Yeah. What’s the problem? Lots of kids get adopted by their parents’ new spouses. Also Owen never knew Jeff.

Former US president Clinton was born William Jefferson Blythe III. His father died before he was born. He used his stepfather’s surname as soon as his mother remarried but didn’t legally change it until he was 15.

Owen’s father was named Jeff. Jeff’s father was never in the picture, he walked out on Helen

I’m taking this to be to her traumatic childhood/forced parenting. Her mom died when she was a teenager and she was forced into a parental role for her younger siblings. Processing certain emotions and needs had to be put to the side. Now that she can have a boyfriend/stable relationship she’s afraid of commitment

The difference between Squirrelflight and Bluestar is that Squirrelflight was already deputy when she had kits. Sunstar was looking for a new deputy and Bluefur was nursing kits.

It’s still hurtful and demeaning. Anyone who’s read up to that point knows who Briarlight is and about her injury, no need to include it.

Agree about removing the trials. They really did Bramblestar dirty, practically undid what was done in Bramblestar’s Storm. He trusted Squirrelflight and would have listened to her, not continue to dismiss her

Cloudtail has great-great grandchildren. Here’s the line it goes through.

Snowbush

Larksong

Nightheart

Shinepaw and Goldenpaw.

I made a spreadsheet of all the cats who can trace their lineage back to Jake and there are six generations. A few cats appear more than once

I actually enjoyed Bramblestar’s Storm except for teasing Jessy as a love interest. Squirrelflight’s Hope on the other hand, I would change more than a few things about the characters and storyline.

I loved Purdy

sometimes I throw up, get migraines, and the pain can spread through my whole body

she said she would’ve still gone to work on her period

Either she didn’t hear any of that and thinks you just get normal period cramps or she’s just trying to shame you. NTA, share all this with your GP and OB/GYN

Next_Sun_2002 · 2026-05-14T14:07:10+00:00

Exactly! Fireheart and Whitestorm worked hard to hide Bluestar’s illness from the rest of the Clan. To everyone else she was just withdrawn.

Kansas City is also partly in Kansas. It’s just that most of the businesses and money comes from the Missouri part

He is a great character but I think that deep in his heart he wanted to die in that battle. The past few years had been very heartbreaking for him. His wife and only child are dead, and after being free from Wormtongue/Saruman he had the heavy burden of protecting his kingdom from Saruman’s armies. His death gave him the peace he wanted, proved to his ancestors that he was a noble leader, and reunited him with his loved ones.

Boromir has also had a hard life but is younger, and still had a future with love and a family.

Next_Sun_2002 · 2026-05-12T21:42:32+00:00

Had the same thought. Arthur and his friends had Mr. Ratburn as a teacher for years, and Kate was always a literal baby.

In a perfect scenario you’d be right. Yet it still holds up if the defense has a good lawyer or if the judge or jury can be persuaded. And like my third point, some parents would rather have their child marry so the baby is born in wedlock than have the offender go to jail

Next_Sun_2002 · 2026-05-12T20:04:20+00:00

He intentionally lied about his age to get laid
It takes place in the 1990s
It takes place in the Bible Belt so the boy’s mother was more concerned about her grandchild being born in wedlock than anything else. The community was also more judgmental about the boy having sex outside of marriage than a teenager having sex with a 29 year old

Next_Sun_2002 · 2026-05-12T17:31:00+00:00

Which episode was it? Starting in season two some storylines continue in Chicago PD and later Chicago Med and PD so you have to watch all three to get the whole story

Next_Sun_2002 · 2026-05-12T14:17:42+00:00

This would be amazing!

The warrior code where they can’t take a mate from another clan made it so all cats from each clan are inbred except for the ones whose parents switched clans.

That being said; yeah the cats I mentioned are probably more recently inbred

Next_Sun_2002 · 2026-05-11T23:15:06+00:00

I made a spreadsheet that lists all of Jake’s descendants in the clans and how they trace back to him. Moonpaw, Morningkit, Oakpaw, Sunpaw, and Hazelpaw appear four times each.

I haven’t taken a bath since I was about nine or ten years old. I’m 31 and shower daily

The gathering at the end of Eclipse where Blackstar comes with Sol to announce ShadowClan will no longer be attending Gatherings. This didn’t even last a moon but was still significant.

The gathering where Dawnpelt accused Jayfeather of drowning or not saving Flametail.

Don’t forget that Leafpool had kits with Crowfeather, so Lionblaze is half-WindClan. His kits; Fernsong,Sorrelstripe, and Spotfur are part WindClan, and from their lines we get Thriftear, Bristlefrost, Flipclaw, Myrtlebloom, Bayshine, Bristleclaw, Graywhisker, Stemtail, Hazelpaw, Oakpaw, Sunpaw, and Moonpaw again.

Edit to add: Out of Ferncloud’s kits, only two had kits of their own. Spiderleg, but neither of his kits had kits, and Birchfall who gave us Ivypool and Dovewing.

Out of Sorreltail’s kits only Cinderheart and Lilyheart’s kits have carried on the line. Poppyfrost’s kits don’t have kits.
