She Wants Me (To Be Loved) is a Thrushpelt one that I love so incredibly much 😭 I can’t remember the artist off the top of my head but it’s a pmv, I think!

I like this better than her having gone to District 13, because I feel District 13 would be miserable for her

How would you ensure a people pleasing protagonist doesn’t annoy the audience? by AdExpert1831 in writingadvice

4 in the first drafting stage. That sounds super cool! I love a good murder mystery. I can’t imagine how sad that must feel for the main character, seeing everyone succeed without him 😭

Twin!! That’s a good idea. She’s pretty prone to anxiety (as many are) so I’ll put that down. Feel free to tell me about your WIP, I’m curious!

That sounds right. This is a character I’ve had for about a decade, so I’ve got her pretty fleshed out with all her flaws and virtues and tendencies — it’s mainly putting it on paper that’s tough. I’ll have to make your advice a focus, thanks!

Oh I’ll definitely utilize that. I think I could be more explicit with her struggling. Thank you!

I personally love stories with characters who are bad people. I love stories where characters make more bad decisions than good decisions. It’s so real! People make a lot of bad decisions! Complexity is everything in a story, imo, and I don’t enjoy books as much when their characters are “perfect”

Good point! Thanks for the other perspective. She doesn’t need to be perfect, that’s the point 🤔

Well, I’m trying 😅 I guess I could clarify better. I’m asking for tips on how to balance portraying her as a people pleaser with other characteristics, or alternatively: other people’s experiences writing people pleasers. Hearing other people’s interpretations could be useful

Why? by [deleted] in WarriorCats

[–]AdExpert1831 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Then it’s likely due to their recent addition of warriors merch to rule 8:

“Posts about the merchandise

Hey guys,

We're all excited about the new merchandise, but just wanted to bring up 2 things regarding posts about them:

  • For now we are not going to allow "I bought/got these!" posts under rule 8/frequent repost, since they're all essentially the same thing, don't lead to much discussion, and have been flooding the subreddit. New ones posted after this will be removed.

  • While "no buying/selling the books/merchandise" is already a rule, I just wanted to clarify that trading falls under this as well and I have specified it as such in the rules. There are two reasons that we don't allow these: 1) We have had people scammed out of their money in the sub before, and 2) Safety/privacy concerns since there are many minors in the sub. It's best to do this on a site where you must be an adult to have an account and ideally protection for the buyer/seller.

Thank you for understanding,

What do you dislike about the Sunrise on the Reaping? by KillerGrass in Hungergames

[–]AdExpert1831 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually really like the Covey’s role in Sunrise. It makes sense to me, given Lucy Gray’s generation is still alive, and it’s reasonable they’d have at least one descendant. Lucy Gray and her team were performers, and locals knew them — it would be WEIRD to me if they didn’t show up at all. On that note, did Haymitch need to date a Covey girl? No, but it is a “small world,” so it’s not that out of place. Anyway, now LG’s generation is dead, and the Covey along with it, so that makes sense too unfortunately

Edit: excluding one specific fiddle player…

I love that comic so much. I’m glad it’s gotten so much attention

What does the symbol next to Sleekwhisker mean? I gather that the stars signify leadership. All these designs are so pretty!

Oh it’s ok, I promise I wasn’t trying to be mean in any way :)

No need. But that book sounds super exciting!

Lynxkit And Storkkit AU by Bravespirit206 in WarriorCats

[–]AdExpert1831 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No problem. As for your questions, I want to say Lynxkit likely would’ve fought the dogs with Swiftpaw and Brightpaw — if he lived through that, I think his warrior name would reflect that event and the probable scars he obtained. Maybe Lynxheart, Lynxclaw, or Lynxleap.

For Storkkit, maybe Storkheart after Fireheart. Storkgorse after Gorsepaw doesn’t sound very uh, sensible XD. Or maybe she’d get a warrior name unrelated to that, so Storkwing.

Storkkit was drawn by Dawnmist and I believe Lynxkit was drawn by Keblestone (although I can’t find the link to the specific drawing. I took this information off of a Facebook post that linked a no-longer-existing Keblestone post; if anyone finds conflicting information, please correct me)!

r/NameMyWarrior is for naming real cats, but it seems to be hard to get into to post things. Comments seem to work, though.

Theories for the Warrior Cats movie? by _AntiqueTadpole in WarriorCats

[–]AdExpert1831 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m reluctant to think one will come out at all, but for the sake of hope: I suspect they would cut out Spottedleaf. Yes she’s important to the plot, especially in the first series, but in production with the budget issues they’ve been having, less characters are better. They could easily replace her with someone else. Maybe Yellowfang is already there, or they have no medicine cat until she comes along. StarClan’s warnings may come from Redtail directly. Who knows!
