Cricketkit, the most sensitive kitten of the bunch. He shares a more similar appearance to his mother when it comes to his build–small, petite and almost bird-like–and he also has the same cropped tail as her! His fur is a light brown with orange spots decorating his pelt, while his underbelly and paws are white. He has blue-yellow eyes. (Acornkit's design from the hypokits.. described it as best as I could hejdhsd)
With Moonlight on the River,
Such a gentle young man. Cricketkit is a daydreamer, and you'll often find him lounging within the nursery beside his momma–it's difficult to get him to stray far from his family, especially his mother.
He's always got his head in the clouds, daydreaming and humming about the possibilities in life. He wants to become a big, strong warrior, just like his ma and pa! Some day, he wants to be deputy–but not a leader, because that's too scary.
Cricketkit is a sweetheart through and through, but sometimes he can be seen as a bit much. He's whiny and clingy–especially sensitive to his surroundings, too. He doesn't like to leave the nursery often, it's too cold out there, he says. The small fluffball doesn't have the energy to go out there, either. He'd much rather watch his siblings and the other kittens tousle with each other than get himself involved. Too much energy that he doesn't have–which is odd, for a kitten. The little guy has a heart that's too big for his body, even the smallest of playful jabs at him will have him sobbing for momma.
Upon first glance, you'd assume that he has anxiety, but it's something much more than that. When he struggles to breathe, it might seem like a panic attack, but no, it isn't due to anxiety–and that'll be made clear by the time he has his first, and last, seizure.
Everybody Dies.
And so does Cricketkit–the fading kitten.
Anyway, yeah, hopin' to get the dying baby lol. I don't really have a lot of time to rp as another cat rn, but I really want to be a part of this litter. I'd say he'd die around 2 moons old, specifically due to low blood sugar/hypoglycaemia.
I think it'd be interesting–if I do get this kitten, lol–if he visited his family in their dreams, frequently. I'd even get him the worldweaver purrk so he can leave stuff for his family to find raahhh I just love DEVASTATION!!!
Name: Antkit
Gender: Male
Appearance: Pheasantkit's ( looks suspiciously like Dragonflycliff )
Personality: Shy but a big showoff at the same time
Plot ideas?: meets his aunt dragonfly and asks why they look so similar
Other: Dragonflycliff will love them all equally
Mention: @spookywynds @boo!

“Sorry that I’m scared of thunder like a dog / I know that you love rain / but I cry when something shakes the walls / tail between my legs I scratch while you relax / ruffling feathers, watching storm clouds pass / hoping I’ll make you hate the thunder too / digging in my claws to make you hate me too”

Locust is a brown and orange torbie with yellow eyes like sunlit ice and slightly coarse fur. Often, she comes across os aloof or uninterested, but her mind is ready and she’s smarter than she lets on, using her more aloof nature to make others feel like they can trust her. Because of this, hop doesn’t make or keep friends easily, most finding the way hop will acquire information to be a breach of their trust. Hop doesn’t mean to be dishonest or betray trust, though, hop just isn’t very good at making friends the honest way, and will fall back into this habit again and again.

“I’m sorry that I roll over to my folks / it’s not that I’m ashamed but they keep me on the leash to choke / I’m a hunting breed and bird is all they eat / they sniff you out, they gnash their teeth / I’m a coward scared of living outside / even if it means I crush you at my side”

Because of her nature, many will find it odd to hear her more people pleasing tendencies. She tries very hard to be everything everyone expects of her - even if those expectations conflict with one another. She tried so hard not to disappoint anyone, that often she ends up disappointing everyone, and so she learns to hold others at an arm’s length. If she doesn’t let them close to her heart, then she can’t hurt them when she ultimately slips up and shows her ‘true self’ instead of the carefully crafted version of herself that she made to please them.

Plot Ideas
I’m thinking that if Locust is the one to die young, perhaps - because the kits will be born leafbare ish time - that maybe she gets kittencough or some other illness that refuses to get better. She just grows weaker and weaker by the day and there’s nothing that can be done about it until she passes during the night. Otherwise, for a maybe marginally more or less traumatic death (depending on how you look at it), hop could be picked up in the middle of camp by a hawk and taken away, never to be seen again. If hop doesn’t die, then I’d still like the hawk idea to happen, but someone gets to the hawk before it’s out of reach and rescues her, saving her life but leaving her with some nasty scars.

“Sorry that I don’t treat you like I should / I only lick my wounds, teeth bared and snap ‘you’re all that’s good!’ / If I chase you away I’m back to chasing tail, running circles after what was real / and maybe one day I’ll catch it and I’ll cry / wishing that little songbird was still mine.”
