hear me out: a warriors character named duckpaw. their siblings and denmates consistently greet them by yelling DUCK as loudly as they can. the older cats hate this. some of them still duck to this day. the last time one of the apprentices needed to tell their mentor to ACTUALLY duck they got hit in the head by a duck trying to land on the water. the clan leader eventually gets so fed up with this that they try to give duckpaw a new name, but duckpaw and their parents veto it. the leader considers retirement. chaos reigns.

Duckpaw, you've suffered a lot of loss. Who do you think you miss the most? If you could bring one cat back, who would it be? Is it the same as the cat you most miss?
“Well, gosh,” Duckpaw muses. The cinnamon tom speaks softly; jade eyes twinkle with a sheen of wistful nostalgia. “I’ve been missing Mom and Grandpa with all my heart. Having either of ‘em back… that’s a dream come true.”
“But, well…” Now, his expression softens further, the way snow softens just before it melts. He closes his eyes, as if to hide.
“I dunno that I’d bring anyone back.”
Duckpaw smiles— a frail, wan thing— and gives a sheepish shrug. “Everything happens for a reason, right? And I— I wanna believe that something good can come out of what happened to them. That we all had to feel the hurt of losing them for a good reason. If I just bring them back, wave it all away, pretend it never happened…” Again, that little smile slips away. “Then why’d it have to happen at all, y’know?”
