yep [prompt in coms even tho I didn't want to make up a prompt *sobbing* sowwy mods]

(note: this oc is missing one of its front legs. That just wasn't an option with this picrew)

Stoatsneer of ShadowClan (it/its) had split off from its patrol to check the RiverClan border. It preferred lone patrols; anything it could do could be done a thousand times easier without other warriors in the way. Its nose wrinkled as the damp air of RiverClan wafted over its tongue.
Then it caught sight of movement.
Stoatsneer's fur bristled as it turned towards the little cream flicker. It followed it to right beneath a tree on, thank StarClan, RiverClan territory. "Ivoryhaze." it called over, tailtip twitching and eyes narrowed with suspicion. "What are you doing out this late? This close to ShadowClan territory?" Stoatsneer sounded almost smug, voice bearing a sharp edge of hostility.

"Alright! You're not in pain or sore or anything, are you?" he asked softly.

"Nope." Phantom pains hadn't been a thorn in its bedding for the past day, thank StarClan.

"Lovely!" he purred. "Ah, I believe the others are coming back for you. I should go."

With that, Ivoryhaze bounded off.

Stoatsneer's ears pricked. So they were. It sighed -- so much for its alone time -- and headed back towards the sound of the group. It didn't limp, or if it did, it was hardly noticeable. It'd walked this way for nearly its whole life.
It had never understood why cats had fretted over it so constantly in its kithood. It'd lost that leg when it could hardly walk normally, and it could get around just as well as any cat when it grew. Still, there were those who muttered 'what a shame Stoatkit could never be a normal warrior.' It had proven them wrong then; it was never going to be trailing Ivoryhaze to the Moonpool or be curled up rotting its three good legs away in the elders' den. It was here, proud and strong and capable as ever, on its own patrols as its own warrior. A warrior willing and able to climb. Stoatstar would be real one day. Stoatstar was within reach.

But for now, Stoatsneer would have to do.
It shook away its self-indulgent thoughts.

Ivoryhaze padded back to the tree he had been perched in, clawing his way into the tree.

The warrior eventually found its patrol again, led by one of the few authorities it almost genuinely admired, senior warrior and Stoatsneer's former mentor, Stinkbugpurr. She was a soft, nihilistic she-cat with an appearance befitting of her nature; thin, scarred, and graying, with the white of her face not at all dissimilar to the look of a skull, but with such warm yellow eyes. It was hard to believe that in her younger seasons she'd been a vicious fighter. Stoatsneer had to admit her personality once sickened it, how a cat could be so effortlessly beloved. How she could so sweetly turn down the prospects of being deputy and still be perfectly content. Stinkbugpurr was a puzzle, and she'd been testing Stoatsneer's wits and patience from the moment it touched noses with her at its ceremony.
She dipped her head to Stoatsneer as it slipped into the group. ;"How did it go?";
"Just RiverClan's medicine cat. Stargazing near the border." It replied flatly.
Stinkbugpurr narrowed her eyes. ;"Should we... bring this up?";
"Told 'im I wouldn't make a big deal about it."
The senior warrior gave a tentative nod, glancing back towards the border. ;"I trust you, dear. It's the half-moon, the medicine cats are bound to be out and about.";

[*cries* you're writing whole paragraphs and I'm just
"ivoryhaze went back to his tree" 💀
I'm letting u take control of the story bro where do you wanna go w this?]

(wonderful questions. Also sorry about the longass yaps. I get a little into it lol.
Not really sure where to take this. If there are any plans you had initially, characters you wanna bring in, I'm happy doing literally anything. Also I am. Not an ideas guy ;v;)

(this has been going onfor 2 monthsdo I look like I remember where this was meant to go 💀
and ur fine lmao I like the yaps
if u wanna we could just to stoatsneer's story lmao- i'd be finew that)

(I don't wanna take over lol. I just don't know where I'd take it either.)

(is there any lore you wanna do for Stoatsneer? bc I don'teven know where I was going w this when I made it I was just bored
ivoryhaze might get more lore if I finally makehim into a persona on c.ai)

"Ah, Stoatsneer!" Ivoryhaze purred, seemingly unaware of the hostility. He jumped down from the tree and landed neatly in front of it. "Hello!"

"Hi, Ivoryhaze." It replied flatly. "You didn't answer my questions. What are you doing so close to the border this late?" Stoatsneer peered up into the tree Ivoryhaze had dropped down from. It hadn't realized tree climbing was popular among anything other than squirrels.

Ivoryhaze took a step back, sniffing the air. He ducked his head and licked his chest fur in embarrassment when he realized that he had in fact stepped over the border.

"Sorry, Stoatsneer," he murmured, looking like a kit who was being scolded.

"Quit mumbling like a sorry apprentice. Just explain yourself so I don't have to make this a bigger deal than it is." Arguably, any trespassing should be a big deal. A good future leader should defend its borders with tooth and claw. Then again, a good leader also knows when to let things slide. And that medicine cats get different border permissions than your average warrior. "What... were you doing up in a tree?"

"Stargazing! It's not yet time for me to go to the Moonpool, so I was going to try and read the stars," he purred.

"Hmm?" Stoatsneer turned to look up at the stars. Its fur began to prickle but it forced it flat. It wasn't about to admit it didn't exactly like feeling so exposed. So watched. A warrior should take pride in being watched over, should it not? "So the half moon's coming up then."

"Why are you out here?" Ivoryhaze asked, tilting his head.

"Dusk border patrol." It shrugged. "Regular old warrior duties, making sure other cats stay off the territory..." it added just a hint of emphasis to that last statement. "Nothin' special."

"Aren't patrols with multiple cats? Why are you alone?"

[dude ivoryhaze is literally just the cat version of Karen from Mean Girls ✋😭

(He's just a fella bro)

Stoatsneer glanced over its shoulder, then back at Ivoryhaze. "I prefer to patrol alone. Easier when you can walk at your own pace." Not that it ever fell behind. Despite its absent limb if anything it was Stoatsneer's clanmates that couldn't keep up. Such is what moons of /needing/ to keep pace got you. "Besides, I can handle myself just fine."

*You, (whatever ur character is) is wandering the Forest on a dusk patrol near the edge of your territory (whether it be River, Shadow, or Wind) and see this cat, who you recognize as the Riverclan medicine cat, clawing his way into a tree with very few leaves to sit up at the top.*

sorry chat I died last night I had played an hour long uno game b4 I got on my computer and at that point it was like 1 am

I do need capital. And votes. Wanna know why? "I have a dream." That one day, every person in this nation will control their OWN destiny. A land of the TRULY free, dammit. A nation of ACTION, not words. Ruled by STRENGTH, not committee. Where the law changes to suit the individual, not the other way around. Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people! Where every man is free to think -- to act -- for himself! F**k all these limp-dick lawyers and chicken-shit bureaucrats. F**k this 24/7 Internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit. F**k "American pride". F**k the media! F**k all of it! America is diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving it -- we need to pull it out by the roots. WIpe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN! And from the ashes, a new America will be born. Evolved, but untamed! The weak will be purged, and the strongest will thrive -- free to live as they see fit, they will make America GREAT AGAIN!
You still don't get it. I'm using war as a business to get elected... so I can end war as a business! In my new America, people will die and kill for what they BELIEVE! Not for money, not for oil! Not for what they're told is right. Every man will be free to fight his own wars!

get it ig

(he's a rogue tho, but he has his own borders)
Phantom: Mouseheart! *he jumps right on Ivoryhaze, pinning him to the floor with such force* What are you doing here?!

[what'd you do to get banned bro-?]

Ivoryhaze squeaked and started to gather up catmint, grabbing a large bundle delicately in his jaws. He turned to Phantom and blinked gratefully before he scurried away.

(maybe cuz they thought i was straight or smth idk)
"... Wait." Phantom meowed, taking a step closer to Ivoryhaze and narrowing his crimson eyes, "What's your name?"

[u obvi did smth they don't f**kin ban straight ppl like tf-?]
Ivoryhaze paused and turned around.

"Ivoryhaze," he murmured around the bundle of herbs in his mouth.

(idfk bro, also finally again lmao- i love this rp cuz i love the warrior cats)
Phantom nodded slowly, narrowing his eyes, "Can I come with you?" he meowed shamelessly, taking a step forward.

"I-I.. Leopardstar might not like that..."

Phantom took a step closer, his face a muzzle-length away from Ivoryhaze's, "We did not try," he meowed darkly.

Ivoryhaze just blinked, his tail tucking and ears pinning back to his head in fear.

(did you f**king die)

Phantom twitched his whiskers in amusement, "Lead the way," he meowed.

Ivoryhaze crouched there, trembling.

"P-Please, you must understand. Surely Leopardstar t-told you about the medicine cats' border exceptions? We're allowed wherever with a reason, and my reason is that you have enough catmint to heal my clan for leaf-falls and leaf-bares to come!"

(finally lol)
Phantom paused, staring hard at Ivoryhaze, "I'm a rogue," he growled, "I don't follow any rules you clan cats put. I protect my own borders from trespassers."

[teehee sorry-
it's almost 11pm for me rn I just got back from a Thanksgiving dinner lmao]

"Please," Ivoryhaze whispered shakily, body tense. "Please just allow me to take some catmint. I'll take at least one with roots so I don't have to come back here."

(damn, its 7 am here wtf)
"This is my territory," Phantom hissed, "Go fetch catmint somewhere else if you don't want your pelt ripped off."

[my brother in the stars where are you 😭 (don't answer that's just a crazy time diff-)

"Th-there's no more catmint in any of the Clan territories!"

(frfr lmaoo)
Phantom lifted his muzzle, sniffing the air, and then staring at Ivoryhaze again, "Which Clan are you in?", he meowed, his tone slightly calmer.

"River," Ivoryhaze whispered, claws digging into the bark of the tree.

"Riverclan?" Phantom snorted, "Very well," he slid down on the tree's trunk with his claws and leaped from the branch, landing easily on the grass. "Take whatever you want, but on my watch."

Ivoryhaze carefully clawed down the tree face-first, landing on the grass and looking at Phantom with untrusting eyes.

(dude why you only posting in the lgbtq stream like im f**king banned from that stream bro and im bisexual😭😭)

Phantom paused and turned around, staring at Ivoryhaze, noticing his silence, "Will you grab what you want and get out or just stay there?" he growled.

Ivoryhaze let out a frightened meow, eyes wide.

"I'm sorry!" he cired.

(ima use the same style of your rp cuz i like it lmao-)
Phantom showed his teeth, growling as he pushed Ivoryhaze down even harder.
"Dumb cat!" he hissed, "Apologizing after crossing borders! Don't you clan cats already know how cruel it is?!"

"I-I'm a medicine cat! We have d-different rules!" Ivoryhaze yowled in terror.
(Small warning, I'm rarely allowed on my computer at school so responses maayyy be a bit slow-)

(sad)
"Medicine cat, huh?" Phantom growled, "Then we'll see how you'll heal yourself!" He raised a paw and sliced through air at Ivoryhaze's muzzle, with his claws sheathed.

Ivoryhaze pulled his muzzle away so the rogue slashed his cheek instead, then lunged forward to knock Phantom away. He scrambled to his paws, panting and staring at Phantom with fear in his eyes.

Phantom scrambled to his paws, glaring at Ivoryhaze, but there was a hint of amusement in his eyes, "At least you're fighting like a real cat," he growled, and then leaped at Ivoryhaze, attempting to slash his muzzle again.

Ivoryhaze yowled and scrambled away, paws slipping on the slick leaves of the forest floor. He launched himself into a tree, clawing his way up the bark with ease.

"Hey!" Phantom hissed, "Come back here, you coward!" he leaped onto the tree trunk, climbing up and trying to bite Ivoryhaze's tail.

"Wait wait wait wait!" Ivoryhaze yelped, curling up in a branch. "Let me talk, please!"

Phantom leaped onto the branch, and crept towards Ivoryhaze, "You want to say your last words?" he growled with amusement.

(are u ded lol-)

[yes I am
I am also not allowed on my computer on weekends]

(wut? thats stoopid)

[yeah sry-
