Now that we have the excerpt for Thunder, what do you guys think will happen moving forward?

Squirrelflight is definitely not getting those lives. There's way too much "oh nose! I hope I get the lives..." dialogue going on, and I feel that the news of the next super editions has more or less spoiled that things won't be going so smoothly.

Added Spoilers and ASC labels. - Squirrelflight will either be rejected by StarClan or get her nine lives (but I hope that, if the latter is the case, she will step down by the end of ASC and Ivypool takes over) - I previously had a theory (and was not alone with that hunch) that the dogs who killed Curlfeather might make an appearance at the Moonpool and get both Squirrelflight and Bramblestar (really hope it still doesn't yet happen but who knows) - Frostpaw will go to the Moonpool while still injured and meet Nightheart there who is guarding BrambleSquirrel and Alderheart while they dream (just trying to come up with a scenario of their first proper interaction since they'll go on a journey together in this book) - Frostpaw will either get over her understandable distrust of everyone briefly due to her attack to stay in the ThunderClan camp for a bit until she's healed and then go on the quest with Nightheart or he'll hide her in the abandoned Twoleg den with Whistlepaw coming in to check on her, and maybe Alderheart and even Sunbeam (this is just a theory as to where she'll stay while healing since I doubt she is going back to RiverClan until the next book due to the Wind blurb also saying she will go to ShadowClan there instead) - Frostpaw and Nightheart go on the journey alone (just the two of them) and bond with each other (but please no romance, you never know with the writers and I just wouldn't put it past them even with NightSun being canon for now) - Sunbeam stays behind (as pretty much confirmed in the Thunder blurb) and bonds with Sparkpelt, Finchlight and the rest of ThunderClan but continues to be harassed by her mother on border and hunting patrols whenever she is near the ShadowClan border, she eventually decides to go after Nightheart with Sparkpelt and Finchlight by her side (just an assumption based on the cover but that could also just be them on a patrol together) - Berryheart is exiled by Tigerstar like it was revealed in the Wind blurb (hoping we'll see it happen but doubtful since we no longer have a ShadowClan PoV), maybe she openly attacked Fringewhisker or something like that - Splashtail goes full mask off and stages a coup to get the ShadowClan cats out of RiverClan (or he goes about it more diplomatically, who knows), either way the Wind blurb states that he seizes control and his ambitions turn violent so I'm exited to see him in action - Wafflepaw speaks one sentence or word and that is it (highly doubt there will be more than that aside from a quick cameo)

The line from Bramblestar about remaining leader even if they reject Squirrelflight has me thinking that StarClan's going to pull some nonsense and not let him step down. Like when Owlnose tried to get his nine lives, StarClan wasn't there, so perhaps StarClan remains silent for Bramblestar and Squirrelflight.

Nah, I genuinely think that's just Bramblestar worrying about the outcome of the Moonpool meeting.

If we don't get Squirrelstar but instead Ivystar I'm gonna lose it. Never been a Ivypool fan, this would kill thunderclan for me tbh.

Berryheart either starts a war and tries to blame it on Fringewhisker (I honestly wouldn't put it past her) or just flat out attacks her daughter-in-law. She gets exiled somehow.

Why else would they have Nightheart on guard duty if something wasn't going to happen at the Moonpool? They could have easily made Nightheart stay at camp and time-skip to morning and suddenly Squirrelstar.
Either Frostpaw stumbles into the Moonpool while everyone is there, or we get an interruption like the dogs coming back.
Dogs possibly killing Squirrelflight which forces Bramblestar to stay leader and pick Ivypool to be deputy anyway? Could happen.
Anyone remember the murder mystery that is Reedwhisker? Maybe we might find out who did it this book?

Frostpaw and Whistlepaw go on their own adventures since Frostpaw won't trust anyone else. Please let this happen <3
Something will definitely happen to disrupt the peace in ThunderClan, there's no way this is going to be a while book of Nightheart and Sunbeam chilling together.
Something happens at the Moonpool while Nightheart is standing guard. I don't think the Erin's would make him do that if nothing eventful happens.

-Berryheart will attack someone and get exiled. -Squirrelflight won't become a leader. I'm on this same fence, but basically both of these together. Berryheart noted Nightheart wasn't in camp, and my guess is that she's going to track them to Moonpool and attack Nightheart there. And during the struggle, Squirrelflight jumps in to help but gets murked. This can be after StarClan rejects her. And when they realize she's not coming back with another life, it'll be the reveal that she didn't get accepted. And this is why Berryheart gets exiled, and Bramblestar is stuck as leader until Ivypool ascends to leadership.

And this is why Berryheart gets exiled, and Bramblestar is stuck as leader until Ivypool ascends to leadership. That's an interesting theory, I didn't think of that. I still think Berryheart attacking Fringewhisker and getting exiled over that could be a possibility as well but her attacking Nightheart and causing some type of damage to either Bramblestar or Squirrelflight is indeed something to consider. Especially if she does it at the Moonpool, a sacred place for the Clans.

-I was pretty dissapointed by the interaction between Whistlepaw and Frostpaw since I was hoping for more WindClan involvement in Thunder. It was nice to see more interaction between the two, but it would have been nice to see more of Harestar and other WindClan cats. What will probably end up happening is that Whistlepaw finds some way to hide Frostpaw from her clanmates, and then Frostpaw will later on journey to the old RiverCan territory with Nightheart.
-And this is my hope as well as prediction but hopefully Frostpaw and Nightheart will meet WarriorClan on their journey, I think it would be really cool to see more of them. I was also thinking that Wafflepaw might be a WarriorClan cat.

I do like your prediction better. I can see that too! Maybe all the fighting attracts the dogs and they finish Squirrel off, and so the blame still falls on Berryheart.

i do not think squirrelflight will get her lives or if she does, i think that thunderclan might try to use the voting system to revoke her leadership because we’ve yet to see that come into play and i think it’d be interesting.
either that, or berryheart / dogs attack them at the moonpool. that does sound more likely considering the dialogue, why would both bramblestar and squirrelflight worry that some uninvited cat will show up otherwise? and why would nightheart be there as a guard, which is not usually required at the moonpool? something is definitely up and i’ll be kinda disappointed if nothing at all happens honestly

So much so that the foreshadowing was almost on the nose.
