#i feel like a few warrior cats characters had the makings to be aroace and then got fucked over by the plot

[diseaseriddencube]

i was wondering why people were making it out to be such a huge thing that alastor is aroace canonically....and then i tried to think of literally any other character i've seen that's canonically aro or ace....yeah i'm coming up empty 😍

#rave ramblees #hazbin hotel #i feel like a few warrior cats characters had the makings to be aroace and then got fucked over by the plot #iirc bluestar wasn't interested in romance? and then....oakheart 😩 #I know Sunny wof is ace in popular *fanon* #OH WAIT PERIDOT #who was....only confirmed aroace in second level canon #by a storyboarder....yeah #apparently lilith toh was confirmed outside of canon by the creator as aro? it wasn't really touched on in the show tho- #there's saiki k who isn't confirmed in any way #but it's so heavily implied in canon i'm just gonna take what i can get >:) #so...yeah it's literally Alastor sitting on the throne for aroace rep in canon #AND he's a tumblr sexyman #and we love him for that #suddenly seeing why this is kinda a big deal to people now #and why they're defending it so hard #because there is NOTHING ELSE in other media apparently #outside of headcanons that is-

i suppose i will christen this blog with my top 30 wc characters and talk about The Them. i did the favorite picker a few months back and yeah

of note i did not include anyone from avos on here bc i hadn’t read those books yet (i’m still only partway through tbc lol)

anyway swiftpaw is at the top bc i wrote a swiftpaw lives au and it has spiralled out of control into a 150k+ affair and counting, which i’ll have to make another post about. at any rate i adore him, i think he’s awesome, and i believe in swift/bright/cloud supremacy

ivypool is self explanatory. i think she’s Neat.

longtail and whitewing are both natural extensions of swiftpaw (swift/bright/cloud means he’s whitewing’s other dad in my head). plus i think longtail is super interesting as one of the only reformed villains, and whitewing is also really cool and a good friend/mom.

tallstar is my gay dad. nuff said

i hc mousewhisker as gay and trans for fun (sorry minnowmouse shippers) and he’s the mc of a top secret fanfic i’ve had on the backburner for years (and will continue to stay there bc it’s now entwined with swiftpaw fic and i have to write up to it) so basically i also love him. just a silly little guy

jayfeather, sorreltail, cinderpelt, and crowfeather are pretty standard faves i think. and possibly gray wing? idk he’s Also my dad. dotc was the first arc i read way back when so despite its flaws it’s very special to me. i like that gray wing was just sort of dragged into the plot but genuinely tried his best to do right by everyone even when no one else wanted to.

have you seen moonkitti’s talking video about poppyfrost? it converted me i’m a poppyfrost stan now.

brightheart, dovewing, squirrelflight, leafpool, and hollyleaf are all pretty standard faves as well. i personally headcanon nightcloud as aroace (or a lesbian depending on if i wanna ship squirrelnight. or both oriented aroaces are valid) who got just as much out of a marriage of convenience type deal with crowfeather as he did. i like that story better than her getting reduced to “crazy jealous wife” just because she messes up leafcrow. idc if it’s not canon, justice for nightcloud, she’s a good mom in a weird situation.

i feel like the last two rows are also pretty normal low-tier faves? extra-special shoutout to palebird tho, her arc is one of my favorite things about tallstar’s revenge and i am so glad she got to be happy eventually. her early appearances made me wanna cry with how cruel the other nursery queens were to her.

so there’s that, those are my favorite warriored cats. come tell me my taste is impeccable

#warrior cats #swiftpaw #longtail #whitewing #gray wing #palebird #idk im not tagging all them #nightcloud #there #i feel like the formatting is messed up but i can’t be bothered to fix it so pls pretend its not thanks

YOU!

Who's your favorite character that you would head canon as aroace!

Tell me!! (Politely of course)

AAA okay so i'm assuming this is characters in general from any medias SO Sunny from WoF and Storm from Survivor Dogs anddd Shadowsight from Warrior Cats i'm sure i have more but those were at the top of my head. i love my animal books series HAHA Storm might be my absolute favorite from the bunch simply becuase I can relate to her soo much, and her character just felt THE MOST aroace out of all of these. Like I personally believe that the writers must have based her off of people in real life who are aroace without KNOWING those people are aroace. She actively is confused by romance, and seems to find the idea of being that close with someone repulsive. And when she asks someone older than her about it, they kind of just. Laugh and say "You'll understand when you are older" which is smth a lot of aroaces tend to hear, and that just makes me further believe she is aroace. I love her sm.

Sunny is a bit harder to explain cause I don't remember much about WoF, but it to put it into perspective, I actually thought she was meant to be an aroace character. Like I thought it was canon. Cause I knew it had other LGBTQ characters, I thought it would have an aroace too. I would have 100% believed that if I hadn't went on to see that the writer said she had "the perfect match for Sunny" (or some silly thing like that).

and then Shadowsight. I don't really have much to say about him other than he is one of the few medicine cats that don't seem to show any interest in EVER having a mate. I actually headcanon several cats as aroace (imo there's just so many cats in this series LOL) but he is my favorite and he's a main character. He doesn't have any moments that i read as "ew I don't want that" like the other two, he just never seems to think about it, it feels very aroace to me.

sorry i rambled so much HAHA i love talking about aroace characters
