as a victim of grooming, i think the fandom needs to stop ignoring and pretending spottedleaf's heart didn't exist. it did. it makes her mean so much to me as a character, and to discard that element of her character makes me feel... weird..?? why do you want thistleclaw to stay evil in a Good Way? why are we ignoring this bit of his character just because its "icky". idk, it feels like im the only one that feels positively towards it somewhat.
