"fizzling and cracking under my skin, making empty promises to explode out in a beautiful casacade of stars, to be completely incomprehensible and laid bare all at once."
fear of being seen and a yearning to be known
this is autism
said something to my friends about wanting to explode in a supernova (ultimate stimming experience)

I am super intrigued about your idea of a leader's 9 lives!! Question: Can a leader make new promises to replace ones that they've broken?
tysm for asking!!!
and no, they can't make new promises! Once they break a promise it's gone. I think the impact of breaking a life would be significantly reduced if they could just be replaced. (not a dig at u or the idea btw)
On a hypothetical note- I imagine some weird loopholes could also form, allowing leaders to live even longer than normal, when one of my biggest goals with the system was to generally shorten the lives of leaders. To promote change within the clans officials, even though they won't really been seen action. No Mistystars in WDKU! XD
Hey guys im back from honor student purgatory with more WDKU yap
I've minorly changed the nine lives system after watching 10 hours of moonkitti videos:
Each life is a promise between a dead cat and the leader. These promises, and in turn lives can be forfeit by the leader if they wish. For any promises kept, they are always at risk of being broken by the leader.
If a leader is to break a promise, the life is ripped from them on the spot. A process that is said by some to feel like your very heart is being ripped out of your chest.
Promises are given by the cats who have thought about the leader or the prospect of their ceremony most in death, this is usually the cats closest to the leader.
Graphic of Scorchstar's promises:
She gains her lives after most everyone has been driven out, her group makes the trek to the moonstone before leaving, a demand by Scorchstar, at the time Scorchfoot
My modifications to starclan lore are coming soon!!
