Let's just say for a second that LGBT+ characters in the Warriors books were allowed (and unfortunately, imo, they will never be allowed in)... if you could make any LGTB+ couples (they can be canon or non-canon), who would they be and how would they become mates?
I personally dislike Lionblaze for some reason (please don't flood me with hate comments!), so if I could write the books (for me), I would make it where Hollyleaf remained alive, Cinderheart and Lionblaze moved on, and Hollyleaf and Cinderheart became mates.(in fact, I'm writing a personal short story about that now, and the most important parts in the book are about Hollyleaf and Cinderheart realizing they have feelings for each other (and eventually expressing their feelings towards each other to each other), becoming mates, and fighting for the right for them to become mates (against most of the Clan), and in the end, they will be accepted and Cinderheart and Hollyleaf will live together happily as mates.

I actually really like Hollyleaf x Cinderheart and Lionblaze x Toadstep, because it's implied Toadstep looks up to Lionblaze. Then Blossomfall would end up with Ivypool.

I've actually always wanted to do an RP on that (either Cinderheart x Hollyleaf or Blossomfall x Ivypool)... I know we just "met", but do you want to do a 1x1 RP on one of those? (or a non-canon warriors-related fxf or mxm RP?)

In fact my ava is art I drew myself, her name is Maplefrost, and she has a she-cat for a mate. I've been wanting to bring my old rp clan ideas to this forum, but I haven't gotten around to doing it yet.

My usual character is named Sparkwood, and she doesn't currently has a mate (and she only likes other she-cats). also, just to let you know in advance, I'm not on here all the time, but I'm always on my email, so, uh.... yeah, I know we just met, like, 10 minutes ago, but um... both work for me (email and WCRP), I'll just say that. I've been putting off writing a good RP, tbh with you (so I can kinda connect with that)

So even if you're not on here all the time, it's okay.

So even if you're not on here all the time, it's okay. Sounds like a plan. But while we're both here - and since I've not RPed in, like, numerous months - do you want to do a simple 1x1 RP (between you and me) for fun, and so I could at the same time become less rusty?

[T]he most important parts in the book are about Hollyleaf and Cinderheart realizing they have feelings for each other (and eventually expressing their feelings towards each other to each other), becoming mates, and fighting for the right for them to become mates (against most of the Clan), and in the end, they will be accepted and Cinderheart and Hollyleaf will live together happily as mates. That's the only real beef I would have with openly LGBT characters. The Warriors world isn't completely analogous to ours, and I would just find it weird if the Clans took issue with gay characters and discriminated against them. Like, Berrynose marching around yelling, "Love is one tom and one she-cat!" That would just be bizarre. The only issue the Clans should have with them is that they aren't producing kits, but cats without mates don't produce kits either, and only a few have actually been heckled about not being in a relationship. Plus, discrimination against LGBT characters technically falls under relationship drama, and the fandom already hates forbidden love. I'd rather they just be accepted, although a few characters could find it surprising. Nothing against your story, though. If you're writing it for personal reasons, then it's a reflection of your feelings, so you should write what you want to write. I mean, it's an outlet, and you don't have to worry about pleasing the Warriors fanbase (which is impossible, anyway), so write about the struggle they face and overcome.

Tbh, I've already taken action and done just that - yes, they will be accepted, although a few will still silently question their relationship. You do have a very valid point here.
