ships: fireheart/mistyfoot, thornclaw/blossomfall, blackstar/tawnypelt

Ooh some unconventional ones!

FireMisty: Don't ship it

Why don’t you ship it? Never really thought about it, for the most part (and I tend to pair Firestar with toms, but that doesn't preclude straight Firestar ships). Could make for an interesting political marriage situation in a slightly different setting though.

What would have made you like it? If Mistyfoot spent more time with ThunderClan/just had more interaction with Fireheart in general.

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it? I think there's a lot to work with there, since they both had quite complicated relationships with Bluestar. Sure seems like a ship with a lot of fanfic potential, especially if you have events near the end of TPB take slightly different paths. Definitely plenty of room for chemistry between them!

ThornBlossom: It's canon but I wouldn't say that I "ship" it.

Why don’t you ship it? This is a perfect example of how I think of warrior cats pairing up for kit-making without it being a romantic relationship. I think of the ThornBlossom relationship being much more this sort of functional "we'd make some strong kits for the clan, wouldn't we?" thing than a romantic situation. We all know that Thornclaw's one true love is patrols.

What would have made you like it? Perhaps I missed some signal, but I don't feel like POV characters ever note Thornclaw and Blossomfall spending a noteworthy amount of time together or acting a particular way toward each other? Otherwise they're just background characters I don't think much about (aside from making Thornclaw loves patrols jokes). A bit of romantic background subplot would give me something more to work with.

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it? Certainly an interesting pairing if you want to make it romantic. He's much older than her and expresses very traditional/conservative attitudes about a lot of things. Whereas she's lake-born and her mother wasn't even a clan cat originally, so there's plenty of good "opposites attract" potential here. Blossomfall has some "mean girl" energy so maybe the two of them like to shit-talk together? Also the ship name is two different flower parts, which could definitely be fun to play with.

TawnyBlack: Don't ship it (but I think it's very funny)

Why don’t you ship it? Because Blackstar is so, so gay. I could see him making an exception for Tigerstar's kin to make this work, but nah, he's so gay.

What would have made you like it? I don't dislike it on principle. Sort of a political "hold this shit together" marriage between a weak leader and a strong, respected warrior. Basically what Tawny/Rowan is (in my opinion) a better version of.

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it? I do love a pathetic gay man and a tough lady. I think there's plenty that could be done in a fanfic way to have them be in a politically-motivated relationship. Tawnypelt would probably have to drive it, and I imagine there could be some fun drama with her having to find someone else to sire kits for "them" because, as noted, Blackstar is way too gay to make that happen himself.
