now hold on. I'm currently watching episode 14 season 14 of supernatural. so this episode, they're hunting a demigod that can see the future right? fine. normal episode. but this is what is really getting to my head. so dean and cas are at the scene of the crime. after the trucker was killed. the demigod left a note for dean that says that he looked into the future or whatever and saw him standing alone reading the note at the truck. cas asks why he didn't talk about him in the note. dean answers "maybe you're not his type."
okay, fine. totally normal response. except for the fact that literally the scene before entails the demigod essentially tricking this trucker into thinking that for a ride he'll do "anything" (anything being sex)
now with that context, WHAT THE FUCK COULD HE POSSIBLY MEAN BY THAT?? that cas isn't gay? which, for one, yes he is. but that's not the point. if that's what he means, that implies that dean thinks that he IS this demigods type. and how did the demigod lure the trucker? gay sex. thank you for coming to my ted talk.
AND! you want to know who else he kisses in this episode? CAS. so apparently he IS his type.

Stormclan is pretty cool, I’m glad they are a direct result of the clans and not Rouge Group 255674385 that pops up like Minecraft mobs at night
Didn’t ivypool kill beetlewhisker? Will they remember it
The mental image of playing minecraft and Darktail spawns on your roof like a spider, refusing to leave in the daylight and making annoying chittering noises, is magical thank you.
Anyway nah, that was Brokenstar. Ivypool killed Antpelt, not Beetlewhisker. I have doubts they're going to remember that though, and if they do, it'll be one of those "don't worry guys we TOTALLY remember the events in our series!" throwaway lines we've been getting recently. The type that's thought in her head or thrown out in passing, but doesn't significantly contribute to Ivypool's emotional struggle.
I think Ivypool's actually the part of this SE that I'm most apprehensive about, funny enough. StormClan's got me pretty excited, but my hopes kinda started falling when I found out Dovewing was going on the road trip. I do not like the story that the Erins tell between the sisters, and I feel like they keep getting forced together to "reconcile their differences" when it would make a MUCH more effective story for the two of them to not do that.
See, what I like about Ivypool is that she's grudge-holding and spiteful. I LIKE that she tried to leverage her sisterhood with Dovewing in ASC to try and make her manipulate her husband. I find the fact she tried to sabotage SkyClan's chances at the lake back in AVoS to halt Dovewing and Tigerheart's relationship, slighting her apprentice in the process, to be COMPELLING.
I ENJOY reading about Ivypool being nasty. Both a victim of the Dark Forest who was targeted because she felt alienated, and yet, someone who has found a way to use Clan culture's most unfair aspects to her advantage. She'll NEVER see herself as the bully she actually is, because in her eyes, she's permanently the underdog.
so... I just have absolutely no desire to see Dovewing and Ivypool be "close."
Every time it happens on the page, it feels like it's Dovewing desperately wanting her sister to not treat her poorly, or believe in her, or just stop actively sabotaging her life. Then, Ivypool realizes this after a while and displays emotional intelligence that feels unfitting for her character, and apologizes.
It feels forced.
Like it's just happening because the authors know the fans want it, and not actually what these two characters would do. You get me?
I don't want to see them reconnect. I want more bittersweet examples in WC where family members have irreconcilable differences, but now and then, there's that little twinge of love, that old spark that you pray, THIS time, could become a fire... but it doesn't. There's just nothing left to burn.
TL;DR I'm feeling overall meh about Ivypool's Heart but looking forward to seeing what StormClan's all about.

Just cried a little about Steve’s and Dustin’s friendship and how it’s so well written and beautiful. The two least expected people teaming up with each other and it develops into a friendship, or a brotherly bond even as they get to know each other.
The scene where Steve shields Dustin with his body when the demodogs are running at them or Dustin’s ”If you die, I die” speech are just, so important to me.
I love them with my whole heart and I really really hope they get to have their happy ending that they so desperately deserve. <3
