#while puddle is one thread away from losing his sanity because people are dying under him and the leaders are just watching

[yuridovewing]

There was a bit when Alderpaw was about to get his full name where he was anxious about Puddleshine not being there (because at that point, the Kin was forcing him to be their medic) and he was like "but I want Puddleshine to be here at this really important moment for me :(" and I know im grasping at straws here but.... gay

#also i think i forgot to mention this but i also really like puddleshine so far. hes another unwilling medic sure #but its actually interesting this time bc its not for ableist reasons or plot or anything #its directly connected to the rebellious apprentice plot so ofc puddle wouldnt want it #and hes put in a really horrible position where he has to learn EVERYTHING in two months only and then he immediately gets an outbreak #he almost watches his own mom die and his siblings are implied to be kinda distant from him #and hes like. a teenager. #damn it why cant the story be about him #also itd be nice if he and alderpaw actually got to bond in this book #like during all the gathering chapters w alder he gets talking with puddle and idk share experiences #itd be kinda funny bc alder is like ''man :/ idk my sister makes me feel bad'' #while puddle is one thread away from losing his sanity because people are dying under him and the leaders are just watching #anyways yeah ik this line isnt really gay bc obviously but also he follows it up with ''man he got his name before me'' #which kinda implies its more of a ''wow i gotta prove myself to this guy'' thing more than ''i want my friend here'' #actually it certainly is that bc they didnt really interact in the book much at all #avos liveread
