Snake Gets Done Dirtier

In The Blazing Star, Book 4 of DOTC, Snake turned against Clear Sky because he allowed One Eye into the camp against all warnings.

Clear Sky came to take his power and authority back after he massively fucked up, and Snake didn't want this. He didn't accept a bullshit apology, and attacked him.

Here is the passage again;

He turned against him because CLEAR SKY allowed a cat into the Clan that CARVED A TATTOO INTO SNAKE'S FLESH.

NOTHING, NOTHING about this interaction implies that Snake was upset that One Eye got killed. He was NOT loyal to One Eye. He did not WANT the mark. He's angry that Clear Sky "LET THIS HAPPEN" because he got a permanent brand cut into his paw.

Snake is the ONLY character who didn't accept Clear Sky's return. When he hears "We're all family here :) I risked my life to get my dictatorship back which is totally atonement :)" Snake calls it for the bullshit that it is, gets dog-piled by his sycophants, and leaves after refusing Clear Sky's "MY way or the HIGHWAY" ultimatum.

This is incredibly meaningful for the character of Snake, actually, because he was an extremely loyal minion for Clear Sky.

Described as "ugly" and "stinky" for the first books of his appearance sell him as one of the most eager, violent cats in Proto-SkyClan (interesting that the erins immediately attack appearance and hygiene to show a character is 'savage'), Snake eventually carries out Clear Sky's orders to murder cats indiscriminately at The First Battle. Everything he does for his leader is done without question. So, standing up against Clear Sky here is a REAL rejection of what Snake used to be.

Snake's RIGHT. Clear Sky DID let this happen! He's WHY this entire Clan suffered under a bigger, badder tyrant. Clear Sky ignored all the warnings he was given, and even got SO offended to hear them that he threw a fit and called his disabled brother (no, the OTHER disabled brother) a broken cat!

But the writers can't let anyone have a point that Clear Sky is a horrible leader who shouldn't be trusted with a goldfish, let alone an entire Clan. So it's time to throw that out the window and say that, ackshually, Snake was loyal to One Eye the whole time and that's why he didn't immediately bow down to Clear Sky.

In Book 6, Snake is a different character.

He's just evil now, serving the most evilestist character they can imagine.

Snake stood up against Clear Sky because of his BAD JUDGEMENT. He did not like One Eye. Snake was done with tyranny, and that IS a redemption moment. The start of a REAL redemption arc. Not whatever bullshit the Erins think a "redemption" arc is, where consequences are so mean because guilt is enough :(

Nope! Retcon two books later. Either intentional malice because they can't have a reasonable character STAY MAD at Clear Sky, or such utter incompetence that they can't keep the motivations of their characters consistent within their own arc.

Slash's group, we have Slash himself, Willow Tail and Red Claw, Willow Tail's brother Frog, and their mother Tansy. Then Ember, Stone, Beetle, Bee, Swallow, and Snake. Rain was Violet Dawn's mate, Fern Leaf and Beech are sisters, and Dart and Shine (old designs) were not part of Slash's group, but the Cats of the Park, where Arc, Flutter, and Ripple (River Ripple/Riverstar) lived. And also here are Cloud Spots and Dappled Pelt, the first medicine cats of Thunderclan and Riverclan, respectively.

Freak it. *dialtowns your wheeliam.*

Im ain't a designer ight. Lines look kinda nice but I am not going to show you the colors, not ever! I realised my biggest problem with making any designs — is that i just don't care about them(almost always). Yeh sure maybe this ons looks nice and all but will I ever wanna think about it again or draw? NO. What a disappointment. Edit: ok maybe i was to harsh here can i take my own words to myself back?

Oh yeh ARTFIGHT,

yeh yeh yeh, gonna start with the biggest thing aka an attack for me friend and me friendship anniversary YIPEEE which is TODAY(8th july) hey Nyuska. Her attack on me as well is here.

Now in chronological order, 6th July. Another attack on _Germaaaaa_ of course who else could it possibly be? I couldn't stop thinking about this stanley pose so kinda same right? anyway disproportionate man. Funny text photo meme.

This one is for my artfight buddy(?) GooseProsoi!! Had an unstoppable urge to draw a slugcat that day.

7th July, after I made attack on Nyuska made this revenge one!! Can you believe that I got two defences in ONE DAY?? I haven't drawn a second revenge to another person yet, but I'll try to asap. For now this gorgeous tiger goes to MaliciousPrince, design is quite awesome to be frank!

That's it. Byeeeeeeeee I am gonna go be nervous about the design for the next today. Just as I was last two days. Oh.

I usually don't draw unnamed characters like that, I just got excited here.
