─ x moons: FROSTBITE xx SOME GUY (NPC); sibling to PTARMIGANKIT GRACEKIT & WOLFKIT; kit of shadowclan
✦ blissful, spiritual, self-assured, odd, superstitious, intellectual, benevolently morbid
─ poppykit comes into this world as if she is not a full-inhabitant of it, perhaps more like its neighbor. much of her time is spent in her own head, her attention flitting only briefly to those around her. her imagination is a wide expanse of candy-colored dreams, and while she's excited to share it with others, she hates being pulled into the dreary and monotonous drone of reality.
─ poppykit enjoys learning, especially about starclan and of drifting theoretical questions, but seems to be unambitious in applying any knowledge to the real world and completely unconcerned with the usefulness of her intellectual pursuits. after an experience in her kithood, poppykit will become interested in the subject of death and nature, bringing up oddly morbid topics at inappropriate times.
─ they view their emotions with the same detached, flitting intellectual interest as they approach everything else, floating briefly through vague moods she often has trouble putting a solid paw on naming specifically. they are remarkably idealistic, and more often than not have a blissfully positive outlook on life, such that negative emotions seem to completely blindside her and are met with confusion and disdain.
─ poppykit carries herself with the self-assuredness of a child who knows they live under the blessing of starclan, constantly finding omens of good fortune and blessing all around her, and seemingly oblivious to harsh atmospheres. though, maybe somewhere deep down she has an awareness of her trouble with connecting with other cats personally, and her bubbly ignorance is in part intentional.
✦ misc.
─ deaf in one ear
─ will not speak until 2 or 3 months old
─ plot: poppykit has a near-death experience as a young kit, getting scooped up by an owl and nearly flown away, but is saved by a clanmate. she still sustains claw injuries and a concussion from being dropped from mid-air and lives in the medicine den for a bit. it is then that she acquires an imaginary friend, believing herself to be benevolently haunted by the deceased shadowclan apprentice, poppypaw. she will also be convinced that she has a special connection with starclan, believing herself to live within their explicit blessing. (use of poppypaw approved by rai)
─ often found whispering, singing, or humming to themself and/or inanimate objects
─ unconsciously tilts head quite often to better listen with their good ear
✦ motifs and aesthetics.
─ little red riding hood, moths, red horizon at sunrise, barn owls, small footprints in snow, tea parties with teddy bears, "the girl in the mirror is not me", snowflakes getting stuck in eyelashes, hearing giggles in an empty house, paper fortune tellers, holding seances in middle school bathrooms
─ playlist ! & pinterest !
