Did I spend hours going through books to collect different Jayfeather-Leafpool moments to point out how much worse the vigil scene is? Yes, yes I did.
FUUUUUUUUCK Jayfeather.
Bitch literally said "I loved her until I found out she was a liar and abandoned us. BUT WAIT YOU DIDN'T LET ME FINISH. I was also going to say that I forgave her eventually. Also I never could have loved her after the betrayal she committed. But she was a good Clanmate I guess." at her funeral.
He said she "abandoned" them, without mentioning at all that she made sure they would be raised by loving parents that she loved and trusted and only gave them up so that they could be fully accepted by the Clan, nor that she was an active figure in their lives, even if they didn't know her exact relation to them.
Not to mention he straight up lied?? "Hollyleaf died defending her lie" no the fuck she didn't?? Where are you even pulling that bullshit from????

As of ASC it seems like “democratic choice” and “leaders should rule by the sovereignty of the people” is all the rage, but way back in Shattered Sky when poor Cinderheart tried to bring up the idea that maybe ShadowClan had a right to choose their leader without being immediately invaded by a foreign power looking for regime change because they don’t like said leader (who hadn’t actually done anything to them yet, just was from the “wrong” background as an outsider), everyone laughed her off with how sovereignty only comes from StarClan so ShadowClan can’t change leaders, and we’re supposed to disagree with her because Darktail really does turn out to be a horrible leader. 
Jayfeather, meanwhile, encountered the idea of democratic election back in Long Shadows and immediately committed voter fraud by faking the identity of someone eligible in the election so he could cast the deciding vote. Stop the steal!

Mmmmmm thinking about Nine the fox walking around with his two bodyguards (Alpha Grim Sonic and Chaos Sonic) again
The fox and his most devoted halberds who are also possessive bitches
No but like but like I need you to understand
Chaos Sonic who was originally revived to take Sonic's place, to fill the hole in a frienship Nine came to believe as fake, and yet clearly held onto so dearly. Chaos Sonic, who was supposed to be the same as before, except made to be Nine's devoted best friend who would never betray him.
Alpha Grim Sonic who Nine reportedly modeled after the hedgehog he (foolishly) thought of as a friend. A robot copy of Sonic who would not talk back, who would not think, who was only made to serve and protect Nine.
Chaos Sonic, whose time spent with Nine turned programmed allegiance and care into some form of love (obsession and possessiveness)
Alpha Grim Sonic, who was not supposed to think and feel. And yet, with time spent serving Nine and opposing Shadow, he begins to feel and to think (a budding soul forming within his metal frame and existing beyond his programming). A robot created to protect and serve, whose feelings for his creator and master begin to grow over time.
When did his internal drive shift from playing the role of Nine's best friend? When did he begin to resent Sonic for what he did to Nine? When did he begin to want to see Nine happy and safe and accomplished (rather than just simply alive and able to complete his goals)? When did he begin to crave Nine's attention and to make him stop thinking about Sonic?
Wasn't he programmed to be no more than an unfeeling robot, a set of algorithms designed to allow him to fight, protect, serve, and strategize only as needed? Why does he want to hurt Shadow so much (is it really just out of the drive to protect Nine, or is it to make the hedgehog pay?)? He'd follow Nine's orders to the ends of the earth, but why does he worry about Nine when they’re separated? Why has he started to covet Nine's smiles and bouts of happiness? Why does he feel annoyance when Nine converses with Chaos Sonic like he's also not there? Why is he starting to understand why Chaos Sonic resents Sonic, beyond the fact that Chaos Sonic has always fancied replacing him? Alpha Grim Sonic has never wanted to replace the real thing, never understood why Chaos Sonic would, but he's starting to understand jealousy (in the way one begins to feel things they cannot put words to).
Chaos Sonic would tell you it's because he and Nine are best friends. Alpha Grim Sonic would tell you that it's because Nine is his master. Yet, deep down, the two have begun to want to be useful and important to Nine. They want to protect him and see his goals through past any loyalty programming. It does not matter whether such an outcome was inevitable or not (based upon their programming or the holes Nine made them fill in his life), only that they believe that they'd choose this even if Nine tried to let them go.
And Nine... Nine who creates distance between himself and the two robots almost instinctively, as if he's trying not to grow attached (ironic, given the roles he placed the two in, the holes in his life he made them fill after he believed that Sonic had backstabbed him). And yet, just as much as he insists that Alpha Grim Sonic is cold and unfeeling and programmed to serve or that Chaos Sonic is just like that (given the personality programmed into him and his similarities to Sonic) and was programmed to follow orders, he finds himself beginning to value the two as more. He should see them as tools, he tries to think of them as tools. And, yet, over time, the two become irreplaceable agents of his will. He can’t allow himself to believe they really care about them, but he wants them to know that he likes having them around, that no other robot can fill the roles he programmed them for, and no real mobian could be as effective as them (even if it's embarrassing to admit). They become...a comforting presence, especially when he's stuck in the Grim post canon, practically alone, closed off from being able to see Sonic again
Do you get me do you get me?
#sonic prime#sonic the hedgehog#miles nine prower#nine sonic prime#nine the fox#chaos sonic#alpha grim sonic#chanine#nine x alpha Grim sonic#alpha grim sonic x nine#nine x grim sonic#grim sonic x nine#chaos sonic x nine#nine x chaos sonic#crystalbondshipping#crystalbond#For now that's my on the spot Alpha Grim Sonic/Nine ship name#i just be ramblin#Gaaaaah I'm just lowkey obsessed with these relationships that only exist in my head#What's more delicious is that none of these three really know much about love (and Nine and Chaos Sonic barely have a leg up in having some#sort of understanding of best friendship)#So all three of them just have complicated feelings regarding each other. All the robots know is that they want Nine to be happy and healthy#and safe‚ all Nine knows is that he doesn’t want to see them destroyed#‚ and while Nine is coming to terms with wanting those two at his side always‚ the other two know they just want to be beside Nine as long#as they live#And by god the ways Alpha Grim Sonic and Chaos Sonic mirror and foil each other gets me‚ even down to their design differences and the way#Chaos Sonic was intended to be like Sonic‚ while Alpha Grim was intended to be without personality and feeling#Or even just the way that Chaos Sonic and Alpha Grim resent and have a thing for fighting Sonic and Shadow respectively#But just as much as there's fun in Nine embracing his devoted robots (power thruple)‚ there's inherent tragedy in those two being unable to#escape or surpass Nine's memory and feeling for Sonic the Hedgehog

I don't really go here (original Grishaverse books) but I have thoughts on Alina's ending.
To be clear - I liked the change with Alina not losing her powers in destroying The Fold. I am here for her obvious corruption arc in S3, should we get it!
But I can't help but wish it was Nina who brought back Mal. That Alina hadn't used the merzost. I understand why she did- Mal was the one thing she wasn't willing to give up the world for! (Until she did)
But. Hear me out. A source of magic that corrupts the user so they're tempted to use it and eventually end up treading down the evil path?
*yawns* Seen that plot a dozen times in fantasy books.
A braver plot twist would've been to have her start to fail or go 'dark' all on her own, without outside assistance. She's still a Grisha with almost limitless power. How does that play out?
Have her fall prey to her own hubris (she is a living Saint, after all) OR... have her fail at her own goals of rebuilding Ravka - but not through her own choices of using forbidden magic but because of other people's fear of her.
Aleksander's final monologue wasn't without truths. That's the beauty and poisonous allure of his advice, despite everything. He's seen this story before and he doesn't like the ending and he's warning her. That she will be much more vulnerable when he is gone. She's from a feared minority whose last 'all powerful' leader was actively creating the conditions for a civil war. Everyone will be watching her. Even Kaz remarked on it, right before he and the Crows left.
Alina is no longer fighting against an actively hostile enemy inside Ravka. But she'll face scrutiny from a population who is scared of her but also needs her against Fjerda. How does she fight politically against that perception of Grisha but also acts the ultimate state weapon?
She wants to choose a different path than the Darkling. So why have her choose to use merzost? Narratively, that's the easy out.
Why not have Alina, in every good, weighted choice she makes in improving conditions for Grisha, in her careful consideration for using of her power and not scaring the Otkazat'sya - ultimately damn herself, as much as the Darkling did?
Is that too cynical? Maybe.
But this is what it's meant to be a nuclear bomb character- one who is too powerful for the narrative to give a happy ending.
And Alina, whose literal power is cleansing, inconquerable light - deserves to embody it without the external corruption arc.

Heyo, I’m back 💪
Sooo I’m reading POT rn and I just finished Long Shadows and I redrew a scene (SPOILERS) from The Ancients.
The black + white cat is Jagged Lightning and the brown and white (idk) cat with all the demon-I mean kits surrounding her feet is Owl Feather. The kits are (from left to right) Strong Pounce, Running Fox, and Lapping Wave. The kits are Jagged Lightning and Owl Feather’s.
This is the scene where they use to rocks to decode to either stay or go. Jagged chose to stay and Owl chose to go, I drew another draft of this where Owl was giving Jagged the death glare for picking the wrong option but I decided to use this one bc I got to draw ✨kittens✨
Well, that’ll be all from me today
Have a great dayyyyy ♥️♥️

Rewriting “The Power of Three”-Long Shadows (text version)
These are my notes and script for rewriting Long Shadows! (Which in this Rewrite, is Book 3 of Power of Three!) As always, you can listen to the full rewrite here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0G_40Q4A_o 
Long Shadows-
So in this book we’ll need the reveal, Ashfur, and Firestar dying from the fire
Holly*- After spending most of the last book apart from her siblings, the three are going to be spending most of this one together. After Firestar tells them about the prophecy, most of the book is going to be scenes with siblings together and/or chatting with Firestar. It’s going to be fairly clear that Firestar trusts Hollyleaf out of all of them the most. Through subtle favoritism, little gestures. Firestar and Hollyleaf have the most in common, similar personalities, morals/ethics, and Firestar is going to inadvertently spur on Hollyleaf’s ambitions. 
Jay- Jay will be madpants about Firestar’s meddling at first, get a few nice moments with Firestar but then kinda come to the conclusion that Firestar is kind of clueless. (“Maybe heros/adults don’t know everything” kind of theme) Jay’s high empathy but apathy will make for an interesting dynamic between Fire and Jay because Firestar is the opposite. I don’t think these two will see eye to eye on much, but come to a respectful enough understanding as Mentor/student.
Lion- Lion still holds the most secrets, and even though it’s treading old ground, I think Firestar and Lionblaze will have the most hurdles to overcome in their relationship. Much like Firestar’s relationship with Brambleclaw. Lion is also the least *into* the prophecy. He hates his powers and holds a lot of regrets. Firestar’s console will be words of encouragement that Lionblaze isn’t ready to hear, but after Firestar dies, it’s Firestar’s words that help Lionblaze accept his role and bring him comfort.
Start right where we left off. Firestar tells Jaypaw about the prophecy, and that he’s been watching Jay, Holly, and Lion and he thinks they are the cats the prophecy is talking about. At first Jaypaw is relieved by this news, it means he really does belong here, in TC, as a Medicine Cat and not only that, but he’s special. Jaypaw is bitter towards Firestar though for keeping this from him and his siblings.
After Jaypaw gets some time to cool off, Firestar talks to him again and apologizes, vowing to try to help Jay, Holly, and Lion the best he can. Jaypaw reluctantly agrees and they fetch Hollyleaf and Lionblaze to tell them the truth. Firestar decides to start personally mentoring the 3 in order to help them, though it has to remain a secret.
With Firestar’s mentorship, the three become closer again. Things really seem to be looking up for them. A few more months go by, Hollyleaf gets an apprentice, Lionblaze is sure his power is only good for hurting cats, so he stays away from conflict as much as possible, and Jaypaw gets his Medicine Cat name, Jayfeather. Firestar talks to Hollyleaf alone and expresses concern for her brothers, telling her to do her best to keep them on the straight and narrow.
Then the infamous fire scene happens. It’s basically the same but now we’re gonna do some good old Mentor death, cause Firestar is gonna get mortally wounded here trying to help his clanmates escape. Jay, Holly, and Lion stay back with Firestar, but Firestar eventually convinces them to escape. They get caught in the fire and Squirrelflight jumps in to try to help and Ashfur intervenes. Ashfur tries to get the three killed to hurt Squirrelflight, so she reveals the truth. Ashfur says he doesn’t care, this will still hurt Squirrelflight, when Jayfeather blurts out that Firestar is dead. This shocks both Ashfur and Squirrelflight and the fight stops. Ashfur backs down, saying losing Firestar is only the beginning of his revenge on Squirrelflight.

Script:
We start right where we left off. Firestar tells Jaypaw about the prophecy, and that he’s been watching Jay, Holly, and Lion and he thinks they are the cats the prophecy is talking about. At first Jaypaw is relieved by this news, it means he really does belong here, in ThunderClan, as a Medicine Cat and not only that, but he’s special. Jaypaw is bitter towards Firestar though for keeping this from him and his siblings.
After Jaypaw gets some time to cool off, Firestar talks to him again and apologizes, vowing to try to help Jay, Holly, and Lion the best he can. Jaypaw reluctantly agrees and they fetch Hollyleaf and Lionblaze to tell them the truth as well. Firestar decides to start personally mentoring the 3 in order to help them, though it has to remain a secret.
With Firestar’s mentorship, the three become closer again. Jaypaw comes clean about his power to feel clanmates' emotions, and Lionblaze realizes that his power must have to do with his fighting abilities, though he has doubts about this because he feels a lot of those abilities came from training in the Dark Forest. Hollyleaf concludes that her power must have to do leadership. Firestar doesn’t know what to make of these abilities, but tells them to keep an eye out for messages from StarClan. Overall things really seem to be looking up for them. 
A few more months go by, Hollyleaf gets an apprentice, Rosepaw, and takes to her position as a mentor quickly. It’s still pretty common to see Hollyleaf thinking about satisfying those ambitions she had in book 1. She still wants glory and recognition and so far, despite her inner thoughts being a bit selfish and her compassion a bit questionable, especially after Hollyleaf catches Rosepaw breaking some minor Warrior Code rules, Hollyleaf seems like a good person overall who’s heart is in the right place at least. 
Lionblaze is sure his power is only good for hurting cats, so he stays away from conflict as much as possible, he begins reforming his relationships with the apprentices he had grown up with. Honeyfern, Mousewhisker and Hazeltail all forgive Lionblaze pretty quickly, but Cinderheart and Poppyfrost take a little longer to come around, though they do eventually. Berrynose and Lionblaze never become real friends, so to speak, but they do form a healthy rivalry with each other that sort of doubles as a bit of an estranged bromance. 
Jaypaw gets his Medicine Cat name, Jayfeather, from Leafpool and starts getting dreams from StarClan filled with smoke and he can’t see in the dreams. He calls out to his family but can never find them. Jayfeather tells Leafpool about these dreams but she’s not sure that they aren’t just nightmares. Jayfeather is convinced it’s a warning from StarClan about something, but doesn't know what it could be.
After mentoring Jay, Lion, and Holly again, Firestar talks to Hollyleaf alone and expresses concern for her brothers, telling her to do her best to keep them on the straight and narrow. Firestar trusts Hollyleaf’s power more than Lionblaze and Jayfeather’s, to do good for ThunderClan, and overall feels a kinship with Hollyleaf due to their similar interests in helping clanmates and leading. Hollyleaf gives Rosepaw her warrior assessment and Firestar is proud of Hollyleaf’s skill at mentoring.
Then the infamous fire scene happens. It’s basically the same but now we’re gonna do some good old fashioned Mentor death, cause Firestar is gonna get mortally wounded here trying to help his clanmates escape. Jayfeather, Hollyleaf, and Lionblaze stay back with Firestar, but Firestar eventually convinces them to escape before he dies. As a fun little bonus here for people paying attention and a little foreshadowing: Hollyleaf nearly dies multiple times during this scene, but ends up narrowly escaping due to Lionblaze and Jayfeather’s help. They get caught in the fire and Squirrelflight jumps in to try to help and Ashfur intervenes. Ashfur tries to get the three killed to hurt Squirrelflight, so she reveals the truth that Jay, Holly, and Lion aren’t actually her kits. Ashfur says he doesn’t care, this will still hurt Squirrelflight, and that’s when Jayfeather blurts out that Firestar is dead. This shocks both Ashfur and Squirrelflight and the fight stops. Ashfur backs down, saying losing Firestar is only the beginning of his revenge on Squirrelflight.
The book ends in much the same way, with the three freaking out over not knowing their biological parents, wondering how that affects the prophecy, and then Ashfur turning up dead by the end of the book. Firestar is also dead, so yeah, now we get Bramblestar.
At the end of this book, we get an epilogue with Leafpool, very similar to the prologue that begins Sunset, with her finding the fur in Ashfur’s claws and from that knowing who the true killer might be.
