"Fire?" Bluestar echoed. "But fire is feared by all the Clans! How can it save us?"

"You do not dance everyday with the fear of living in headlights, the hunted, the deer"
Her slow descent into the fear and paranoia that would eventually envelope her will forever be ingrained into my mind

thinking about the character again (cinderpelt) and it's likely unintentional and a result of either her shifting narrative role from young go getter to wise mentor or a shift in how the books display their own politics but i find something really tragic in-universe in how she develops from a character who will actively and willingly break the warrior code when it conflicts with her own morals (immediately lying to cover for graystripe and silverstream, acting in direct defiance of her leadership to nurse littlecloud and whitethroat back to health) but overtime through her role she gradually grows more god-fearing and pious and embodies somewhat of a "starclan is always right, even when they are cruel, and we need to accept that" position

Another reason I'm fond of CrookedBlue is the idea that its the same general story, with Bluefur giving her kits to RiverClan to become leader, but then her mate gets to become leader in his own clan as well. The two have to interact constantly, whether its negotiations or reporting at a gathering, and all the while they have this HUGE secret between them that could disrupt both of their clans at this point. They still love each other and oh so desperately want to be together but they know they can't and have to keep things professional. For the sake of their kits

very interested in your hc about cats named after the big clans having bad luck 👀
so-! the HC is that some ThunderClan warriors believe that a cats name will influence something about their life- Swiftkit will be fast, Tanglekit will always have a messy pelt, Snowkit will never feel the cold, but some say Snowkit will always be cold, there's a lot of debate and interpretation to it. The 'Ancient names' are Leopard- Lion- and Tiger-, and these names carry great significance and, some say, mystical powers. If a kit is on it's deathbed, in the first few days of life, the mother may use one of these names in the believe the name carries the spirits of the ancient Clans, who will revive her kit. However, these names come with a great risk. Whether it's the ancient spirits coming back to collect, or the ancient power being too much for a small wildcat to handle, driving them mad, each Ancient named kit will have a costly downfall.
Does the name actually cause it? Who knows. Elders will shake their head and say that Tigerstar went mad with 'too much power inside him', it was the Ancient curse that got him, but other cats will argue that the curse is bullshit- Lionheart was only killed by ShadowClan warriors, he had no 'grand downfall', even if he wasn't able to become ThunderClan leader. It depends on whether you believe.
