Spirit of the Staircase

The French have this phrase, l'esprit d'escalier. Literally, it translates as "the spirit of the staircase" but what it actually means is the things you think of to say after it’s already too late and you’re on your way out.
The spirit of the staircase was with me the whole walk home as I thought of better comebacks I should have said to him when we had that argument.

Starclan

Starclan is the heavan-like sanctuary that Warrior cats go to when they die, if they were... not totally evil. Almost all ancient cats that died in the past went to Starclan, with Tigerstar, Darkstripe, Brokenstar, and Hawkfrost as exceptions, cuz they ARE totally evil.
Starclan cats "live" on Starclans hunting grounds, which is forest, but its sorta.... starry, like the cats.
