How fitting was it, for a winged cat to love birds as much as Wlam did? Maybe it was because Snow had always called her clanmates ‘birdcats’, a title used with disdain but something Wildfirelament as a kit had taken quite literally, but she had always felt a connection to those feathered creatures. Maybe that was why after discovering she was, in fact, *not* a girl, the first thing she thought of was to use bird-like terms as a substitute. Fledgling, nestor, fowl, raptor.. It just felt right, on a level that she couldn’t quite explain. And Wlam never quite understood why. Until recently, that was. She had been hunting, as per usual, sneaking up on a red feathered cardinal pecking at the ground when a twig had snapped underpaw, and the creature’s head had whipped towards her. Their eyes met, feline and avian. Dark brown meeting the bright orange that lied under the mask, before it had fluttered away. Such a small, simple, and fleeting moment. One that most would have brushed off, but not Wlam. It was like a connection had been made in that moment, an answer found that she didn’t even notice she was looking for. And now, everything made a lot more sense. ... Wow, Wlam gender change real!!! So yeah, Wildfirelament now identifies as birdgender (under the Xenogender unbrella) and her new pronouns are She/They/Chirp/Talon. Okay that's it bye
