❝ Enchanté ❞ ꕀ A French term used when meeting a person for the first time. Literally speaking, it means "enchanted" though the word is often used to mean delighted, charmed, or smitten. When I was a little lass The angels leapt from panes of glass So unafraid, unafraid And the arches knelt to pray While the gargoyles kept away Any demon that would scheme to steal My childlike faith We huddled up, we held on tight For grounded men were jealous of The angel's flight, angel's flight They were butterflies to them So they brought their boards to pin The wings and bodies of our gods For studying We couldn't fight them in the end Once we saw the heavens through Their modern lens, modern lens Oh how can we atone For the secrets we were shown Like a basilisk they fixed our spirits Hard as stone Alas the muses through their glasses Drift away as only madness Drowning in the din Of our animal skins Enchanté, enchanté, enchanté, enchanté Every myth to crack its lips Has nothing more to say It's okay, it's okay, it's okay If we can't raise the dead We're gonna raise, we're gonna raise We're gonna raise hell instead From chagrin I've been released Paint me in a portrait sans The fig leaves, fig leaves And I will not be concerned Or ignore the things I yearn My hunger is the rule I cannot overturn Alas the virtues through their glasses Hid themselves from our madness All we have within Is our animal skins Enchanté, enchanté, enchanté, enchanté Greet your beast and let 'em streak Into the fray It's okay, it's okay, it's okay If we can't raise the dead We're gonna raise, we're gonna raise We're gonna raise hell instead I miss the days when stars were saintly They sang to me in ways innately Before we enslaved the symphony To playing anthems for selling things I used to wonder, wander farther Into awe, but those days were squandered My ghost was lost to the grownup gallows So I find my spirit in the bottle But, oh! That bottle Oh that bottle, oh that bottle Oh that bottle! Enchanté, enchanté, enchanté, enchanté Name the powers "meteors" And let us go insane It's okay, it's okay, it's okay If we can't raise the dead We're gonna raise, we're gonna raise We're gonna raise hell instead Greet your beast and let 'em streak Into the fray If we can't raise the dead We're gonna raise, we're gonna raise We're gonna raise hell instead Application link: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/879304/?page=1#post-9119536 JRP project:
Wildfirelament @SilverFeatherPro101 Gen 1 Falcon x Loner hybrid She/They/Chirp/Talon - Dama/Damather As the deputy of Falconclan, Wildfirelament has a lot on their plate, and the heavy load of five new kittens and the grief of a lost sixth adds evermore to chirp's shoulders. Wildfirelament is a good cat, or at least, she sure hopes that talon is, and tries their best to be. Loyal to a fault to chirp's clan and a chronic workaholic, Wildfirelament can be a bit jaded and cold at times, especially with that bird-like mask that talon wears, but they're fiercely protective, supportive and loving to the cats she cares about. Wildfirelament, as a parent, is very involved and attentive, even when it doesn't seem like they are. No matter how busy and packed Wlam's schedule may be, talon will always make time for them. To play, to talk, to comfort, to aid, whatever it may be, if they need her, chirp will be there. Above all else, Wlam's top priority is to make sure that chirp's kits never go a second doubting whether or not they are loved. They are leaps and bounds better at showing her affection to others than how chirp was moons ago (Water-Lilyredemption can certainly attest..) but they still struggle at times, especially in times where they struggle with their mental health and loose sight of her better judgement. Wildfirelament, the ever-lawful and disciplined fowl that chirp is, will teach her kits to value the code and the structure of the clan above all. After all, chirp is the deputy. Her kits and their actions are reflections on talon and their own reputation. Water-Lilyredemption @Silent-Melody Falconcat They/Them - Mapa/Ren Water-lilyredemption loves with their whole heart... and fears with equal measure. They remember the Snugglebugdream of their kithood, and strives to emulate faer steady presence in Water-Lily's younger days. All they want is to be an emotional anchor their kits can always return to, no matter what they’ve done or how they feel. They make a point of listening first, comforting their kits before correcting them, and ensuring their kits know that Water-lily will always love them. They have a little practice on how to be a parent from their first litter, though still perpetually worried, trying their best to support their kits, and with their coping of not being able to do that for Glorykit/courage, tends to spoil the rest a little. But Water-lily is an anxious cat, and with every step they take, the little voice in the back of their mind questions them. Are they doing enough? What if they've already done something wrong? They bury these thoughts deep in their mind, as far from their kits eyes as possible. This fear often pushes them to overcompensate, coming off as too overbearing, too protective, too much. They will do anything to be a good parent, even when it’s exhausting or strains them. They've seen how kits could be hurt by their parents actions in the past, and their greatest fear is to hurt their own that same way.

(L) Normal cat tail Next struts out the ever-dazzling Sparklingkit! Her plumage ever as unique as she, with a blend of frizzled orange and smooth blue, both bearing a sparkling and bubbled patterning, and striped fur a mix of brown and creams and pale silver. (Being a chimera, the gray tabby, orange eyes, & blue feathers side is all that can be passed down color/feather-wise should she have biological kits! She cannot produce frizzled feathered kits.) ♕...❀ ˖⊹✦⊹˖ ❀...♕ Wildfirelament: @SilverFeatherPro101 Water-Lilyredemption: @Silent-Melody Sparkling Design: @sleep1ng- TSS: @tss-roleplay Background: Google Thumbnail: @AugustAnimation Lyrics: Enchanté by Poor Dirt Robins ♕...❀ ˖⊹✦⊹˖ ❀...♕
