one time i saw someone try to say "um actually squirrelflight IS just as bad as brambleclaw in tnp bc shes constantly trying to tear him away from his only friend" like um......are u forgetting who that "friend" is. are u forgetting that one of hawkfrosts main character traits is that hes manipulative. are u forgetting that hes literally training w bramble and their dead evil father who bramble expressed his hatred for in the previous arc. like. if my partner was being manipulated by someone who i KNOW from personal experience is an asshole w a suspicious history (see: leafpools experience w him, mistyfoot expressing her own suspicions abt him, him ADMITTING to being part of mudclaws coup), i dont think it would be abusive or controlling of me to say "dude stop hanging out w this guy hes evil as shit"

Uhhh Hi for the oc thing maybe? (sorry for so many words)
Here's your Taiga!
i like to think if the books were well written dovewing would recognize sunbeam is in a similar situation she was in with bumblestripe (a tom chasing after her for her affections when it's unrequited on sunbeam's part- at least for now from the excerpt) and have a talk to her about what she wants out of this situation, does she need tigerstar and cloverfoot to step in and send nightheart home, how long has nightheart been claiming to be her mate, etc. like maybe it's too early to say its wishful thinking when the book isn't out yet but god i hope at least ONE cat noticed how uncomfortable sunbeam was with him and asks if she's okay with what's going on and dovewing would be one of the best canidates for that.
fireheart calm down it’s part of cinderpaw’s training

Edgy oc named Ice. Design can be simplified (still a little older than hope)
i also think the fandom underplays how dovewing and bumblestripe’s relationship has… always been kind of bad. like people only ever bring up the funeral scene but their entire relationship is founded on dovewing being harassed and harangued by clanmates into choosing a thunderclan mate, bumblestripe specifically because he likes her and is therefore entitled to her attention and commitment
bumblestripe: sorry for snapping
dovewing: it’s ok it was my fault
*the very next scene*
dovewing: sorry for snapping
bumblestripe: you’re such a bitch you’re so mean to me and you’re not even going to reward me with a relationship for my chivalrous efforts!! how could you!!
On the topic of maps, there are way too many maps about the same characters and ships and scenes. Ashfur, Mapleshade, Hollyleaf, Ivypool, and Hawkfrost are on their 100000th map. The ideas are so overused that people are starting to make AUs around these characters (ex. Think the Cheeteh Z maps like cowboy mapleshade, bramblefur, hawkstorm, and hollyfawn). Instead of modifying the same characters, I wish they would make more maps about underrated and underrepresented characters/ships/scenes, especially since there probably are plenty of songs that fit.
Like, i guess ashfur and hollyleaf are popular, fun to animate, and many songs fit them but im sure people will still give your map attention if you made it about an underrated character. Didn’t someone make a map about daisy? That got attention. I don't want to hate on the map community. They're just trying to put together animated projects for fun. But idk, there are some characters/ships/scenes that are way too underrated and deserve their own map too.
