Robinswoop - Tumblr Posts
Like I mentioned before, Mallowcloud takes Hallowpaw in as he relates to her. As an apprentice, he and his littermates decided to have a race to the top of the gathering cliff. Mallowcloud slips and falls into the water below before being rescued by a Coveclan apprentice (Sootear, then Sootpaw), sustaining an injury that leaves him with an unbalanced gait and a fear of water. He also then starts to realize that he can make accurate predictions through cloudwatching.
“What’s the report on prey today, Mal?” “Good day for birds. You get a robin, Robin.” “Oh, funny!”
Even though he’s usually a bit skittish and reserved, he’s got a dry, punny sense of humor (some cats don’t realize he’s joking). It comes out more when around his brother Robinswoop, though he remains stoic around Honeyshine. The race was her idea, after all, and he doesn’t want to get tangled up in her disastrous ideas of “fun”.
“What if they find out?” “Well, I don’t think Turtlestar will mind much anyways. There was always talk that Wavestar probably had kits outside of the clan with how relaxed things were. ‘Sides, your dad’s the leader and he doesn’t seem like the kinda guy to kick you out.”
So... this has been a pairing I’ve been thinking about for a while. After Sootear saves Mallowcloud, the two become friendly at gatherings. A playful nudge from Soot, a rare smile from Mallow... oh no, what are these feelings? Mallowcloud goes out to gather herbs and Sootear just happens to wander on by... Sootear is more calm whereas Mallowcloud tends to get in over his head with worry, so when his beloved black-and-white fluffball expresses concerns, he does his best to ease him.
Robinswoop would be the first of Mallowcloud’s family to introduce himself to Sootear. He’s just a very friendly guy. He is also very small as he takes after Ryestar. I personally think that Robin’s positive reputation would make him the best candidate for deputy to the more stoic Snowstar in the future.
Also, an accurate depiction of Sootear’s reaction to meeting Hallowpaw for the first time.
Next up will be some stuff about Creekpaw’s family. Oakclaw in particular had some personality development, but not necessarily the good kind...
