I honestly don't dislike her as much as I probably should because of implied romance between her and Alder....I don't know. I'm not big on medicine cat x forbidden romances though. But Velvet is a sweet kittypet. Part of me kinda wonders if Alder was still was still a normal warrior cat would he choose to be with her?

I like Velvet. I just don't like her with Alderheart. It's easy to see why he liked her and I wouldn't have minded it if Alderheart was a warrior and became mates with her, but I'm glad nothing came out of it (and may it stay that way). That said, I liked their friendship.

I like her but I'm salty that they made Alderheart's character revolve around her. Kudos to Jayfeather for teaching him a lesson.

Look, she was cool, but she was in there for half the book and then she was gone. I don’t... I don’t see the point.

She's all right. I don't know enough about her to have an opinion. I agree. And that’s the problem. She appears, we see her for like three chapters, and then she’s gone.

She's okay. I wish she had been around a bit more so I can judge.

i like her. just not her weird relationship with alderheart that wasn’t needed, like, AT ALL. especially since she’s probably never going to be in a book again. it just really seems pointless. but aside from that, she’s fine

I really don't like her. Nothing against her personality or anything but she was so unnecessary. River of Fire had some ok parts, and some really bad parts. I didn't like Violetshine's POV because I thought the Yarrow/Sleek plot was annoying, and I thought Alderheart's POV was the best part of the book until Velvet came along. The only role she had was to be Alderheart's love interest. and I thought Fuzzball was annoying. Those two were just so unneeded, imo, and it ruined part of the book for me.
It just seemed so reminiscent of Thunder/Violet Dawn. Only involved to be the love interest, and absolutely no build up. Alder and Thunder both though the cats were beautiful upon first seeing them, and you already know exactly where its heading. and of course it's worse with Alderheart because he's a medicine cat, and this entire series we've been hoping that he wouldn't go down that road. but he does. and this is just a personal pet peeve but I thought her 'toy' was just a weird attempt at making her somewhat quirky. But Fuzzball and Velvet had no affect on the plot at all, and just served to make ThunderClan even more overcrowded for a while. I really hope she doesn't show up again, but Alder knows where she lives now so she probably will.
and.. this is coming from someone who like Jessy. Velvet's only traits are that she's pretty, kind, and knows herbs. Like okay.

I'm with Anubis, I don't like her role. She was totally unnecesary and the Alder x Velvet plot could have been done with Alder x Needle even after her death. Suddenly having a kittypet who knows about herbs and only serves as love interest sounds so much Jessy-like to my taste. I felt utterly betrayed that Alder's PoV was almost all about her and how beautiful she was? I expected way more from it.

I don't think it's farfetched that kittypets might know about herbs, I know some people have gardens and specifically grow herbs for their own consumptions. Cats will sometimes do just this, go into yards, and dig them up for uses. But I think she does remind me of Jessy, just not as unlikable. Probably because she was a more chill cat in personality, she seemed mature even. I feel like if Alder was a warrior, I wouldn't mind them, but he's a medicine cat...so it's a no-go for me still.

i like her and unpopular opinion but i liked her relationship with alderheart BECAUSE nothing came out of it and alder decided to stay loyal. it was refreshing to see someone ignore the tug of a forbidden romance. it was basically saying that you may not be able to control your feelings but you always can choose your path and alder chose thunderclan.

Velvet is fine I suppose. Actually my impression of her is that she's like a slightly better developed Violet Dawn. I also found it cute that she had a toy.
Anything that has to do with AlderXVelvet though? Get that the hell outta here. Why couldn't they just have been sweet friends?
I just hope that Velvet doesn't make a comeback carrying Alder's litter. pls
