Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girl found dead in a hidden room.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan xichen#jin guangyao#jiang cheng#wei wuxian#qin su#EDIT: Tumblr published an earlier draft with only half the notes I wrote so: late entry on my JGY thoughts.#Unlike the mystic powers of the stockmarket (what the OG meme is referring to) I think this situation calls for more active investigation.#qin su is such a deeply tragic character to me and I really wish we got a bit more from her.#Love everyone who sent me messages about her after the last time she appeared.#I think she needs a spin off of her being a transmigrator SO badly.#MDZS has so many interesting characters - but it sometimes fails to give them the proper room to really develop past a role in the plot.#That's just the consequence of writing a story like MDZS. Not every character in a book *needs* to have a rich inner life and backstory!#To do so would bog down the story and obliterate any notion of pacing. It's just not possible.#Jin Guangyao (nee Meng Yao) is unfortunately not free from this leeway rule. He is the culprit of this murder mystery plot#and thus NEEDS to encapsulate the themes of the book. And personally he's a 7 out of 10 at best on this front (in the AD).#MDZS is about rumours twisting reality and working towards truth. And about how people & situations are rarely ever black & white#JGY has his motivations. He's well written in regards to his actions making sense for his character.#What started as good traits (drive to succeed & improve his image) became twisted over time (do anything to maintain his image)#and it's a good parallel to WWX! He has the same arc (with different traits)! Bonus points for IGY in that regard.#but man....by the time we confront this guy for murder there's not a lot of grey morality. He's just...deep in the hole *he* dug.#There's a beautiful tragedy to it! More on JGY in later comics - this is getting pretty long already!

This will probably be my last post about Murder Drones ever, but I really do love that the message of the finale is basically just…we should do more cringe things.
Liam Vickers is out here making a silly little robot show with no particularly deep or existential message (which half the fandom was expecting) and is instead smashing his characters together like dolls, making them anime fight with nightcore music in the background, and giving them fucked up to the point of ridiculousness character development/trauma, with the message that this is fun and lighthearted and that we should kill cringe culture and instead do more of what he’s doing.
And honestly? Go off king, that is a GREAT message to spread and a delightful subversion to what everyone was expecting for the finale. We SHOULD spend more time doing cringe things and making fanart and pop culture references and edgy OCs. You’re so correct that not everything needs to be deep or meaningful.
I know a lot of people are going to hate the finale for the lack of story, but honestly this show is just here to have fun and I’m rolling with that. Go be cringe and weird and free.

“the class commentary in saltburn was shit” WHAT CLASS COMMENTARY???? NOT EVERY MOVIE WITH RICH PEOPLE HAS TO OR SHOULD HAVE CLASS COMMENTARY. EMERALD FENNELL KNOWS VERY WELL THAT SHE IS NOT THE RIGHT DIRECTOR FOR A MOVIE ABOUT CLASS COMMENTARY WHICH IS WHY SHE DID NOT WRITE A MOVIE ABOUT CLASS COMMENTARY.

A/N: Wow, someone knew what they wanted! Hopefully I'll do it justice, but this is the completely unedited porn anthology, so we'll see how things develop!
Once again, I remind you all that this operation runs on requests and suggestions! I won't shame you if it's one I don't do, and hey you might get a shoutout if it's one that's particularly juicy 🤤
#########################################
You awoke. Something was in your tent. The dark made it hard to see, but a shape was definitely moving by your knapsack. You took up your sword, probably a badger or something, you'd drive it off and get back to bed. You gave it a tap with the flat of the blade, hoping to scare off whatever it was. Instead of scurrying away, it sat up.
The flap of the tent blew open, and a beam of moonlight illuminated the intruder. She was a purple slime. Clearly she'd seen a woman, and decided that's the form she'd take. Long legs, large breasts, a bit of a belly, and long hair, if you could call it that. You breathed a sigh of relief.
Purple slimes aren't dangerous. In fact, if she was a badger, she'd probably be more of a danger to you. As it was, she just started at you, lumps of hard tac gradually breaking apart in her jelly-like matrix. You don't know what it was precisely. Maybe how her semi-transparent body refracted the moonlight, maybe how the curves of her waist caught your eye, maybe because you'd been on the road for two weeks without a companion, but as you looked at her, and she returned your gaze, you knew what you both wanted.
Your hand dipped into your bag, finding the wax paper wrapped biscuits she'd gotten into and offering her one. She took it from you, absorbing the hard square into herself where it hung in her goo. She placed a cool hand on your wrist and pulled you outside into the moonlit forest where you'd made camp. You stood, hand in hand, staring at one another in the silvery moonlight. You searched her face, trying to divine what she was thinking.
She kissed you.
You kissed back
She slid one hand down your belly, feeling the muscle under your skin, sliding under your waistband to surround your cock. A slippery tendril probed against your lips, seeking to push into your mouth as she massaged your shaft.
You pushed her off you, turning her around and bending her over. Your pants fell from your waist as you stepped up, pressing the head of your cock against the slime-woman's crotch, fingers sinking into her hips as you squeezed. You thrust, the soft ooze giving way for you, enveloping you up to your hilt. A gasp escaped your lips as the cool fluid coated you, massaging your shaft as you picked up speed.
She wasn't just taking it, you felt as her legs started to envelop yours, as her round ass flowed over your skin, coating you in her fluid, stopping you being able to pull out even if you wanted to. The slime slid under your foreskin, probing at your hole as it enveloped your ass and started flowing up towards your chest. Her upper body had lost some definition, material moving towards you, giving you enough to grab and hump into as she pleasured you back.
A feeler probed your asshole, a tiny amount sliding in, then expanding on the other side, easing your tight sphincter open as she toed with you. Deeper she went, sliding in until she found your prostate. Waves of sensation flowed over you as she filled you deeper. Your head started to swim, your heart beat out of your chest. You could feel precum starting to leak out of you as she probed at you, pressure building in your pelvis, travelling up from the base of your cock until you were a throbbing, thrusting mess, hands fully engulfed in the slime they were gripping at, grunting and growling as you fucked her.
One last push on your throbbing gland drove you to your release. Thick ropes of pearly cum shot out of you, suspended in the purple ooze that coated your body. She milked it out of you effortlessly, pulsing and squeezing over your throbbing cock until you were spent.
You sat on the grass, watching as the woman reformed in front of you, lying with her head on your lap, your twitching, flaccid cock still stuck in her comforting slime. You twitched as she played with your tip, cleaning every drop of cum off you.
You lay back, looking up at the stars as she cooed gently. You always love making new friends on the road
####################################
This one took longer than expected, I wonder if you can see where the break is?
Either way, Anon, thanks for the request! Remember, dear reader, if you have any ideas for stories, scenarios, sequels or what ifs, let me know! This series still has 250-something parts to go, so I'm grateful of any inspiration you folks want to send my way 😍

hfdjs. I found that first coloured drawing of baby Alucard in my files and was suddenly compelled to draw a bunch of Aria of Sorrow family doodles. That first drawing was made 10 Apr 2023...(it is 20 Apr 2025 now).
IDs are in the alt but they're going under the cut too with closeups.
Tumblr media
ID: Coloured doodle of a smiling child Adrian Fahrenheit Tepes, in a little sweater vest with a neck bow. He's smiling so wide you can see fangs. Beside him is a doodle of him as a blueish wolf pup, with its tail wagging. Next to Adrian is a poorly drawn Soma staring at nothing, and mentally he is a loading symbol. 'Congratulations! You're a single father' labels the Soma doodle. End ID]
Also. This was definitely inspired by the fic 'Father of Mine' by TheTurtleFromHell.
Tumblr media
[ID: Topdown view of Soma and Adrian sleeping on a couch. Soma's fluffy coat is draped over them like a blanket (it covers Adrian more). They're hugging in their sleep, Adrian tucked into Soma's chest; Adrian has a pained expression, and clutches at Soma's shirt. There's a conversation written next to them:
Soma: Hey, what's wrong?
Adrian: I had a bad dream.
Soma: Want to talk about it?
Adrian: There was a fire...and..you and mother weren't there.
Soma: Then I'll stay here. That way, the dream won't come back. That okay?
Adrian: It is. End ID]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[ID: Part two of the above conversation.
Adrian: I really missed you.
The image switches from the couch to a closeup of Dracula's death. Dracula slumps against Alucard, face unseen, Alucard's sword run bloody through his back. Alucard supports the dying Dracula, face tucked into his shoulder, his one visible eye horrified. He clutches at Dracula's back.
Adrian: I hope this isn't the dream. End ID]
Tumblr media
[ID: Mina and Adrian reading a book together on a couch. Mina's pointing to words on the page with a gentle smile.
Mina: This one is Amaterasu, the sun goddess. There's a famous legend about her and a cave...
Adrian: Mhm!
End ID]
Tumblr media
[ID: 4 panel comic of Mina and Adrian.
Adrian, holding up a paper: Miss Hakuba! I drew this for you!
Mina, enthused: Really?!
The drawing is shown, Adrian's eager expression peeking out behind it.
Mina: Is that me as Sailor Mars?
Adrian: yes!
Mina: It's so good! You must've worked hard, I'm so proud of you! (the word 'proud' is underlined)
Adrian has a sudden look of surprise/alarm, before fat tears trail down his cheeks.
Mina, worried and reaching out: Adrian? What's wrong?
Adrian: I--*hic*--I don't know...
End ID]

Still thinking abt @crystaltoa 's narrative and destiny in bionicle essay and at some point it struck me that oh shit is this why Lesovikk never achieves anything?
Because his destiny was to die, basically, he's technically been retired from the narrative before even entering it. He should by all accounts be the equivalent of a name in the flavor text of a Skyrim history book, just there to give additional context to the culture or language or history of the Matoran Universe. He could leave! He could sit back and watch it all unfold from the safety of his "narratively dead" status. But he doesn't know that, and so he wallows in grief and misery for 90 thousand years as he runs in circles desperately trying to insert himself back into a story that just doesn't respond to his presence. He can't save his team because Destiny says so, he can't return to his Matoran because he technically shouldn't exist anymore, he can't kill Karzhani because he's an actual character with a role to play and he can't just be decommissioned by flavor text.
Even in The Powers That Be, where the influence of the narrative is waning and retired characters are being brought back into the story through the Red Star, his only victory is undone (Idris and Sarda notably do not appear even in mentions in the serial despite them having formed/regained a bond with him previously, implying they have since returned to the Mahri/Voya communities while Lesovikk hasn't for whatever reason) and he remains unable to pursue his goals, at best becoming Velika's scapegoat.
He's like a vengeful yet ineffectual ghost stuck in a house that has moved on without him, repeating old motions in the hopes that he will somehow solve his unfinished business soon.
The Myths and Legacy version's conclusion for him (while I still don't enjoy it personally) does fit this reading. He shows up so suddenly on the Red Star but is it strange? Does it even matter? That's where he should have been to begin with, of course the story would twist and bend itself to accomodate that. While Velika is horrendously cruel about it, revealing Lesovikk's purpose in the narrative exorcises that guilt he's been dragging around for nearly a thousand centuries and gives him solace: he fully detaches himself from Kopaka and Pohatu to join the living dead he has so much more in common with, and finally he realizes that little plot point that he'd been stuck on for so long and is finally at peace. By tearing himself to shreds and blowing up a spaceship but at peace nonetheless.
#bionicle#lesovikk#random talks#mind you i still HATE that ending for him. saddest man in the universe lives miserably and then dies. thats just fuckin mean man#but i will admit it is coherent and fitting with this interpretation of his whole thing#THAT SAID (pulls out fanfic plot im never going to write) YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE WOULD BE NARRATIVELY FITTING#lesovikk interacting with LEWA and the JUNGLE AGORI's part of the powers that be. listen to me#lesovikk stumbles upon these poor guys who are going to get turbostomped by kabrua and his vorox in a hot second likely#velika mind controls lewa (bc ofc) to check on something and takes the opportunity to drop the destiny of death bomb on lesovikk#who responds by driving him out of lewa by TRYING TO KILL HIM. and then (with an agori weapon bc velika stole his fucking sword)--#he and lewa fight tooth and nail to protect the agori#and THIS is the moment lesovikk is completely detached from the Bionicle narrative and inserted in these jungle agori's narrative#he is THEIR hero. part of THEIR legend. lewa has other people to return to and cant stay to protect them but lesovikk doesnt have anything.#hes dead to his native narrative but to this one hes just come alive. he has a chance to enter a new story as a proper character.#and he does. he gives lewa his goodbyes and a message to his last friends. leaves that failed narrative behind. and disappears completely.#metempsychosis is possible only when a soul is at rest but that doesnt mean the body holding it needs to be dead!

Been spending my time lately thinking of a House MD au where, through a series of accidents and lies and a bet he didn't rly intend to win, House ends up as a registered foster parent (he's still addicted to Vicodin and his normal dickish workaholic self but for some reason he cleared the requirements and trust me he's as stunned and mildly concerned as everyone else is).
Through further Shenanigans™, he ends up accidentally getting handed fostership of not one, not two, but three hellish but brilliant kids:
1. This total smartass 16 year old named Robert Chase who yeah he's a bitchy teenaged boy and a former rich kid and Australian with enough mommy and daddy issues to reawaken Freud after his dad dipped and absconded all parental rights and his mom drank herself to death, but he's also got a nice car left over from his rich kid days and an eye for detail and weirdly enough his best friend/mortal enemy (some other teen named Eric Foreman) and his on again off again girlfriend (Allison Cameron, totally won't last if u ask House) both work at the hospital as a candy striper and after school in the cafeteria respectively so House can get all the inside gossip from Chase. Plus Chase has no problems breaking and entering into patient's homes which helps bc since he's not employed by the hospital Cuddy can't complain as far as House is concerned.
2. A 14 year old girl who only answers to Thirteen (House knows he could look her name up in her file but honestly it drives Chase nuts that she won't tell him her real name and that's good enough for him) and who's dad was declared unfit after the death of his wife to Huntington's devastated him. She's a total nightmare, snarky and quick witted and freakishly smart even tho she puts most of those smarts towards things like shaving Chase's entire head (eyebrows included) bc he's trying to grow a sucky teenage mustache, and trying to take House's wallet bc she keeps calling him Old Man and he informed her he's actually only 25 but the stress of fostering has aged him prematurely and she's like 95% sure that's a lie but she wants to check his license and make sure bc everyone lies. She loves tormenting Chase by telling him his best friend and/or his girlfriend is hot and asking if they're single.
And 3. This 6 year old boy named Lawrence Kutner who's weirdly cheerful considering his parents got killed in front of him. He's way too chatty and excellent at puzzles and the only morning person in the entire house and therefore frequently tries to make breakfast (he likes to be helpful and he hasn't burned the place down yet so House doesn't feel the need to stop him). Once he told House he was gonna build a Death Star in the living room and House said lol sure go ahead whatever, only to return home from work to discover Kutner called himself out from school and has a huge wooden frame made of broken furniture in the living room. House rly can't argue since he did say go ahead. Benefits of fostering a 6 year old are 1. The babes love it, 2. Free excuse to leave work early/come in late/not show up at all, and 3. Justification for buying juice boxes and Ritz crackers. The neighbor kid Taub is his go to babysitter bc his mom volunteered him forcibly and Taub is lowkey praying that babysitting Kutner could lead to an in at Princeton Plainsboro once he graduates high-school and finishes medical school (it won't, House doesn't believe in nepotism unless it benefits him).
The adventures of House and his Foster Ducklings mostly revolve around being a Found Family, but do involve frequent plots such as:
House fired his brand new fellows again (he tosses em every three or so months, he hasn't found The Right Team yet) and will sometimes bring his foster kids in, hand em doctors coats, and tell patients that they're just a bunch of medical savants here to consult yes even the 6 year old he's actually Harvard's youngest graduate ever.
House sends the kids to break into a patient's home. They refuse. House tells them the first one to find black mold or lead paint or a dead animal or whatever gets $20. They agree. Chase drops Thirteen and Kutner off at a bus stop across town and drives over himself so he can get an hour and a half head start (ultimate fuck them kids moment, however Thirteen did steal his wallet so guess who's paying for lunch and their taxi ride to the patient's house? Net loss.)
Cuddy demands House does his clinic hours. House sends his foster kids to do his clinic hours for him. Tfw you go to the free walk in clinic for a sore throat and a cough and your doctor is a 6 year old boy who keeps asking for help with spelling whilst filling out your chart.
Wilson babysits them one (1) time since House doesn't trust Chase not to throw a party or sell his foster siblings on eBay if left as the one in charge. He wakes up with a big strip of hair poorly bleached right down the middle. Chase crushed up stolen sleeping pills and mixed them into a juice box, which Kutner 'innocently' offered to Wilson. Thirteen was going to bleach and dye his whole head blue (for practice, she wants to dye her hair but she's certainly not gonna fuck up her own hair until she has the method down) but Wilson woke up pretty quickly due to years of House drugging him. Wilson has not offered to babysit again.
Anyways this is my House Foster Ducklings au which I'm thinking about actually writing. Thank u 🫡

kind of unfortunate that so many fantasy epics are also war novels because i will be honest i just do not like war novels that much... the grand clashing of forces is compelling obviously but it requires characters to talk about so much practical battle strategy and while i can get my brain to comprehend all these fantasy maps and kingdoms and borders and battalions and front lines and army movements it takes up. so much space in the book. feels like i'm fighting a war of my own trying to get through it sometimes
#this is about the witcher books rn but also about book four of the inheritance cycle#roran is hot and i like seeing him with his hammer and his dedication and love for his wife!#also i am here for dragons and it is kind of a major tonal shift watching this man try to navigate becoming a military general!#like i'll learn all the names of the witcher kings and queens and learn where their provinces are and which towns are in which kingdom#and who borders what and where and how all those political machinations work. it's important to the plot.#damn it's a lot of names though#meve is the queen of lyria and rivia is in lyria. this much i know. because she is the only queen.#completely irrelevant information most of the time.#cintra is north of nilfgaard. nilfgaard is south of fucking everything.#cintra is like? middle of the map i think? there are other southern territories that got conquered by nilfgaard before cintra fell#other southern places. um. toussaint. i know this because this location is often referenced in fanfictions about aiden thewitcher#my favorite character that does not actually appear anywhere in canon aiden thewitcher#man i'm thinking about him again... fucking miss him... (<— guy who never met that guy to begin with)#anyway. what other witcher politics do i know. i can keep the wizard politics pretty clear in my mind.#total fucking lie i just realized i've been picturing stregobor instead of vilgefortz all through the last half of blood of elves#whateverrrrrrr i'll figure it out... this is why i can't pick things up this much later. i'm not restarting this reread though#other kings. suddenly all their names are gone. demawend? he is not very important rn i don't think.#vizimir. of. redania? perchance?#yes. because i think he's who dijkstra works for. and phillipa eilhart. i think that's the redania crew.#there's the king who is caught up in. incest. foltest. that's that guy's name. fuck if i know what kingdom. triss worked with him i think#oxenfurt is an independent city-state in my mind i don't think that's actually true though#just reread the story where geralt is delivering a message for the kings that border brokilon but could not tell you for the life of me#which kings and kingdoms those actually are. nor who ciri was supposed to marry there#anyway point is. man. War Novel#lord of the rings counts for this too btw. if i have to calculate the numbers for the armies it is a war novel to me#valentine notes#witcher reread

Open starter: @aurorabaystarter Location: anywhere
Tumblr media
Maybe going for a run at one in the morning wasn't a great idea, but after returning from a visit with his family, Harlan's sleep schedule was completely off. He found himself nodding off at four pm, yet here he was, wide awake at one. Something about the streets was just more peaceful at this time of night. That is until he spots someone else and he can feel his heart drop to his feet. "Fuckin' hell.. Scared the shit out of me." He ran his hands over his face, "just endin' your night?"

My thoughts when watching No Good Nick for the first time
”Oh, I like Jeremy! He just cares about his family, and he’s so hardworking and passionate! He has every reason to be suspicious, and it’s only fair that he’s a bit disgruntled.”
“Wow, this family is NOT close.”
“Aw, Ed makes beautiful art!”
“How sweet of Molly to make Nick feel comfy.”
“Wow, I can see where Jeremy gets his determination and dedication from! Look at Liz go, she’s a beast in the kitchen!”
“Aw, Nick’s flashbacks. :( “
“Wow, Ed’s such a good dad! Trying to make Nick feel at home, gosh I love him! It’s giving Patton Sanders.”
“Aw…Liz. Your wedding ring.”
“Damn, Molly needs new friends.”
”Damn, Molly needs new friends.”
“Wow, Nick is so clever!”
“Damn, this system is really fucked.”
“Aw, Eric and Jeremy are so cute! I’m getting a bit of a vibe from both of them, both together and separate, but I bet that it probably won’t become anything.”
“Is Jeremy autistic? That would explain a bit.”
“Aw man, I don’t like Lisa Haddad, but I Love Josie Totah! Look how pretty she is! 🤩 I haven’t seen her since Jessie!”
“Wow, Jeremy and Eric would be so cute together, but I’m sure it’s just one of those queer coded shows that never actually does anything.”
“Ooh, I really like Will. He’s cute, and he’s perfect for Nick.”
“Get outta here Riley, you’re gonna blow Nick’s cover!”
“Gosh golly gee wilikers, Eric and Jeremy sure are getting quite close!”
“Ugh, Nick, istg you’re digging yourself a deeper hole!”
“Oh no, Will’s a traitor.”
“Roses are red, cacti are prickly, holy shit that escalated quickly.”
“*sobs*”
“Huh, are they-OH MY GOD THANK THE LORD ABOVE JESUS CHRIST THEY FINALLY KISSED OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD YESSSSS.”
“Seriously, why do people hate Jeremy? In all seriousness, I’d be his friend! We can work on his election process together.”
”Aw, Ed. Look at you, helping your son out with something he really cares about. Dad of the year.”
“No! Jeremy’s coming out plan was ruined! But it’s okay, because they accepted him! (Ed missed everything)”
“…I need…I just…I need a couple minutes to just…cry.”
“Wow, time to watch it five more consecutive times! But there’s gonna be more seasons, right? Right? Right? RIGHT?!?”

I can't believe that a week from today, my baby boy will be three years old. Where the hell does the time go? Because it feels like just yesterday he was still growing in my belly and now suddenly he's three?! Anyway, Ender is going through a bit of a shark phase—not like the cute Baby Shark kind of shark phase. I'm talking more like a Jaws kind of shark phase. I take full responsibility since, he wandered into my bedroom when I was watching the movie and since then his obsession has begun. So if anyone wants to come to a Jaws party for a three year old next weekend, put your RSVP in now. @exposedfmstart

brambleclaw and my issues with the new prophecy
i recently finished reading through the new prophecy, and. yikes. it was actively a chore to read a lot of the time, especially in the later books. a LOT of the plots and decisions the authors and characters made were frustrating and just bad. there were things about tnp that i liked, but they were heavily outweighed by my irritation at everything else.
before i go into it, i just want to say that this post will not be going into the tribe of rushing water and the racism and native american stereotypes present there. those are very important issues, which i will be delving into in a separate post.
first of all, i know a lot of people do not enjoy the earlier travelling books and the amount of walking happening in them. honestly, that didn't bother me too much. i felt like they did a decent job of having enough interesting character moments and interactions that i wasn't really paying attention to it.
crowfeather is one of my big issues with tnp. as a character, i think he's interesting and mostly well done, if a bit annoying sometimes. i wish they had explored his motivations a bit more. however, as a part of two separate romances that i either don't care about or actively dislike, i'm not a fan.
crowfeather and feathertail are one of those couples that are honestly just there. i think you can read interesting things into their relationship if you consider feathertail's experiences in a shadow in riverclan, but as they are in tnp they're just kind of boring. they're a device to make us care about each of the characters more, and to make it more tragic when she dies.
they're also there so stormfur can be mad at them and get over it because he has a crush of squirrelflight that comes out of nowhere and immediately disappears a couple chapters in to his pov. for some reason. this is an especially stupid plot that i think is absolutely pointless. it does nothing for his character and makes us dislike him for being mad at feathertail for no reason, and then immediately becomes irrelevant when he meets brook two seconds later. they didn't even have any weird love triangle or even any conflict with brambleclaw and squirrelflight, either.
stormfur and brook are also a couple that just exists so that stormfur has a love interest and a reason to stay with the tribe. she has zero personality besides "cute" and "interested in stormfur" and contributes more to the native american stereotypes (which, again, i will get into in another post). she does become slightly more interesting in the later books, but it would have been nice to see something else in the earlier ones as well.
back to crowfeather, it would have been a fine end to his arc to grieve for feathertail, name himself after her, and have to readjust to clan life. however, leafpool needs her forbidden romance (for some reason. please please please erins can we just have one prominent medicine cat who doesn't have a secret affair? yellowfang was the og and the only one that was fine, it got old immediately after that and just continues to be worse) so she gets shoved together with him. they have literally no chemistry. the only times they interact before getting together leafpool is annoyed by him and has zero romantic feelings of any kind. the only thing even resembling buildup is cinderpelt warning leafpool about him on a couple occasions where she genuinely was not interested in him and/or wasn't even looking for him. then crowfeather confesses to her and she's immediately in love with him?? like what?? their relationship after that isn't even shown on screen at all. the only scene we get of them being together and in a relationship is in leafpool's wish. after the entirety of tnp is already over. it's ridiculous.
one thing that i do think was done well about that situation was leafpool feeling isolated and left out by the couples and romance around her. that was actually interesting and good setup, but i think that would have been much better suited to be taken in a different direction. leafpool could have thought she was in love with crowfeather because of her desire for romance and affection, or that he was her only chance to get any of those things. she might have realized when they left the clans that she doesn't actually want this, or crowfeather might have pressured her into leaving so they wouldn't be found out. that angle would be significantly more interesting than their pointless and boring romance that we don't actually see any of. i also think that in this scenario, leafpool would be aromantic, and might just be sexually attracted to crowfeather and mistaking that for romance.
the other option i see is for leafpool to run away with mothwing instead, or at least have a forbidden romance with her instead of crowfeather. they have so so so so so so so so so much more chemistry, and an actually established relationship with on-screen time together. even if mothwing wouldn't abandon her clan, leafpool might have gone to riverclan and midnight could have come there to get help or warn them about the badgers.
my biggest issue with tnp is brambleclaw. in the earlier books, he's fine. he's a pretty standard protagonist who does pretty standard things, like argue with someone who he thinks is annoying and doubt everything he's ever known because he's in warrior cats and that's what they do to their protagonists. i don't really like the way he treats squirrelflight, but she's usually just as much to blame for their trouble as he is.
however, the moment that hawkfrost is introduced, he becomes unbearable. he doubts squirrelflight's intentions and constantly blames her valid concerns on his dad, when she has never and will never think that he's evil because his dad was evil. he does not listen when she tries to talk to him about hawkfrost like a normal person, and dismisses her attempts to make up or start a conversation about it. once he has decided that their issues are her fault, he becomes incredibly awful to her at every opportunity, taking out his power as a warrior when she's an apprentice and his assigned deputy powers once she becomes a warrior. he constantly harasses her and ashfur, when he is just trying to make sure brambleclaw isn't awful to her every second of every day.
even when hawkfrost is part of mudclaw's coup and mudclaw tells him what hawkfrost's intentions were, even when he literally trains with him under their evil dad, brambleclaw trusts his half-brother he barely knows over his best friend/love interest who he's known literally his whole life and went on a life-changing journey with. he also. trains with his evil dad. when the whole time he's been accusing squirrelflight, baselessly, of thinking he's like his dad. and somehow thinks that it's fine and harmless???????? even when tawnypelt tries to snap him out of it????? he is ridiculous and stupid and downright abusive.
on top of all this, when he and squirrelflight finally make up, he never apologizes. never! not once. they have a whole thing where brambleclaw is like "i'm glad we're so close again that we just know the other so well we don't have to apologize or even talk about our previous mistakes or acknowledge that they happened at all", which is patently stupid and and horrible to squirrelflight, again. no wonder squirrelflight doesn't trust him enough to tell him about leafpool's kits. also the fact that firestar forgives him for almost being influenced into murdering him so quickly is ridiculous. he should not go unpunished for that, let alone be allowed to continue to be deputy!
in conclusion, brambleclaw is stupid and forbidden romances are stupid and the new prophecy is just bad. in a lot of respects. not in all of them, but many.
