@CrystalSakura: I can't remember Firestar's ceremony, but I think Cinderpelt at least came with him to the Moonstone...and I know fo sho that Echosong was with Leafstar when she gained her nine lives in Firestar's Quest. I'm pretty sure that medicine cats are at least there during the ceremonies.
If you guys need a picture, I have a truly wacked-out family tree? Wanna see it? xD
@AutumnSunsets: The Kalan already existed before Cinderstream came with lil baby Reed. Ashstir's mother's mother already made it.
@Shimmertail: I'm sorry for the death of your One True Pairing...but me? Kill Forest? *whistles innocently* Also, it's funny that you mention Timberkit, because in original role-play one of her kits was named Timberkit (although in rp she wasn't mates with anyone called Forest and there wasn't a Timber).
Also, I would again like to point out that my updates are not very long inbetween. Most webcomics/fics only update once a week, and mine are usually earlier than that. If we do a little math, perhaps we'll see. There are 52 weeks in a year. Divide that by 12 months and you get about 4.3 weeks in a month. Shattered is ten months and eight days old. That's about 43.14 weeks. We currently have 48 chapters. So...yeah. I generally update more than just once a week, so I don't really know why it would seem like it's been a long time for you guys...? Sometimes it's a bit more than a week, I know, but life gets in the way, or writer's block sets in, which isn't really my fault. xD
Love you guys as much as ever, though. <3 Also, I'd like to encourage voting on the poll (it's still pretty close despite about 2/3 of you voting for Chilled, because there haven't been many total votes). Also, I'd like to go ahead and give you gives a sneak peek of Chilled, in case it wins. Here's one of our main characters:
As the lil blurb says, this is Leopardpaw, found as a rogue on the territory. Sootkit/paw is our main character; her brother Spiderkit/paw is sort of like our Northstar in terms of how many chapters he'll receive, since the POV is going to bounce between the two of them. Leopardpaw will not receive any POV chapters, so she's kind of like...Frostfeather or Ravenwing. Important, but we don't stare into her mind or anything.
I'm very fond of her design, honestly, but enough about aesthetics. The actual character of Leopardpaw is puzzling; she seems nice enough on the outside, but she's a schemer, and doesn't hold back even when sparring with her Clanmates. She's very antisocial, and has an odd habit of watching the Clan; definitely a suspicious character, especially since she cares to share so little of her past. Most of Spiderkit/paw's chapters will revolve around his suspicion of her.
I think the chapter order will be Sootpaw, Sootpaw, Spiderpaw, Sootpaw, Sootpaw, Spiderpaw, etc. Sootpaw's the main focus, but Spiderpaw lets us see what's going on with the home front.
This is probably all really confusing (but hopefully interesting) since most of you guys don't know the broad strokes of Chilled's plot. Sorry, but it would be too spoiler-y for Shattered right now. xD
Uh, anyway, hope you enjoyed this lil glance. Sorry about the size of the picture, it won't format right. If you click on it, it'll be big and you can read the blurb on the side. ^^
Until next time~
