ianthe knew what it was like to leave a clan. she left quite a few, actually. but she couldn't muster up why french was so sad about it. then again, when she left thunderclan and arcadianclan, both were neglecting her. maybe shadowclan had done the opposite? if that was the case, why did frenchvanilla leave?

despite the questions eating at her, ianthe decided to just be a comforting friend. "ve's right, french. you're one of the big kids now -" she attempted a joking smile, eyes dragging over the before mentioned ve. "some of us aren't even at 'paw' yet." she turned her tease to her princess, hoping her voice would be enough to send the joke properly.

she just didn't have time anymore. she had a clan to lead, and she couldn't continue to lead this one on with her pseudo activity. her tail twitched as she simply left a letter, not having the courage to even look at kassi, or any of the others, before she left what she once thought was her forever home.

dear everyone,

i'm sorry. i'm a queen now, and i can't keep fiddling with herbs here while my clanmates over there are missing me. please, find a new medic quick. send them to me, if you want. i'll train them the best i can. if anyone should need me otherwise, i'm in palisadeclan.

thank you,
ianthe

RUNS IN
I AM. SO SORRY. incredibly sorry i dont even know how to describe the amount.
the meeting will be postponed until this saturday, and hopefully with my newfound knowledge of my current functioning schedule, ill be able to poke around here more.
but!!! in the mean time plots are greatly accepted! the ball was supposed to be planned by merc and alex, so idk much about that. i would perfer not a takeover but trust me, i would understand if that would be the only remaining plot to boost activity. id be cool w it then.

but a sickness could be sweet! not for the chars, of course, but we could extend it to the remaining healthy chars going out and looking for herb invested chars, and it could in turn boost activity here. maybe clanwide quarantine, and a bunch of medics buzzing around due yo that.

anything else? im open for anything lmao

but. again. really sorry. i have been watching the board so i know who to warn, promote, demote ect

a murder mystery could revolve around leafstar, considering nobody rlly knows about hos death and ianthe would be on that shit faster than anything

i am so sorry that it had to come to this. im trying my best to be out here for you guys, but my schedule keeps kicking me in the ass everytime i do. i was planning the meeting for saturday, i have the promotions and warnings planned out. i even had a chance to grab the laptop, but i was told to help someone with something. then that lead to more things, and soon enough, i learned i barely had time to do homework, as i had to leave for work (which goes until one in the morning, on most nights). i am so, so, so, SO sorry but i beg for you to bear with me.

you can look back to before school started for me - i was an active little shit. even before that, when i had a laptop of my own, i was constantly doing something with ianthe. but school and work knocked me on my feet, and im struggling to get back up again. but i will, i just need more time, less stress. you know?

i dont know if my boyfriend is coming over later, but even if he does, i am nabbing my mothers laptop (as i do not have one of my own) and making that meeting i promised. it will be short, i think, but itll be worth it. i will also be changing the way i roleplay (no more colored speaking parts) so that its easier for me to go about the board on my phone. hopefully that much will help me get back together.

so, quick checklist for me: meeting, hp meeting after that, and an event that i beg for you guys to help me create. it can be a week long thing, a contest maybe. a good one. i hope for this thread to turn into a plot thread, if anything. make something good out of this sad, dismal suggestion. any ideas for the way the clan can go? i am open for just about anything.

again, guys, im so sorry. i will be making the effort today to make rping on mobile easier for me, therefore i can be around more. if my activity doesnt pick up, then i will own up to it and appoint a new leader. i promise that much. this board means a lot to me, and the clan means a lot to thea. i wouldnt want to stall its life just because i cant be around, or i may be a bit greedy. but i promise, i will step down if this attempt at revamping myself doesnt help.

anyways, like i said before, anyone have ideas for a clan event? i would prefer something week long, something that everyone can hop on and make different threads about. the ball, too, should be set up and posted. maybe ill do it, i dont know. anything to keep you guys happy.

again. i am so, so sorry. i dont think ill ever stop apologizing, really. so dont expect it to end aha.

@ cookies specifically, thank you for posting this. i really appreciate this attempt at keeping the board active. honestly, if i didnt respond, i would have bern fine with a permanent take over. just, thank you. a lot. ill try to get my activity up, and ill try my best, but still thank you.

[justify][size=8]ianthe should have been the first to arrive. it would only be right, as queen. yet, here she was, struggling to trot along. it wasn't as if she had an injury or anything, she was just fairly inactive. getting back to her paws would be a steady process, and maybe even slow, but she was trying, at least.

the winged feline touched ground next to athena, observing the newcomer. sweeny todd, ambassador to palisadeclan. honestly, sylvanclan deserved much better allies. therefore, ianthe would make a move to become a better ally. and she was sure her clan would follow in suit.

"its nice to meet you, mr. todd! sorry about my absence. it should be picked up real soon." she dipped her head with her apology. "that said, welcome to palisadeclan. i'm ianthe, the queen. how's your clan?" she wasn't sure if the question was already asked, but she might as well pitch in.

[justify][size=8]thea hadn't heard the name 'eric' in a long while. at least, spoken out by clanmates. the name was constantly muttered in the back of her head. during her inactivity, she would make out his voice yelling at her. if he was there, he would tell her to move her ass and get going. he may have hated everyone, but this clan was his life, and he wouldn't let her ruin it the way she did.

ah, bad ianthe. you didn't ruin it. the calico shook her head roughly before following the whirr of athena's fans, assuming her marchioness had interacted with the small, meek voice that claimed to be the strong, stripeless tiger. ianthe didn't know what she wanted, a delusional child or the loud mouth to whip her back into shape.

soon enough, her paws stopped and she was between sinkingkit and athena. this little child had managed to say eric's name and, earlier, her own. and with such urgency that she'd expect to run into someone she knew, eric or not. but, this child... this one wasn't familiar to her. "eric? last i checked, eric was a big tiger, not a small kit." her voice had no distaste or displeasure. disappointment, maybe, but she covered it up with a giggle. "what's your real name, sweetie?"

[justify][size=8]i started the meeting but mom pulled me to go cash my check so ill finish it when i come back i promise

[justify][size=8]her lack of appearance scared the feline so much, she didn't even know if she wanted to show up at all. maybe disappearing would be better. then again, that's what leafstar did. he just drifted away. same with malakai, reyna, juno, paramedictones, imogen, and even her own father. all leaders that she looked up to drifted away as soon as they possibly could. she didn't want to be one of them. she wanted to be better. and yet, here she was, scared to walk in front of her dismal clan and call together a meeting.

her fur ruffled as she sat, eyes narrowed at the few cats who were just lingering in the ball room. few shot glances her away, and she heard few murmurs and snickers. they bothered her easily, but only pushed her to think better. she could be better. she could be great. "everyone! i'm calling a clan meeting!!" she called, voice booming. despite how loud it was, the tone still had underlying fear. she rolled her shoulders back and continued without much more hesitation.

"as like last week, i'm sorry for my inactivity, and the general inactivity of the clan. i'm beginning to buckle down, and as should all of you." that last remark was hinting towards a takeover. next time she falls this inactive, they should just go ahead and take the clan to a better world. "i'm starting out with demotions, just to get them out of the way. sanzu, pastelpaints, and danny are all demoted. you may all be repromoted, if your activity returns. sinkingkit, kakima, and frenchie, i need you all to bump up your activity." her voice shook a little as she mentioned a few of the names, but she didn't stop to regain herself. she continued.

"a shoutout and promotion to athena. a special promotion, at that. athena," she searched the still growing crowd for the android owl. "you have been active in my absence, and your roleplayer practically kicked mine off her busy butt. that said, i want you to step up next to lovelykit. you both will be my princesses." her head dipped, hoping her decision would be okay with the rest of the clan. once there was a round of congratulations, she looked up again. "lovelykit, i would also like to commend you a shoutout. thank you for being there, as well."

"for everyone who just joined, sorry for the long wait of finally meeting your queen. thank you for sticking here, and i hope you don't regret it." she took another breath. "i don't have much planned yet to make up for my absence, but my hps will be called to my room for an exclusive meeting about affairs outside of this clan. i will also bump both the mass adoptions and the hp tryouts threads, to hopefully bring more people to our clan." she paused. "if anyone has any other ideas, please, bring it up to me at the idea meeting, which will also go up shortly."

"i need a volunteer for weekly tasks, i will have it stickied this time. also, volunteers to bring seaglassclan and sylvanclan gifts." she took a deep breath, hoping some creatures would step up for some of the spots. her short burst of nervousness, something she rarely felt before, was dissipating and she was growing back the happy glow she usually had.

her eyes drifted over the crowd, lips pulled into a small, encouraging grin. "everyone, i just want you all to know that we can do this. we can get our clan back on its feet, we can steer it on the right path and bring it to victory. just please, stick with us, and we'll be somewhere in a matter of months."

[justify][size=8]just at it ripped at lovelykit to hear sinkingkit's sorrows and cries for, essentially, help, it tore at ianthe. even before oakfern or clearrain left, ianthe felt a strong pull towards the kits. she wanted to love them as her own, and when the parents were gone, she took the opportunity by the reins and acted as a mother.

guess it wasn't good enough for the young countess.

ianthe still approached, her movements stiff as she couldn't decide whether she wanted to comfort sinkingkit, or chide her for being ignorant. i mean, they were all kids here, really. atn may as well have been the only real adult. therefore, ianthe had no pull on sinkingkit, and couldn't tell the young one to stop being... well, the way she was being.

"sinkingkit, the poor tree did nothing to you." she started, deciding to take the comforting route. she settled next to ve, pulling her tail to loosely wrap it around the other, in case sink decided to lash out against them. "the tree didn't take your parents, or your siblings. just like you didn't scare them away." she kept her voice in a low tone, even with a hint of care. "creatures come and go, sink. you need to be strong for when they do. you may go crazy, otherwise, and i don't know of one pirate who's crazy." she didn't know any pirates, so it wasn't a lie.

[justify][size=8]bumps this!!
i hope those who dropped their characters don't mind me still using their forms. please tell me if you do mind!!

[justify][size=8][ i'm riled up about the psats and i will cry if someone tells me theyre not important rip ]

ianthe trotted over to her room, her high positions, and semi high if they wished to attend, in tow. she held the door open for each of them before following them in and settling herself down at the foot of her bed, which happened to be big enough for a teenage human. she motioned for the others to hop up and join her before speaking.

"again, my inactivity is inexcusable. i'm so, so sorry. but, i want to fix it, and i need your help. first order of business, allies. i am in the process of making an ideas meeting for the whole clan, but ideas for individual allies or the clan itself is welcome here, too. as well as new possible allies, if we wish to add any on. what do you guys think?"

[justify][size=8]"alright, everyone! gather around. we're gonna be talking ideas here." it was the main hall where she spoke out. "we need in-clan, out of clan. one ally invited, both invited. new possible ally events. anything goes!" she purred.

[ the ooc aspect of this would be discussing murder mystery or plague or whatever. bc, i don't think our characters would suggest it. maybe. i mean, it could be a fake murder mystery, allies involved. that sounds fun can we do it ]

[justify][size=8]she enjoyed the party the foundation threw, and even though it took her a while to come around, she did. her paws stopped directly at the border, hoping to see someone soon. after all, she couldn't leave her own clan hanging for long.

[justify][size=8]her expression dropped from amused to sadness, then back up a little as she tried to hide the latter. "i found him murdered, eric." she hummed, her tone even. it was as if the death didn't bother her, when most knew she was a nervous wreck for weeks after the incident. "he was dead before i got to him. i couldn't save him. i'm... sorry." she didn't know why she was apologizing to this kid, who seemed to be a stranger yet knew a lot of this clan. about them. about her.

the nickname combined with his name threw her off. she was always ianthe, the brat, the bug. she'd get squished underneath his paws. those were the first words he thought about her. did being transferred to a new body change that? "she never came back, either." she decided to answer the other question before drowning herself in questions she would never find the answers to.

"you're going to get cold out here, eri. climb on my back, i'll fly you to the castle." assuming this is still the old territory lol

[justify][size=8]ianthe never encountered a pity story such as this one. everyone who joined, joined because they had to or wanted to. not because they were abandoned, such as moonkit. ianthe fluttered her dainty wings as she settled beside frenchie, listening to the hushed, telepathic voice.

"like ve said, lets bring you to camp." she purred to the child, still oblivious to her disabilities. "we'll take real good care of you, i promise." there she went, making promises she didn't have the means to keep.

[justify][size=8]bruh good luck to you i could barely manage three clans
