#Spottedleaf's Heart

[tarkatan]

Thistleclaw's death, caused by his own arrogance and misdeeds.

He shouldn't have antagonized the RiverClan medicine cats, who were rightfully looking for herbs at Sunningrocks. He didn't know that Spottedleaf told her fellow healers what he had tried to do to her, though. Brambleberry and Mudfur in particular took it to heart...

Family I was dreaming about for all of my life

Upd. When I was a child I loved Spottedleaf and Spottedfire SO MUCH and I love Spottedleaf now too but the age gap makes me feel uncomfortable..... I've been groomed and I finally realise that such relationships is NOT a good thing.

Now I headcanone that Spotted fell in love with Fire only when he was in Skyclan. And I also prefer to see her as his mom figure. However I wanted to show this family bc I hate SandFire xd and any molly would be the best choice over Sandstorm. It's like a gift for younger myself okay? I'm trying to love me again and it's really hard. Thanks for supporting me and my art! It's really important for me :")

Batear and Fenneldust

i swear they used to have pages on the american wc wiki, since that's where i got the prefix bat for one of my ocs. as it stands, i got my info for them by google translating a dif wiki page lmao.

i've decided they're divorced, cause that's an extremely funny dynamic for df cats to have, and anyway, they're barely cannon as is. basically ocs to me <33. i do wish they still had pages on the american wiki tho, i mean, there's some other Su cats that still have one

anyway, i did one design for Batear based on Bunnicula. i realized he looked sprt of bunnyish, and with the bat prefix it was the perfect opportunity <33

sometimes i think about tigerpaw.

tigerpaw who just lost his father figure, and had thistleclaw as a replacement. His strong, brave, noble mentor. 

A mentor who taught him an ideology of violence, forced him to train with his claws out all the time (which is literally risking his life in addition to being abusive! in the warriors universe they don’t have antibiotics so every single time a wound happens you risk infection and death), and molded him into the perfect little hyperviolent warrior whitepaw could never be, despite his best efforts. molded him into the kind of cat who would think mauling a kitten is okay.

and I get very sad.

Thistleclaw, even pre-SPH, has a knack for traumatizing children (whitepaw, tigerpaw, tiny). It makes sense to me he’d become a groomer because hurting young cats around him is one of like 3 of his personality traits! He has been an abuser from his first onscreen appearance [although I do sympathize with former thistleclaw fans a lot; the concept of a morally ambiguous asshole you like suddenly being retconned into a pedophile is horrifying. I just don’t enjoy people claiming he was never bad.] The ripple effects from his actions and the way he hurt other cats stretch all the way into TBC, and I once made an au where thistleclaw died right after siring whitestorm and So Many Things do not happen, it’s insane.

This fandom doesn’t rlly focus enough on the fact that tigerpaw wasn’t just thistleclaw’s lackey. he was his teenaged victim.

my ultimate take on spottedleaf's heart is that I don't think hard topics are necessarily out of place in a children's story. unfortunately, many children will go through some bad shit in their lives. warrior cats already has really hard topics in it like imperialism, prejudice, murder, war, miscarriage, bullying, domestic abuse, and cheating, just to name a few. of course... it doesn't handle many of these well, because warrior cats is just... Like That, as we know. but in a hypothetical world where warrior cats approaches all of these tough topics with respect and care, i think that showing a creepy, predatory relationship like the one between spottedpaw and thistleclaw could actually be beneficial for young readers. spottedleaf's heart couldve been a story telling children "hey, if an adult acts like this to you, TELL SOMEBODY! IT'S NOT OKAY!" i think it couldve helped young readers in terrible, awful situations, to see a character going through what's happening to them, and to be told "this isn't okay. it doesn't matter who an adult is, if they are hurting you, it's not right, and you deserve to be safe. and if an adult ever acts like this, you should tell somebody you trust." i think that's like... a fine thing to tell kids, i don't consider that inappropriate. an alternate telling of spottedleaf's heart where bluefur, thrushpelt, sunstar, featherwhisker, adderfang, swiftbreeze, or any other adult in Spottedpaw's life sees what's happening to her and helps her, lets her know that it's not her fault? i think even if the topic is tough, that wouldve been a much better outcome for the story, and would be much more of a constructive message to give young readers who are going to relate to the protagonist who's their age. overall i just think the biggest issue is in execution and framing, making the overall message "spottedleaf was so foolish to fall in love with thistleclaw!!" instead of "spottedleaf was a victim of grooming, it's thistleclaw's fault for behaving inappropriately and hurting her because he's an adult"

#dia noises #warrior cats #spottedleaf's heart #tw grooming #i think bluefur specifically wouldve been the best choice because of how her parents relationship was #spottedleaf is a character who i have complicated feelings about #i wish she was in a better written series

Wanted to make her a tortie but settled for heterochromia instead.

Wiki Description: Brindleface is a pale gray tabby she-cat with darker flecks and green eyes.

I feel like you don’t necessarily need to have Spottedpaw tell anyone for others to notice and do something about it- a lot of victims of grooming don’t know that what they’re going through is wrong. Maybe it’s just cuz it would be cathartic for me specifically But having others in the Clan paying attention and taking action on their own might be more satisfying than justice relying solely on Spottedpaw’s ability to articulate what he’s doing to her. Just my thoughts tho ofc, i just saw the ask that said “I can’t believe Spotted didn’t even tell anyone” and it got me thinking.

This is a really good point! I didn't think about that!

I think it would be good if someone actually noticed and did something about it as it is very true that a lot of kids don't realize they are being groomed.

Maybe Bluefrost notices? she already does not trust Thistle, so I feel like she would be the one watching him most, plus she knows what a groomer is like bec her dad groomed her mom (which i don't think many ppl talk abt).

Actually this whole situation could open up a conversation in the Order about grooming and how cats really should not be letting some of these relationships slide. (tho if they point out Stormtail's actions that may put Raven and Dust's existence in jeopardy heh)
