inspired to make my own thread from Aqua 's daisy vs ferncloud poll what do u think a ferncloud novella would be about? people favor daisy over ferncloud because daisy got more to her character overall. to me though, there's a lot to explore about ferncloud. the loss of her kits over the years, behind the scenes on the ashfur stuff (did she ever talk to him? did she ever know about his darkness inside? what did she do if she did? if she knew, did she talk to anyone else like dustpelt about it? etc.). there's a lot they could show us from her POV. how does she feel about her grandkits? how does she feel about x, y, z ,etc. ? i'd prefer a novella about how she dealt with ashfur. i dont want to believe she just abaonded her brother after getting a mate...but then again, this series has a hard time showing us relationships...such as when sorreltail stopped being shown friends with leafpool once she got with brackenfur lmao

This idea for a novella would be interesting, I love novellas where they show off a villain through another cat's eyes

This idea is . I agree with Snowfire about showing off a villain through another cat's eyes. I think it would be interesting to see Ashfur through Ferncloud's eyes, but he won't be the MAIN thing about it, because screw novellas that are supposed to be about one cat, but hardly even focus on them or their life. You know though, if there's a novella about Ashfur's sister, they're going to include him in it somehow. Or maybe make it about Ferncloud's feelings about Tigerstar I, because oh the writers love to write stuff from that era of Warriors. What I'm picturing is Ferncloud being all like "what the hell happened?" about Ashfur, and then the book being like each chapter is a memory of a different time in her life, most of them are memories of her and Ashfur, and she tries to wonder what happened, and if there was anything she could have done.

Ehhh, the only thing they'd probably be able to do with her is show her point of view of Ashfur, maybe? But even then she'd basically just run the risk of being a "camera" as some fans put it. Whereas a lot of interesting things happened in Ferncloud's life around her, not much happened to her personally as a character. So my guess is that the writers would have had to make something up plot-wise to give her any actual agency as a character on her own and not just as "Brindleface's daughter" or "Ashfur's sister" or even worse "Dustpelt's mate", etc.
It kinda reminds me of how Sandstorm's character suffers because she's always in Firestar's shadow, I feel like that goes 10 fold for Ferncloud's character, unfortunately.
