she smol <3 ahhh our lovely gal!! she just so she :) my favorite bit about her is how she’s related to like every important shadowclan cat ever lol. Raggedstar’s half-sister, Blackstar’s half-sister, Badgerfang’s half-aunt, Brokenstar’s half-aunt, Rowanclaw’s half-aunt, Russetfur’s half-brother’s half-sister, Yellowfang’s mate’s half-sister, etc. etc. she’s even Dovewing’s half-grandaunt-in-law!
so, BT versus canon her- BT was written BEFORE Exile From ShadowClan and just at the release of Blackfoot’s Reckoning, which means the half-sibling shenanigans was only half-known (as in, Dawn isn’t technically supposed to know she’s Black’s half-sis but oops she does in BT woopsies), and also Exile From ShadowClan retconned her brother (Volewhisper) back to life which is AWESOME and would have made a LOVELY STORY LINE but WE HAD ALREADY WRITTEN BT WELL PAST THAT POINT. (on the plus side we somehow managed to predict ShC!Ashfur being forced to retire to the elders’ den early due to injury/exile). ALSO! EFS gave her BLUE EYES and we had her have AMBER EYES. urgh
anyway she <3 i promise nothing bad happens to her :)
