It was a miracle they had not already been burnt by the quickly rising tide, and, had she not spotted the tell-tale flames of a Pyrocat, she would have not ventured so close to the waves. But now she was here, and left with a choice. Should she adopt the helpless kits, huddling with each other for warmth? The answer was obvious from the beginning, but there was a moment of hesitation nonetheless. Her first little was dead, gone. Her family, all but one, lost as well. So did she dare let more cats close to her heart? Apparently, realized the deputy of Pyroclan as she stepped back into camp, three kittens in tow, the answer was yes. ╔═══════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═══════════╗ ❝ ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴀɴɴᴀ ꜱᴀʏ ɢᴏᴏᴅʙʏᴇ, ❞ ╚═══════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═══════════╝ Hello and welcome to 'When ladybugs cry', a semi-selective (though leaning closer towards selective) litter! These three adorable kittens will be adopted by none other than Ladybugshine, deputy of Pyroclan! If you long to be part of the biggest family tree, be the child of a high rank, and give your kit lots upon lots of angst, this is the litter for you! I do hope you enjoy reading this! ╔═══════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═══════════╗ ❝ 'ᴄᴀᴜꜱᴇ ᴛʜɪꜱ ᴏɴᴇ ᴍᴇᴀɴꜱ ꜰᴏʀᴇᴠᴇʀ! ❞ ╚═══════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═══════════╝ - Rules - i. Do not copy or steal any of the art or designs featured in this project. ii. Do not take heavy inspiration or copy any of the fellow litter applicator's applications. iii. No homophobia, transphobia, sexism, racism, ext. Nothing/no-one that h@tes on other humans nor animals, pretty much. If you are a h@ter of any of these things, you will immediately be banned from the litter, and either black or greylisted by me. iv. Don't be mean, please? I don't think I need to say this but like, just be a decent person? v. Don't make any major changes to the designs. Ask the designers if you want to make minor ones, as that is not my decision to make. vi. Don't try to lower yourself and/or others. Being like, "Oh I'm never gonna win!!!" isn't going to make me feel pity on you. Which, by the way, leads us to rule seven! vii. Don't guilt-trip me cw is your favorite type of insect if you don't win, or if you want to win. It's annoying, and it doesn't change my mind. viii. Do not kill Griefkit or Sorrowkit off before 20 moons, and try not to kill them off before 35. Do not kill Weepingkit off until at least 30 moons. And once you reach those ages, please don't oof them immediately. :,3 This is something that bothers me a lot as well, so PLEASE don't k1ll them off right after, not just for my sake but for the designers' sakes especially! ix. If you win a kit PLEASE be active or at least semi-active. I understand if life happens, and unexpected things pop up, and that's fine! But otherwise try to be at least semi-active if you can. <33 x. If you are on any of the kit designers' DNI, you will be politely denied and told to go find another litter. xi. Remix applications are preferred, but comment applications /are/ allowed. xii. Don't be the reason more rules get added. ╔═══════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═══════════╗ ❝ ᴀɴᴅ ɴᴏᴡ ʏᴏᴜ'ʀᴇ ɪɴ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴛᴀʀꜱ, ❞ ╚═══════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═══════════╝ -- Additional Info -- - The litter will be closing on November 21th - The kits will start off at two moons old, and will be found in the center of Pyroclan territory. - These kittens are adopted- their biological parents are NPCs, it is up to the RPers if the kits ever knew them or not, and what role they played in the kits' lives (albeit a relatively small one as it was only 2 moons of their lives). - I will close applications for a certain kit if I believe they have enough applications and the others are lacking, or if I see an application I particularly enjoy. The entire litter will close on the due date. It does lean a lot more towards selective, so there is still a definite chance you may be declined. ═════════════*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*═════════════
