#tallstar my beloved <3

I would like to hear about your Deadstar au!
and howdy specifically to the other two of you who said yes. thanks for enabling me :3
basis for some of the timeline stuff takes inspiration from @bonefall’s better bones AU, where squirrelflight, leafpool, and crowfeather are full adults by the time of the TNP journey. there are some family tree shuffles, and event additions/changes/shuffles as well.
the point where it diverges from canon is at the windclan massacre. tallstar loses one of his lives in the slaughter, and deadfoot struggles to drag his leader's recovering body across the moor as fast as possible. ashfoot is helping usher cats out of camp as well, and the moor cats flee as far as they can into the night. deadfoot leads his clan to a distant, murky tunnel, and the group then starts to live off rats.
deadfoot waits patiently for some kind of word to reach them about the state of the other clans and their home. maybe bluestar would've found her need for justice spurred, and sent out a patrol to fetch them?
every day, deadfoot watches the horizon, watches as his leader's lives drain away from sickness and starvation as he offers his meals to the cats that need it more, hoping someone will appear over the rise to save the clan.
but they are alone.
finally, tallstar succumbs to the weakness he's subjected himself to in hopes the rest of his beloved clan could thrive. mourning is quick and short-lived; there's no time to honor his memory at the moment. windclan is dying, starving, and ill; and deadfoot must take up the mantle of the forsaken clan immediately. there is no time to waste.
unfortunately, deadfoot lacks the proper rights to fully assume the title of leader; the pilgrimage to the moonstone is unfeasible at this time. their ancestors have turned their backs on them, and refuse to send any guidance. deadstar feels as though his new ‘name’ is an omen in and of itself; it symbolizes the dying nature of his clan. the stars that were once their ancestors are dying, leaving their descendants deserted and forgotten.
some cats want to return to the forest territories, but deadstar and ashfoot forbid it. the cats can’t return back, lest the other clans chase them out again; or even worse, they’ve already colonized their land, and windclan does not have the stench or number to take their moors back.
eventually, though, the cats do decide to look for greener pastures and they vacate the murky, rat-infested tunnels. they settle into some land adjacent to a twolegplace, but it’s… not great. their land back home was far more flourishing and generous to the clan. but it’ll have to do for now.
ashfoot then bears two kits: eaglekit and crowkit. they are some of the healthiest and strongest kits the clan has seen in their time of exile! it must be a sign of good times and fortune, and that starclan is looking down on them once more! the children carry stars in their eyes, glistening like the tears of their clanmates who lost loved ones in shadowclan’s invasion.
as they grow, barkface takes on crowpaw as an apprentice. eaglepaw is apprenticed to (idk man there’s not enough room in my brain for information that’s not my OC but whatevs. also i don’t really remember what other windclan warriors would be alive at this time? my knowledge is rusty, forgive me. anyway it’s probablyyyy onewhisker bc of future things that happen in this AU [insert me rubbing my hands together like an evil little fly]). early on in their their apprenticeship, barkface and deadstar prophesy that the siblings will deliver their clan out of exile. (i’m like. really bad at writing prophesies but i was mostly thinking of michael joncas’ song “on eagle’s wings” bc that was a song my elementary/middle school sang a lot during wednesday mass and also the idiom “as the crow flies”).
so, crowpaw heads out with his sister and eaglepaw to find a new land for their beloved clan; they come across the tribe cats, appreciate their hospitality, and carry on their way. then, over the ridge; they see it: a sparkling lake swathed in heather and oak. excitedly, they pick up the pace on their trek, eagerly exploring the land. the streams are clear and the moors are thick with unfamiliar but homely scents. eaglepaw remarks on the intense fernweh she feels, knowing her brother must share the same sensation.
this is it. their prophesied homeland.
crowpaw stumbles across a bubbling waterfall that cascades gently into a pool of stars and silver; it whispers to him, tickling his ears in foreign yet intriguing tongues. sleeping here with his sister for the night, crowpaw dreams of starclan, an unfamiliar body of cats he’s never known, yet walked beside his entire life.
a gangly black and white tom speaks out from the amorphous mass, introducing himself as tallstar. he’s pleased with crowpaw and eaglepaw’s journey, and relieved that barkface and deadstar heeded starclan’s word despite their moonslong silence. the only thing now is to return to their clan and lead them back here.
and that's exactly what the two siblings do. with two pairs of ears clipping over the horizon, the messiahs are spotted first by young warrior gorsepetal, who has just served his moonlight warrior vigil. he lets out a joyous, earsplitting yowl, quickly rousing deadstar from his sleep as he fears that shadowclan has tracked them down again to finish the job. but instead, the aged harley (my term for an old, non-male or -female cat. fran is my term for a younger one) is tackled by his twin children, who excitedly recount their journey in overlapping enthusiasm.
ashfoot peels her kits off their father, and they finally calm down to announce to the clan their journey and findings in alternating turns. pelts of their clanmates ruffle in excitement, anticipation, and apprehension; some suggest the clowder should head out for their promised land now, while others raise scrutiny about why they should trust the word of two juveniles who've been gone from their clan for several weeks.
eaglepaw jumps to her and her brother's defense. they raise a good point, yes, but why would the pair lie when they sincerely want what's best for their suffering clan? has windclan not been the holiest clan since its founding, traditionally sleeping under the stars? why do they want to reject starclan now when their ancestors have finally reached down to cradle the moor cats in their arms after so many moons of silence?
it's decided. the clan will set out in two days for their star-gifted land.
eaglepaw and crowpaw lead windclan through the mountains and into the land around the lake; the moor cats quickly take up the entire land for themself. the twins are commemorated for their guidance and achievements, and are named eagleflight for being the main navigatoron the journey and crowpond for discovering the moondpond. deadstar finally has a way to claim his 9 lives.
moons of prosper and fortune pass, but suddenly... strange scents float upon the wind one brisk morning. deadstar heads out with a large patrol to investigate, and they come upon a group of a brown tabby, a ginger molly, a brown and gold tortoiseshell, a light silver tabby, and a silver-gray tom. there are stars in the eyes of the ginger cat as deadstar introduces his patrol as cats of windclan. the others say they are brambleclaw and squirrelpaw of thunderclan, tawnypelt of shadowclan, and feathertail and stormfur of riverclan, respectively. deadstar's whiskers twitch with hesitant recognition of the clan names. thoughts still linger in the back of his mind that these cats are here to destroy windclan... but deadstar will give them a chance.
it's been ages. windclan will be fine.
squirrelpaw starts to gab about how she's heard of windclan; a fable of a music clan driven out for being too weak. insulted, deadstar snaps about how could they possibly be weak if the stars guided them here to this bountiful land for them all.
tawnypelt steps forward to quell the storm. she explains that starclan has also guided them here after they met with a badger who called herself midnight.
apprehensive but not inhospitable, deadstar reluctantly guides the travelers back to the central moor camp so the foreigners can rest and eat. they stay for day, and then leave out again towards the mountains.
some weeks later, a horde of mysterious cats suddenly swarms upon their land. they linger on the edges, but brambleclaw, squirrelpaw, tawnypelt, and stormfur are immediately recognized. deadstar and a patrol of various warriors escort the original travelers to their camp to explain what's going on.
stormfur mournfully mumbles how feathertail sacrificed her life to kill this mystical giant cat named sharptooth to save the tribe in the mountains shortly after they'd departed. brambleclaw recounts how twoleg monsters invaded their territories and started capturing cats, with squirrelpaw interjecting how they were poisoning the rivers and tearing their trees right out of the ground. tawnypelt weeps as she tells deadstar how they had to leave everything behind to keep themselves safe.
sympathy is first offered by deadstar, but then his fur bristles with anger as brambleclaw proposes that windclan let the other three clans settle around the lake.
and the black harley snaps.
why should he let them colonize their land that was gifted to them by starclan? sure, they were chased out of their land, but they had a choice to either adapt to their surroundings and lose cats in the process, or leave for a new land.
windclan didn't even get a fucking warning.
why should he let them settle their land, when they didn't even try to find them after their exile?
throwing them out, deadstar speaks of the other three clans' proposition. some cats united under mudclaw, who rejects the idea of the other clans living here. this is their land, and not up for the taking.
onewhisker is open to the idea of the other clans living here alongside them. it's been years; they shouldn't hold a grudge and make children pay for their forebearers' sins.
crowpond and eagleflight find themself at odds. crowpond says they should send these new felines way; they found this land first, and finders keepers. plus, that stupid brown tabby who's apparently the sister of squirrelpaw is starting to claim she found the new holy site, that she's calling the moonpool? when crowpond found the moonpond first?!
eagleflight, always one open to new possibilities... thinks they should give the newcomers a chance. she tells her brother that leafpool means no harm; she just doesn't know better. she's in an unfamiliar land, and the other clans haven't been with windclan for a generation or two; leafpool's probably got so many thoughts swirling around in that pretty little head of hers.
rebellion breaks out; mudclaw and onewhisker both leading their respective sides. deadstar and ashfoot are trying their best to keep their clan united, but onewhisker's forces have teamed up with the rest of the clans to force themselves in.
in the resulting lakewide battle, deadstar loses a life; he sees tallstar, who can't bear to meet his former deputy's gaze. he didn't want it to end up this way. starclan is deliberating what the clans' fate will be. deadstar is sent back to his body, pleading for guidance on what to do.
deadstar wakes up just in time to see mudclaw and onewhisker grappling in shallow waters several paces ahead of him. as mudclaw rises to try and slam onewhisker's head into the water to drown him, onewhisker kicks the brown tabby away with his powerful hindlegs. lightning strikes in sync with the kick, and a dying tree is sent crashing down on the older warrior.
windclan is sent racing back to their camp without their leader, with crowpond trying to help his father limp back to their primary moor camp. in their absence, riverclan, shadowclan, and thunderclan move in.
many of the cats who rebelled with onewhisker are exiled, and they disperse into the other three clans.
a few days later, eagleflight pads into camp, shame and guilt smeared across her face. she pleads for her father's forgiveness, saying she didn't want to hurt or oppose him; she just wanted everyone to get along.
she enters mateship with nightcloud. two months later, breezekit is born. his eyes carry stars that shine like the tears of his forebearers.
four months later, on a border patrol, deadstar swears he sees stars in the eyes of lionpaw, jaypaw, and hollypaw. they sparkle like the tears of their ancestors lost in the great exile.

Using a more simplified designed I swiped from a pic of Dovewing I saw x weeks ago + shiny backgrounds
Cloudstorm is a descendant of Sky Eagle (Skystar). It's semi-canon in the original anyway. The latter is very disappointed w/ Cloud to the present day
Moth Flight changed her name to Moth's Sacred Flight on StarClan's request, setting the precedent that all healers get 3-word names. I have love-hate feelings about her & her super edition; her struggles w/ ADHD are relatable, but I hate the damn ending. She also gets special ear fluffs that she passes down to all of WindClan
Kestrelpelt (Tawnypelt) got her name partially bc she was super fluffy as a kit. Goldenflower assumed she was a longhair as a result. Sike! Her fur's as short as her sisters'.
Rainflower looks like Crookedstorm (Crookedstar) & she's pissy about it Rainflower looks like Crookedstorm (Crookedstar) & she's pissy about it Rainflower looks like Crookedstorm (Crookedstar) & she's pissy about it
Tallgorse (Tallstar) taking his siblings for a walk. That's it
Turtledove (Turtle Tail) was born a kittypet & her owners got her so they could breed her w/ Tom. Instead she fell for Bumblebee (Bumble) the lovable doofus. Tom was not happy
Houndjaw (Houndstar) is light-colored by ShadowClan standards. Yeah
Jay's Wing & Dove's Cry (Dove's Wing) vibe
Mistyfoot is slightly luckier than in canon, in that 2 of her kits survive. Pikepaw & Primrosepaw are named after their paternal grandparents & chill while Perchkit & Peonypaw (Reedwhisker) ship the, w/ other cats from StarClan
Nightwhisper my beloved, why did you disappear after BOTC?

Hi...I just keep thinking of duos, so answer as many or as few of these as you like: Fernsong and Ivypool, Dovewing and Tigerstar II, Ivypool and Dovewing (although I know you've already talked about them), Firestar and Sandstorm, and because my sense of gay self-worth will not let me submit only straight couples, Tallstar and Jake, and Barley and Ravenpaw.
Ooooh! All these are good. I've been saving them for today because I've got enough time to do them all.
Tumblr media
Y'all out there write some really, really cute Fernivy, but tbh? I'm not as passionate about it as it may seem. Fernsong certainly tickles my brain in the right spots with his deal as the first ever stay at home dad, I'm glad Ivypool could find love and happiness in someone else even if it was... questionable to say the least of a story decision to slap her with a mate and kits and call it a day, and I'm a sucker for younger men falling for older, more badass women. But in canon those ideas are all they really have going for them.
(I don't wanna hear anything about their age difference or degree of relatedness. Second cousins once removed is plenty far apart and when accounting for how weirdly cats age it's not at all a creepy or inappropriate age gap. There isn't even any canonical evidence they interacted at all, let alone inappropriately, before he was an adult.)
Tumblr media
I'm reminded I still haven't finished Tigerheart's shadow. cjskjfldknfkd But ANYWAY yeah. They're a good ship, I love them. They are good for each other. My favorite part about it is that Dovewing got to choose her happiness and wrap up her character arc. Tigerdove my beloved. <3
Tumblr media
And here we go for the girlies! They're a tie as second fav precisely because of the conflict in their dynamic and how they perceive the other to have everything they ever wanted. I adore their different reaction to those feelings and their interplay with one another and their everything. I swear one day I'll write more about them, I'm just not the best at angst compared to family fluff. And I find it easier to write 3-way dynamics than just duo dynamics so yeah. There's a reason Holly-Jay-Lion are my go-to.
Tumblr media
Firesand good. Surprisingly well developed relationship for the series tbh. I specially adore them in the Gray/Fire/Sand configuration but as a standalone couple they're good. Sandstorm is the one with the braincells in the relationship and I think that's my favorite part of it.
Tumblr media
OOOOOH! Talljake my adored. Top tier gay ship. Love my angry tall man on a revenge quest and his oblivious short orange companion. If y'all haven't read it, check out @tallstars-rewrite. Excellent take on Tallstar's Revenge. Personally my favorite part is not the Talljake but it's executed very well. That also reminds me I have to read the Solacefruit rewrite hmmmmm.
I think the same card goes for Ravenbarley. In that case no big thoughts (also I've been at this for quite a while already, hahahah). But yeah. Good stuff. Good stuff.
Thanks for the asks, love getting a chance to answer these. <3

I know there are lots of WC books, boy do I know. But put your most faves of the series and rate them - shipping-shiggy.
oh fuck this is HARD
hmmmmmm...... im gonna do this in categories i think, putting under the cut bc this could get long
alright i'll start with super editions, since theyre the most cut and dry i think
crookedstar's promise, it's super good, very emotional, i love crookedstar
tallstar's revenge, very gay, love it
this one's kinda difficult bc i havent read most of the older ones in a long time, so i think my answer would probably change once i've reread them, so... tentatively, im gonna say crowfeather's trial, for the sole reason that i have been a crowfeather fan since i was 10
ok next up im gonna do it by arc, and then after that i'll pick my faves out of those faves
for the prophecies begin:
into the wild, ofc
rising storm
i think a dangerous path and the darkest hour are tied here
honestly, the first arc in general is just rly solid, probably the best in the series (altho not my favorite arc)
now for the new prophecy... disclaimer, i havent read these books in at least 6 years, and i dont remember hardly anything so im going off wiki summaries lmao
starlight (windclan civil war my beloved, oh if only you were better fleshed out and expanded on)
sunset (good bramblehawk content lmao)
moonrise
power of three time
eclipse!! when i was a kid i reread this book over and over bc i thought the battle in the tunnels was just SO fucking cool, and yknow what? i was right
dark river
the sight
omen of the stars
the last hope for the sheer impact it had on me as a kid (also i still cry over firestar's death lmao)
night whispers
the forgotten warrior
dawn of the clans, my favorite arc!
the first battle, it has my favorite line in the series and is just. so good.
a forest divided
path of stars
a vision of shadows
SHATTERED SKY this is in my top 5 of all time, i LOVE how fucking dark it is, i can't get enough, i want more warriors books that are this level of fucked
thunder and shadow
the apprentice's quest
honestly this arc... kinda sucks lmao, it has some high points but overall... nah
the broken code! this is probably my 2nd or 3rd fave arc, i rly liked it
lost stars, incredibly strong start to an arc
the silent thaw, was not bored for even a single page reading this one, which is very rare for warriors
darkness within bc of how dark it is, even in comparison to the rest of this arc; like, that scene where the sisters are trying to summon bramblestar's ghost but instead it's a bunch of ghost cats screaming in agony?? fucking awesome
aaand i can't rly rate the current arc since theres only one book out dnfgdjkfh but i really loved river, i think this arc is gonna be pretty good!
soooo overall rankings! we have:
shattered sky, i could read it again and again, i swear
the first battle
into the wild
and just for funsies here are some of my least favorite books, not rly categorized bc im getting tired of typing<3
yellowfang's secret, leopardstar's honor, squirrelflight's hope, the sun trail (seriously fuck this book), outcast (every time the erins write a traveling book i die a little more inside), the fourth apprentice, river of fire, and the place of no stars

yugioh & warriors for the series questions!
hmmm gonna choose gx for the yugioh if that's okay! If not, i can do dm later!
(using dub names bc thats what i learned first!)
Favourite character: Ohhhh this is hard....i love almost everyone tbh, but I think I'll go with Jim Crocodile Cook! Absolute king, perfect fella.
Funniest character: The Chazz. Manjoume Thunder. Funniest motherfucker alive. So iconic i named my cat after him dskjfkldsjdlks. Close seconds go to Atticus for being....himself, and Aster, who is unintentionally hilarious to me. (affectionate)
Best-looking character: Camula my beloved,,,,love vampire women
3 favourite ships: Hmm..... Jesse/Jaden, Zane/Atticus (and maybe Yusuke?), and Jim/Axel or Jim/Tyranno, i can't decide!
Least favourite character: If i so much as look at Adrian Gecko i will feel Absolute Rage
Least favourite ship: Other than the obvious gross shit of shipping any of the siblings together, I'm gonna say Adrian/Echo. i dont think anyone does ship it but still. She deserved so much better than him
Reason why I watch it: My god it is so insane (affectionate)
Why I started watching it: My partner wanted to watch it with me, so we did!
now for warriors!
Favourite character: Crookedstar, Squirrelflight, and Dovewing are my top three!
Funniest character: Berrynose. Fuckin Berrynose. I don't even feel particularly strongly about him but he cracks me up
Best-looking character: In terms of designs, I tend to like the torties most! They're fun to play around with markings with. If you're asking which one I'd go "Oh my god just LOOK at that pretty kitty!!" about while walking through the forest, I'd go with Leopardstar! I love marbled and rosetted cats, so I'd probably gasp seeing one.
3 favourite ships: CloudBright, DoveBriar, And CrookedWillow. Close seconds for FireSand and SquirrelDaisy!
Least favourite character: Gonna ignore the obvious answers for this one (though I agree with most) and say Shrewclaw from Tallstar's Revenge. Man literally told Tall no one would miss him if he died and then turned around and said "I was only teasing umu"
Least favourite ship: uh. a lot ngl, but lets say BrambleSquirrel atm
Reason why I read it: I mean, I only learn things through osmosis at this point, but even then its like hotel california - you can never leave.
Why I started watching it: 5th grade me saw cat books and went crazy went stupid

I figured you were the older one with the whole Reed telling on Hawkpaw thing. I could FEEL the frustration.
Hawkpaw: "Reedpaw, we need to talk."
Reedpaw: o.o "I'm sorry for putting p8ke teeth in your nest, but Frogpaw said you liked them, please don't hurt me, I'll give you the next rabbits tail my dad gets me!"
Hawkpaw: "What? You put Pike teeth in my nest--never mind about that, though you are fixing it or I'm taking your nest tonight. Stop telling on me! Mistyfoot keeps talking to me about your stupid dreams and Tigerstar and it's annoying."
Reedpaw: "But I didn't tell mom about my dreams or anything recently. Mudfur asked if Oakheart visited me, but he didn't and I said you got that scratch cause I put Pike teeth in your nest cause you took my duck yesterday. What did you tell Mudfur?"
Hawkpaw: *facepaws.*"Next time you cover for me tell me so we don't get our stories mixed up. No wonder Mistyfoot brought up Tigerstar again. Just...go Reed. Skyheart Is looking for you, she's taking you over to Windclan for your Tallstar weekend."
adfj i'm technically a middle cousin. made my older cousin dive into a lake for a necklace once. we were already swimming in the lake she just had to dive down to find it on the bottom. i shall never forget the effort <3
but mostly younger. i adore them (of course i do), but also. there's this terrible age around 13 where like -- they Think they are cool and mature and they are not. they are. cute. ig. but not like -- like the older cousins are gathered around 18-22 and -- there's a few 16+ but that's Pushing It and it's not that i don't love you, it's that i want to not be at risk of getting yelled at if i say fuck.
fldkj; anyway
i loved this. very good.
also pour one out for feathertail who's worried enough as it is...
"You're hurt," Feathertail says. She watches him with concern. "Did something happen? I thought — Leopardstar hasn't said anything." Hawkpaw shifts. He shouldn't have gotten this close to her. "I'm fine," he says. "It was just — an accident with a thorn bush." Her eyes narrow, as she leans down. "Hawkpaw," she says, "these are not from a thorn bush." She licks his shoulder. "A cat did this." "I swear," he says, "it was an accident. That's all." Feathertail steps back, her tail swinging. "You're lying to me." "I'm not," he says. "I promise." She sighs. Her whiskers twitch, and she rocks slightly, as if she can't decide which direction to walk in. "If you — don't want to tell me what happened, that's alright. But don't lie to me, Hawkpaw. I know what claw marks look like." She looks down. "You should see Mudfur." Feathertail turns, not meeting his eyes. He watches her bunt against Mistyfoot. He can't hear what they're saying, but he can imagine it. I'm sorry, Feathertail, he thinks. It's selfish of him to lie, selfish of him to prolong the inevitable. But she glances toward him again, and he can still see the edges of concern on her face. Hawkpaw sinks to the ground. I'm sorry, he thinks again, because the truth would hurt her worse.
(wip)
like babe. pls talk to ur mom about just one (one) thing at one point in time. that is all i ask for.
but like -- hawkpaw is just terrified of this all getting out. he's absolutely certain feathertail will hate him
("It's too late to think about leaving," Tigerstar says. "What would your family think? After what they told you about me?"
Tigerstar said he was lied to. Exaggerations. Emotionality. Asked him how he could take Feathertail's word on anything. Hawkpaw kept silent then, and he'll keep silent now. Nothing good comes from this truth.)
la;kfads ik this ask was about reed but look. misty au my beloved. i will never pass up a chance to talk about the seven. i will make up chances to talk about them. i explained the tawnypelt and feathertail dynamic to a friend it was such a good time. we were talking about abuse dynamics. god.
anyway like. hawkpaw is trying not to like -- freak out his baby cousin. you know the Way You Do. do you? maybe not. when you're like -- if you make something seem too serious they will Know something is up, that you're fudging the truth or lying or trying to hide something more than you told them, and you don't want to get involved with that.

1 thru 10 for the old skool warriors ask thing?
1. what color is scourge’s collar?
Purple, i simply cannot change this. though i like the idea of the front being red from dried blood
2. top 5 the prophecies begin characters
firestar, bluestar, cinderpelt, tallstar, and brightheart
3. should hollyleaf have had a power?
I really like the idea of her NOT having one and the tragic irony of it, but because the Erins didn't plan it it pisses me off so yeah she deserved one. Fucks sake even dovewings power fits her what did they MEAN by "nothing fits her"?
4. millie or silverstream?
millie in oots seems like a karen and a disability mommy who goes "OH IM SO CURSED BY HAVING A CHILD WITH A DISABILITY" meanwhile I just. never got attatched to silverstream! but if you cut out how millie acted in oots I REALLY liked her.
5. favorite forbidden romance
aaauuugughuguh prolly Blueoak. classic i care bluestar SO much. I like blueyellow more as a ship though
6. favorite sss warriors design
all of them slap so hard and are objectively correct but this bitch changed me
Tumblr media
7. realistic or sparkle designs for roleplay?
I think realism is stupid and dumb so I lean more towards sparkle but if you show up to my campaign with a rainbow cat im going to very softly offer something that wouldnt make twolegs catch them and study them. I'll allow it if it was like. "im an ex-kittypet and my twoleg dyed my fur" because thats fucking hilarious and i love concepts like that
8. first deviantart username
goober826- still is :( ive been using that and randomgooberness since I got here
9. favorite crack ship (ex. revengeshipping)
SCOURGE X TIGERSTAR IS SOOOOOO FUNNY TO ME I CANT FUCKING STAND IT. BLAZETHEFIREDRAGONS FLESH MAP INSTILLED SOMETHING IN MY BRAIN WHEN I WAS 13
10. describe your first warriors oc
ANGELSTAR, BELOVED!! I still use her for the campaign I DM today!!! Baby me went "how much can I do to this one runt" and kept that motif in my writing for the rest of time. I love her so much shes so tired StarClan wont let her die
Tumblr media
I kept naming my ocs shit like Angel or Angelstar which is SO funny bc now I'm using Angel as a more normal name than Goob IRL.

Tornear and Gremlin
so bloodclan isn't a thing in my rewrite, at least not in its traditional form, it's all just tigerstar's rogues/tigerclan and gremlin is one of them, but that's not how she and tornear met!
tornear met her when he was just taking a walk by the border closest to the twolegplace that those kittypets and loners used to come from that stayed with windclan for the summer where he bumps into gremlin and her brother, scraps, he immediately is about to defend his territory when he realizes that they both look terribly hungry and beat up, but are both standing their ground and ready to fight, they end up talking instead and gremlin tells tornear about how their housefolks' kit abused them so they ran away to live freely outside, tornear considers briefly taking them to windclan, but decides that a lot of windclan probably would not be in favor of that, especially since windclan was just able to reclaim their territory and were settling down with some amount of peace, and his brother, mudclaw, would ESPECIALLY be against it
he shows them a barn just outside of windclan territory close by that they can stay at and live comfortably and where an old barn cat greets them warmly and takes them in and then tornear goes home
only he comes back
many times, basically over the time from when windclan returns home through the rest of the series lol
he gets to know the two cats, but gets along especially well with gremlin and they eventually confess to each other, but tornear says it wouldn't work because having a mate outside of your clan is against the warrior code and his clan probably wouldn't be especially welcoming to them, but he promises they'll be friends and that he'll love her forever and would do anything to make her happy and comfortable
and then the next week when he comes to visit, neither of them are there and the old barn cat says that a couple other cats visited and gremlin and scraps left with them, saying that maybe they'll be able to finally join a clan so they could see tornear more and be warriors
turns out those cats were from tigerclan and they recruited the siblings
also turns out gremlin is pregnant
the training's hard and fierce and tigerstar and all his rogues and followers are cruel and now it's been over a month since they were able to see tornear and gremlin is getting heavier and heavier
and scraps is getting meaner and meaner
gremlin is terrified of what her brother is becoming and terrified of what's going to happen to her kits, even though she's now heavily pregnant, she's still be made to stand guard and go on patrols and hunt, to prove her strength, she HAS to get back to tornear, if not for her and scraps' sake, but for her and tornear's kits' sakes, she doesn't want their kits growing up in an environment like this, this isn't anything like what tornear described what a clan was like, the exact opposite
the night before the great battle, gremlin manages to slip away while tigerstar's patrol going to fourtrees (she wasn't picked for the patrol), but without scraps, she's brought up how she's not sure she likes tigerclan before and he called her soft and that this was the only way to be part of a clan like tornear and was the only way she and her kits could ever be with tornear again, she finds her way to windclan and before she gets to the camp she's stopped by a yowl behind her, it's a patrol of windclan cats, and from them tornear runs to her, and then is taken aback by how heavily pregnant she is... and her scent
the patrol is confused and tornear finally comes clean about his meetings with the former kittypet, but hadn't seen her in nearly two moons, gremlin tells tornear that the kits she's carrying are his and that she and scraps joined tigerstar so maybe they could be warriors and so they could be together
the patrol does not like that, tallstar silences them and tells gremlin to come into camp with them
gremlin gives more details about what tigerclan is like and what they did to her brother, tallstar orders for a nest to be made for her and tells her that she may stay in windclan for as long as she needed, and then after that they could discuss what to do with her
and then gremlin goes into labor
she has three kits, but one of them, the smallest, is stillborn, gremlin names the she-kit nightkit and tornear names the surviving tom adderkit and they mourn for their lost kit
the next day in the great battle tornear tries to confront scraps, but as soon as scraps doesn't attack tornear, another tigerclan rogue attacks and kills scraps, saying she always knew the former kittypet was too weak and would become a traitor, tornear fights the rogue, ready to kill, but she manages to flee
windclan comes back to camp, both victorious, but also mourning the clanmates they lost, tornear tells gremlin what happened to scraps and gremlin wails in more grief and the two curl together around their kits and mourn together
3 moons later gremlin has become a beloved and accepted member of windclan and chooses to become a warrior once her kits become apprentices
one day gremlin and the kits are in the nursery, the kits playing and gremlin barely staying awake, adderkit goes to fetch the moss ball he and his sister were playing with when suddenly he is stuck by something
it was an adder, an adder that had been able to slither through a small gap in the nursery wall, gremlin yowls in fury and attacks the snake, causing it to lose its grasp on her son, but it immediately strikes back, biting gremlin on the leg and gremlin throwing it off with a jolt
tornear barges into the den to see the adder slithering out the small gap in the den and gremlin slumping down next to her already dead son, the strength already fading from her eyes as tornear yells for barkface
the medicine cat is in the nursery within a couple of heartbeats, but there's nothing that can be done, and in a few breaths gremlin is gone, nightkit shakily walks up to her mother's body and presses herself against her father, muffling her crying mews in his fur

Warriors Tag
Original from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tW2xOJX9Wzo
This was created by butterflyidentity and I thought this was a cool thing. So I decide to put this on tumbler with the blessing from butterflyidentity
1. How did you get into Warriors?
I got into Warriors when I was in middle school and I was looking for a book to read at Walmart. Where I found and brought the book Fire and Ice. I love it but I was confused about well a lot of things, so then I got Into the Wild. And that’s hook on Warriors and I give the Erin's all of my money.
2. Favorite Arc
Here comes the hate because my favorite is Power of Three.  I like the characters and the mystery of the new prophecy. There also a big theme of family that I like during this arc and I find really enjoyable. ^^
3. Favorite Book (excluding mangas, super editions, novellas)
More hate that may come my way because my favorite book is the Last Hope. The like that clan's version of heaven and hell fights with living. Also, Firestar’s and Tigerstar’s character arcs finally come full circle. In fact, a lot of character development come full circle. Which one the reasons I like it. 
4. Favorite Super Edition, Novella, or Manga
Tallstar’s Revenge, mostly because it took me by surprise how good it was. See the thing is when these Super Editions come out I was more looking forward to Bluestar's Prophecy and Crookedstar’s Promise then Tallstar’s one. But when I read I was surprised. I didn’t know that problems that Tallstar had were pretty new to the series and the character was so likable. 
5. Favorite Clan
SKYCLAN! SKYCLAN!
Yeah I know they’re silly and they live so far away from the clans that they barely interact with them. But I don’t care. They’re so different from the clans that I actually like reading their books. And now they actually back into the plot in the new arc. :D
6. Favorite Character
Oh, that’s the hard question. My favorites are Yellowfang, Squirrelflight, Hollyleaf, Sharpclaw, Hawkwing, and Alderheart. Now you might be thinking that’s a weird list of cats. Well let me explain:
Yellowfang like her because I like her backstory and her personally. It was rare back in the day(still) that a mother will go fight against her son that was rotten to the core. What she goes through and still could keep it together was so incepting. And her death was so sad especially after she said she wanted her son to be more like Fireheart. 
As for Squirrelflight she just makes me happy. She also has really nice character development in the series. She went from being an annoying apprentice to one of the best Thunderclan deputies.
Hollyleaf I like for character development. Like the other main characters in Warrior at the time were always the good guys and they don’t do no wrong. Sure Bambleclaw had that arc with his father but it kinda seems out of place. Hollyleaf it’s the character I feel that a ‘grey’ character. Like she really only cares about her clan, family, and the warrior code.
Sharpclaw I like because he’s really good deputy and warrior to his clan. Even if that’s going against his leader but like Firestar, he just wants what best for his clan.
Hawkwing I feel like have really good development from his book. He went from hot-head to a really good clam deputy. It actually both funny and inspiring.
7. Least Favorite Character
Beside villains that you're supposed to hate like Tigerstar and Darktail. But while I don’t hate him, I dislike Ashfur. Just the whole realized that he went mad because Squirrelflight didn’t want to be his mate. And no, Squirrelflight didn’t lead him on. She just wanted to be a friend but Ashfur didn’t want that. So he tries to kill her kits and got into to Starclan because fans were sad by his death. This just rubs me in all the wrong places...
8. Most Aesthetically Pleasing Cat
That depends on how you draw them because there are no official designs. But if we going off what the guide tells us then I like Tawnypelt design, and Ashfur.
9. Favorite Leader
This is easy Leafstar, Bluestar, Tallstar, and Mistystar. Just because I feel like those leaders are really good because they always trying to make the decisions but always second guesses themselves. But they willing to take charge.
10. Favorite Villain
Well you see I like a villain who is either complex or ‘fun’ And really not one of them are really fun or that complex. They try with Tigerstar’s past and Breezepelt’s relationship with his father. But Breezepelt was not hurting his father but his mother and friend. Who he actually like.  And Tigerstar made a really good one in his book, there were these voices in his head and his father left him a very young age. When I heard about I was going billet!  Then we find out later that it was Mapleshade that was doing that to Tigerstar. That was huge disappoint with me.
So I guess the only villain I like is the new one Darktail. He shows a lot of promise of tricking both Shadowclan and Skyclan into trusting him. Hopefully, this villain won’t disappointed.
11. Favorite Medicine Cat
Yellowfang. Her backstory, her character development, and her relationship were work really well. But when in POT and OOTS she a bit of bitch. But overall I like her because of her flaws and her death was one of the saddest one in the series.
12. Overrated Character
I have to say Breezepelt. Just the fandom always making excuses for him for all the bad things he was done.
13. Underrated Character
I think Dovewing. Like if you look at the Warrior fandom she doesn't have much love as Ivypool. Plus I feel she gets a lot of hate for all the wrong reasons. People like her for the woobie. The jersey sister instead of brave cat that spy on the Dark Forest.
14. Favorite Minor Character
Sorreltail and Ferncloud. I like mother characters.
15. Favorite Pairing
Firestar and Sandstorm, and Bramblestar and Squirrelflight. I feel like their relationship was developing more realistic. Then the side characters have hints and then later boom kits, without actually character development.
16. Least Favorite Pairing
Crowfeather and Leafpool. They were to act like teenagers that think they know the true meaning of love but don’t. And it’s no wonder it falls apart like it did.
17. Favorite Friendship
Got to hand to Graystripe and Firestar. They have been through everything together. In fact, I ship sometimes.
18. Favorite Moment
Oh boy, this was a hard question. There are a lot of great moments in the Warrior series. But I think the ending the Sunset was really good. It was like the first really bad ending for a Warrior arc. The Last Hope was actually really good. Everything comes together at the end and the huge epic battle between Starclan, Place of No Stars, and the clans were really good. So yeah, those two are my favorite.
19. Most Tragic Death
Stonefur, Yellowfang, and Hollyleaf. All three deaths I didn’t see coming. All deaths were beloved characters from both story and the fans. All death could be been avoided at one point. Even in case of Hollyleaf and Yellowfang would have to kill Ivypool and Bramblekit would have died. So yeah, those stuck with me.
20. Favorite Battle / Fight Scene
The battle between the Dark Forest vs The Four Clans and Starclan. Great action, drama, and nice set off for some of the characters.
