#po3 with a gun

Note
What irritates me so much about the Leafpool and the three situation is: it's Starclan's fault. It never had to happen in cannon. Squirrelflight isn't barren. If the Erin's wanted drama, they could have made the three Ashfur's, and had Squirrel pretend they're Bramble's. I'm glad in BB you made her barren, but it still just irritates me. Leafpool got done so dirty. If I was in her paws, and after Bramble had me forcibly step down, I'd ask someone to honor sire (maybe from a different clan?) kits for me then look Bramble straight in the eye as I started showing.
It's one in a long list of "retcons that happened to reduce the agency of characters because the warrior fandom will otherwise find any reason to fucking hate women." I don't believe that Po3 was written with the revelation of Leafpool's Wish in mind.
(leafpool's wish is where the "barren/StarClan telling Squilf to take the kids" Thing comes from)
In fact, most books that come out seem to completely forget the detail. Squirrelflight's Hope doesn't mention it. Bramblestar's Storm totally omitted it. Squirrelflight is never pissed that StarClan literally lied to her.
So it makes it really feel like a less egregious version of Spottedleaf's Heart; a poorly thought-out addition specifically aimed at the fandom misogynists who write screeds about how Brambleclaw/Thistleclaw Were Good Actually and their shitty behavior was just a Bad Woman Who Wronged The Poor Babies.
AND to be clear what I'm getting at with this comparison is that both these books are awful, because they're cowardly. They don't stick to their guns and say, "BLUESTAR AND SQUIRRELFLIGHT WERE RIGHT TO MISTRUST THESE MEN BASED ON THE REASONS THEY HAD." They badly retcon in EXTRA reasons for them to come to the conclusions they did.
They concede to the fandom misogynist. Their existence agrees that the original reasons they had were weak, so the writers shoveled in extra horseshit to make them "more correct" to do what they did.
"Don't worry guys, it's not that Squirrelflight took her sister's children to protect everyone involved, and that she's right to mistrust her mate who trained in HELL and never revealed any of his own secrets until his shitty half-brother killed her dad once. Nope! God lied to her and told her to. Told her she was barren, even. Now Squilf can remain morally pure while Brambleclaw abuses the shit out of her. Soblem Prolved."
So like... I don't even think that they should have been Ashfur's. This worked perfectly fine as it was in Po3. Just commit, assholes. Bramblestar's an untrustworthy piece of shit. Condemn him for turning on his children, confirming every terrible suspicion Squirrelflight had. Point out that the Three get treated differently when the secret comes out. Ask what, exactly, Leafpool could have done differently and have people have different opinions on this.
but like. keep squirrelflight being barren :/ Please let women just be unable to have kids sometimes. Please.

Ivypool, Leafpool, and/or Bluestar for the ask game?
Three great options! Let’s go through them one by one.
First of all: the girlie! <3
Tumblr media
If you put a gun to my head and forced me to choose between Dovewing and Ivypool, I’d definitely say I’m more of an Ivypool fan. But really they exist symbiotically, you really can’t have the full girlie experience by excluding either. The two girls lost their youth, one to feelings of inadequacy and one to monumental expectations. And the disconnect between them and how they feel like the other has what they lack is a really compelling core of a dynamic. I find Ivypool’s more grounded concerns resonate with me by virtue of being more grounded. But really, on an emotional level I have been both Dovewing and Ivypool at some point in my life. I’m not choosing the more relatable one to be my fav.
And now onto Leafie:
Tumblr media
(As a reminder to everyone, I’ve not read TNP yet and am unlikely to do so in the near future.)
Leafpool is a really compelling supporting character. Out of the core of TNP characters relegated to a support role in Po3-OotS: Leafpool, Squirrelflight, Brambleclaw, and Crowfeather I think she has the strongest personality and the most interesting story. She’s a really compelling tragic figure, puppeted around by the forces of fate and trying to make the best out of a lose-lose-lose situation. Although she can get really frustrating in moments where the authors decide to make her the vessel of their unexamined ableist attitudes, I also think she makes for a good dynamic with Jayfeather. Jayfeather and Leafpool are one of my favorite dynamics to write, if I can cram a conversation between those two into one of my stories, the words are just guaranteed to flow. When I write plots centered around her I fluctuate between “Leafpool gets everything she wants and faces no consequences whatsoever” and just turning the dial up to 11 in how much I can play up her tragic situation as the toy of fate.
And finally, Bluestar:
Tumblr media
Another interesting tragic figure in the same vein as Leafpool. Constantly betrayed and seemingly abandoned by StarClan after all the sacrifices she’s made for their sake and for the sake of her Clan. Seeing her mental health deteriorate and the suffering it brought ThunderClan was heart-wrenching. Really impressed with how it was handled, perhaps one of my favorite plotlines in the series. I’ve yet to read Bluestar’s prophecy and I hear that one is a must-read, so maybe I’ll get to like her even more whenever I do.

I’m on computer this time so it’s time for a proper Inscryption spoiler post about the recent news over Old Data, this time with photos.
SPOILERS FOR NOT JUST INSCRYPTION BUT ALSO THE HEX.
Ok, now that we can talk.
0) FIRST OFF, THE LUCKY CARDER YOUTUBE CHANNEL:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJRJ0UymMLfutSy0RBxYH4w
Honestly go check it out for more mind fuck. It contains some The Hex spoilers tho.
1) Someone on Reddit checked the files for Inscryption to specifically check the photos that show up during the final OLD_DATA sequence.
https://www.reddit.com/r/inscryption/comments/qgfdk8/i_finished_the_game_and_now_i_cant_sleep/
This is what they found:
Tumblr media
Hitler’s Bunker.
Tumblr media
I think it’s a generic bunker image this one.
Tumblr media
A non combatant certificate for the department of defence from 1954 for a certain Barry Reginald Wilkinson. Reasons for issuing this certificate are unknown.
Tumblr media
AI generated image of a person that does not exist.
Tumblr media
A pocket.
Tumblr media
A field on the side of a road.
Tumblr media
Whatever the fuck this is also seems to be a recurring image within the files of the game.
2) On a side note, after getting a better look at the Sado freeze frame, and it’s apparently only on Amanda (The supposed GameFuna’s employee that ends up shooting Luke), specifically replacing her face with hers.
Given how it’s implied that Sado escaped the game world at the end of The Hex, and is now in our reality, Amanda might simply be the body she’s currently using to achieve her goals, since shapeshifting was one of her many powers.
Tumblr media
Sado for reference (The other guy is a cooking game character that was forced into a fighting game against his will, when all he wanted to do was bake pies with his Grandma).
Sado is also a Malware Character created by Carla Dosa, Lionel Snill’s former best friend and top employee, who decided to curse him after he ran away with the money and mass sacked his other workers after the Secrets of Legendaria fiasco, by having her infect all of his games. She designed her for the fighting game as the ONE OF TWO only female characters in the game, because Lionel was a sexist asshole about it too, got really angry over the other female character being a generic scantly clad elven woman, which topped with the fact she not only had to drop her last year of university to start working for him, but also the fact that post SoL she ended up ruined by her association with the game AND by the fact her supposed best friend just, again, sacked her with no severance and ran away with all the money that were left, which, again, led her to create Sado the malware.
Sado is also demonic in origin, since Carla used devil magic or some shit in the code when she made her, which would explain the following point:
3) So, in Act 3, you can get something called “Holopelts,” a virtually useless item since the Trader is nowhere in sight, as Po3 points out. If you get all of them you get an achievement.
However, if you reach the final stage, and open the lock in the room to Golly’s left in the game board, the room to your left OUTSIDE OF THE GAMEBOARD will be opened, and the Trader, now permanently fused with the Trapper and using They Pronouns, will be there as an hologram, where you can trade secrets for your pelts.
The secrets are what she could see from the OLD_DATA.
The “Secrets” Cards, styled after the Major Arcana, and are physical cards in the same style as Grimoria’s cards from her Gamemaster game, and are therefore thus:
0) THE FOOL: The card is a large ear. The card refers to someone known as “Big Ear,” who did not outlive his plot, and who helped smuggle OLD_DATA from across the sea, but was ultimately discovered and gunned down. The person in question is Barry Wilkinson, the man from the Department of Defence card, as the Trader refers to him as “Poor Barry.”
III) THE EMPRESS: Featuring a skeleton person at a computer with a triangle in hand (Gamefuna’s logo is a blue triangle), the card represents Kaycee, the Game Dev of Inscryption. There were probably other game devs, but Kaycee is the one who was doing quality testing and control of it, and whose name was also “inscrybed” into one of the characters, one of Grimoria’s three skeleton underlings. The secrets ends with the reveal that she found OLD_DATA in her testing, and discovered many things in it.
XIII) DEATH: A skeleton with behind a radiation symbol. It’s the Karnoffel Code, the thing the Mychologist, who is rejected by all 4 scribes in the base game and is a secret boss fight in the third act, is trying to understand by combining two identical codes together. The Trader has managed to understood some of it, and is horrified by their discovery.
“The Code is in the Cards, and then Oblivion”
Incidentally, Luke Carder is also trying to figure out the code IRL, but the camera feed, again, currently controlled by a GameFuna product, always cuts out or turns the CC to binary when he’s about to mention it, making it look like he’s simply going insane due to the nature of the game, or even OLD_DATA.
That said, the five Tarot Cards the Trader has been showing you each have 8 numbers in binary, which in order from 0 to XVI give you the following code:
0) 00000000 III) 00000011 XIII) 00001101 XV) 00001111 XVI) 00010000
(Which appears to be their number in Binary)
XV) THE DEVIL: OLD_DATA. The Trader claims the data is a curse, so malignant it will never be erased, and who is a corrupting influence on every character in the game. It is the one to blame for the Scrybes animosity toward one another, and it is the one who created the Karnoffel code.
FUN FACT: Karnoffel is the first recorded card game in existence.
XVI) THE TOWER: A resplendent tower with a triangle on top of it. The Trader admits they do not know about the specifics of the creation of the game itself, so the Tower symbolizes the place where it was created, GameFuna’s headquarters. The Trader then concludes that a Blue Man visited them while they were being created.
The Blue Man is another The Hex character, Irving:
Tumblr media
Irving isn’t actually a game character, he’s a digital assistant from GameWerks, a program for videogame making sponsored by GameFuna (Much like CameraWerks, the program Luke is using to make videos, is).
He’s seen as an enforcer of the developer of by the other game character, and is usually a slave driver among other things. He appears in one of the corrupted videos in Luke Carder’s Youtube channel, right as he cripples a videogame character almost to death due to its obsolescence.
This means that, during development, the Blue Triangle Powers (GameWerks) were used to beat the world of Inscryption into space, which we could already assume by the presence of another Stock Character from the GameWerks engine, the Mechanic Goblin Biker Girl that Fixes Bridges and other Roadblocks (TM).
4) The Mychologist Secret Boss Battle.
If you created all 4 instances of spore cards during act 2, you will gain a key that will allow you to enter the Mychologist’s hut in Act 3, hidden away in a secret zone, roughly in the same place it would be during act 2.
The Mychologist will take control of Po3, and will begin experimenting with you in a boss battle, while also using actual actors for their images in the bot’s screen.
Tumblr media
Notice, if you will, that the bigger head happens to be the same as Barry, the Spy who smuggled OLD_DATA across the seas.
At the end of the boss battle, the Mychologist will be able to combine two cards into one, creating this:
Tumblr media
It’s a fragment of the old code, which prompts the Mychologist to erase Po3 memory of what happened, and remove themselves from its programming, going off to study the code somewhere else.
5) Side note, but during the very last video we see of Luke, the camera begins emitting strange sounds the SECOND he starts mentioning Inscryption to a journalist on the phone, which then leads to Amanda’s “visit” right as he mentions her, which gives credit to the theory that GameFuna is controlling the camera, if not outright Sado.
Nothing else I could find for now, however the Discord is actively working on it as we speak.

planned starter || @the-honorable-spartan​
Burning.
New Alexandria was burning.
From a tactical standpoint, it made sense. The Covenant always hit the population centres, especially ones of strategic importance. And New Alexandria fit the bill perfectly.
Emotionally? That was a different story.
Only a handful of hours ago, she’d witnessed the destruction of a Covenant Supercarrier and Corvette. She’d witnessed her teammate’s sacrifice; Jorge pushing her out of the ship so that she could help Noble Team finish its mission, quoting that his time was done, and it was up to her to make it count. And she’d witnessed a massive Covenant fleet arrive in-system.
In mere hours, they’d gone straight for New Alexandria. Rooting out its inhabitants, destroying its structures, maintaining air superiority so that the UNSC could not push back.
Artemis loathed that she was so damned late to the fight.
She also loathed that she couldn’t raise NOBLE on comms. She didn’t know if they were alive or dead; something told her it was the former, but anxiety told her the latter was still entirely possible. And so she did what she did best.
Played the part of the lone wolf.
Moving throughout the city, armed at first with only an M6G, trying to ignore the ache in her left leg, eventually scrounging up more useful weapons, following whatever directions she was given. Working alongside whomever it was necessary. Sometimes it was ODSTs. Sometimes Army. Even both.
There were rumours swirling about her, now. Some people were surprised, some were awed, the rest were relieved.
She was even halfway certain she’d heard they were calling her the Hero of New Alexandria.
I’m just one soldier. Just one Spartan. I don’t need that honour. I don’t deserve that honour. Give the title to some Marine. But not me.
Never me.
The whispered rumours were more prevalent as she began to close in on the landing pad at Traxus Tower for the final leg of this particular mission. Some of the soldiers were staring at her openly, hope glimmering in their tired eyes. The rest — including one very baby-faced Army Trooper — were checking their guns, ready to aid her in their next assault.
Eyeing the list of names on the bottom corner of her HUD — PVT. G. Thorne, PO3 C. Kotevski, PO3 M. Perez, SSGT. D. Wyman, LCPL. R. Haxgild — she motioned the mixed group of Helljumpers and Troopers over to where she stood, barrel of her stolen Brute Spiker pointing to the floor, head cocked to one side.
“On me, fireteam.”

DNA replication mechanisms
overall semi-conservative, not conservative or dispersive, DNA replication 
i.e., one strand of the parent helix serves as a template for the construction of a new strand that is identical to its complement, and thus daughter strand = template parent + newly synthesized complement
meselson-stahl experiment: parent E. coli DNA grown in 14N media is then placed in 15N heavy-isotope media to assess material composition of resulting daughter strands → define semi-conservative v. conservative/dispersive DNA replication
core components of DNA replication process - replication complex
1. DNA polymerase (2 total, for leading and lagging strand synthesis) - cleaves PO3 groups on dNTPS to catalyze high-energy phosphodiester bond formation → add properly paired nucleotides onto the 3′ end of a newly-synthesizing complementary strand
DNAP only acts to synthesize DNA in the presence of the following:
template strand, unwound from parent helical structure, in order to ensure conservation of encoded genetic information via accurate base pair sequences
RNA primer with 3′ OH end, for DNAP to bind to and begin chain synthesis
loose dNTPs to add to synthesizing strand as it grows (i.e., building block material with which to link into the single DNA strand)
2. DNA helicase - unwinds parent double helix to grant replication machinery binding access to single strands and key sites
3. single-strand DNA-binding proteins - bind to unwound single-strand DNA to keep it from reannealing during replication period
4. primase - generates 3′ OH RNA primers required for DNAP to begin synthesizing new DNA strand
5. exonuclease - removes RNA primers from OF’s and other areas to create daughter strands that are fully made of stable DNA
6. DNA ligase - general, jack-of-all-trades “glue-gun” that seals portions of backbone together throughout replication process
7. DNA topoisomerase - makes nicks in double helix ahead of DNA helicase, to ensure removal of too-tightly-wound supercoils that result from upstream unwinding
chronological process of DNA replication itself
1. initiation of replicative progression at the origin of replication along a chromosome
Initiator protein and accompanying complexes bind at sequentially-designated origin regions and recruit DNA helicase for unwinding parent double helix
unwinding creates replication bubble space of single-stranded DNA + protein machinery, flanked by two Y-shaped replication forks along which helix will keep unravelling bi-directionally 
prokaryotes have 1 origin of replication in a small, circular chromosome; eukaryotes can have replication simultaneously occurring at multiple origins along linear chromosome
2. elongation of synthesized areas in both directions from origin
elongation occurs along both unravelling forks, with each parent strand acting as a template to synthesize a daughter complement to itself
DNAP can only synthesize in 3′ → 5′ direction, so polarity of parent helix mandates that synthesis alongside one template strand be in 3′ → 5′ Okazaki fragments to bypass DNAP restrictions
OF-comprised daughter strand is the lagging strand, in contrast to easy 3′ → 5′ elongation of sister leading strand
OF-synthesis is initiated via bunches of similar 3′ OH RNA primers and OFs are sealed together into continuous lagging daughter strand by DNA ligase
1 of 2 DNAPs comes off and on the lagging template strand via clamp-loader in order to synthesize OF’s in a loop-like working structure
3. termination of replication portion/process at a designated point along chromosome
prokaryote - circular nature of chromosome naturally facilitates termination point and stability of DNA at endpoints
eukaryote - linear chromosomal structure creates lagging strand fragility at endpoints → stability achieved using telomere endpoint structures to “cap” chromosome ends after replication
core linear chromosomal issue is not fragility but rather insufficient space for lagging strand OF-related RNA primer synthesis at ends of linear chromosomes 
without RNA primers to stimulate DNAP synthesis at the ends of a linear chromosome, each replication round would generate shorter and shorter chromosomes
telomerase adds telomere (i.e., non-encoding DNA portion to which RNA 3′ OH primer can be attached) to prevent this eukaryotic issue from occurring
ensuring precise conservation of encoded genetic information during DNA replication process
cells have developed mechanistic safe-guards to ensure conservation in case of damage/mishap scenarios
1. template redundancy in two-strand double helix structure → each single strand can serve as a replication template with accurately encoded information, in case the other is destroyed
2. eons of selection for precision-point DNA replication machinery with proof-reading abilities (i.e., DNAP has a 1-nucleotide eraser in the 5′ →  3′ direction for instantaneous recognition of mistakes) that only extremely rarely make mistakes
3. arsenal of repair enzymes and complexes that detect and address mistakes post-synthesis, and even further on in cell cycle
note: even with these conservation mechanisms in place, mistakes still give rise to genetic mutation → rise of new gene alleles and corresponding phenotypes

tpons initial/reading thoughts
keeping my "liveblogging" in one place to maintain my mortorium on spoilers
tpons spoilers below the cut. obviously.
prologue
i swear to god if bramblestar comes back and i don't get squirrelstar i might actually seek out the collective representation of erin hunter and kill her
chapter one
bristlefrost.
bristlefrost, can you hear me [1].
jayfeather is under exactly the same stress as alderheart. so either you're implying alder is weak or you're in the "adoption isn't real" camp and i'm neutral on you as a character, i don't want to dislike you.
you know, i thought the scene in mtbnsof where all of thunderclan is like "yeah, let's just exile squirrelflight" [2] was exaggeration, and honestly i spent a long time workshopping it to make sure it felt natural, but apparently i didn't have to do that, because the characters are canonically OK with it!
do y'all want your leader back or bramblestar? (i'm not salty nope not me.) also twigbranch the fuck do you mean "it would be wonderful if bramblestar came back" like what he barely let you stay in thunderclan stfg.
fuck, i can't tell whether or not sparkpelt is denying lionblaze and jayfeather as squilf's kits, but they're really ruining my good faith in adoption. or just proving my point that it's not about adoption.
does thunderclan care about shadowsight? what is going on i swear did they forget he killed bramble and is responsible for the entire mess right now?
chapter two
shadowsight you did a bad of course they're not hiding how disappointed they are you did a bad my son
lmao it's the reverse of tawnypelt's clan [3], shadowsight is being kidnapped against his will for the tribe. also please can we go back to the tribe but only if it's good
he listed dovewing next to "clan leader" not "clan leader's mate" which implies dovewing has shc's respect which yes i stan
aww siblings being siblings. i miss that from po3. nothing has captured it as well. well, like, the sight.
chapter three
you know, i think part of why i've struggled so much with this arc is because i just don't like any of the pov characters. i don't dislike any of them but i don't like them.
yeah! tree defending rootspring!!!! fuck. good fathers in warriors.
so rootspring calls lionblaze TC deputy which means squirrelstar [4].
god they go, like, ages without caring whose parent is who and suddenly they're covering it all over again but like, in an adoption bad way, and just, fuck you erin hunter [5].
it's good to see lionblaze does care about her, fuck, can we just get some consistency here. (i mean god rootspring he lost his mom too --- i mean, if anyone should know this, your mom was violetshine, posterchild for bad adoption, who fought w twigbranch over adoptive mother shit)
i want a bernie meme like "i am once again asking for adoption to be treated like a legitmate form of family."
chapter four
wait why the fuck is bris faster than windclan their whole thing is being fast
also that moonkitti video about harestar having no personality[6] is painfully real i know nothing about this man
oh huh we were just talking about windclan camp[7]. this is actually pretty similar to the first ever description, right down to bris wondering how people sleep there (they don't.) well, uh, credit where credit is due, good job for sticking to your guns on windclan sleeps outside.
i love how crow and breeze being difficult is just common knowledge.
oh, so crowfeather gets credit for the three? fucking hell man i'm done.
also fuck you crowfeather for victim blaming i will be making a call out post so help me [8]
okay i'm ngl it feels like bris is crushing on lionblaze. i don't think that's supposed to be a thing [9], it just feels like that.
okay okay okay i'm confused in earlier books the great battle was like a well discussed thing. god, avos had that whole the names of the fallen thing. and now, not even a full generation later, and bris doesn't understand the dark forest? (also who's even in the dark forest?)
(oh wait this book is going to answer that. uh for the record, now, squirrelstar/mtbnsof has been fully plotted and will disregard whatever this book says, unless it's good.)
oh wow i guess we're just throwing out the concept of the moonpool why don't we. really, everything i heavily justified/couched in mtbnsof is happening unironically in canon.
mothwing and willowshine god fucking damn. they're prob my fav mentor/apprentice relationship. mistystar's omen stg.
what is it with everyone and bouncing all the fuck around with squirrelflight? like, okay, i'd get it if they doubted her because yeah, i could make a strong argument about clan morality and her actions [10]. but they're so on and off about it i hate it.
shadowsight.
shadowsight, can you hear me.
you're literally saying, "i could solve this, if i had a solution to the problem."
well ig we know who he takes after.
chapter five
what's up with this "darkest thoughts" bullshit come on you're really going to invalidate ivypool like that?
lionblaze really do be going back and forth. can't blame him he's not used to having a character.
also, i really love jayfeather standing up for alderheart [11].
mothwing wtf how're you getting to hell you don't believe in it. how do you have faith in shit. also please stop trashing shadowsight [12]. that said, she's absolutely right, she would be the ideal cat for the job, considering she has warrior training.
jayfeather what the fuck dude why are you suggesting it. although i'm glad at least he acknowledges his connection to squilf. good job. good job for being the one fucking character.
willowshine. willowshine baby no. don't do it. willowshine. willowshine no. don't do it. baby. no. please. i'm crying please don't do it.
"well, Mothwing, I admire everything about you" holy fucking shit what a line that's a line to inspire so much fic [13].
willow please baby no. please. send kestrelwing or something. puddleshine. anyone but you please baby.
damn okay what is with the connection between mothwing and.
no.
no no no no no.
they're killing willowshine.
why.
she's. baby. please no. she's not read. she's too. no. i can't.
ffs moth please stop dissing shadow like this he doesn't deserve this. (also, unrelated, did, uh, did puddleshine name shadowsight for spiresight, a cat he never met and had no connection with? fuck i forgot what happened there.)
you know, out of the med cats, mothwing and jayfeather are the oldest. it's nice to see that dynamic have weight: when jayfeather speaks, people listen. it's been a while since we've had that role of the med cats in thunderclan.
god willow is dead and i'm going to sob.
chapter six
I FUCKING CALLED IT I HATE EVERYTHING
why did they have kill my baby [14]
when did rootspring get fucking responsible this is worse than when i got responsible
also mothwing i'm so sorry.
fuck.
i didn't cry i was too angry and i cried about it last night because i knew it was coming just.
they didn't have to do her dirty like that.
chapter seven
just, before we begin, still sad about this willowshine bs. give me back my baby.
oh gee bristlefrost i wonder why lionblaze can't talk about his mother being taken away
does this mean they're going to acknowledge adoption again? please let this not be me raising my hopes too soon.
also really with all this lionblaze = deputy stuff...i just want squils [15]
oh lionblaze is back on his bullshit again. like, dude. he was instructed to treat ashfur. he was ordered. jesu maria.
uh. spotfur. what the fuck?
okay, first of all, squilf was chosen as deputy, so yes, she does in fact inherit leadership. that's...that's just wrong.
if you want to complain about lionblaze, sure, i hate it as much as you [16]. but squilf?
yes, yes, please give me ivystar [17]. if i can't have squilfstar (and i don't think i can, hence the existence of mtbnsof [18]), please let me have ivypool. (although mousewhisker? who said that lmfao.)
uh, lionblaze? there are so many better choices. i think bristlefrost would do a better job. (that's not an idea please don't give me bristlestar.)
ayyyyy! graystripe! what a man. what a time.
(graystripe and his gd dramatic entrances.)
also it's good to see elders getting the respect they deserve. (wait what what what the fuck happened to him.)
hehe (mtbnsof spoilers) i'm glad at some level that like, i identified key things that need to happen to make the story interesting and compelling, and they're happening. tbc really is picking up with the good writing. i have a lot of thoughts about this, but mostly, like, these books have changed since when i started them, but i'm happy with where they got. also, lmao i'm dying because like, yeah fuck i don't even know, i can't believe both the worst and best parts of mtbnsof have made it into this. god. what a world.
oh thank god lionblaze is stepping down.
hey, uh...is anyone going to follow up with what graystripe was doing? this is getting sus i can't take another thing i just need to trust someone.
chapter eight
i'm still not over willowshine
i. can people decide if dark forest is punishment or. wasn't lionblaze against sending shadowsight? i can't remember shit i should be taking useful notes i have a memory problem xd
aww dovewing mom.
you know i have a quick q: in skyclan & the stranger, leafstar's kits call her mama. but i don't think we've seen any adult cats say that. what's up w that?
oh dovewing i love you but...nah i just love you
that said, uh, can shadowsight's behavior be treated consistently? i don't know something is just bothering me.
oh yeah icewing exists lmao. forgot about that. can this continue like can shadowclan be the new home for wayward souls? they kind of deserve it after all of the villains they've had. and the earliest books kind of implied shadowclan used to do that.
i really, like, okay. cats like icewing are all "durr hurr dark forest very bad" and then others are like "bruh hell is real?"
uh. nope. i hate this implication that the dark forst is poisonous. very bad very bad very bad.
aww tigerstr being a good dad. breaking the cycle. first one [19].
i really, like, why do cats blame shadowsight? he wanted to go? he wanted to be the one? like, wtf?
urgh who wants to be warriorcatsfandommisandry [20] would praise shadow's rule breaking while victim-blaming squilf for the same behavior.
well, uh, ig i'm glad mothwing secretly cares about shadowsight? like, that's kind of fixing her character. kind of.
chapter nine
wow this post is getting long whoops i mean it is all of my notes on a book. usually i condense em into the good stuff.
lmao shadowsight b like "yeah if i die sorry my dad's gonna kill u luv u thanks for coming >3"
seriously mothwing was definitely the cat to choose considering she could 100% fight. also, like, his body is at risk?
you know, i think mothwing is supposed to be having a jayfeather arc here, but it's crippled by the fact that we're not in her head [21].
how many cats are even in the dark forest wasn't this the whole plot of oots that they're all dead?
also, like, i'm glad mothwing is back to herself. i don't even care about the inconsistency i'm happy to have mothwing back.
seriously it's starting to get to me that the knowledge of the great battle is so inconsistent.
okay i like that we've ditched the "darkest thoughts" thing that was kind of stupid
squirrelflight
(i am crying she's here again fuck)
chapter ten
okay yeah valid gotta maintain that tension (altho fuck you erin hunter [5])
huh. i still kinda hate rootspring for basically no reason ngl
you know, i've never questioned this, but how the fuck does moss ball work? moss doesn't work like that god no no no i can't over think it [22].
you know, forbidden romance might be "overdone" but it's worth pointing out that we very rarely get the perspective of the cats in the forbidden romance
lmao what is it with greystripe? like? is everyone in love with him? i'm not being fair to him just...what?
emotional support wife dovewing [23]
i really wish there was a deeper bond between bris, rootspring, and shadow. i appreciate the viewpoints into different clans, but with no meaningful differences in culture, it's just weird because we're used to po3 and avos and stuff where our leads are really close to each other.
willow
willow baby
you know it's occurred to me i've never vocalized my love for willowshine on this blog before now? xd see i don't actually talk about my favorite characters that much. i talk about dovewing the most out of my top 3 (dovewing, jayfeather, willowshine, in no particular order), but they just kind of feel...too personal? because i have really specific reasons to connect with all of them.
dovewing just happens to be for reasons i'm most able to share >3
willow please don't be corrupted
chapter eleven
please i just want to know squilf is okay
bris u fucking idiot we've established the moonpool is deep. don't you remember literally yesterday?
flametail imagery
"drypaws" what a word. interesting ik leopardstar just avoided water, but here bris can't swim. i don't care i'm just happy for some gd culture
okay i've said it before and i've said it again: i draw the line at cat cpr
wait what is daisy doing? fuck was i supposed to read the novellas first? is this what daisy's kin is about? when did daisy leave? did i miss something? what's going on??
okay can we...like, cats who aren't elders trained in the dark forest. this wasn't even a full generation ago. lionblaze. breezepelt. just...guys.
tigerdove...so cute. i love them [23].
where tf are the sisters they got here so fast
like bruh...i liked the sisters but now they're like, clan on demand ghost summoners? i think? idk clearly i'm missing something very important
emotional support wife dovewing
chapter twelve
i see shadowsight and i don't see squirrelflight and i have a complaint
oh uhhh who's snowtuft again?
also i feel like, i feel like i made my point about it being empty
a light in the mist title drop dodoododod
bruh what is ashfur even
oh series one cat xd yeah that checks
look. if they're not in the allegiances, i don't remember them for shit, okay? my series one memory is excellent, it's just that series one cared about thunderclan, and, like, tallstar
squilf squilf squilf squilf squilf if she's not in this chapter i'm going to scream it is 2am bitch
I AM SCREAMING BITCH
chapter thirteen
the scream lengthens
just give me her
at least i get to spend time with willowshine?
wait mapleshade is still alive? i thought someone killed her oop
also uh yeah how did ashfur amass power like, that bitch is an incel he's done nothing but fail to kill three cats and get murdered and go to heaven
are there even enough dark forest cats for that?
rootspring this is a bad idea don't do this haven't you seen horror movies stop being the white chick
sad ghosts r sad sigh
chapter fourteen
when did warriors get all "oh no can't do multiple chapters of the same narrator in a row" please nobody fucking cares that bris is sad i just want to see squirrelflight
lmao bris like "it's illegal to be atheist" bitch i read code of the clans exactly once i know it's dovestar who tried that and the answer was no.
ah, tree. actually mediating, for once.
god, bris...why is firestar's legacy so large? like, fuck, i know why, i just...
also, tree, she said a nobel and true Clan, not the clan. so like, maybe chill out for a moment [24].
hnnnng family drama also i really like that tree loves his wife very good very good
dfskj okay mothwing missing riverclan would be much more impactful if we actually knew what was going on in riverclan. (like, say, if willowshine was a pov in this arc [25]?) also, you know, riverclan has had so many problems with treating cats badly? god, a shadow in riverclan. wait, like, shouldn't mothwing also remember/reflect on this? wait this would be so much better if we had more pov for this fuck
also fuck off bris about being proud you are so fucking priviledged your forbidded romance drama is as intense as like, idek, the notebook? from someone who lived through, uh, forbidded romance that involved threatening to send someone to conversion camp [26], fuck off
bruh. why is she acting like thunderclan is gone xd you have no idea what it's like for a clan to almost fall apart yeah i stand by my comments on shadow/skyclan.
"what will my place be?" it will be a fucking warrior of thunderclan??? all you've ever wanted???? god she's...look i get it she's like, my age. and lord knows i don't react gracefully to shit. she's stressed, i get it. i do. but also, just, ffs bris. get it together.
"you die in the dark forest, you die in real life" can we meme that?
oooh okay it would be really good to get all three pov cats in the dark forest [27].
also, how long has rootspring been down there? how does this work? what's up with shadowsight? what is anything even? how long has it been?
thank you mothwing for pointing out bristlefrost is extremely unexperienced.
also can i just say, i really like bris' name? like i think bristlefrost is an extremely cute and good name. cute in that it's cute and good in that it conveys her character well.
god i want mothwing pov on this [25].
why is bris so convinced that if she doesn't act, rootspring isn't coming back?
chapter fifteen
wow i had a lot of notes on last chapter huuuh
oh vibe do i finally get squilf
stopping caring about bramble shadow no one fucking cares
seriously when did ashfur get this, uh, good at being a villain?
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
she's
here
fuck i'm crying
poor bb i just. poor baby.
okay. ashfur. let me making something clear.
i do not understand why in the world squilf would ever choose bramble [28]. but you're fucked as a choice.
ffs yellowfang this is why we don't say "his only crime was loving too much"
okay well as much as i'm confused by his power his characterization here is fantastic. i'm really glad we got ashfur back as a villain, you know.
good job squirrelflight. do not take unnecessary blame.
(also please learn to transfer these skills to your pos husband.)
#when you can't get her to love you by killing her husband and dragging her into hell so you think you can make her love you by showing her how you're torturing the souls of her loved ones
you know i had the snowtuft thing spoiled for me i just forgot who snowtuft was so it had 0 impact
damn bramblestar is still alive.
dammit.
people kept calling lionblaze deputy don't do that to me if you're not following through on it ffs
okay not to pimp out my own fic but if you're interested in a squirrelstar au, "may there be no sadness of farewell" is my squils (squirrelstar) au and it does have an imposter arc. so you know. if that's your thing.
hnng my thoughts on bramble [29] aside i can appreciate the drama
ashfur. ashfur. ashfur you fucking idiot you're the one fighting her. also fuuuck i love this character. if i was bookmarking this on ao3 you know it'd get the "hot damn" tag.
huh. uh, wow. good chapter. hot damn. loved it. loved it so much.
hate what it means for my hopes and dreams, but very good. very intense. i approve.
chapter sixteen
eh, wasn't she going to the dark forest? did i forget something?
ohhh dream
huh this is interesting
and cute.
i love the "everything is fine" trope so much tho
does...did no one ever describe ashfur to bris?
you know, i think this is why so many people, me included, go with the we-don't-talk-about-our-villains thing. sure, it makes some bits awkward, but...yeesh
huh. weird chapter. both impactful and kinda meh.
chapter seventeen
you know i'm feeling a lot of things right now, and i might have to just give in and finish this damn thing.
we'll see.
willow willow willow willow willow
sigh ffuuuck she's dead. i'm sad. i'm going to write a fic about her. "under a willow tree" i have plans. it's going to be good.
yeah see okay. i made a joke about warriors needing to make not talking about shit part of the culture and i'm glad they did because it works

dammit rip squilf something something exploring some canon complient stuff.
huh, shadowsight. do you think maybe. being in the dark forest. is bad. do you think. maybe.
bruh shadow way to go call out your own father smh.
mothwing, my dear, you're the one who didn't want to treat him like that. i mean i'm glad you're standing up for him but this kind of makes your whole treatment of him feel like a plot device.
okay, i'm glad that's a formal thing, med cats > leaders, that makes me happy
i really want to know what alderheart is up to.
yeah really why have they waited so long. i mean i forgot about them too but the sisters seem like an obvious choice? since they're here?
(also i'm still really confused by the daisy thing.)
heh i really do need to read squilf's hope. i've been putting it off (i don't want to read cft, but...), but i think it's about time.
rootspring what? okay going to read it now ig
okay okay i'm really glad the sisters are like fuck we're done w y'all cause that's been a long time coming

Wow look, a brain rot concept, who would have guessed any differently from me.
I recently bought Aesprite, and I'm just messing around with the system- but in all honesty I have no idea what I'm doing. Does anybody have any tips?

TAMA NA Comments on the Kian delos Santos Case and the Philippine Drug War by: Airam Limatog
Choosing an outfit for a date, trying to meet deadlines, and figuring out what to do after school – these are what an average 17-year-old thinks of, the simple and mundane things that one does on the daily. He doesn’t think about pleading for his own safety and survival, begging people whom he trusts to not take his life away. Unfortunately, the latter was the case for one young man, who instead of living a normal teenage life, met his early demise in the midst of a botched police operation.
It was a case that awakened the eyes of many Filipinos, leading them to see the abuse of power some people in authority do. It was news so devastating about a young man at the wrong place and at the wrong time, whose life was taken away with no mercy. It is the story of Kian Delos Santos’ murder.
“Tama na po! Tama na po! May test pa ako bukas!” These were possibly Kian’s last words before being shot to death.
Kian was a Grade 11 student, a young person like me who had big dreams for the future. The difference is that his fate turns out to be a tragic one, ending in a devastating kill. It was the night of August 16, 2017; Kian was loitering outside his house when an anti-illegal drugs operation took place in his neighborhood. He went missing for an hour, prompting his family to look for him in police stations. Meanwhile, gunshots could be heard around the area. Chief Inspector Amor Cerillo, together with another officer, reported an alleged shootout that happened near Kian’s home. When they arrived at the site of the shootout, the boy lay ridden to death from gunshots while  holding a pistol of his own and two sachets of drugs in his other hand.
Two very different accounts arose from the situation. The official police report claimed that Kian was acting suspiciously on the scene. He allegedly drew a gun and fired at the police, which forced PO3 Arnel Oares to fatally shoot him out of “self-defense”. During interrogation, Caloocan Police Chief Senior Superintendent Chito Bersaluna admitted that Kian was not part of their drug list, but they believed him to be a mule for local drug dealer Neneng Escopino.
On the other hand, key witnesses showed a completely different view. In their account, Kian was abducted by two unidentified men, tortured, and then shot. One witness even claimed that he saw the men giving Kian a gun, asking him to fire it and flee after. CCTV footage also showed a young man being carried away by officers in plainclothes, matching the witnesses’ stories and the site of the murder. The police insisted that it was not the teen they were dragging, but a police asset instead.
There were numerous discrepancies found in the official report. Delos Santos’ uncle stated that it would have been impossible for Kian to be hiding a gun as he was only wearing boxers at that time. Kian’s father also noted that his son was right-handed, yet the gun was found in his left hand. Forensic results also show that Kian was shot by someone in very close proximity, which contradicts the reports that say that the officer was shooting from a farther distance.
This is where our sense of judgment gets tested. Do we choose to believe the authorities or the people who claimed to have witnessed the incident? One might think that the officers have an advantage seeing as they hold higher power, thus holding bigger influence. The court’s verdict, however, erases the idea of bias within the case. Police officers AO3 Oares, PO1 Jeremiah Pereda, and Jerwin Cruz were found guilty and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole over the murder of Kian delos Santos.
Although the case itself already had a great impact, it was the outcry of the masses that stole the attention. Before the verdict was delivered, I remember seeing the hashtag #JusticeforKian trending for days while others rallied in the streets to fight for his innocence. Public figures expressed their disgust over the incident, condemning the act and the justice system of the country. It gave light to what really was the root cause of Kian’s death: the Philippine Drug War.
President Duterte’s War on Drugs has noble intentions – to cleanse our country from illegal drugs and drug abusers. The downside, however, is how it is being implemented. Like any other war, casualties of both guilty and innocent are expected. It’s a sad fact how we have chosen to resolve our problems in such  manners, which ironically, gave birth to more issues in the country. Extrajudicial killings, like Kian’s case, have become more rampant. So much blood is being shed, and the owners of this blood were not even given any chance to undergo due process.
All of these “one-time, big-time” operations, TokHangs, and other attempts of eradicating illegal drugs in the country are mere ‘band-aid’ solutions. The killings prove that there is something definitely wrong with the way our government is handling the drug situation in the Philippines. Instead of investing in brutish temporary solutions, we must focus on why illegal drugs circulate in the country in the first place: poverty, unemployment, and psychological issues. What good would adding more prisoners in already full jails do when rehabilitation is the least of our penal system’s priorities? What benefit would the drug war bring if it compromises the lives of those uninvolved?
Now, even if Kian delos Santos’ case has been closed, there are still people fighting for justice, not only for Kian, but for the countless victims of the drug war. Vice President Leni Robredo hits the spot as she said, "Ilan na ba iyong Kian na dumaan? Ilan pa ba iyong Kian na mangyayari? Kaya tayo naman, kapag ganito, tingin ko obligasyon natin ipahayag iyong ating pagkamuhi sa ganitong klaseng pangyayari.“
Kian was a simple citizen like the rest of us. He was a teen just like me, and this is what makes it so terrifying. Anyone could be the next victim if this system continues to persist. If we choose to be blind and stay silent about the outcomes of this war, then who knows, maybe the Philippines would become just a splotch of red on the globe.

Suspected ASG member, cohort killed in Zamboanga Sibugay
#PHnews: Suspected ASG member, cohort killed in Zamboanga Sibugay
MANILA – A suspected Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) member and his cohort were killed in a police operation in Zamboanga Sibugay, the Philippine National Police-Special Action Force (PNP-SAF) said on Sunday.
Based on the report submitted to PNP chief Gen. Debold Sinas, acting SAF Director Brig. Gen. Bernabe Balba identified the fatalities as Jomar Aukasa and a certain Buchoy, whose true identity remains unknown.
The two died in an armed confrontation with police commandos from the 5th Special Action Battalion led by Maj. Rodel Silaran, backed by operatives from the Zamboanga Sibugay Police and Regional Mobile Force Battalion in Barangay Sisay, Tungawan, Zamboanga Sibugay at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Balba said Aukasa turned violent as the arresting officers tried to serve the warrant of arrest which eventually resulted in an armed encounter.
Aukasa is the subject of four warrants of arrest for murder, and another arrest order for robbery, he added.
Aukasa, Balba said, is also listed as the fifth most wanted person in the Zamboanga Peninsula region with links to the ASG as facilitator and financier of kidnap for ransom activities.
Balba said the neutralization of Aukasa culminated in eight months of extensive manhunt operation that began on March 17, 2020 under Case Operational Plan or COPLAN “Assassin”.
Police operatives seized a Belgian-made FN (Fabrique National) rifle, a Glock 17 pistol, and assorted ammunition.
Balba said the recovered Glock 17 pistol turned out to be a PNP property issued to PO1 Mohammad Nur Alamia of Tungawan Municipal Police Station that was grabbed by Aukasa when he escaped from police custody in 2018, and was the same gun used in shooting PO3 Rommel dela Cruz as the suspect fled. Fortunately, dela Cruz survived the attack.
Tungawan Municipal Police Station is conducting further investigation into the incident. (PNA)

Echo Javier - Testimonio, Personal Narrative, Reflection Essay, Close Reading, Profiling
Personal Narrative
         My personal experience in my immersion. The first day of my immersion was full of excitement. December 4, 2017. The alarm clock of my phone was ringing (cring cring) I wake up and start to pack up my lunch. I eat my breakfast, I take a bath and etcetera. After that, I go to PNP located at the San Jose, Rodriguez Hiway (to be exact). I entered, and met my co-immersion and wait for a while and Sir. San Jose oriented for us on that time we are all 22 students after we are oriented with Sir San Jose they assigned us to our position. I’m assigned to the PCR, that time I enjoyed the atmosphere of my position but on the second day it changed. December 5, 2017 8 am in the morning my PO3 Ma’am Silva is my adviser. And they have assistant named Sir Psalm taught me how to use a barrel. They assembled his barrel and then after that I followed him to how assemble it properly and then I enjoyed it.
         December 6, 2017 is the third day of my immersion. It was so boring. I started to sleep on the chair and it ended on that situation but after that before I went to my home I learned that I need to be a patient not all of the day is like the other days which are happy. Sometimes, you’ll feel fine . On the 4th day of immersion, I thought this seem like my last day of immersion but I’m wrong I chose to do what I didn’t do when three days passed. I need to move first before I was commanded by my adviser so in early morning I chose to get the dustpan and broom to clean our area and also other area for the cleanliness of our room because in the one room had a wide cubicle so all of that I chose to clean before our advisory come to the restricted area after that I opened the air-con because one of my advisory said to me that before she entered she felt the air conditioner and then I got the format and mop the floor to clean the corner while I wait for my for my advisor.
         The fifth day when we are in the school because of our Christmas party and also for the compilation that we have to pass cause this is the time our works so after that we have to cooperate at the party because some of my classmates said that this is the last time we will spend our time. Our happiness, unity, the last party in grade school so we must continue this party. So we are now meeting about that, they assigned that this group must bring this food tomorrow so our group is assigned to bring some sweet foods for the dessert. After assigned to some meeting they went to immersion but some of us chose to go to each other’s homes some chose to stay so many in school for compilation while I chose to go to my immersion but while we are on the stairs we didn’t know if we are to go in our restricted room in a few minutes we decide to go in our room. We started to do some tasks that we need to do. That day we spent five hours because we came on 12 in the afternoon so my adviser called me to go home with her so me I chose to go in the rooftop to eat dinner.
         January 3, 2018. Some of us are grade 12 – Language so my teacher said to me that in that year we would have a change of schedules. Broadcasting is on Monday, Literature is on Tuesday while Language is on Wednesday. Tomorrow is Wednesday, we don’t have an immersion because of the exams so my immersion would be moved to next Wednesday. January 17, 2018 Testimonio
