Really getting similar vibes of Fireheart and Bluestar meetings when Bluestar was on her last legs with this. Wouldn't be surprised if Bramblestar has dementia as well.

I hope he retires before it can get to that.

Yep. According to the events timeline on the wiki Bramblestar and Tawnypelt are around 11 years old. It is for sure time for them to retire.

It's weird because the narrative likes to act like they're not. Right? It's so odd having characters like Bright/Bracken/Cloud who have retired for a hot minute, all being granted almost 2 years older then Bramble but still, surprised he doesn't have aching joints or slightly greyed out fur esp with the stressful job of being a leader Granted IRL cats can live to well over 20+ and are rather well-kept but considering the series has been all over the place in terms of "old" and "young" it's weird seeing cats like Squirrel be completely fine then you have cats like Rosetail who became an elder at like what 5? While Spiderleg/Whitestorm have been described as old despite both of them just being 6 or so

Man I'm REALLY loving Owlnose. I had wanted Icestar or Minnowstar for a while, but Owlnose must be protected. I feel really bad for this poor lad.

At the Gathering following Owlnose’s failed Moonpool experience. Man it’s a disaster, poor Owlnose. Harestar seriously suggests that appointing such young cats (Owlnose and Splashtail) to lead RiverClan is “no better than kits”. Ouch.
Tigerstar is being a world class douche as well. Chill out man.

Leafstar continues to be the voice of reason among the Clans. I just have one question- what the f*** is the point of Tree then? He’s supposed to be the mediator of the Clans and yet while all this chaos is raging around him he just does nothing?

Nightheart is kind of reminding me of Jayfeather and I like him, sort of. But I don’t like how critical he is of Bramblestar. He should stop judging him so harshly. And it feels weird that they only reveal now he was terrorized specifically by the impostor during his reign.

I don't know if this was an intentional nod to BlogClan or not but either way as a BlogClan member I'm laughing my head off.

I was really liking Squirrelflight in The Broken Code. I disliked her a lot in River. I really really don't like her in Sky. Look I understand her being upset about Tigerstar wanting to take control of RiverClan, but did she struggle so hard in the last arc to get him back for this? Why can't she be more supportive of her mate who is clearly suffering from severe trauma...

Nightheart says Bramblestar has never invited him on a walk before. Didn't he and Bramblestar have a chat in River on a walk?

Frostpaw thinks she might love Splashtail. Sigh. Why?
Why? Just why.

Haha. Fidgetflake being in RiverClan's medicine den and interrogating Frostpaw gives me the Mothwing/Shadowsight vibes from Darkness Within. Yeah Mothwing let's see how you like it.

Fidgetflake mentions Leafstar saw Cloudstar and her mother at her nine lives ceremony. Doesn’t this break continuity since the leaders aren’t supposed to share what they saw? How could Fidgetflake know about this?

How could Fidgetflake know about this? I can’t remember if Leafstar was ever told she can’t discuss it. SkyClan back at the gorge was under rules separate from the four Clans and knowing that both a SkyClan ancestor and a parent with SkyClan blood(?) despite never being in the Clan, could have been good for morale since SkyClan has had a variety of hardships.

You know that’s a great point. And my goal was to finish it last night but again I fell asleep. I will definitely finish it today though.

She was told she couldn’t discuss it by Firestar and she chose not to because she feels she can’t describe it. However, she is shown discussing things like signs and dreams with other people. A few characters also discuss what they’ve seen with ceremonies, like Mothwing talking about what she saw to Leafpaw, and the medicine cats talking about different dreams at the end of the last arc. so I think the series just got less strict about that as it was done. but it’s mostly frowned upon if someone discusses things like that. As for Fidgetflake, there’s no way he could’ve known that unless she discussed it with him offscreen (since it was Echosong present at the nine lives ceremony). What I’d like to know is that how Nightstar not having nine lives became common knowledge, unless people started deducing what happened. That was supposed to be a well hidden secret, and the only people who knew were Runningnose and Firestar. As far as I’m aware, neither divulged anything…

Tigerclaw could have told ShadowClan that to make himself look more legitimate and word spread.

Lol. Nightheart's perspective on Bramblestar does a complete 180 after he is assigned to spy on ShadowClan. Before he was all "dang this dude is a horrible leader he doesn't do shit" then he's like "maybe his confusion is just part of his greatness". Lmaooooo
