Briefing on Tickpaw
Tick Paws biography
First of all, TickPaw has some major issues with his mother striving to make her proud and by default those that his mother considers worth her time proud in addition. TickPaw’s worldview right now and his views on cats around him is that everyone but him and the high ranks are prey until proven otherwise and that TickPaw is no better until he proves himself. He naturally narrates others he hasn’t mentally deemed worth his time ‘prey-cats’ in his internal monologue (when I remember to do so) and has a shocking 0 active friends. As a kit he was extremely antisocial and the only way he communicated with someone was to mother, his family or when he was spoken to. TickPaw will be an entirely different cat altogether almost as his curse of endless hunger starts to become more and more present in his life day-to-day. Overall, TickPaw will try his best to maintain formality and will only be opening his much more relaxed and social side when someone he can truly trust is near. His more “relaxed and social side” in question is simply him talking a ton more and being a lot less tense and lack of expecting his mother to be lurking in the shadows.
Alongside his more social side he’ll absolutely strive to show off his purrks (Shadow Fiend, Lyrebirds lullaby) and actively use it to spook those close to him. He may also use it to lure cats towards him or use his shadow fiend to stare without being snapped at. Which moves to his next favourite thing- staring. If tickpaw would he’d stare until he’s swatted away by the victim, infinitely fascinated with those around him especially with the idea of those around him being more like prey to catch than actual cats.
Mothers brief
StoatLeap, his mother, also had a shocking 0 friends and considers everyone pathetic and weak. She unwillingly attempts to keep the family “tradition” going and later on will have another litter (which is her attempt #2 at keeping the tradition going.) she expected formal responses, good reaction times and constant effort to push themselves from her children, her prodigy and favourite child was RoseKit and she treated so horribly simply because she didn’t see potential in him.

What I’m looking for Personal connection wise.
Best Friends. - 0/2
Friends should be cats TickPaw can actually rely on and relax around, somecat that also allows for easy conversations with them. TickPaw isn’t going to be a necessarily easy cat to befriend, he is ridiculously wound up in the ideas Mother has fed him and overall his mind is only really set on progressing his training and making his mother proud. I’d love if TickPaws best friend could try offer new ideas on his surroundings and the cats around him, especially if they had their own ideas to offer. Overall, TickPaw would be an immaculate listener, constantly honing in on each word and stocking it up like a file, this more comes from a desperation to cling onto his friends (which in his head requires knowing everything he can about them). A best Fiend should also be somecat that TickPaw can entrust a large majority of his secrets and worries to, and someone he can fight for if they find themself in a battle. Alongside what TickPaw’s best friend must offer him, tickpaw also offers his own perks of veing friends with. Because of TickPaws much more relaxed demeanour around his friends he’d absolutely be down for pranks, mischief and more so a best friend of his would have perfect prank material for life!
Additionally they’d need to prove to TickPaw they’re worth his time, whether this just be being there for TickPaw or offering him a gift TickPaw refuses to change the way he views others.
friends - 0/4
TickPaw would be infinitely less sociable than he is to a best friend, but he’d still exchange a word or two and soak in the conversation with all his might. TickPaw absolutely does NOT want another friendless drag where he is stuck alone for ages with only Mother as his company. So he puts the bar pretty low for who can be his friend.
Neutral
These are cats who TickPaw adds his automatic view onto and stares at, analysing them like ants, with the uttermost focus. Cats who are neutral toward TickPaw are cats that he notes as the day to day average cat. No personal opinion or anger directed toward them.
Enemies. - 0/3
TickPaw can very very easily be rubbed the wrong way, so much as sneezing on his fur or expressing something he disagrees with will instantly make him dislike you. However he only takes true action if a cat goes out of their way to offend or annoy him, doing so invokes TickPaws acute ability to creep someone out with incessant unblinking staring and constantly judgemental glares. All topped off with comments, personal insults and mimicking their voice to perfection and repeating what they say. If a cat annoys TickPaw enough they might start finding thorns in their nest each night and or no nest at all.
Interactions i’m looking for.
Basically anything! Although I’d prefer if its more one on one conversations, maybe helping an elder out or other. I’d absolutely be down to roleplay TickPaw meeting a friend for the first time or how a cat and him becomes enemies, especially down to roleplay in general! I’m really eager to type more posts for tickpaw!

What sort of Interaction will it be?: A neutral one?

Name of cat: Mudslide

Ideas: Mudslide hasn't ever had the best relationship with her mother and constantly belittles her whenever she can. Not to mention, her mother actually dead, and even though Mudslide doesn't believe in Starclan, she's positive her mother went to the Dark Forest. I just think it would be interesting since her and Tickpaw's family views clash. While Mudslide isn't very social herself, she'd probably try and get Tickpaw as far away from their mothers ideologies as soon as possible. (PS: Mudslide is INSANELY quiet, and probably won't say anything more than three words per post. She also has lybirds lullaby as well oooo)

Private or public Thread: Public is fine!

Will it develop into becoming enemies/neutral/friends?: I think it'd start off as Tickpaw viewing Mudslide as an enemy because of their different views, so it might upset him. My goal is friends though lol.
