I would just re quote the entirety of the last ten minutes since the actual prophecy drop if I could but god just. “what if it’s nothing?” “well, was it fun?” “yeah” “then that’s all that matters” and “even if it’s already written I’m glad to share a story with you” bro. “We all have burdens that we did not ask to bear” or something along those lines.

just. a chosen one who’s told to find who he is, not just what the world tells him to be. no longer comforted by the idea of destiny, because the burden is so much and he wants to be more than destiny. but he’s so worried he’s nothing without it. he never measured up, and now the destiny he’s learned his entire life is false, and he just wants to seize his own life and make his own choices and carve his own path, but who is he if he doesn’t serve this purpose? if his destiny has been proven to be based off false prophecies, if he isn’t his titles, if he isn’t predestined and already written, then who is he? what do they see?

and the fact that his friends and crew all reassure him with the little things. the blue of his eyes, his courage, his kindness. someone who smokes weed to disastrous results, who throws gold into the ocean even though they’re meant to be pirates. someone who faces danger at their side and doesn’t back down, but laughs. someone who tries to be good.

not a hero of prophecy. not the chosen one. but their captain. their friend. their family. and even if all of that was all predestined and written and free will is an illusion, then fuck it. they’re written chasing freedom and fun, they’re written doing some good in the world, and above all else they’re written together - and that means that it isn’t nothing.

Also on that train of thought

The fics that have Feyd Rautha simp for Paul not because of a competency kink (which is arguably canon to the film - isn't that the reason why y'all say he looks turned on in the film?) but because of a misplaced adherence to the Bene Gesserit prophecy/plans (that Paul was meant to be Feyd's match in marital affairs) is not as inspired as you might think it is. It's not brave to say oh this boy was promised a gf and now he's pussywhipped for the boy he got in her stead. You've just reinvented a trans chaser with extra steps.

Also, the idea that Feyd Rautha would put that much faith in a prophecy feels reductive for a character that is already not a major-major player in the plot. I still need to read the book to get a better gauge on his character, but I've heard that he appears for a grand total of 4 scenes, which is kind of more or less the extent of his appearance in the films too. I would hope expanding on his characterisation meant giving him more agency (or at least a drive towards emancipation and agency) and more ambition amidst all the plans that have been made for him long before he was born. If he's truly as power hungry as Part Two seems to suggest - he has the will to assassinate his uncle Baron Harkonnen until he was appeased by the appointment of stewardship on Arrakis and the prospect of marrying Irulan for the throne - then what makes you think he would settle for doing as the Bene Gesserit expects of him? If he pursues Paul as a partner it would be through his own means and for reasons that defy the BG's chokehold on the imperium.

I can see but one path, sire / It's like nothing I've ever felt before…

i did a lot of research into runningnose specifically for that video i'm working on but i found something interesting that i thought i'd share since it doesn't fit very well into the video lol

i'm like... 75% sure that runningnose reacts to yellowfang's death two separate times-

for context, at the end of rising storm, runningnose runs ahead of shadowclan to let the other clans know at the gathering that they're not sick anymore and fireheart takes the opportunity to pull him aside and let him know that yellowfang had died

the next book (which i checked, is in fact written by a different author) fireheart announces her death at the gathering to everyone else and runningnose is mentioned to be "sitting erect and upward, his eyes clouded with sorrow" which wouldn't be an odd descriptor, except he was described looking COMPLETELY different earlier in the book.

tigerstar announces the deaths of nightstar and cinderfur and fireheart looks over and sees runningnose "sitting with his head bowed" and that "he could not see his face, but his hunched posture suggested he was lost in misery"

now compare to his reaction to fireheart announcing yellowfang's death- that is a completely different reaction.

he was already aware all three of these characters were dead, so why is he described so differently?

i think it's subtle, but i think runningnose was accidentally written to react to her death twice lol

could i be wrong? absolutely, this is the tiniest of tiny mistakes in warrior cats and it doesn't really matter either way, it's a single line of dialogue but i thought it was interesting regardless!

Up next is a long-overdue new ref sheet for Ravenpaw.

For his physical description, Ravenpaw is described as sleek, plump tom with a long, thin tail. Yeah, I know everyone always draws him super skinny and he's described that way in Into the Wild, but in Fire and Ice Fireheart describes him as sleek and plump and totally different from how skinny and dull he looked while living in ThunderClan. I didn't make him super plump, just a nice healthy weight and an average-ish build. The scarring on his shoulder is from the Sunningrocks battle that killed Redtail, we see him with the injured shoulder in Into the Wild.

For his pattern, Ravenpaw is described as a black tom with a tiny white dash on his chest and a white-tipped tail. Not much here, just changed his eyes to green from the amber I had on his old sheet.

Overall, I'm fairly happy with how he turned out.
