[KIT FINDER] these flashing lights are fleeting under this fallen sky
The time is now
Hello and welcome! You have no doubt come here in search of a kit. Well, lucky you! This is a kit finder for . . .

FLEETSKY KITS
For those of you who don't know, this will be the first litter born to Fallensky (RPed by @Crown_Sage) and Fleetflash (RPed by me) of WindClan.
In case you are still in the dark and have no idea who I'm talking about, please be sure to read up on Fallensky and Fleetflash at their respective bios!
Appearances!
I'm no genetics expert, but thankfully we've both got pretty detailed descriptions!
Fallensky is a primarily white she-cat with ginger tabby patches. She has heterochromatic eyes – one green and one blue – and a pink nose.
Fleetflash is a lanky boi. He’s tall and skinny with oriental features. He has short dark blue-gray fur with a lighter tail and singular splotch on his head. He has dark red eyes.
These kits will also have family in WindClan, mostly from Fallensky’s side. Fallensky’s mother is Daywhisper and her littermate/half-sibling is Hollyhawk. Fallensky’s father was Crow, an outsider. Kin of Fallensky’s that don’t impact the gene pool for these kits include Whiteflame (step-dad; white with orange patched legs a bobtail and blue eyes; RPed by @/SillyLittleCherry), and half-siblings Emberpaw (black and white she-cat with ginger specks and green eyes; RPed by @/BlowingBubbles), Sparkpaw (white she-cat with splotches of cream, fawn, and red and a short tail; RPed by me but currently missing due to inactivity), Flickerpaw (mostly white she-cat with pale red patches and bright blue eyes; RPed by @/seeingstars), Smolderkit (cream with ginger striped splotches; RPed by @/GreenTheGreat), and Burningpaw (cream tom with striped legs, and a larger stripe on his back; RPed by @/Myling).
Fleetflash has no living biological family, and he doesn’t remember his biological parents. For your information though, his mother was a loner named Flower. She was a smokey gray tabby she-cat who was missing her tail, an eye, and an ear from battle. Additionally, Fleetflash’s biological father has been decided in OOC discussions!
*insert drumroll here*
Fleetflash’s biological father was none other than…Reedclaw of RiverClan! Dun-dun-duuuuuun! Reedclaw was a dark grey tabby tom with green eyes and a few patches of lighter grey. He was also known for…well…spreading the love we shall say. This gives Fleetflash kin he’s unaware of in both ThunderClan (Snakefang, a brown tabby she-cat with green and some lighter patches of brown) and RiverClan (Duskleaf, a dark gray tom with lighter gray markings and bright green eyes).
Currently, the only kin Fleetflash recognizes are Twilightstar (as an adoptive mother) and Dustbunny (his former mentor, who he views as like an older sister), both who are RPed by the lovely @/Moonraven. But they don’t have any influence on the gene pool here. :3
SPEAKING OF! Where are the hypokitties you may ask?
Why, here are some right here!
Hypokitties are just there to help you get your creative juices flowing! You do not have to choose to use one for your character!

Names!
This is a fun part right?! What names do these parents enjoy?? Well, you're about to find out! While this litter has no theme, the parents do have some name preferences.
Fallensky does not have any name preferences! So for her part, go wild!
Fleetflash will be partial to names that pay homage to WindClan, Twilightstar, and Dustbunny. This doesn’t have to mean Windkit, Twilightkit, and Dustkit, get creative! It could mean something like Windy, Gale, Moor, Dash (for WindClan’s speed), Grass/Grassy, Light, Shining, Dusty, Hare, Rabbit, and so on. Be creative! Fleetflash is also a tunneler and he loves his work, so here’s your chance to have weird names themed after the dark, chill of the tunnel or even dirt! He will also consider names of animals that can be found in the tunnels - like mice, moles, raccoons, badgers, etc. Tunnel-themed names - like Shadow, Burrow/Burrowing, etc. - are also good! And of course, any name that Fallensky likes, he’ll like!
**Fleetflash has severe anxieties, some stemming from his PTSD from his life as an outsider but given that propensity for anxiety is partially a genetic trait, you may choose for your kit to have some form of anxiety. This includes generalized anxiety, agoraphobia, social anxiety, basically anything. This does not mean the kits HAVE to have anxiety!! It’s just an option!**
**While heterochromia itself is benign, some white cats with blue eyes may also have a higher chance of being deaf on the side of their blue eye, but this is due to a different gene. This does not mean that your kits must have heterochromia or any deafness, just something to keep in mind!**
how they will be raised
As mentioned, Fleetflash didn’t grow up with a father-figure. That coupled with his anxiety will make it difficult for him to know what to do. He may seem like a bumbling idiot sometimes, but he will be dedicated to his family and he will never stop trying to get it right. He’ll be extra attentive with his sharpened hearing, and will try to teach/show the kits things he thinks are cool or interesting. This will of course include digging techniques, but also things like pretty feathers.
Fallensky will be real sweet with the kits. She'll make and keep promises with them, and try to be there for their every step. Falls is young and a first time parent, and will try not to fail them like she feels she's failed everyone else. As she raises the kits, she'll try to make them see the bright side of things, so that they don't have to go through what she's gone through. She'll try and keep them out of trouble, too. She doesn't want them to get exiled/into big trouble with Twighlightstar.
Form?
What form? There is no form! We want to see creativity and effort as these are an important ship for us!
There is no need to tag us as we will be checking this thread often!

Description of appearance
Blue-grey molly with smokey shaded tabby markings, small rounded ears with fluffy white tufts, and white banding on her tail and legs. She has white speckling on her ears, muzzle, & throat as well as stormy grey splotches on their flank and chest. Her fur is unusually fine and silky in texture, falling in long wavy strands over her pale pink skin. She has rather large, owl-like eyes, her left iris a pale blue and the right a deep crimson color. She has a black marking on her left hind leg resembling a broken heart. Her canine teeth are abnormally long and so is her tail.
Disabilities
Her left hind leg is lame, she cannot move it in any way so she often simply drags it along behind her on the ground. She also has Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder (ANSD), where the inner ear (cochlea) functions normally, but the auditory nerve fails to transmit sound signals to the brain in a timely or accurate manner. They have the most trouble with deciphering speech, the words distorted and difficult for her to understand. Of course, other sounds can be difficult for her to detect as well, but they are easier to understand than spoken communication. Over time, the condition will dissolve bit by bit until they about reach the half-way point of her apprenticeship, but there will still be notable effects she'll just have to live with. Due to her condition, she can't speak well, so she often won't speak at all. To communicate, she resorts to simple gestures, such as pointing to the prey pile to signal she's hungry or her nest to convey that they'll be going to sleep. When trying to relay something more complicated it'll often dissolve into a game of charades.
Overview of personality
Ghostie is a rather reserved and closed off character, even if she were able to speak with clarity she likely wouldn't be very vocal anyway. She enjoys her time alone, yet also cares about those around her in her own little way. If they invite you to sit in silence with them just know it's her way of showing she cares, they're not trying to be awkward. She often has difficulty travelling, although she loves to move, so her lame leg is a serious drawback for her. She hates it- and she also hates when other people touch it. Of course it's not like it hurts, they can't feel anything, but it is a bit of a sensitive matter. She doesn't like to be reminded of how she's lesser compared to her clanmates. Despite that, she's quite level-headed and sweet. Not much stresses her out, period. She's not easily riled up either, sharp comments don't hurt her- and you may be like "of course they don't, Stream. She can't understand them, duh!" But she understands the hostility behind the words, that is unless they say it with a non-hostile tone. However, with time comes experience, and they'll learn to pick up small details about expressions and body language. They are also quite neat, their wavy fur always smoothed perfectly into place.
Quirks / habits / additional info
↳ She often digs her claws into her lame leg whenever she zones out, which she does when she's feeling left out or upset.
↳ She often trips over her long tail and leg when trying to hurry places, making her a bit clumsy- especially in her kithood.
↳ She despises physical touch from strangers or anyone she isn't close to, like my girl will literally dodge people left and right if she has to. She doesn't mind as much when it's her family or friends, but it still isn't her favorite thing.
↳ As she doesn't talk much or verbally respond when others speak to her, others would likely assume that she's deaf or selectively mute.
Future plans
↳ I'd like for her to lose part of/all of her lame leg somehow in her apprenticeship, which she'd actually be thankful for (it would be weird if it were someone else, but that leg was holding her back).
↳ I want to get her a translator in the future, like a bestie that is especially good at reading their gestures and body language, which would help her communicate with others- especially when asking for training.
↳ Due to her dislike of physical contact, I'd like her to detest battle training.
↳ They might have a hard time with their training and might seek out training from their parents who understand them a bit better.
Future purrks
Mind reader- For reading others' expressions. Heightened perception (sight)- To make up for her hearing impairment. Fast learner- To help with apprenticeship requirements.
