┈┈ ୧ QUESTION ONE ⊰ my nickname/username ୨

╰┈➤ hi there !! you can call me Moe :] my username on scratch is @.sunshinezz but you can find me on almost every other social under @.moemints !! that’s my Chaos tag if you ever need to contact me offsite.

┈┈ ୧ QUESTION TWO ⊰ about me ୨

╰┈➤ hi, I’m Moe !! I'm a passionate cat lover and theater kid !! I'm a huge warrior cat fanatic, and have been into the series for about 7 years now ! I have four cats of my own: Pepper, Piper, Oliver, and Oscar !! a few things I enjoy are cats, warrior cats, stranger things, beetlejuice (especially the musical!), epic the musical, outer banks, cattails (original + wildwood story), reading, writing, doodling, and roleplaying !!!

┈┈ ୧ QUESTION THREE ⊰ current TFCRP character(s) ୨

╰┈➤ as for my current character, my pride and joy: Legendstar of WindClan !!! you may have heard of him of course, considering he's the leader of WindClan, something I'm very proud about <33 I won him in April of 2023, and he's currently 70+ moons. he’s certainly shaped my perspective on roleplaying and I have a much firmer understanding of it now. I also have Folklore's Shadow of TSD, and Dawning__ of ShadowClan, both of whom I enjoy as characters and am looking forward to where their stories go.

┈┈ ୧ QUESTION FOUR ⊰ why I’m willing to let go of my current character ୨

╰┈➤ as it goes, I'll have to be letting go of a character if I were to win Bingo. It's not something I'd take lightly, and in the end, I think that Dawning would be the character I'm giving up. I'm not proud of how young she is, but right from the start my relationship with her was rocky. I jumped straight into the application and adored her because I convinced myself that I was ready to roleplay her as much as I was a year ago. When her only parent suddenly went inactive and it left me scrambling to find another parent, that's when things started to go downhill. When I finally was ready to roleplay with her again it just felt.. wrong. I feel like I've missed out on too many of my opportunities for relationships and character plots for her because she's a warrior. While I still love her and would keep her as a personal character, I don't think TFCRP is the right place for her anymore. I'd be looking for a fresh start, and Bingo is the perfect opportunity. Her personality makes me much happier, and her being a loner allows more flexibility and leniency. Also I love both her mom and sister <3 Dawning__ would finally give into her urges and go adventure the territory far beyond, blissfully unaware that anything ever changed.

┈┈ ୧ QUESTION FIVE ⊰ personality ୨

╰┈➤ woohoo !! my favorite part <3 trait summary below, then my rambles! just a summarized “detailed” personality pretty much. mostly my thoughts on each trait.

• positive ⊹ companionable, determined, fun-loving, passionate, vivacious
• neutral ⊹ sociable, innocuous, chatterbox, mischievous, curious
• negative ⊹ clingy, obsessive, know-it-all, defensive, morbid

Companionable: “of a person; friendly and sociable, a good companion” - Bingo is a pleasure to be around! Though she doesn’t often come across any cats besides her mother and sister, whenever the opportunity presents itself she leaps into action. She could be compared to a “golden retriever friend”, following her buddies around with eagerness and a friendly nature. She gives off a warm, playful vibe, so folks can’t help but want to talk to her! She would happily return the favor. A friend to the end, she is! You want to go cliff-diving or skunk-prodding? Sure, she’s in!
Determined: “having made a firm decision and being resolved to not change it” - With a powerful drive and a determined heart, Bingo is ready to face whatever comes her way! Not one to back down from a challenge, she’ll see something through to the end, no matter the trail of consequences. Especially if it comes to getting someone to stay. Who wouldn’t want to stay with her, right?? She tends to have a competitive streak due to this trait, but always in good nature. Once her mind is made up about something, it’ll take a hurricane of force to try and change her opinion.
Fun-loving: “light-hearted and enjoying amusements” - With such a carefree upbringing both Bingo and her sister have, who wouldn’t have such a love of good ol’ fun! Making crafts, building forts, running through the forest like maniacs, all this stuff is the peak of her enjoyment! Stuff like this never seems to get tiring for her, always ready for another game or something new to make. She can probably be serious whenever she wants to, but this pathway is a much brighter one to go down in her opinion. Why waste time worrying about things that could happen when instead you could focus on the little enjoyments in life? There’s way too many fun things to miss out on!
Passionate: “capable of or expressed by strong feelings or enjoyment” - Fueled by a love for the things she, well, loves, Bingo is certainly passionate! She doesn’t mind if anyone thinks her little hyperfixiations or.. “different” interests are weird, they bring happiness to her day and that’s what matters. You can tell in her voice and expressions that she truly loves to talk about the things she loves, and would like it if you would ask her about them, pretty please. When something sparks interest in her, she eagerly dives deeper and wants to know every bit about it, and it becomes her “passion project”. These things change from time to time but you can usually count on her working on the same things as always. She’s very eager in what she does, that’s for sure. And interested in knowing what you like, too! Passion isn’t a one-sided thing, she would say.
Vivacious: “lively and animated” - Being a friendly little thing, Bingo of course loves to talk. One of her most noticeable traits is how vivacious she is, something you’ll learn from the start if you strike up a conversation with her. Aside from chattering away about what she likes, what she’s being doing, etc. you might find her paws or expressions painting that story to life. She’s very animated and speaks not only through her words but through her actions. She’s filled with a kind of energy that, once tapped into, unleashes and resonates throughout her entire body.

idea dump
- superfan of marine biology. she will yap away about it any day. don't ask her about it unless you'd like an earful !!
- stemming from this we've got her “special” interest… dissection. especially with clams, oysters, jellyfish, and other things that wash up on the beach, she's equally as interested in what's on the inside as what's on the outside. this will probably freak other cats out but she doesn't mind LOL
- the beach is her favorite place in the edge of the forest and she'll often be found there exploring, or if she gets upset or angry then she'll go there to cool off and think..
- since she spends a lot of time near the beach, she loves the smell of saltwater and seaweed. She finds comfort in it, like a grounding scent that reminds her of home.
- huge science fanatic and loves to conduct experiments, test theories, and study all kinds of things. :nerd emoji: /hj
- likes shiny trinkets and treasures and makes collections of all sorts of things!
- she has a knack for finding rare shells or washed-up objects that other cats might overlook. She’s collected a particularly odd assortment, including a glass bottle, a piece of driftwood shaped like a star, and even a sand-dollar she treats like a prized treasure.
- obsessed with the idea of romance and falling and love in general, wants to feel that powerful connection that no one else can bring her. to the point that she fantasizes about it, creating “false relationships” in her head (kinda like little girls do yknow)? not exactly thinking that they’re real but just giving her something to hold onto..
- surprisingly polite when it comes to older cats, especially since she lacks proper etiquette due to her upbringing. she doesn’t use things like please/thank you but wants to impress the “wise” cats by being polite. and she actually dreams of someday being the wisest cat in all of the lands.. the one who knows anything about everything, and young cats come and ask her questions about anything, and she can answer them.
- for someone who is such a know-it-all, bingo hates to be in charge. she wants to be the idea man, the behind-the-scenes informer. she doesn’t want to make those big final decisions and having to come up with on the spot decisions stresses her out. she hates impulsive choices. it’s kinda ironic; she hates being told what to do, but doesn’t want to be the one to tell others what to do.

┈┈ ୧ QUESTION SIX ⊰ research ୨

╰┈➤ overgrown claws

• link: https://wagwalking.com/cat/condition/claw-nail-disorder
If a cat is born with overgrown claws, it could be due to a genetic condition or developmental issue. Normally, kittens are born with tiny, sharp claws that grow as they age, but congenital overgrowth can happen. Some symptoms include snagging, curled claws, and difficulty walking. Being born with this condition, Bingo will know how to navigate with it, but it may become a hindrance for her and may even cause pain/irritation at times. She is more prone to getting her claws stuck on various things or getting them torn out; potentially even scratching herself on accident. Luckily they’re blue, and she will learn how to manage them and can live happily still, even if they’re in the way sometimes.

┈┈ ୧ QUESTION SEVEN ⊰ trivia/miscellaneous ୨

╰┈➤ trivia coming sooooon
╰┈➤ ideas for the future!!

• future gender and sexuality: this is an ongoing debate with myself, and i generally just like to see how it goes irp! bingo will definitely start off as straight, wondering when her knight in shining armor to arrive. but later on in life, who knows what path she’ll go down! heh. as for gender, as of now she’ll stick to her agab and just use she/her (what i’m using for this application). i’ve been thinking she might be nonbinary in the future and use something like she/they/fae. we’ll see! :3
• the rebellion arc: this is the one that’s been rotating in my mind the most… i’m thinking when bingo is around “teenager” age (10-14 moons i’d say?) she’s becoming increasingly rebellious. such as, defying all of budgie’s orders for the sake of being controversial. i’m thinking when she’s around 12-13 moons of age, she’ll up and leave the edge of the forest in a flurry of emotion and go and visit one of the Clans, perhaps. maybe visit one of her friends if she has any in the Clans.. she’ll be thinking it’s because she wants to be “cool and rebellious” and “it’s not a phase mom!” but in reality she’s just struggling to deal with her inner insecurities and it’s coming out in the wrong way. she thinks that Clan life would better match her pace and she could pour her angst into structure and hard work. bingo would spend a good 3 moons I’d say in the Clans (or wherever she is) before coming to terms with her emotions and realizing that Clan life was never where she belonged, bidding her friend(s) goodbye and finally rejoining budgie and bambi in the loner territory. she would apologize for her mother and explain how she had to process some of her emotions, and come out of the situation wiser and with a better grasp on her moral compass.
• the love letter: not sure when this would happen, probably in her young teens or tweens. 8-13 moon age range at least. anyways, bingo has always been obsessed with the idea of true love and being swept off her feet by some perfect cat that she’ll someday meet. she becomes restless with the quiet life of lonerhood (this might cross paths with the rebellion arc) and search for her “one true love”. let’s say she finds a cat, and they connect in some sort of way. bingo would begin to quickly develop a crush despite the other cat most likely not reciprocating the feelings. she would become impatient with how slowly/dully the way things are going and try to speed things up by leaving them “love letters”. aka small gifts that she makes for
them, as the excellent craftsman she is. she would “sign” these gifts and leave them for said cat, then giddily wait for them to magically become enamored with her. it wouldn’t work, of course, and she would get continually pushier until she’s finally told that enough is enough. bingo would be heartbroken and down in the dumps, moping about how “true love is FAKE and i’ll be alone forever” until realizing that she was really just being a bad friend, and love isn’t something that can be forced. she would apologize to the other cat and they would hopefully maintain a nice platonic relationship and such :3 she still wishes for a romantic bond but knows now that it cannot be forced or imposed upon others, and that one day she’ll meet someone who reciprocates her feelings. don’t worry bingo, you’ll meet your true love someday!
