I'm not going to see much of it. I live down south, so the moon is only going to partially cover the sun.

So cute!
I only got to see totality because of a teacher taking some kids to a nearby town to see it. Traffic was bad though.
But it was amazing.

Also, Hawktalon, I have a question for you. How do you come up with such amazing plots in your comics?

The new page is so cute. Also, Hawktalon, I have a question for you. How do you come up with such amazing plots in your comics? Thank you!! And hmm... well, it's complicated because my inspiration can come from very odd sources... I don't remember where I got the original PLOT of YY from, but the springing point for the general theme of the comic, the Yin and Yang part actually came from Pokemon Black and White... before they were released I was looking at pre-release unconfirmed info in ye olde days of around 2010 maybe and I saw that the games may be based off the concept of Yin and Yang, and I'd been wanting to do a comic, and for some reason, that sparked the idea. I unfortunately don't remember where I got the rest of the original plot, if there was any one source of inspiration. I literally don't remember anything about the pre-creation of Broken Wings. I don't remember where I got the idea for winged cats lol. I remember nothing except for a certain part of the story was inspired by the game The Dog Island For The Unforgiven, this is going to sound really dumb, but the idea came to me while listening to the song Jar of Hearts by Kristina Perri... gosh that's so bad why did that even happen geez ... anyway In Skyfall, I just built on what was already established for Broken Wings And for the remake of YY, I'm trying to keep the original plot, but at the same time am adding things to make it make more sense, and to be more relevant for the readers. I add things that I like, for example, I like reading things that make me have to think about them, so I made the lesson of Lavenderstar's story up for interpretation depending on who is reading. The plot is of course, inspired by the original YY. So yeah... I get my inspiration from weird places. If this was a question for like "how do you do it so I can do it too", the only advice I can give is to... do a lot of things? Read a lot of things, watch things, listen to things... maybe you'll be watching some history documentary and be like "wow I can totally use some ideas from this for a story" and boom you got something, you'll just have to build it up from there. Usually, all it takes is the right burst of inspiration from the right place, and from there, a lot of it falls into place on its own I hope this helps!

OOC I'm glad I got back into reading this comic. It's amazing and I read it all in one sitting. I only vaguely remember the original, so it's really cool to see the new version and read it.

Love the new page! The lighting in the first panel and the dye painting and the poses and the dialogue eee <3 I'm really excited to see the gathering too ^^"
Just a question- so in your clans, are medicine cats not supposed to have mates? Do Lavenderstar and Browntail have to keep pretty quiet about their feelings when they're with other cats?

I have a suggestion for those who can't find ideas ^^ read books, listen to music, read poetry, and get ideas off of what you see/know it's really helpful to make up plots and/or characters :^) Yes! Just DO as much as you can and you'll get ideas from everything!

Do Lavenderstar and Browntail have to keep pretty quiet about their feelings when they're with other cats? thanks so much moon! i'll answer your question below... Just a question- so in your clans, are medicine cats not supposed to have mates? Do Lavenderstar and Browntail have to keep pretty quiet about their feelings when they're with other cats? and the answer! Well... it's complicated. My Warrior Code is the same as the one in the books. So yeah, technically their relationship is breaking the Code. But its also complicated becasue it's not actually part of the Code in the books that Medicine Cats can't have mates. I know, I looked on the wikia and in the Code of the Clans book, its just not there. So I guess it's just frowned upon? But I think also that the main stigma against it isn't the having of a mate, its more of a Medicine Cat having kits thats the problem. Well, obviously Browntail and Lavenderstar can't have kits. But anyway, the other two Clans don't know anything, they don't even suspect. I guess they just think that Lavenderstar just never got a mate lol. Most of MountainClan does know, or at least they think that something's going on. But Lavenderstar and Browntail try (and fail) to keep it on the down low from MountainClan in case it gets out to the other Clans. If that happened, there might be a problem. In the part where Yinpaw is eavesdropping on Skullstripe and Lavenderstar's conversation, there's a blanked out part that she couldn't hear. This is how it actually went: - SKULLSTRIPE: “I know what Browntail told you. Every cat in MountainClan knows how-“ - LAVENDERSTAR: “Watch what you say, Skullstripe.” - SKULLSTRIPE: “Spirits! I don’t care about what you and Browntail have together. Even if it is against the Warrior Code. I didn’t accept mentoring an Apprentice for you or for me or for Yinpaw. I did it for Browntail. She’s my last link to… Fawnspots.” So yep!

Well (Warriors Wiki) So, it is technically against the code for medicine cats to have kits or a mate. It's just part of the medicine cat code, not the warrior code. Still the code, though. And, considering all the drama that came when a medicine cat did take a mate and kits (Yellowfang, Leafpool) it isn't just frowned upon. But, your Clans do have a different culture and beliefs than the main Clans, so, sure, they might not care as much about medicine cats having mates. Idk. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Its been so long I don't even remember what its called.. the one with the Dark Forest battle anyway... I'll have to figure out if Lavenderstar and Browntail's relationship will be such a big part of the overarching plot (at least in the way that its a forbidden romance, being part of the plot anyway) and then I'll decide if the books way is different from my own. So for now, its undetermined lol

They made a huge deal out of it in Moth Flight's Vision, and also with Yellowfang with the whole "StarClan is punishing me for taking a mate so they made me have an evil kit" stuff, and with the Leafpool and Crowfeather epidemic we all know about. Also, the last OotS book is called The Last Hope. cx Whatever you decide to do, though, I'm sure it'll be interesting.

tbh the Clans of the mountains you have are distant enough from canon (I mean, broken wings, skyfall ect) that a small change such as that wouldn't be a crazy thought at all. It took Moth Flight to create that part of the code, but if your clans never had a Moth Flight precedent then it never would have come to be in the first place. Or, like you said, they could take mates but be strict on the no-having-kits side of the deal.
Because if they get split up you'll have one angry fangirl on your hands. Probably more than one by now lol. It must happen.

Or, like you said, they could take mates but be strict on the no-having-kits side of the deal. Because if they get split up you'll have one angry fangirl on your hands. Probably more than one by now lol. It must happen. At this point, I just haven't thought too much about how the Code would be different from the one in the books. I think with the original YY, I just made it exactly the same just to make it easier for myself. But now, I am in a better position to be able to make it different if I want to. Some parts, like Lavenderstar said in when she was yelling at Skullstripe and during the story when she mentioned a few parts of the code: a Leader's word is law, no crossing borders, no killing for the sake of killing... these just seem rational in any Clan setting I think. But there's no reason to say that my Code could be different, as like you said, there was no impetus action like Moth Flight (of whom I don't actually know who they are i havent read their book lol) to have start the rules that Medicine Cats have to live by. At least, if there is, I havent thought of it. Maybe there was an incident, maybe there was one and it ended differently, idk now that we've been talking about this, I will have to actually give my Code some thought... I'll get on that and get back to you all and don't worry about Lav and Browntail, they're not splitting up anytime soon. you guys know how much I love them together too

Well, I came up with a Warrior Code for my Clans! I should have changed it anyway from the books one (and also should have come up with my Code sooner lol), as my comics don't have kittypets... they don't exist in my world cause I don't want humans in my world lol Anyway, I sense another Special Episode coming on that will discuss the Warrior Code for my Clans! Look forward to that, but I don't j ow when it'll be started or finished!
