lambkit [of] snowclan

[r a v e n]]*]

Marching along, like a good soldier does.
I’m setting sail with anchors holding me down.
Pack up my bags.
Stow them away.
I’m bidding farewell to all that is safe

Lambkit

a young sheep; a person who is gentle, meek, innocent, etc

Will I come up for air?
Come up for air?

After a while, the current is calling me, tom
lulling me, waving goodbye 5 moons
I’m out here alone; oh, God, can you save me now? snowclan
Sinking, my heart turns to stone. kitten

Withering away, a shrinking violet dies.
So full of life.
These lights have dried me out.
Into the sea...
Needed a drink...
I never thought this would consume me whole.

Shear me

Lambkit may not be the cutest kitten in the Clan. That could be part of the reason why Miragewhisper didn't want him. He's a gangly fellow with a sinewy frame and large awkward feet. He's also got this enormous ears that sort of resemble those of the fox family he was living with. Also, his hair...or lack thereof. He looks like he's part of the Sphynx breed! He's got hair, yes, but it's extremely short. He's mostly white with creamy-orange spots and tiny stripes.

Alright, let's go into detail. Lambkit's got somewhat of a small head that's a bit wrinkly. Plus, with those massive ears, it makes him look kind of like a bat. His muzzle is rounded, ending in a red-orange nose that's kinda cute. His eyes are bright orange, like the orange of a construction sign. Yeah, that vivid. Don't make him get angry. They get darker, like the clouds of an apocalyptic morning.

Lambkit is really thin. His shoulders are close together and when he sits, it looks like he's scared of you by the way he's body trembles. He has long legs that end in awkward duck-like feet. This paws end in short, hooked talons and pink paw-pads. His tail is short and skinny like the rest of him.

He only has one scar on his body, and that's on his ear. It was from Faolán when they were playing. Other than that, his white and orange body is untouched.

The very name of Lambkit just illuminates how this tom acts. I don't understand why Miragewhisper didn't want him. Lambkit is gentle, meek, innocent, and a pacificist.

Lambkit loves playing around with other kits but if someone gets hurt, he's always the first on the scene. He makes sure everything's okay before continuing to play. However, he's quite naive and can't always tell when cats are fibbing. It makes him very angry when they cry wolf about injuries or something else that could be very serious. However, it doesn't take much to calm him down because he doesn't like being angry. He's a gentle tom with a heart of gold.

Although shy at first, it doesn't take much for Lambkit to come out of his shell and play with you. He just has to recognize that you're not a threat. If he's confronted with something that he doesn't like or he's scared of, he'd rather run away than fight. He's not very intimidating. Even though he looks kind of creepy and scary because of his weird looks, he's more scared of you than you are of him.

Lambkit is innocent and very much naive. He would never ever tell a lie, and he doesn't like it when others want him to lie for them. It wears away at his conscience. His mother told him to always tell the truth, but many cats don't like him because this makes him seem like a goody-two-shoes or a tattle-tale. He doesn't have high self-confidence and does whatever it takes to fit in, not liking to complain if something goes on that makes him uncomfortable. He doesn't like fighting but he can't muster up the courage to tell everyone to seek peace.

Save me. Take me home...

Lambkit really has two mothers. The one that gave birth to him in a ArcticClan nursery really didn't want him. Her name was Miragewhisper. She found out she was pregnant with kits fathered by a tom named Ivorytusk, an exile of AcrticClan. At first, she nursed them but after two moons, Miragewhisper didn't want her Lambkit anymore so she dumped him in a fox's den and ran off, expecting that the fox would eat the helpless thing and then that would be the end of it. However, a little fox kit named Faolán found him and the two began playing. The kit's mother, Arnika, soon found them. At first she scolded Faolán for playing with a cat but after the fox kit pleaded with her, she took compassion on the tomkit who called himself Lamb. Laith, Arnika's mate, wasn't too pleased about the situation but with the help of the two other foxes, he started to love Lamb like his own son. Faolán and Lamb grew up like brothers for two months.

Then...Leaf-fall came. Hunting season. The hounds and Two-Legs came. Laith told Arnika, Faolán, and Lamb to escape. They had to go to their second den to escape the hunters. Laith took Faolán and Arnika took Lamb, and the family ran. However, Arnika and Lamb got separated from the two males, heading towards SnowClan territory. Arnika wanted to save her little Lamb from the hounds so she dropped him near SnowClan camp before running and distracting the hounds. A gunshot ran out, then another. Lamb never saw his family again.

A few SnowClanners saw the tomkit at the entrance of their camp, and they were perplexed by the smell of fox on him. However, they took him in without question. He was given to a queen named Cryingweather to watch over him but he didn't really pay attention to her. He wanted Arnika and Laith back. He wanted to play with Faolán.
