to Newtpaw’s lazy nature. The young she-cat was simply unmotivated and unwillingly to listen to a cat not much older than she. Snowhare questioned Daystar’s choice, giving them an apprentice that wasn’t even a full turn of the seasons younger than them. Snowhare refused to let down her clan, however, and began trying different methods. Snowhare quickly realized it was much easier to treat Newtpaw as a young friend than an apprentice and the two began to get along as they joked their way through fighting training and hunting trips.

It’s on one of these many hunting trips that Snowhare loses their tail. Having dashed their way straight into an old badgers set, the tunnel collapsed behind them as they crashed, crushing their tail under rocks and debris. Newtpaw dug her mentor from the set and helped them back to camp, where Gorsemist cut their mangled tail. Like many loses in their life, Snowhare had the support of their friends and sister, and wouldn’t let it set them back.

Violetbelly, having recently been given her medicine cat name, felt a sense of longing as she witnessed how her sibling succeeded. She missed the closeness that kithood had brought them and wanted nothing more than to help her sibling again. The brief moments she got while Snowhare was healing from the tunnel incident were a dream to her but short-lived as Snowhare went back to their warrior duties. When it was announced that Hazelwind would be retiring to the elders den, Violetbelly gained the idea of helping her sibling become deputy.

Violetbelly spent days crafting her plan, and on the day Daystar was set to make his decision, Violetbelly sprung. She secretly chased a snow-white hare into the camp, leading it to the entrance before slipping away to join her clanmates in shock as the young rabbit hopped into camp. Daystar conversed with Gorsemist about the sign until sundown that day, finally accepting that the young warrior Snowhare was his StarClan ordained choice for deputy.

Snowhare was shocked by the decision, and completely unready. Their first moon as a deputy was a struggle as they fumbled through patrols and hunting and training. Daystar even began questioning his choices. Snowhare is still working to be a good deputy and will be given a second apprentice as soon as Ashbristle’s kits are ready.

Violetbelly let no one, not even her sibling know of her ploy, simply congratulating her sibling and helping them through the first moon with advice.
