RubbleRousers Demo Release - Play With Cat Genetics!

After several months in development, it's finally time for the RubbleRousers genetics demo to be released!

Ever wanted to see what your favorite OC couple's kits would look like? Want to design a new character? Or just want a sneak peek of what the RubbleRousers genetics system has to offer?

Then this demo is for you!

Feel free to share your creations with the demo! Lineart by @splasharooni, markings by @splasharooni and HeyRei (not on tumblr to my knowledge). All artists compensated for their work.

Thanks for playing!

Special thanks to the Sparrow's Garden Discord server for teaching me, like, everything I know about cat genetics.

I think a large factor in why the majority of fans tend to dislike “traveling books” is how the journey affects characters, or more accurately, how the journey doesn’t affect the characters. Usually (in Western media) journeys alter those who go on them. They may come back home in the end, but they’ve changed physically and/or psychologically, and it impacts the rest of their life. However, in Warrior Cats, journeys are treated as a “monster of the week” deal where they travel somewhere else to do a side quest and then arrive back to the Clans without changing. Instead of gaining a new mentality, their personality stagnates until the journey is over. Sure, they might lose someone, but they’ll return to a status quo soon enough. Once more, traveling books are almost guaranteed to not affect the arc in a major way. Unless the Clans are moving or a group joins the lake, you can flat-out erase them from existence and not lose anything. For example, the mountains are too far away to care about. Even in the “group joins the lake” point, Warrior Cats makes them retroactively relevant to the plot by including them in multiple novels; they’re rarely, if ever, introduced as genuinely important in their first appearance. The characters don’t develop and where they go doesn’t affect the story. This is why most traveling books fail.

People demonizing Dovewing for her romantic relationships in the early 2010s was wild. 12-year-old me couldn’t understand why people blamed her.

She’s a new apprentice being courted by a fully grown warrior. He meets up with her in an abandoned, isolated place in the dead of night and says he loves her and presses her to say it back. All of this is on their first date. Their relationship and dates are in secret. When they break up, he keeps trying to talk to her and date again. Huge red flags all around.

She rescues Icecloud and suddenly Bumblestripe considers her wife material. He courts her relentlessly, always trying to set up dates and gets angry when she inevitably lashes out because he can’t take no for an answer. She’s got Blossomfall, Cinderheart, Rosepetal, and her own mother Whitewing pressing her to date him. He continues this behavior for months. When they’re mates, he keeps pressing her to have children even when she states multiple times that her answer is no. He is trying to coerce her into having children.

It wasn’t until the Purdy incident that people finally backed off, but it’s awful that Dove was being harassed by two men who didn’t actually treat her like a person and somehow the fandom decided it was HER FAULT.

I'm not sure if this has been said before but one aspect to Warriors I literally cannot wrap my head around is that there is STILL a rule against medicine cats starting their own families, when the series has repeatedly and VERY explicitly established this rule as a BAD thing. There's just this weird disconnect between the narrative and the writing that I cannot wrap my head around.

The writers have never given us a story in which this rule has helped anybody or prevented any issue. Yet again and again they've only used this rule to establish "Literally has only ruined families and caused pain and heartbreak to our beloved characters." Yet for some reason they act like the clans still NEED this rule or...? Or what? They'll need help with their kits or something???

Like, not only does the rule have no actual benefit to the clans - as we have NEVER seen an instance in which a medicine cat having a family (under normal, socially accepted circumstance!) would seriously hurt others - but it is a rule formed from complete and utter idiocy to begin with! Not even a good reason! Like they could have given us a million different canonical stories behind why the rule exists, and they actually decided on something as stupid as.... Single teen mother with ADHD receives 0 help with her 4 kids by her entire community and cannot handle the stress....... LMFAOOO

They ACTUALLY expected us, the audience, to accept this as a valid reasoning for restricting the lives of literally every future medicine cat ever, and not an unfortunate individual circumstance. And THAT goes without even addressing the fact that Moth Flight literally just had the worst clanmates ever. The clans would never neglect to support any cat in helping to raise their kits, they are groups who rely on working together for god's sake. We literally have cats who do nothing EXCEPT help with that. And I think the writers KNOW this, so they quiet literally gave Moth Flight - specifically - the most unsupportive, idiotic clanmates ever just to excuse it. Like its actually lunacy

Time does not stop, and so the clan must move forward. They welcome Cavedew as their newest warrior, honoring him for his wit. For possibly the first time ever, Siltsplash decides to take a break, and thus his younger brother Erminepaw is apprenticed to Chickadeeblur.

Now an apprentice, Erminepaw is not shy about the fact that he has more interest in hanging out with Songpaw than he does in training to be a warrior.

Unfortunately for Songpaw, this means he won't be getting a break from his new crush anytime soon.

Meanwhile, Kingfur and Sockeyepelt come across a trespassing loner.

Axel is accepted into Loudclan, and takes the clan name Axeldawn.

Short and sweet! Just what we need after last moon! Erminepaw give our poor boy a break he's gonna have a heart attack. It's not like it's Songpaw's first crush, he has a big ol crush on Rosehiptree, but that's different, that's not something that could actually happen, Rosehip's older and cooler and way out of his league, so there's no pressure there. But Erminepaw, Erminepaw is right there with him all the time and now he's tall and he has no concept of personal space and Songpaw doesn't have any idea what to do about it. Also don't believe for a second that Siltsplash didn't know what they were doing. Out of all of Songpaw's possible mate choices in the clan Ermine is their favorite, so they are more than willing to assign him to herb gathering whenever he wishes. Sockeyepelt, on the other hand, has been officially ordered by Chickadeeblur to "give Axeldawn some space". She's just excited to have someone new to fawn over, Juneaucliff, Jaggedtail, and Peakpatch were getting boring, especially with Jagged and Peak spending so much time together. Axeldawn doesn't really mind the attention, he'd just like some time to adjust to clan life first. Anyway, loving seeing all of the people breaking out their detective skills on the last post! The correct answers, at least the ones I was intentionally foreshadowing, were Jagged x Peak, Song x Ermine, and Song x Rosehip. Not all of these new crushes are going anywhere, Song's crush on Rose is obviously fully one sided until he grows up, but they're fun while they last!

How did Wildfire and Fierce fall in love?

Avatar

It was a lot of little things along the way, but this moment about three moons into their trip was probably the most pivotal. It's also how Fiercestripe got her scar!

This ask is pretty old but I was feeling inspired and had this idea formulated and wanted to draw this out. My science class is done so expect an ask-answering post tomorrow probably? And the new update just after Halloween!

always makes me uncomfortable when wc fans genuinely seem to think mapleshade is an entitled cunt for being in a halfclan relationship and wanting her children to grow up in thunderclan without issue

like i disagree that frecklewish deserved to go to hell obviously and the way shes treated is super misogynistic but why are we acting like you hate trauma victims if you say that her dehumanizing and enabling in the exile of children is a bad thing (while simultaneously acting like mapleshade is just some entitled hysterical bitch for not going to the bridge) like youre just adjusting what flavor of misogyny you like while playing into the xenophobia the series relishes in. be for real

Loudclan - Moon 29: Part 3

Things are gonna get a bit darker than they have been in the second half of this moon. Be warned and check the tags! Happy Spooky Season!

The sun is ever-present in the summer sky. It sits vigil alongside the clan. Soon after the bodies arrive at camp a patrol sets out to track the rogues, but finding that they have already crossed Shadedclan's territory, it is decided that the opportunity for revenge has passed. They'll double patrols and wait to see if the murders try to cross the territory on their way home. Many are upset, but few argue. As the sky begins to lose it's duskiness, the vigil is ended, the bodies buried, and the clan cats left to filter back into camp at their own pace. Wildfirecry excuses himself to clear his head, while Dancepaw attempts to bridge the gap with the only brother he has left.

Seeing Rosehiptree will be left alone in the burial place, Songpaw decides to stay for a while.

It takes Wildfirecry three days to find the farm cats.

There are Forestclan traditions that were never passed on to Loudclan. Rites that were deemed too dark to touch the newborn clan and thus were cast aside. But here, miles past the valley territories, they live on.

Wildfirecry returns to Loudclan's camp a week after the vigil having lost two lives. No one questions where he has been. The scent of rancid dried blood still lingers despite a fresh coat of oil, and his wounds, while closed, are unmistakably fresh. The clan returns to an uneasy normalcy.

[Whoo! I did it! This moon was INCREDIBLY hard for me. The first part relies so much on my dialogue skills, which, is the part of comic-making that comes least easily to me, and the second part is super experimental, which was so much fun, but also mentally tiring. (On that note please let me know if it's like impossible to see. I meant for it to be a bit difficult to make out, but it's hard to gage between my ipad and my laptop whether it will be readable for all of you. I can fiddle with the color grading tomorrow if necessary.) And finally, Rosehip's experience here is really, really close to my heart. That means that her scenes here are ones that I really wanted to write, but also that I had to take a couple of breaks to make sure that I wasn't wearing myself down too much, so sorry that it took longer than I thought and I haven't been able to answer as many asks as I had hoped to. Anyway, despite early difficulty I had a GREAT time finishing this moon up and I'm happy with how it turned out! Songpaw and Rosehiptree are keeping the trauma dump to best friends pipeline alive and I love them for it. Erminekit is kinda being a brat but he really just wants to be there for his best friend and everyone is getting in the way! He doesn't really get the concept of "giving someone space". As far as Moon 30 I have a science class that I'd like to get finished by the end of the month, so it will probably be a minute. Hope you guys enjoy!]
