#BS!Petalnose

[brightblueflare]

I've been Having Thoughts about Petalnose for a while.

In canon she doesn't matter, she's just a random background queen (like many of the female characters, now that I think about it), which I think is a shame because she has a lot of potential!

The first time we hear of her is in Firestar's Quest, when Rainfur (SkC) comes to ask for help to rescue her from her abusive Twoleg. She spends a while in SkyClan, chillin', before The Rats Attack.

Then her mate dies, and she has to raise two children alone.

That alone could have been fascinating. We could have seen a traumatized widow trying to raise her children right, we could have seen SkyClan taking care of the kittens and learning how to be a community, we could've good family drama, in this series.

Then, when word gets out that the abusive Twoleg keeps mistreating cats, and my fascination with her simply grew. How would she, a heavily traumatized abuse victim, react when other people need help to escape from the Twoleg that used to be her abuser?

But that's thrown out the window. The plot point of being nervous and afraid of the abusive bastard goes to a tom and her abuse is never mentioned again.

I refuse to give the authors props for remembering she was abused, remembering the arc of the character you're writing should be the bare fucking minimum if you want to tell a story. But she didn't have an arc, from what I've seen the fandom hardly remembers her, and the development of going from abuse survivor that's afraid of their own shadow to Clan deputy goes to another character.

So, she's getting blorborified in the Blazing Sky AU.

Her character arc is still in drafts, but the basic idea is to grab her backstory and elaborate on it.

Canon says she's kind and motherly, but I feel like, if written like that, she blends a lot into Clovertail. So I'm changing it, and portraying her as I always wished she was in the books.

The story about the abusive human is something I'm keeping, but I want to expand on the consequences his mistreatment had on her. After being rescued by the newly reformed SkyClan, she's looking around nervously, wide-eyed and terrified. She's born and raised a housecat, she's never seen so many cats together before, she's only ever gone out of her home to see Rainbloom (prev. Rainfur) and her kittenhood friend Echo, and those times grew rarer as the human grew crueler.

But they're being nice to her. They offer to carry her kittens, they make sure she and her kittens are healthy, and she's given a place in their camp for as long as she wants it while the others bring her and Sage and Mint food.

At first she doesn't trust them, and refuses to let anyone see the kittens or even enter the den if Rainbloom isn't present. They respect her wishes. Clovertail even moves her nest to give her space. Rainbloom stays with her, since he isn't really a member of SkyClan and feels uneasy around the group of cats.

Slowly she begins to open up. I don't have them planned, but I want to write scenes about her interactions with the Clan, how she gets to know them, learns about the Clan, and how she begins to think of them as her friends.

She definitely befriends Clovertail during her stay. Clovertail is kind, but also confident. Sometimes she rambles, but Petal likes how it fills the silence. Plus, Clovertail's three kittens are bundles of energy that seem to adore Sage and Mint.

When she and Rainbloom choose to become SkyClan cats, everyone is happy. They have come to love her, and are thrilled to know she's staying. That's what she likes the most about SkyClan: the community, the loyalty and love all these cats feel towards each other.

She has the choice to leave. She chooses to stay.

*shakes Petalnose* I don't know man, I just think she's neat.

I'll probably do a character summary for her eventually.
