Bad Endings and Dark AUs are up my alley lol.
TW: Death, Bullying, Postpartum Depression,
Instead of just Penny dying, both Penny and Cinnamon die due to complications of the genetic DNA of felines and canines trying to mix but failing. This brings Saffron and Pumpkin great sorrow as their children can never be because of their DNA differences. Saffron falls into postpartum depression due to the pregnancy and the loss of her children. Due to this, Clyde starts getting neglected by Saffron, Saffron and Pumpkin's relationship start to wear down due to differences of what their relationship is now and where they're going to take it. Society still targets them for their taboo relationship, Clyde continues to get bullied and beaten by society not being given any help or support because Saffron is dealing with her depression and Pumpkin is too frustrated trying to hold onto this relationship.
Eventually, Pumpkin had enough with Saffron and leaves her, giving society an excuse to say they were right about not allowing felines and canines to be in relationships because this is what happens to them. Almost all of Saffron's traits go more extreme on how she acts. Her motherly trait fades away, not wanting to be reminded of the kids she could never have. She's less sympathetic because why would she be sympathetic to others when they were never sympathetic to her and her situation?, she's more arrogant and nosy and insensitive to fool herself and society, and she's much more insecure because of everything that's happened. Her job as a bartender allows her to start sleeping around and drinking more to lose herself away from reality.
Her and Clyde's relationship faded away. Clyde resents his mother for never being there for him when he was being bullied and beaten, growing up protecting himself he moved out when he could and never looked back.
This is all I got for Saffron. It isn't as dark as I thought it would had been lol but it's still a bad ending nonetheless. Felt like I overdid it in some places though ngl.
I'm not the first poster, but I always like to give some character options for people to choose from. So here's Dae-Hyun, Seiga, and Ruka to choose from. Have your pick lol go ham on it
