Hello welcome to this mini-plot I've been debating for a bit cause I was waiting for there to be an available queen for the kit to be taken cared of!
With Noor's permission this kitten will be raised alongside Echolight's kits from THIS litter.

(Your kit here spodljifbjv, ty @/its_oliverr for the draw,,,crying)

Dandelionwish is WindClan's medicine cat, whether he likes it or not, with his mentor exiled one moon into his training he's been carrying the burden of the clan's welfare alone and has been doing his best although it's clear hes a little over his head. He'll never admit it outloud but he's terribly lonely in the medicine cat den with only reoccuring patients to keep him company.
One day while out near the thunderpath he spots a loner queen that had been hit by a car and feeling unsettled at the idea of leaving her to be trampled after what happened to Briarstar he goes to pull her into the ditch where he realizes from the scent of milk she has kits somewhere.
Unfortunately he is too late on the scene to save the majority of the litter with two long dead when he finally locates them nearby, but one kitten survives and he brings them back to WindClan with him. Dandelion will give them a name and be very protective and keep an eye out on them and once they're weaned he takes full responsibility for them and makes them a nest in his den. This kitten will be the only cat keeping him grounded at times, forcing him to maintain his morality despite the hardships in WindClan and doing his best to remain the cat he is rather than be warped into a cat he isn't.​


Quick Rules
  • Not FCFS, I will be a little picky!
  • Genetics are a free-for-all, any appearance is fine!
  • Include basics on the form but otherwise you don't need to be too crazy detailed.
  • Kit will be playable at 2 moons, ages realistically on the 29th of each month.
    • A 'birthing thread' will be made that is just them being found and brought to camp, once that's up you're free to play them immediately.
    • Kittens will have an aunt & uncle in @SHREWPAW & @THYMEPAW (and although inactive a 'grandpa' in @HARE )
  • The name will be required to be some kind of flower. Any kind of flower will do with bonus points to Daisy as an option.
    • Currently in WindClan there is a wisteria & periwinkle so those are the two offlimits ones. (Rose is also tentative)
  • Just to be clear this kitten is not being raised or trained to be his future apprentice as that's much too far ahead to plan. He will instead be a parent to them and consider them family!
    • This does not mean they are not elligible to apply whenever MCA interest checks go out though, you're still welcome to but this gives you no more a chance than it does anyone else.
Choosing Date: The 29th, one week from today.​

❝ search through the stars to get through the night, i can tell you're itching, i can see it in your eye. good morning sunlight, let me down slow ; don't ask me what i want, i can tell you want to go — HEY MAGNOLIA, WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND ? ❞
the essentialists, magnolia .


MAGNOLIA, n.
/ mag · now · lee · uh / embraces both deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs, with most species having thin, smooth bark and large leaves and flowers. valued for their large and fragrant white, yellow, pink, or purple flowers, and breathtaking leaves.
lit. soft and subtle in color yet strong in appearance, magnolia symbolises perseverance & love of nature. its tree is very strong, thus, the strength of character is often associated with magnolias.


— magnoliakit ; magnoliapaw, magnoliawind / cisgender male, he / him pronouns only
⤷ named by dandelionwish for the way his fur mirrors the color of magnolia blooms, warrior name will be decided as he ages. considering deer - based suffixes, as i'd like sootstar ( if still in leadership at the time of his warrior ceremony ) to name him for his unwillingness to fight. -wind suffix will have to be earned, and left up to the leader at the time to decide.
— npc xx npc ; nursed alongside echolight's litter / found and adopted by dandelionwish
— windclan kitten / aspiring moor runner, afraid of tunneling
— heartchart / pinterest / playlist —————————————— ❝ BAD LUCK LULLABIES ❞



lh mitted lilac sepia w/ deep hazel eyes / smells like heather and clove ⬥ / like dawn. stretches of watercolor purple - silver over an endless heaven, edges softened by rain heavy clouds hanging low over rolling moorlands. when he's first found, magnolia is little more than a wild ball of lilac and white, his bulk consisting mostly of thick, kittish tufts of downy fur. he will be a small thing, standing roughly shoulder height of the average clan cat with limbs that still seem too long for his body. as he ages those lilac - tinged limbs darken in color, the bulk of his coat deepening from blue - white to a warm silver brown. his toes remain a mitted white, with an ivory chin stark against the deep lavender hue of his facial features. as testosterone chips at cherubic baby fat he will be revealed to be sharp - featured, neatly domed and boyish, forever tilted downward and looking up through heavy lashes & long, billowing eyebrow whiskers. his nose is a mottled pink - purple around the porcelain blaze that streaks up from his muzzle to a point just above large, doe - like chestnut eyes. magnolia is forever bird - boned and delicate limbed in appearance, though hidden amidst this thicket of fluff is muscle hardened and lean, lying close enough to give the impression of someone willowy and coltish despite being a size shrunken down. his coat is downy soft, silken and well - kept on principal, seeming to curl outward where wispy, dovelike strands of lilac fur end. around his throat is the most notable of his traits — a thick, light ruff of smoke lilac that follows down his slim belly, ending in a point at the underside of his haunches. and finally, his tail: a long, plume - like feather of a thing, lighter at the bottom where lengthy fur flares out, ivory - tinged.
— image is a fur color reference only. defining traits will be long, flowing fur with a thick throat ruff mimicking magnolia petals, soulful eyes and the white blaze on his muzzle.
— positive: imaginative, quick - witted, compassionate, charismatic, exceedingly strong morals negative: conniving, over-empathetic, bull - headed, loyal, indecisive / if you were to meet magnolia, you would initially assume him soft - spoken and nervous. he's lamblike, both in physique and not — and while growing up he will be a primarily shy child, ducking around the limbs of those he cares for most. despite it this boy will be raised with good old fashioned manners and though he has little interest in socialization in early kithood, he is far from timid. he is curious, imaginative, almost too - much so. a child with a passion for bugs and stars, he will spend most of his time weaving stories to anyone who will listen, tinged with dreams of being the best windclan warrior there ever was. as he grows and realizes the morals instilled within him do not settle well under sootstar, he will grow quieter about his ambitions. what he lacks for in size, magnolia will learn to make up in pure wit and cunning — naturally charismatic, soft - spoken and inherently warm as he comes of age, magnolia will be a rare look into civility in windclan. while he may present himself as soft and subdued, magnolia is intelligent, almost frighteningly so. with his frequent spasms and soft, stilted drawl, he is frequently taken to be far dimmer than he truly is. it's a mask he curated carefully over the moons of his youth ; a bystander, albeit one in the name of peace. he will be a confidant, someone to seek out and vent to, a star - blinded child of poor circumstance . . but this is not to say he will be delicate. over time he learns not to be lofty in his ideals — he was not raised to be weak - willed and it shows in his stance. he is not gullible, not naive. reaching warriorhood, he will be swift, hard - working ; he dreams of running the moors, racing the winds and rabbits. he pulls his weight with pleasure and it will show in quick, powerful limbs, muscles eventually thick and lean from overuse.
— struggles with aphasia, difficulty swallowing & speaking at times. prone to limb spasms and seizures from epilepsy born of acute brain injury.
MOTIFS | ❝ rotting apple cores, open plains, dried wheat, warm browns & off-whites, quiet thunderstorms in the southern countryside, two - headed cattle, cotton, dripping honeycomb. takes inspiration from the poem two headed calf by laura gilpin. finding a brighter side in the 'freakish'.
POTENTIAL PLOTS —
• when mag is found, he'll be on the very brink of death. at some point be it in camp with echolight or shortly after he's found by thunderpath, he will pass away — only to be brought back by dandy stimulating his breathing again, but the minutes he was left without oxygen will leave him with an anoxic brain injury.
he will have aphasia, often struggling to fully complete a sentence. seems to get stuck on certain words or mix his terms up. though a notable speech impediment in kithood, he will not seem to mind or even notice most of the time. will take some time to speak, but i'd love a thread of his first word,,​
• as he grows, he will aspire to be a moor runner, traversing the hills and hunting rabbit on speed alone. he will beg to train under a runner despite being just below average in size and will have high, high hopes — that will be crushed when, upon his apprenticeship, his mentor will discover that he is unable to run long distances without ' tripping ' over nothing ( muscle spasms ). he will instead be made a tunneler.
— this isn't a plot so much as a character device but i would really like for dandy to instill his ethical code that magnolia will eventually cleave to like some cleave to their gods. he'll be lawful good, but he will either learn directly or construct his own moral compass based on his current clan environment . . .
