the feather issue

*you can enjoy something while still acknowledging that it has unfavourable and offensive elements. just take them into account.

they shouldve enhanced all five of dovewing's senses. i want her to bite into a squirrel and be like "oh my god did you know this squirrel ate an ant that was on its acorn and that ant took a nibble of leopardstar's rotting corpse because i thought that was interesting" because she thinks it's normal and everyone is starign at her like she's insane. bc she is

rosepetal sneezes while on patrol and dovewing goes "you shouldve seen jayfeather after you touched that weird puddle" and rosepetal goes "?? i never told you that" and shes like "oh yeah but i brushed my tail against you by accident once a few days ago and i felt the water molecules on your paw sorry lol!!!" and no one talks to her for the rest of the patrol but she doesn't realize she's freaking anyone out

oh my fucking god ashfur/impostorstar tried to lure sparkpelt to her death the same way Tigerstar The First lured brindleface to her death

nightheart had the potential to be like a good character that didn’t bend the (majority) female characters around him into “unreasonable awful people who are just so mean to him” and give him an arc that’s been done 50 times. Like he’s a guy who has failed his assessment TWO TIMES! He refused a name his leader gave him in favour of one that better suited him and that is unprecedented in warriors society.

He could have had a nice arc in which he is defined by being out of the norm and being true to himself and who he is. Like, maybe, after failing his assessment two times he could have realized the current way of things doesn’t suit him and instead find a different way to learn things, he could have decided on his own name, once again rivalling the norm of warriors society. It would have fit well with the current arc of the traditional ways of the clans Changing. It could have been a more personalized, smaller scale story to compliment this big worldly change for them. Nightheart being different and feeling isolated would have worked had they not Done What They Did, it could have been something his clanmates had to have learned to embrace. Hell, you could still add in the minor conflict with Sparkpelt and Finchlight but instead make Nightheart an unreliable narrator who learned to accept THEIR point of view just as his clan would have had to accept his, not demonized Sparkpelt for something that was never in her control.

A shadowsight piece that I planned out, but I don’t think I’m going to finish it.

Been feeling like absolute dog shit. My therapist recommended writing down positive things but I wanted to throw my own artistic spin on it with my favorite warrior cats.
