BUBBLECLOUD of RUNNINGCLAN
24 MOONS • MEDICINE CAT
SHE-CAT • HOMOSEXUAL
SHORT DESCRIPTION
" slight, silvery she-cat with faint tabby markings. "
PERSONALITY
- Bubblecloud is quite the passive individual. She is non-confrontational and will avoid conflict if at all possible.
- whilst rather placid by nature, she will seldom stand up for herself and backs down easily to most forms of intimidation.
- most times those who do her wrong will slip by without any real consequence. More vindictive characters may seek to take advantage of this as Bubblecloud would not seek revenge of any kind.
- she is an unconditionally kind soul and would help anycat, be them of RunningClan or otherwise.
- this being said, Bubblecloud is not a stranger to loyalty, but she certainly has a hard time believing that the concept should get in the way of what is right or wrong; to help another in need will always be the right choice for her.
- she is a practiced optimist, having found that negativity is a breeding ground for both self-pity and self-loathing, neither of which she believes are healthy. she attempts to remain hopeful and bright even in darkness.
- Bubblecloud is selfless, but it is to the point that often other cats' feelings and problems overshadow her own. Sometimes she needs a friendly reminder to look out for herself.
- she is dedicated to her work as a medicine cat; she seeks to use only the best formulations of herbs to provide the best results. her expertise in being a healer is where she truly shines.
- she does not often willingly input an opinion other than when it has to do with another cat's health. Bubblecloud pays special care to look after the medical needs of each of her Clanmates; she is very accommodating and nonjudgmental.
- much like her mentor before her, she has a tendency to be overly absorbed in her work. She often overworks herself without noticing.
- in her downtime, Bubblecloud enjoys to observe rather than participate. She can be easily consumed in her own musings, and can be amusedly startled when her reveries are interrupted.
HISTORY
- Pearlfur was regal, skilled and stunning. She had fur that looked as though she'd been kissed by starlight, but, though beautiful, a first glance would not be enough to tell her entire story. Perhaps not a fan of getting her paws dirty, Pearlfur still hunted and fought with all the expected vigor of a middle-aged warrior.
- while she had many suitors come and go, none seemed to see past her looks long enough to get to know her, none except for humble, gracious Tundrastone. In layman's terms he was simply a good choice for a mate, but his warm demeanor and genuine tendencies are what truly stole her heart.
- a litter of one lone kit the color of starlight was born to them, and Pearlfur could not have been more overjoyed at her daughter's identical coat. Beneath the purring form of her mate, they decided on the name, Bubblekit.
- the kit's first steps were hesitant, sending worry through her mother that perhaps she was sick or would not be strong enough. Tundrastone, however, ever sure in all things, helped Bubblekit through every pawstep.
- while it was more common to hear Pearlfur going on and on about her beautiful and likely-to-be-talented kit, it was Bubblekit's father's place to pay as much mind to her as possible with little commentary. Bubblekit's attachment to him grew, able to simply be in his presence.
- as much as she would duck her head shyly, thank graciously and sit through her ears burning at her mother's insistent praise, it was only ever to not disappoint her. Bubblekit, as the moons ticked by, began to see just how much stock Pearlfur was putting into her success; it made her nervous, unsure of what would happen if she couldn't live up to her expectations.
- it was always Tundrastone in the end that she could count on to simply be there for her, nothing more, unless she so requested. He listened, more than anything, and it was a welcomed respite.
- if he tried to reason with her mother, Bubblekit would never come to find out. On her fifth moon, the tom succumbed to a rapidly-spreading infection. She felt her heart breaking and felt like her whole world would end without him there to guide her.
- the medicine cat at the time, Sheepnose, was an intelligent and skilled. He was very consumed in his work as healer, and he took it harshly when he was not able to save Tundrastone.
- Bubblekit, her tendency to be more concerned with others coming to light even at a young age, visited him the following sunrises to assure him that he had done all her could. The more time she spent in the medicine cat's den, the more she became engrossed in the life that Sheepnose lead. The moons were closing in on her apprenticehood, and though Bubblekit had always had it in mind that she would become a warrior to help her Clan, she realized that the life of a medicine cat might suit that purpose moreso.
- with no apprentice of his own, Sheepnose was open to have one when she had her naming ceremony the following moon.
- previously, she had been intimidated by the idea of becoming an apprentice; things like learning how to hunt and fight seemed daunting, but with those on the back burner, Bubblepaw delved into her studies of medicine head-first.
- Pearlfur did not seem particularly thrilled with the life she had chosen and, at first, often asked her to re-consider. It hurt Bubblepaw's feelings, not that she would ever admit it. As the moons ticked by her mother stopped asking though, but Bubblepaw knew it was still and overlying issue.
- Sheepnose was a sharp and fast-paced cat and taught her with the same traits at the forefront; at first, Bubblepaw struggled to keep up, but she quickly became accustomed to his ways and, in the end, has benefited greatly from his teachings.
- it was when she was 18 moons that she noticed a shift in her mentor's behavior. Normally, he was fairly eclectic and could even be strange to the cat who didn't know him, but he began to have random outbursts of concentrated emotion; it was admittedly quite intimidating. Sheepnose also began to mix up herbs in what they did and did not do, and Bubblepaw could not help but think, if she was not there to catch the errors, that the results could be potentially devastating.
- it was unanimously decided that the medicine cat retire. Though Bubblepaw agreed, it meant that she would be taking his place.
- she traveled to the Mist-Caves in a toss-up of emotions: excitement, intimidation, nervousness... during her sharing tongues with StarClan, however, she found the ceremony to be overwhelming in the best of ways. It humbled her, and she could never put to words the gratitude she felt from being able to see Tundrastone again.
- she returned to RunningClan as Bubblecloud, and though she had to take many deep breaths to remain composed from time to time, she set immediately into working hard to provide her services to her Clanmates.
