## Backstory

#### Pre-Clan Life

Stacy was born as a stray in what's most likely the same twolegplace that everyone else came from- Permafrost, Bluecloud, Rillwing, Ashface, Hazel, etc. Her mom was killed by rats only a few days after giving birth to her, so she and her siblings were found by humans and taken in by some animal shelter. All of Stacy's siblings got adopted. She wasn't. She was there for, like, the first year of her life. The shelter peeps were like "welp, we're outta room, we gotta make some" and so Stacy was scheduled for euthanasia.

This is when she met Tangle. He was a dirty lil feral that they'd taken in. He was also scheduled to be euthanized, except he actually knew what was going on. And he wasn't going to have any of it. He'd formulated an escape plan (by which I mean, as soon as the poor underpaid worker opened the cage, flip out and claw them, then run for the door). He shared this plan with Stacy and the one other cat who was about to be doomed, a crusty old man cat. When the time came, they tried to run with the plan. Stacy and Tangle somehow escaped, but old man cat was caught. F in the chat for old man cat.

Anyways, Stacy and Tangle were then on the streets. Stacy was twelve moons old and had no idea how to exist on the streets. Tangle, who'd been a street cat for his whole life, was happy to teach her the basics. He advised her to change her name, and mentioned that the twolegs had called him Charlie, but he preferred to call himself Tangle because twoleg names were stupid. Stacy agreed somewhat confusedly, but didn't know what to name herself, so Tangle named her Ice.

For the next several moons, Ice and Tangle just lived as strays. Tangle took Ice back to his little alleyway and introduced her to a few of his alleycat friends that vibed there with him, named Smoky and Paint. Ice thought it was neat. Smoky and Paint liked her. They all got along well and were buddies, and they legit just lived there and chilled for a a long time while Tangle taught Ice how to hunt and defend herself. She got pretty tight with Tangle, admiring his skills and all that. She liked her new life. She got pretty good at fending for herself, too. She'd spar and stuff with Tangle while Paint and Smoky would critique her performance and that sort of thing. It was nice. Everything was nice.

When she was seventeen moons old, though, Smoky got hit by a car. Oof. Paint was an idiot and ran onto the street afterwards, and subsequently got picked up and yeeted away by the humans, along with the injured Smoky, most likely to the vet or something. So... Tangle and Ice were suddenly on their own again. Good job, guys. They sort of tried to follow the car, but they lost track of it pretty quickly and instead ended up accidentally leaving twolegplace. Tangle didn't like that. He wanted to go back to the home he was used to. But Ice thought it was cool and an adventure, so she sort of dragged him with her and they went exploring in the lands beyond the city.

While doing that, they sort of got closer. Ice realized she was pregnant before too long. That was sort of alarming for both of them, as neither of them had actually been expecting to have kits, but they kind of awkwardly became mates after that. Anyways, they kept traveling until they reached the edge of FallClan territory. They thought all the water was funky, though, so they just kept going until they ended up on the MarshClan border. They cruised into their territory and kept wandering around until someone stopped them and was like "hey. yo. watcha doin".

They learned about the Clans and stuff. Ice thought it was great. Tangle didn't. They talked it over, and eventually decided that Ice should get to stay in MarshClan so that their kits could be born in a safe place, and Tangle would continue to vibe on the outskirts of the territory and would occasionally visit the camp to check up on her - or vice versa, and she could see him at the outer border.

#### Clan Life

Ice was accepted into MarshClan under the name of Icefall. For a while, she just vibed in the nursery with Cedarpoppy and Basilpool while she waited for her kits to be born. Tangle stopped by occasionally to visit, and she occasionally stopped by the border to visit him, too. She couldn't help but feel somewhat frustrated with him, though - she didn't understand why he didn't want to join MarshClan and be there for his family.

Eventually, with the help of the medicine cats, Whitebird and Featherpaw, Icefall gave birth to her three kits. One of the messengers, Sootsnow, was sent to fetch Tangle. He arrived after a bit, and they named the kits together - Rookkit for the she-kit, and Antkit and Snakekit for the toms. Icefall loved her new kits deeply, and was startled when Tangle immediately asked her when she planned to leave. She'd actually grown rather comfortable in MarshClan, and she was now planning to stay there until their kits were at least six moons old. Tangle was unhappy to hear that and pulled her aside, leaving the three newborns under the care of Cedarpoppy and Basilpool. The two of them sat down outside of the camp and got into a brief argument about it, but Tangle eventually gave in, not wanting to ruin the mood. He agreed to stick around for six more months and then decided on their next course of action. Icefall was somewhat relieved about this, but she was still upset with Tangle, having hoped that the kits would make him change his mind about returning to twolegplace.

Currently, Icefall is still chilling with her kits in the nursery. She's happy for her new MarshClan friends since both of their litters have either been born or are almost born. She's still somewhat bitter at her mate, though, for he doesn't seem totally comfortable around his kits. She wants to stay in the Clans and just doesn't get why he dislikes it so much.

#### Trivia

* Icefall plays favorites. She likes Rookkit the most out of all of her kits. I mean, she loves them all, of course, and treats them the same. But she is especially fond of Rookkit.
