Do you have any ideas for who you'll be picking as the povs for bb!changing skies? I know the arc is still super new, but since I know leafstar kicks it in bb!avos, i'm super curious as to if you have any early thoughts as to who might replace her (since someone HAS to - although something tells me that tawny's pov may also be on the chopping block, regardless of her still being alive by that point in better bones (i think? lol))
Leafstar's replacement is VERY easy! Waspstar will almost certainly be taking her roles, and I can already see how perfectly it will work out.
Xey remember her as being fair, above all. Committed to peace, to negotiation, to the ideals of justice and rationality winning out through unwavering generosity. Her first reward was to see SkyClan was driven from their home by Darktail and Sharpclaw's coup. Her second was to eat Juniperclaw's poisoned food.
Leafstar was fatally wrong. And Waspstar adored her.
How can you not? She lived by her ideals and died by them. Principles of modern SkyClan itself; to consider new ways of life, extend hospitality to strangers, and to keep the family together. In a good world, a better world, we could all live by these ideals.
...but Waspstar can see that the lake is not that world. So, xey lead ruthlessly.
As xeir mind starts to slip and the past becomes the present, xey'd see a lot of her. Consequences of xeir leadership catching up to them, it would be impossible to not ask what xey could have done different. If anything could have been different.
Plenty of interesting people for Wasp to remember, too, even beside Leafstar;
Sharpclaw, who betrayed SkyClan with the Kin.
Creekfeather, one of Waspstar's children, who xey had to kill to defend the Clan.
One of Rabbitleap's kittens who died very young.
The daylight warriors who stayed behind, or any cats trapped by humans.
People from xeir life as a kittypet, before xey were rescued from wandering the gorge that cold winter morning. Perhaps even xeir humans.
Again, say it with me; I Don't Rewrite Arcs Until Theyre Done. But. I've got a LOT to work with thanks to Waspy.
(And as for Tawny-- she gets a POV in BB!TNP already, even though she's still alive to the current day. So she's a lot more up in the air... especially considering there's now the possibility the girl POVs get sidelined in canon anyway :/ So I'll have to feel it out.)
