Someone very important, on account of knowing Bellwether personally and being the president, to my stories


President Forraeder "Forry" Falkland is memorable for many reasons. He was the first Bunny to be elected president, there's someone I know named Marinella (some bisexual transvestite bloke) who I think might be his son via cloning or something, he was our first demisexual president, and he knew personally the current Public Enemy Number One, Dawn Marison Bellwether. They even grew up in the same town at the same time as not only each other, but my parents: Whitneyville. From the age of two, they were very close friends, growing up in low-income apartment complexes right next to each other. The apartment complexes were also on the side of the hallway opposite the one my parents shared since they were 12. They were also born on the same day of the same year, only 10 minutes and 30 seconds apart, only two years after my mom and dad. From an early age, they worked together to help their parents get by the only way that at least a quarter of Whitneyville's residents at the time could: scamming wealthier people. They would sometimes threaten to accuse a known child molester of, well, molesting them if he didn't pay them money to stay quiet. Then they got my dad involved, by taking advantage of the way the WPD treats predatory animals and having him willingly be the victim of Whitneyville's trademark "how does this happen in the 21st century" police brutality, and then pay him hush money. He never kept any of it, because he didn't feel the need to keep any of it.

Then, when they were both 16, they graduated from high school, and got scholarships to Lionheart University, run by Leodore Lionheart's father, Aslan Lionheart. That was when they both realized that they weren't exclusively heterosexual, with Falkland technically being heterosexual but having a remarkably low sex drive, only having sex about once a year at the age of 18, when I'm on the verge of breaking down and fucking a dustbin lid if I don't take something to lower my sex drive or just wank off or have sex. They both spun this as a positive, despite the way that people obviously and overtly judged them for it, by recognizing that they were more easily able to focus on academic achievement. They were both going for political science majors. They were very close friends, until something happened around the time of the final exams for their classes. Forraeder felt the urge to have sex with Dawn, and at first, he, having forgotten the last time he felt such urges, didn't know what was going on for a while. Then Bellwether offered him a deal: she would have sex with him if he told her the answers to the take-home final exams. He told her, they both passed, and she never had sex with him.

They both moved onto a career in politics, with Falkland going for a seat as a local senator for Zootopia, and Dawn wanting to be the mayor. While she never got the nomination for either party, she was picked as a running mate by Democratic Party candidate Leodore Lionheart. Meanwhile, as an alternative to their previous deal, Falkland asked Bellwether to either endorse him for senator or get Lionheart to endorse him. She refused. In return, Forraeder threatened to reveal her trickery and possibly force Lionheart to abandon her as a running mate, but to silence him, she car-bombed him. He survived, but three teenage unpaid interns in his car, working for his campaign in exchange for high school credit, didn't. He only survived because of cutting-edge cyber-prosthetics, which not only kept him alive, but changed his height from a barely-foreboding 3 feet tall to an intimidating 8 feet tall. Meanwhile, after that, he won the senate seat, and was about to tell on her, but she reminded him that he had no evidence (that he knew of, because Bellwether hid dash-cam footage that he got a hold of later) to convict her, and she could try all over again and would probably succeed. She remained Lionheart's running mate, and Lionheart won the race for mayor, and she became assistant mayor.

After the night howler incident, he uncovered the dash-cam footage I mentioned earlier, of her and some minions putting the car-bomb in Forraeder's limo, but by then, the statue of limitations for pressing charges against her have already expired. Luckily, she was going to jail for life anyways. About the time that she used a loophole to shorten her sentence to five years plus life on parole, Falkland ran for state senator of California, the state that Zootopia was in, just in case some people didn't know about the United States' geography. He won that election by a slim margin, having an approval rating of 52%, but after a while, that got down to 48%, until he went from opposing anti-discrimination ordinances for the LGBT community to supporting them, at which point it skyrocketed to 72%. Then, when Bellwether got out on parole, he ran for president, and won. The day that Bellwether went off the grid, she texted him a threat that I'll quote below:

"Oh, hey, Forry. It's me, your old pal Dawn. I've been keeping track of you for quite some time now, and it seems like you've been doing just fine without me. Just remember that I'm going to take over and put an end to that, though. If you want to survive long enough to maybe work for me, then you'd better not get in my way. Your new adopted brat had better not interfere either. Just remember that what I pulled on Lionheart AND what I pulled on you were just the beginning. I have a lot more in store for you. -Dawn Bellwether <3 ;)"
