Emotion Powers, Activate!

**vellichor** · #1 November 26th, 2020, 10:40 PM

so, Snailswirl got a power around a month or two ago — the power to "see" emotions by auras or "glows" around a cat. each color represents a different emotion, as well as the intensity of the color. by now, they’re completely used to this. it doesn’t help much, but has made their job minutely easier.

part of this power that they have yet to discover is that it allows them to kind of change a cat’s emotions. they have never attempted this, and don’t even know they have the ability to do this. this process will make them tired and physically drained, though.

i’m looking for some character to kind of help them discover this. the options are pretty much as follows:

— some emotionally distressed cat to come in and either complain about their life and ask for help with their sadness, snail talks to them and zap, they feel better
— some genuinely upset cat to come in and ask for a "sadness cure" of some sort. cue snail feeling bad and trying to talk to the poor cat about it, end up accidentally making them feel good with emotion powers
— any other idea you guys might have — i’m open to suggestions!

no form! just let me know who your characters are and why they’re coming in / potential plot ideas!

please do not quote this post — instead, mention me! (:

They could try to calm down Hedgekit and either fail or succeed. She is a concentrated bottle of pure rage. Anything can set her off to go on a rampage.

If Snail doesn't mind another Echo tantrum, I can chuck Echowind at them. She nearly died kitting recently and one of her kits was stillborn and Twilightstar found out about her forbidden mate so she's very upset and would be glad to go complain to Snail @elysian

ok so sparrow has been really stressed lately due to snake and the plants screaming at him, so maybe snail could help him with that after the mc meeting? @elysian

Shockholly has been feeling horrible lately because they haven't been able to help Gullpaw feel better and getting sick actually made them less able to help her.
If Mango is alright with it, I'd like Shock to talk to Snail about possibly helping them make Gullpaw feel better, to help her out of her depressive state if possible, even if for a moment.
I know Snail doesn't like Gull, but perhaps he can put that dislike aside long enough to at least talk about it?

Eaglepaw's still pretty sad that Rushingpaw died. It's been a few moons but he's kind of depressed. Maybe he could come in and talk to snail about it?

Sure. She revealed her beliefs already to Twi when twi mentioned a final assessment, grumbling about how it doesn’t matter it’s just another name and a new den.
