I mean, they're all so alike in attitude; Ivypool is like how Twigbranch is being right now, Sandynose is a real grouch, and I despise Sparkpelt because of how she treats Twigbranch as an apprentice and supported SkyClan leaving
The only thing I can say about Finleap is that they atleast had him apologize at the end and admitted how he acted was wrong. I was really afraid they'd get back together without ever addressing his behavior. And I'm glad Twigbranch finally started being nicer to Flypaw. Their relationship was actually pretty cute towards the end of the book.
If Finleap totally changes, then I'd write it up as him being young and an absolute idiot and not knowing how manipulative he was being. The real relationship here was Twigbranch and Flypaws, tbh. I loved seeing Twigbranch learn how to teach someone who was so drastically different from her.
Characters are definitely more than allowed to make mistakes if they can grow from them. I liked these characters when they were young, and I'm glad they were able to learn and grow further rather than regress in characterization.
Tbh, Finleap isn't making a mistake so much just being a colossal dick. I'm only past the half way point in *Raging Storm* and he constantly guilt trips, bullies and manipulates Twigbranch into having kids with him even though she already told him she wasn't ready. Finleap literally says at one point that he'd only be happy if she had kits with him. At least for me, just because he merely apologizes doesn't erase all that. Plus, he got his way in the end.... hooray....
@@gillianbrown8502 well yes he got his way in the end it was because both twigbranch and finleap wanted it because finleap promised he would wait until she was ready, and although fin apolagizing doesn't change what he did that's the while point of apolagize, your sorry for what your did and you try to learn from your mistake, and that's exactly what finleap did
@@bird347 Still pretty gross behaviour though. One that a sorry might not be able to fix, it really depends how he acts in the future. If he follows through and tries to be better then cool.
FLYYYYPAWWW IMMA FLY TO THE END OF LIFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE XD
At least Finleap learned he was bein' a jerk, though. And apologized maturely. I'm sure to this day Bumblestripe still thinks he's a good guy who did nOTHING WRONG.
But then, in the end, Twigbranch gets pregnant anyway... EDIT: yep, read the end of The Raging Storm. Everyone knows Violetshine was, but it's mentioned that Twigbranch seems "bigger", sooooooo.....
man later in the book he even pulls the ‘if you DONT have kits with me i’ll NEVER feel at HOME here’ guiltcard and then ignores her for days after because she didn’t agree.......they really did put a Nice Guy in wc
Tbh if twigbranch wanted to live forever she should go back to Skyclan, with how forgotten they are the erins will forget she exist Edit: why do I have so many likes
Ah, hello my deputy-wife! Whaddaya need? "Oh hey Bramblestar... I was wondering what we should name those apprentices." Well, Twigpaw should be Twigbranch... "...I'm not gonna question that. Anyway..." FIVE MINUTES LATER Ahah! I know! AT THE MEETING And like a fin... You like to leap! I name you FINLEAP!!!!
Hey.... I, Bramblestar, leader of ThunderClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend her to you as a warrior in her turn. Twigpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend this Clan, even at the cost of your life? Twigpaw: I do. Bramblestar: Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Twigpaw, from this moment you will be known as Twigbranch. StarClan honors your energy and the way you have carefully thought out where you belong. You have proven over and over that your heart is in ThunderClan, but I'm also impressed by the way you care for all the Clans, and for how they function together. Having such a wide view will make you a stronger warrior. I give you the name Twigbranch in memory of the way you came to our Clan as a small, fragile kit, and have grown into a strong warrior, just as a twig grows into a branch. We welcome you as a warrior of ThunderClan. Everyone: Twigbranch! Twigbranch!
LMFAO finleap drove me NUTS during the book but im greatful he realized his mistake and how selfish he was being in the end. I really like his character arc actually.

Finleap: Let snake babies Twigbranch: No but how do you do that Finleap: *Sobs about being lonely* Twigbranch: Ok maybe Finleap: Warrior cats make babies by rubbing against each other in their sleep and then the female gets pregnant Twigbranch: Did I say maybe *laughs*, I M E A N T N O
I could see her having kits (a single litter with a single kit), but not until the age that Squirrelfight did... So if that were to happen at all, Finleap would have a very long wait.
@@lilyharris8954 im pretty sure they they mean more grown up and mature and prouder. But i swear if Twigbranch does become pregnant with Finleap im fucking done with this series
When Twigbranch is a thug.... "Don't you care what I want? Having kits isn't just your choice. And just because I don't want to have kits now doesn't mean I never will.... You're meant to love me. Not the family I might give you. If you won't wait until I'm ready, then I guess you weren't the cat I thought you were."😎 Then she walked away from Finleap using her swag sunglasses. *Beep! Beep! Beep! With airhorns* *AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!* *OH! OH! OH!*
"Finleap's Next Victims" I love that. And meanwhile, Violetshine wasted no time in getting pregante with Tree's babies. Who will be named like their family; Bushkit, Leafkit, and Branchkit.
