is it just me or am i realizing how warrior cat women aren't allowed to hate. let me try to explain.
Squirrelflight isn't allowed to be written to hate Ashfur. in her novella, it's 'expected' for her to forgive and forget what Ashfur had done to her in the past (Squirrelflights novella is pre:TBC. so all Ashfur did was: Conspire to kill Firestar and threatened her and her kids lives.)
Hollyleaf also seems to have forgiven Ashfur in Starclan??? I don't...
Brightheart and Mistyfoot both aren't allowed to be angry at Bluestar. I believe later on both of them admire how great of a leader she was when she really wasn't-expecially towards Brightheart.
Blossomfall isn't allowed to hate her parents and this plotline is forgotten later on
Quiet Rain, Turtle Tail, and Any women in the Dawn of the Clan ARC, none of them are allowed to be mad. No one was mad at Clearsky.
Sorreltail towards Darkstripe (I forget the details of this.)
Twigbranch and Violetshine.
compare this to men
Dustpelt openly hates Ashfur
Cloudtail was furious at Bluestar
Jayfeather was angry at many things, including his disability *Which Cinderpelt, Briarlight and Brightheart didn't really....get?
Raggedstar was allowed to hate his father and later killed him.
Clearsky.

I'm currently listening to the Squirrelflights Hope audiobook, and all I can think about is how these two need a cat divorce NOW.

these books have always been abysmal at sending off their female characters (looking at sandstorm, we should've mauled the new team for killing her off like that) but man. what a disrespectful way to kill off leafpool.
she's a main character that's been relevant to the main plotline for multiple arc and they choose to have her die, be belittled and humiliated in a trial scene then told she has to "earn her place", and then just decides to stick around. not even in a main line book but in a side book.

Wanted to draw something celebrating Squirrelflight becoming Squirrelstar. I don’t read the books anymore but it’s nice and nostalgic to see a character from my childhood overcome so much and finally become leader like she deserves :]

where's any post that talks about how boring it is that leafpool and squirrelflight got put on trial for literally doing what starclan told them to do? like "follow your heart leafpool" said feathertail i think, "here are these 3 twinkling stars in the sky of your future leafpool, they will bring you great joy but also beware, chaos lurks" said spottedleaf, "squirrelflight you cannot have kits of your own you should take leafpool's and tell everyone they're yours" said yellowfang. like what's the point here?
i know this has been said over and over again but there's no genuine good reason medicine cat's can't have kits? it's not even in the warrior code, and Moth Flight being like "i made that rule to spare you from the pain" ... like the pain of what? like my brother in christ!!! the only reason she suffered is because YOU made the fuckass rule!
and then Moth Flight being like "yeah her kits saved the clan (sort of) but I could have chosen any cats to save the clans (not really chief, i thought the powers weren't even from starclan) we're talking about leafpool breaking MY rule (she literally says it's her own rule) and the warrior code."
it really just makes me furious. thank god yellowfang was a little bit sensible, but where the hell is firestar in all of this? anyway assassinate that cat (Moth Flight)

“Jayfeather, Lionblaze and Hollyleaf never should’ve forgiven Leafpool and Squirrelflight” Well what if I told you Squirrelflight and Leafpool never should’ve forgiven them. Huh. They ruined both of their lives, Squirrelflight should’ve blamed Leafpool’s death on Bramblestar and Jayfeather. Should’ve torn the three a whole new one.

My take for a potential Squirrelstar nine lives ceremony:
Shrewpaw - Friendship
Feathertail - Courage
Dustpelt - Patience
Graystripe - Loyalty
Juniperkit and Dandelionkit (one life between them) - Happiness
Hollyleaf - Forgiveness
Sandstorm - Determination
Firestar - Certainty
Leafpool - Love

My favorite end to Squirrelflight and Bramblestar is him apologizing and her not forgiving him. He is shocked and kinda upset but learns what he’s done to her cannot be whisked away with just a apology. He steps down and gives her space, he can make his peace with a few others maybe try and reach out to Jay or Lion but no one is forced to forgive him.
I know canon would never, if there ever was a real apology shown Squilf would probably be made to apologize back to him for no reason and give up her agency. Anyways just hoping for Squirrelstar 🤞

AU where some of the Dark Forest warriors in the Great Battle choose to fight on the side of the Clans because they
--knew they messed up and want to make up for it
--weren’t ‘evil’ like cats like Tigerstar, but blinded by something that is now gone
--have kin they want to protect
It would have been nice to see the condemned as more three-dimensional. I mean, Starclan was going to condemn Leafpool and Squirrelflight, so there must have been at LEAST one cat in the DF that is actually super chill.
We see some of that in TBC which I really liked, so yay for that

[ID: Text which reads:
“Well,” Brightheart continued, “when a cat has been really evil—not just making a mistake, or maybe breaking the warrior code, but deliberately choosing to set their paws on the path of wickedness—they go to the Dark Forest when they die.”
End ID]
hmmm

what kind of hot bullshit is this
No seriously, Finchlight defended Nightheart's choice to have his name changed literally last book, now she's mad at him for it?
Tumblr media
And why is Sparkpelt now insisting that all Firekin should have a fire-related name when she her mother is Squirrelflight, her brother is Alderheart, & her daughter is Finchlight, who's sitting with her in the same fucking scene?
Tumblr media
Also, why are they all talking as if they're the only descendants of Firestar. Myrtlebloom literally shows up in the very next scene.
Speaking of which...
Tumblr media
Sooo has anyone noticed that everyone who's being a big meanie to Nightheart in this chapter is a molly?
Tumblr media
Breaking news: woman raises good points in argument with man, man seethes
Also, why are they still pretending that Spark neglected him? Throughout TBC there has been no sign that Spark has been anything but a normal mom. In Lost Stars, we even saw her in the nursery suggesting that she does raise her kits.
So, in conclusion, no, Nightheart is meant to be legitimitely oppressed & not just an unreliable narrator. Sparkpelt the neglectful mom is the new canon. The writers are recalling & reediting the TBC books as I speak. And Warrior Cats continues to suck ass.

Au/rewrite where the Erin’s didn’t forget leafpool and squirrelfight had a telepathic connection and they still communicate together even after leaf had passed and she warns squilf of any danger that may be coming to the clans (and also squirrelstar is canon bc I fear for her yay!!!!)
