Eugh there's something missing in the Fallen Leaves/Sol plot line. Something to give it more oomph. I think there needs to be a stronger bridge connecting Leaves to Sol. They feel like two entirely different characters when there just two different expressions of the same cat.
Maybe I could make Leaves more malevolent from the get-go. Maybe he encourages cats into the tunnels to drown them and the only reason he doesn't manage to kill Jay is because of Jay's powers. Jay, unaware of this, is later helped by Leaves and tricked into freeing him. Rock, has been there trying to convince Jay to not do that, but Jay's hatred for authority figures telling him what he should or should not do bites him in the ass.
I could also make Sol more emotionally manipulative. Less charismatic guy playing 4d chess (but not really cause everyone else is just dumb) vibes, more person who lets you cry on his shoulder then takes advantage of your vulnerability vibes. Maybe he initially gains Shadowclan's trust via spying on Thunderclan.
Maybe I won't kill Hollyleaf. Maybe instead of them growing together, Holly is forced to spend time around this furious, unforgiving, vengeful spirit and at some point is like "damn... is that what I sounded like?"
