So, Onestar was her mentor and later they became mates. Am I the only one who thinks it'll be kind of awkward when we likely see them first as mentor and apprentice and then as mates in Onestarʼs Confession? I know he was a very young warrior, but still.

Idk, maybe he just becomes interested in her later after the Smoke situation (I wouldn't mind it if he cheated on Whitetail, I want more reasons to hate him), and them being mentor and apprentice gives them the time and space to develop a friendship and bond. Cherrytail was Sharpclaw's apprentice, and they got together somewhere in the SkyClan manga, so they had enough time to develop a bond before getting together.

To be fair, Cinderpelt was Firestar’s apprentice and she openly admits that she had feelings for him. And as stated above, Cherrytail was Sharpclaw’s apprentice and becomes his mate. So this pattern isn’t too uncommon. I’m pretty interested to see how they’ll write this, or if they’ll retcon the apprenticeship.

Well if the power dynamic is gone by then and they see each other as equals I wouldn't mind the difference? Though I would much rather prefer a retcon of him having a different apprentice to not risk a potential train wreck of their relationship. (Like they have an argument for instance) and everyone tries to say he doesn't respect her, and calling Onestar "the next Bramblestar" or something like that

i don't think its really an issue unless their relationship started while she was still his apprentice.
an unproblematic portrayal would be if whitepaw had a bit of a crush on her mentor that onewhisker either found amusing or didn't notice, and it wasn't until she was a warrior for awhile that he started feeling attraction toward her as a Fellow Adult.

As long as Whitetail is a warrior like him by the time that she becomes mates with Onewhisker, I don't see any issue with her previously having been his apprentice.

As long as she wasn't his apprentice when they got together, and as long as she wasn't groomed.

i've always disliked mentor x apprentice ships that actually become canon. it's disturbing.

Considering that Whitetail is listed as Onewhisker’s apprentice in Rising Storm. Then is listed as an expecting Queen in A Dangerous Path. There probably was some mutual attraction, and bonding while she was still his apprentice. And I’m assuming they mutually agreed to wait until she was a warrior to become mates. Guess we’ll see what happens in OsC. i wonder if they'll retcon that. it wouldn't be the first time.

As long as it happened when they had an equal power dynamic and when they were both warriors, OneWhite is fine to me. I really do wonder if it'll be retconned in his SE too.

It’s one thing if they just change ones opinion, or retcon a statement made in a tweet or some off sourced website, social media or other. But making confirmed in-universe retcons that basically completely change the interpretation and narrative of previous piece really just doesn’t settle well with me. Really hope they don’t.

When the first arc was written they were keeping it much more realistic to feline behavior, and wasn’t until TNP-PoT that they started to humanize their culture and society much more to what we have today. Even after they assimilated more human-like ideologies, doctrines and morality the authors still very much perceived them as more feral as opposed to the more anthropomorphized viewpoint of the fandom. That’s why they allow certain topics that would normally be targeted towards an older audience be present in the series if they were indeed human.
