A warrior cats character being able to win a tournament surrounding misogyny is fairly unsurprising. But it was probably even more surprising because the character was from a pretty under talked about arc.

Yes Bumble. I am talking about Bumble. Bumble may be a cat just like all the other mollies but she is still a victim of writer's misogyny.

Bumble's death will forever be horrifying to me. Not just because of the story narrative but because of how real it is...

It isn't really too well talked about how some victims of abuse end up dying to their abusers or as a result of not being taken seriously.

Gray Wing and Clear Sky suck.

Tom fucking sucks.

Hi there! If it's alright, can I request a fusionkit for Bumble and Turtletail, if you're okay with it? If not thats perfectly fine!

so cutie

Bumble from dotc/dawn of the clan. Yes that female kittypet cat who gets wronged by tom, graywing, turtletail, clearsky, almost everyone (except the innocent ones like misty, etc).

Ik who she is! Poor lady :(

Leafpool guilting squirrelflight to take her kids is GOOD it's drama it's interesting. it shows a side of their relationship maybe never talked about and its tasty tasty drama, but instead it's used by people to claim leafpool isnt a victim of her faith or society like no bitch she wouldnt be doing that if she was in a safe place with people she could trust

this goes doubly for squilf not revealing her kittens parentage to bramble. like why did she do that, why Would she do that and what does the text show us which might point to her not trusting brambleclaw

bluestar naming brightheart goes the same way, bumble blaming turtletail for her misery, etc etc. No one is a good person for these actions but they text is richer for these things, we shouldn't be striving for a book where everyone acts rationally

the text fails with this when the books dont give us a nice outcome for these. we dont get a scene of brightheart talking about her feelings of the late leader, how she might resent her or even has less/more faith in firestar because of her actions. We get a half hearted "noo brambleclaw i did trust you i just had a women moment" for squilfs conflict, and turtle tail was shafted.

i think i just really want to know brighthearts feelings on bluestar so deeply. if erins did write that itd probably go "ohh i forgive bluestar.. its ok .. .we all do ableisms when we're stressed" though so like maybe its better if we dont. hell on earth

bumble and turtletail were dating for sure

I totally agree with the TurtleTail stuff. I would have literally taken TurtleTail trying to speak up in Bumble's defense but get shut down quickly. Because at least in that situation she would have TRIED to help aid Bumble. I wish that part was handled better, her "apology" to Bumble is so weird and is written in a way that still tries to blame Bumble for... whatever reason. It sucks, I genuinely like their friendship in the beginning and both TurtleTail and Bumble suffer from the shit ass writing in DoTC (Just as every other character does but specifically the female characters). When Bumble apologized to TurtleTail (while Bumble was dying by the way), TurtleTail should have told her she didn't need to apologize for anything. Then TurtleTail profusely apologizes to her. None of this "Yeeaaahh... I'm sorry I guess but you couldn't live with us because you're lazy" bullshit we got in the books. Imagine the sheer impact and emotion the Erins could have put into that scene, imagine if Bumble's exile haunted TurtleTail's mind, and when she finally got the chance to apologize, Bumble was already on her way to death's door. Imagine if TurtleTail was the only cat who wanted to or gave a proper burial to her dear friend. Sorry for the rambling, I'm super passionate about TurtleTail and Bumble's relationship it hurts

Turtle Tail and Bumble BROKE THEIR BACKS holding up the entire Sun Trail book, they're like the only enjoyable part of the goddamn thing and then the Erins DID THIS

And it hurts because Turtle's pivot is out of nowhere. They're friends in Sun Trail! She KNOWS that Tom is a horrible person! Bumble didn't want to tell the secret because HE told her not to! What reason does she have to be like this?!

Do you notice that 'apologies' in warriors are almost always written as two-way, instead of the person who did wrong solely apologizing? A la Bramble's "WE should never have let it get this bad?" Constantly, cats who did nothing wrong are written as saying something like, "I shouldn't have been mad at you" or something.

Like it's equally bad to be upset about being mistreated as it is to mistreat someone

I'm not sure if it's possible to save the Bumble death without dragging the likeability of a bunch of characters down with it. The sheer amount of cruelty behind turning away a domestic abuse survivor because she's too 'lazy and useless' cannot go unaddressed somehow, either as a commentary on the Moor Group, Clear Sky's infectious mindset, or an inquiry to the morality of every character involved.

It could be a good sort of angst idea for Turtle to be trying to keep her fed in her exile, between caring for her kits and still trying to hunt for her AND the Moor Cats, but honestly, I crave a more meaty, substantial fix

We need more Bumble; she deserved better than the books and man do I wish she lived a happy life, or afrerlife.

TurtleTail doesn't realize she has no romantic interest in men
