#also imagine hollytuft and spotfur being combined.... imagine it

[yuridovewing]

I think a big thing that keeps muddling the family trees is that they keep giving legacy characters new litters! Like when I think cloudtail/brightheart kits I think whitewing, not their later ones who I keep forgetting are even theirs! Not saying every pairing should only have one litter, bit it'd be a big help if they didn't have them YEARS apart, I think a lot of mess could be avoided

oh absolutely. i think it's cute to give older couples new litters (like i'd have been cool with another sandfire litter) but also... what's the point if they're only background fodder? sure, lilyheart has more to do, but why make her another brackensorrel kit at all if she's not gonna be relevant to her older sisters at all? why not utilize the new cast more and make her a po3 character's daughter?

I think that's also what makes these so frustrating- these couples have new litters, and then the other siblings just don't interact with them much? for some reason? why did lioncinder have another litter when their first litter got nothing to do in AVOS? why are we suddenly running to give them more babies rather than fleshing out hollytuft or sorrelstripe?

everyone shat on ferncloud and her three separate litters...... how i yearn for those days, where ferncloud's litters at least felt relevant and like a full family (also side tangent, hmmmmm wonder why no one got on DUSTPELT'S ass for this..... only ferncloud's.... he made those babies too like cmon now)
