mending a broken heart [ dusklion love finder re-do! ]
i threw up a finder for this awhile ago buuuuut things have changed, plots have been plotted, and i figured it was about time to re-do it and actually pick a few other cats! plus, i've finally settled on dusk's identity as a bisexual feral racoon, so now it's open to multiple genders! make sure to read all of this; there's a lot of key information!
[ for this who have already applied and were accepted in the last finder or on discord (applebees, smudge), no need to apply again unless you want to change their desired role! ]
essentially what i am looking for is to test the dynamics of her with others. however this won't just be for her future mate - because a plot is currently underway where dusklion gets her heart shattered due to her current crush ending up with her brother (gasp!). this will cause the deputy to shut down for a little while and instead become somewhat of a "play-the-field" type. for this i will be looking for 2-3 cats that dusk can have non-serious flings with:
- riverclan / atari members (depending on plot development, dusk may not be at the "play the field" stage during exile so i may not choose any outsiders!)
- young to middle-aged warriors (i've realized i'm not all that focused on specifics moons so long as they're not, like, super young skjdfhsd)
- confident in some way; dusk is drawn to this as well as recklessness
- they will likely not end up together; dusk will detach herself if she feels the cat developing actual feelings
- dusk will constantly flirt with them / use them to make her current crush jealous!
now for her main love interest and eventual mate. i've got a few cats on my list that i'm currently testing dynamics with, but wanted to spread this net again and select a few others. for this cat, the same rules above apply, in addition to:
- thick skin: it is preferred this cat doesn't break easily, or get upset with dusk when it takes her awhile to get over her first heartbreak.
- if they are an outsider / atari member, they must join riverclan!
- active !!! this is very important; i would prefer that dusk only has one major heartbreak!
- as much as i love polycules, dusk is a very jealous type and would not do well in them unfortunately ;w;
- a cat able to see through the charade that dusk puts on to a cat who just wants to be accepted and loved deep down <3
that's about it! unfortunately i won't be able to select everyone, and if it doesn't seem like they'll click i likely won't accept. but keep in mind if they're not selected for this, i'm open to dusk having friends! she's a rather prickly cat though, very opinionated and often speaks without thinking, so any friends would kind of have to understand that heh.
below is a form that you can fill out! normally i don't do forms, but i'm in an organizational mood ^^
name-
gender-
general age-
allegiance (riverclan / atari / outsider group)-
brief personality-
role wanted-
plot ideas (if any)-
without further ado, let the applications begin! no need to mention or quote me in this please!! i will be checking often and i will either quote, vm, or pm the applications that interest me!

--------------------------------------
ANTLERBRANCH
Frenimies > Friends > Crush > Lovers
Hello hello!! I am here applying Antlerbranch for Dusk's eventual mate!!
About
Antlerbranch is a 31 moon RiverClan tom, who was made to become a potential mate for Wisteriawren!! You know how thats gonna end up lmao. He, like dusk, is going to be heartbroken as this is his second major heartbreak [the first happened in his backstory], and I am applying him to become the eventual mate for Dusklion!!
Basic Plot Idea
Antler is very grumpy and upset about what happened w/ wisteria, due to his past, meaning that he will be very irritable and also be doing the same thing as dusk, getting with her just to make Wisteria jealous. Over time, Antler will befriend dusk, possibly falling for her and causing them to be mates eventually. I am all for a slowburn, lots of rps together slowly warming up to each other and slowly falling for each other [and possibly reject their feelings]. Over that time, they talk about anything, just learning more abt each other. Then after a bit, they crush on each other [antler will be denying it], and eventually they confront each other, and eventally ends up becoming mates.
Why?
I first made Antler for Wisteria's mate [we both know how that ended up], and I thought that it would be fun to apply him here, due to them both going through the same thing with Wisteria. I'm pretty active and write semi-long posts with antler, and I think that they could mesh together pretty well, both being jealous and angry at what happened [and antler being grumpy 24/7]
Final note
I,,,, Suck at applications. So uh sorry if this isn't that well. I don't really know how to make a nice application so apologies.

____________________ The Ace of Spades
WIP character site made on carrd
____
Name: Goldfish
Gender: AFAB Female
Age: 28 Moons
Sexuality: Biromantic Ace
Appearance: Medium-Furred Tortoiseshell with yellow eyes and scattered scars
Allegiance: Riverclan
Role Wanted: Eventual Mate [If not, Duskflirt is fine]
____________________
Personality:
Goldfish hasn't shown her true personality in so long even I myself Am discovering her true attributes and traits as a whole. Depression And anxiety dealt her a difficult hand during Riverclans Leadership Crisis, leaving her to stumble and try to catch up. Goldfish as a whole Is the embodiment of a social star, and yet... she has no interest in Making lots of friends. In fact, she's more interested in staying close With her good friends and family. The Ace of Spades works hard in Attempt to be a reliable, trustworthy cat that others feel comforted With her friendly, jokester nature. Flirt with her, and she may flirt right Back, although she is focused on keeping it in a casual, joking manner Rather than an actual flirt. The Ace of Spades enjoys a good time, a good Laugh, and a good friend. She loves anything athletic, as it's how She relieves stress. During bad situations she's a quick thinker who Acts on Instincts and logic. Later on, however, the emotions will hit Her and she may bottle them up, making Goldfish exhaust herself Physically in order to keep the emotions from tearing from the molly. When she breaks down, she does it alone or with a cat she's close to (At the moment, those cats are @/alec's Jayfrost and @/Bean's Spottedstream), just to feel as though there's someone who understands Her. Her persona is simplified further on her carrd.
Friends to Best Friends, Best Friends to Lovers
I can imagine that Goldfish and Dusklion develop a solid friendship that Quickly turns to being best friends. As time passes, they slowly start to Grow closer and closer, until some cats may assume they're mates. Both, I assume, will deny this. But as time passes, they do indeed gain crushes On the other cat. Goldfish desperately ignores it, and instead solidly keeps Things friendly. Eventually, however, I can see a possible heartfelt talk of Lost loved ones, whether they're alive or not, where Goldfish feels its getting To be too much, feeling like she's betraying her Deceased mate Pepperbounce, And abruptly ditches Dusklion. The next day, however, she will plead for her Forgiveness and after a possible argument say why she left. Then... she'll Tell Dusks she loves her. And it begins the next chapter in their lives.
Plot Ideas
• Goldfish Introduces Sea/Shellkit to Dusklion, then just leaves to see what
Happens lmao.
• Perhaps training apprentices together would work!
• Goldfish teaches Dusklion how to climb trees! Whether it go wrong or not...
• Some messing around is in the foreseeable future!
• A Heartfelt Talk as said previously!
I'm open to anything else as well!
____________________
Thats my silly application for Goldie! I hope you enjoyed reading about her. As for activity, Goldfish is one of my mains and is very important to me. I'm on at least once every day whether it's to check in and write replies or to chat :3 I'm not the greatest with applications, but I hope you enjoyed mine nonetheless!
Good luck to everyone applying! <3

fallowfeather
a light-brown she-cat with white ears, paws, and belly. the tip of her tail is also white. her fur is striped with darker brown and her eyes are green.
female , afab , she / her
fallow is one of the sweetest cats in the world. she's very quiet, but gets talkative when with cats she loves or when she's asked about her interests. she's been a member of riverclan since birth, but she had a traumatic kithood and cannot remember her parents. she doesn't want to know.
fallow has obsessive-compulsive disorder. this manifests in her being very worried about the ones she spends her time with and loves, to the point where she can spiral into believing that her loved ones are in trouble when they are really not. she keeps it under control when she can, but when she spirals she removes herself from the situation to make sure no-one knows she gets bad. her compulsions drive her to count things over and over again, draw the same patterns into dirt over and over again, and repeat words and phrases over and over again. she believes this will keep her loved ones safe.
role of choice is eventual mate. why would they work together, you may be asking? fallow is incredibly supportive. she would make sure dusk doesn't work herself too hard. if it wasn't obvious already, she is a huge empath. she feels for everyone and is extremely caring and sweet, which means she will always be there for dusk. she would be able to notice when dusk was feeling bad, even if she didn't say it, and she'd help her out in every way she possibly could. she would know how to break down dusk's walls if she sensed she wanted a relationship, because she is pretty apt at recognizing emotions. she would absolutely be standing up for dusklion whatever she wanted or needed.

Re: mending a broken heart [ dusklion love finder re-do! ]
okay so hear me out, i wasn't originally gonna post but stag is just the type of guy that if ANYONE flirts with him - even casually - it'll either go way over his head or he'll be super flustered. so not necessarily adding him here as a genuine crush/love interest for dusk (unless you think otherwise xD) but i think any possible interactions would be fun as she rebounds LOL. okay anyway here it is:
name- stagheart gender- male (tomcat - he/him) general age- ~50 moons (around middle aged-ish warrior i think??) allegiance (riverclan / atari / outsider group)- riverclan! RAHH brief personality- rough around the edges, heart of gold under the surface; gruff and a little grumpy at times, but means well. endearingly awkward at being comforting to others or with physical touch. loyal to an absolute fault; will fight and die for riverclan anyday. he's relatively confident in his own abilities until it comes to being gentle... then he's like ahh, out of his comfort zone. but like fighting and whatnot? he's got a bit of an ego xD role wanted- perhaps one of dusk's casual flirts as she explores 'playing the field' or whatevah. can literally be as unserious as you want (i.e. wouldn't even have to count for your 2-3 because maybe they only have like one or two interactions or something?? hehe totally leaving that up to you if you pick him o7) plot ideas (if any)- like i said, stag will become incredibly confused and flustered if he picks up on dusk flirting with him, which i can see as an endearing back-and-forth going on. he might be oblivious or doubtful at first that any cat would even find him nice enough to compliment, let alone the clan's deputy. and, despite dusk being younger than him, he always looks up to his deputies/leaders so he holds incredible respect and admiration for dusk for being loyal and sympathized/vouched with her with the whole fallownose thing. they also have sorta similar personalities (he's just way more coolheaded than her when it comes to thinking/taking action) and he's more than capable of taking/delivering some sass. also uber-loyal like her, just wants the best for the clan and will do just about anything for it. including all those details to show what kinda interesting conversations they may have. if she'd ask him to do anything to help (border patrol, hunting, herbs, scouting, WHATEVER) he'd be right there to do it, which might leave room for some sorta interaction.
so idk, if you're looking for more unserious candidates or fun things to try out, here he is xD. i could just definitely see a few cute interactions, nothin' big, that would simultaneously shake him up while also boosting his ego hehe. or any other ideas you have i'd probably be up for it!

Re: mending a broken heart [ dusklion love finder re-do! ]
REDWATER
// RC // She/Her // Warrior // 20 Moons //
even I’m surprised I’m putting her in here
Redpaw stalked through the dark, silence cloaking the clearing. Her pupils dilated with interest when she saw a small lump lying on the forest floor… that’s when she realized… it wasn’t a lump. It was a body. She sniffed the air and approached the body carefully… and realized with a gasp. It wasn’t just any cat. It was…Her brother’s body. “Finpaw? Finpaw!”
INTRODUCTION
Hello @/taillow! I’m @/constellation, and I’ve got a cat for you. Her name is Redwater. You’ve interacted with her a few times, and Dusklion and her haven’t really been… the closest. Or even close. At all. Red’s old personality, one of sass and anger and bossiness, is pretty much gone now, though! It’s been replaced by a huge amount of sadness—oops! I hope you enjoy reading this application, I spent a lot of time on it!
WHO IS SHE
Redwater is a pan female of 20 moons. She ages every month on the 7th, her nickname is Red. Her favorite things are:
- fishing
-fighting (see more later)
- eating trout
- being alone
Or at least… they were. After falling for Dusklion, Red’s dark heart slowly softened… like butter left outside.
THE ROLE
I want red to be a main love interest/real crush. Red’s never had any mates/crushes before, and barely even any friends and I would like to have her in love plots of some sort. She’s recently started blaming herself for everything, like the murder of her brother, the disappearance of her best friends, and the death of her mother when Red was born.
RIVERCLAN
Redwater is a RiverClan cat, and has mostly RiverClan relatives. Not that she has many of those. Red has almost no friends, and the only family she has left is her siblings. She did have Willowheart and Fadedshade; but they left RiverClan after a huge fight with Red. Redwater blames herself for them not coming back.
Red’s brother, Finpaw was murdered by some cat during his apprenticeship. Red blames WindClan for his death and has been hostile towards the rabbit-eating cats since then.
PERSONALITY
Redwater was a bossy, sassy, full-of-herself jerk cat for moons after she hit her warrior name. She was snarky, and didn’t obey anyone. She even loved fighting, and was really good! In trianing.
Red’s terrible attitude lessened a bit after that, but she was still hard to manage. Until the RiverClan exile began. Redwater was mauled by a WindClan Tom, so badly she was weakened. Redwater vowed to never fight again, unless she had to. She began spiraling into a pit of despair, her annoying self lost and a new sad, anxious Redwater emerging.
Wait… Redwater and Dusklion?!?
Yes. I’m as surprised as you. Red and Dusklion have had their disagreements, which makes these plots EVEN MORE FUN. I think. Who knows, really.
When It Starts To Emerge
I was thinking Red and Dusk could talk about how Redwater was so sad during the exile. Red will spill all the things—like her friends’ disappearance the death of Finpaw, her mother’s death and how she’d been beaten by that WindClan cat. Dusklion might tell her that Red can always come to Dusklion when she needs to talk to anycat. And red feels so grateful. So, so grateful.
When They Realize
Redwater begins to become a little bit softer, and tries to interact with Dusklion more and more. Dusklion returns this favor, and they end up spending a lot of time together. Redwater has some feelings she’d never felt before… and she likes them.
Redwater padded up to Dusklion, anxiety making her heart pound. I hope she doesn’t decline… Redwater gulped… Dusklion was amazing. Redwater was practically a worm compared to her. “H-hey Dusklion! Want to… go hunting?” internal face-slap. That sounded meek.
Conclusion
As you can see, Red’s a hopelessly confusing cat, even I can’t decide whether or not Red is angry, sad, etc. I hope she’s picked! Thank you for reading
@/constellation smiles at you then fades away w/ the dawn
