sand/fire/gray is very much sandstorm saying "yeah this is my husband's boyfriend. i don't like him that much but we hook up sometimes'" and graystripe saying "that's my boyfriend's wife shes pretty cool"
Just a reminder, Stormcloud would stay up all night to be with Sparkpelt, for many days, to comfort her after Larksong’s death. He clearly cared about her.
They honestly make so much sense it hurts that they're not. I think Nightheart having some kind of relationship with Stormcloud as his step-dad, whether positive or negative, would have been a really great move too.
@@foxygrin+ To be fair there's still a chance that it may develop in the books. If I'm correct Nightheart and Sunbeam are Thunderclan cats (again for Nightheart) and it would be healthy for the books to have a good family ties resolution with Nightheart and his family. Stormcloud can even tie it together if the Erins know what they're doing.
I haven't been in the Warroir cats fandom in nearly 3 years and coming back to this video is like getting clubbed over the head trying to remember who the fuck these cats are.
But the problem is when rusty joined Thunderclan longtail was a fully trained young warrior and as for rusty you couldn't exactly call him an apprentice yet since he just turned 6 moons so rusty was still a kit when he joined Thunderclan while longtail was a warrior
@@Limenade8 6 months is not a kit though. he objectively did not join as a kit, because he joined as a ‘paw. and most warrior pairings met while one was an apprentice. i mean, by arc 2 or 3 they’re very very similar age- and experience-wise. this isn’t my ship but making up “problematic” facts that are actively disproven in canon to argue with people is weird.
Being gay is a choice and Firestar should chose to be gay for Longtail or Greystripe or Onestar. Or chose bisexuality. I want him with a lot of other cats.
Alderheart x Puddleshine gets a lot of its fuel from when they have to stay in ShadowClan together. Alderheart putting his life on the line (sort of, I don't really think Tigerheart's threats held much water) and living in an enemy camp to look after his friend is the sort of kickoff point a lot of ships would use. I feel like Alderheart brings a lot of Platonic romance on board in his hypotheticals though and I'm okay with that.
I love Bluestar x Yellowfang, both for the idea of that relationship being a healing experience for them and because it's conceptually funny to me for reasons I can't really articulate. I just love the thought of Bluestar seeing this old kind of smelly cat and being like 👀and immediately deciding to keep her in Thunderclan no matter the cost
Firestar/Onestar gets an additional boost when you remember how Onestar treated his canon love interest. Being infatuated with a kittypet only to turn on his heels and reject them later because he's scared of judgement would be very in-character for him. Oh, the tragedy...
I’m surprised ShrewXSquirrel wasn’t mention, since many people ship them, which I can see why, they’re both were apprentices around the same time and mention to be good friends and because it’s not BrambleSquirrel lol. Also I personally see Hollyleaf being aroace and I will forever think that.
@@Spidermonkey43 YESSS. Instead of Squirrelflight getting together with Bramblestar, she gets with Shrewpaw, who either never got hit by the twoleg monster or got hit, but survived.
"They'll just really unceremoniously kill off the female character who's in the way of their ship." OR what they'll do is character assassinate that female character in order to set up character A with character B. Which I kind of like MORE for some reason? It's just absurdly entertaining but it is also concerning when writers do this option because it can completely turn a fandom AGAINST a character, or it can cause a fandom to COMPLETELY misinterpret a character which happens a LOT.
The second option can become annoying when these two characters are totally in love then suddenly she’s like “I dOnT kNoW iF i LiKe YoU aNyMoRe” out of nowhere (that or they just start arguing for no reason) it can be pretty annoying although sometimes it can be funny how obvious it is that the authors just don’t want to kill the character (bc we can’t have their love interest go through character development noo) so they just… destroy their character I feel like when I become an author I’d have so much fun with that 😂
I don’t get why they can’t just slightly change the relationship and make the canon love interest just a friend lol. The options are death or becoming a terrible person. And it’s not even just canon ships, I’ve seen people do that with members of other popular ships that compete with theirs. Like back when I was into attack on titan I read some Eren x Armin fic on wattpad and they made Levi Armin’s transphobic bully in high school (it was an au where Armin was trans.) And like?? Not only would Levi never do that but also he is like 30 so it’s funny that they put him in high school
I absolutely hate character assassination, and NOTHING in a story pisses me off more than that. Especially when it happens to a character I personally like. If you have to kill the character off or ruin them to make your ship work, then it isn't going to.
I think the Blue Fang ship would have started out with a fight about kits but would be super close. Would be also hilarious thinking about them sasing FireStar till the end of time.
I do really like Rosetail and Snowfur, but personally I’ve always shipped Bluefur and Rosetail. Maybe it’s just because I’m a lesbian, but I read Rosetail as someone secretly, hopelessly in love with Bluefur. I think she’s constantly talking about crushes with Bluefur because she has a crush on her, and she tries to subtly get a feel for Bluefur’s feelings. I think she pushes Bluefur towards Thrushpelt because she’s being self destructive and she believes that Bluefur will never return her feelings. She watches his crush on Bluefur so carefully because she views him as competition, but in her mind he’s already won because she doubts herself so much. When Rosetail finds out that Bluefur is pregnant, her bizarre reaction is something I’ve always seen as the response of a cat who’s just had their heart broken. It’s weird that she just assumes that Thrushpelt is the father, but I think it’s because she was already so intimidated by him and convinced that he was going to win over Bluefur. It’s also very weird that she immediately goes to ‘congratulate’ Thrushpelt without getting permission or even confirmation that her hunch is true. However, I think that it’s her way of saying “you won, I hope you’re happy with her because she loves you and not me.” You could really view Bluerose as either being genuinely unrequited love or just love that Rosetail thinks is unrequited. Personally I do love the angst potential, but I also like to imagine an AU where Rosetail confesses and the two end up together, with Rosetail adopting Bluefur’s kits and helping to raise them.
The fact she's also giving us the "What would Warrior Cats look like in Real life" that some people search for in the entire community... Edit: Broo... That's the most likes I've ever got... Tysm, guys~
The sad thing is that there apparently isn’t a picture of a cat with their face half injured so Moonkitti had to just use a blinking cat for Brightheart.
@@jedi_cat_l4976i get what you mean when you say “it’s sad” considering bright got done dirty even with her picture but at the same time i’m glad there’s no cat who went through any sort of trauma related action to look like her
20:07 poly relationships don't have to be 100% romantic! firestar could love sandstorm and graystripe, gray could like fire, and sand could like fire, but they don't all gotta kiss !!! and also it could be a funny dynamic with sand and grey loving fire but sand and grey themselves absolutely HATING eachother. like a romcom situation
I really hoped squirrelsol would have shown up just bc that ship is absolutely hysterical to me also, for your consideration: greypool/yellowfang/bluestar. the color co-parent polycule. I think the old women should have a weird, difficult-to-properly-label relationship that's just a bit too tender to be entirely platonic. But they are Not Dating. don't even worry about it. Oakheart is also there. He has a (small) crush on Thrushpelt because I think it would be Funny. all of this is happening in starclan in front of a mildly horrified stonefur and an ecstatic mosskit. do you see the vision.
Like consider: the cat who can see ghosts versus the cat who is a ghost for half of his arc. Root feeling insecure about himself but grows in confidence thanks to Shadow boosting him up, which leads to Root becoming more tied to the plot as not only can he see Bramblestar, but Shadow is tied to Bramblestar's fate. Have the two work to solve the mystery together, there's some angst with Shadow being a ghost hakf the time and risking his life, all the while Bristle becomes ace or a lesbian and does all the heavy lifting for the two boys and lives happily as Thunderclan's newest deputy under Squilf. Good day /for fun
genuinely i love love LOVE bluefang because it’s just firehearts moms being all cute together and if it’s too boring for you? oh just add graypool! then it’s a polycule of old lesbian women who are all firehearts moms. i also totally subscribe to the idea that bluepaw and yellowpaw met at a gathering and started dating in secret because they’re from different clans and it was a teenage dating sort of thing where they snuck out to see eachother, but then when she got exiled from shadowclan she was just like “oh shit, lemme just go visit my old girlfriend from 45 years ago” and went to thunderclan territory purposely to see if she could find bluestar again and then they got happily married and never ever died.
I’ve never given two braincells to any warrior cats fan pairing before now, but suddenly this comment is actually making me interested in writing this. I’m not going to, because I literally never finish writing anything, but it’s a really sweet idea lol
watching this video knowing very little about warrior cats is hilarious, i just have to photos of cats and their funky names and i'm like "yeah they dont fit each other, NEXT"
I don’t really do shipping in this fandom but I got called a slur because I think Runingnose and Nightstar are cute together. This fandom is crazy man.
After Bramblestar’s storm I really thought Cherryfall x Stormcloud would happen due to how close the two get plus Bramblestar hints at the two possibly becoming mates and then it never happened
I always thought they were going to hook Frankie aka Stormpaw up with Lilypaw due to both of them losing their siblings that book and helping each other cope with the grief.
taking this opportunity to bring up my Leafpool x Sol au, because Sol was right about everything to do with StarClan and the writers had to make him do morally bad things in order to justify him being a villain. And StarClan mega screwed Leafpool over- They’re also my two favorite characters. I just like ‘em. So yeah, Sol convinces Leafpool to abandon her corrupt religion.
Thats cool! I have an au where leafpool gives up her kits to the twolegplace, cuz squilf refuses to take them/yellowfang doesnt lie about her being barren. sol sees it and is reminded of how he was abandoned to twolegs and he decides to take them in. Basically its an evil 3 au
Jayfeather is definitely on the aromantic spectrum in my eyes but I’m not sure he’s 100% aromantic (probably grayromantic) because of his time-travel relationship with Half Moon
@@minecraftstar_ I have decided to either completely ignore Half Moon or just say Jayfeather has a hard time diferentiating between romantic like and platonic like. I have trouble with it so I never thought I was aro until recently when I realized everything I felt was platonic.
@@minecraftstar_ My headcanon is that Half Moon is his comp-allo crush because she is unattainable on like, 3 different levels (he's a medicine cat, time travel, she was actually dating his past life not him). So he tells himself that he's in love with her 'cause he thinks she's cool and there isn't the risk of it working out and him actually having to /act/ on any feelings.
One of my favourites is BlueRose. I just love the idea that the reason Rosetail is so insistent on Bluestsr and Thrushpelt is because she’s in love with her. I love disaster lesbians.
"The answer is simple: Firestar becomes bi on the spot" had me laughing so hard, it's very true. Also I loved all the silly stock photos, it reminds me of when I was like 10-11 and searching for picture to fit of my warrior cats rp OCs LMAO. Edit: I'd love to see another video of this sometime if you feel up to it! Very entertaining. Also I'm all for poly ships but I feel like most the ones we saw here weren't great lmao like... greystripe... crowfeather... I don't have any warrior cats ships but I kind of hope so see some fun poly ones eventually!
16:38 moonkitti says aro rights (no but seriously people should make more platonic relationships that are extremely close and important, just in general)
u summed up my thoughts on squirrelcrow very well. in my eyes they just would not get along. especially dont like it when brought up as an alternative to bramblesquirrel. like crow would Not be that amazing of an alternative 😭 he has a looottt of issues to work through. if squilf were to date anyone else at all id want it to be a happy and very healthy relationship. also LET HER DATE WOMEN INSTEAD
A rare-pair(not sure how rare it is) i have is purdy x midnight, but not as a romantic ship, i think that they got together because they liked hanging out with eachother and just being with eachother made them both happy, a silly old couple that could talk to eachother for hours but only eachother because only they can stand listening to one another. the platonic old couple that definitely drive kits to boredom with how much they talk(old couples are the best kinda ships, and if its a platonic ship it makes it infinitely better)
My favorite ship is GrayRiver - River Ripple (Riverstar) and Gray Wing. Do these cats only appear in the less-than-well-written prequel series? Yes. Do I still love them and the ship to death anyway? Also yes.
Why is it than everyone LOVES Dawn of the Clans? The second half of that series completely fell off and I feel like it’s like the Star Wars Prequels, it’s different and everyone is “nostalgic” over it.
@@Spidermonkey43I think it’s just because we’ve been looking at the Clans for 4 main series before that, so different groups, even though they _do_ become the Clans in the end, is kind of relieving
I love Cinder X Holly but Holly being at least aromantic (Maybe aroace) Is heavily implied. I cant remember which book but I remember a line where Holly says she doesn't want to be in a romantic relationship, or something along those lines.
My own crackship is Tigerclaw X time traveler Darktail escaping death and finding old Thunderclan. Both idiots just staring at eachother like, "uh, muscle man" and they start singing opera to eachother.
Bluestar x Yellowfang is one of my favorite ships despite lacking context. Both being mentally unstable, I feel like Yellowfang would help Bluestar off-camera and if i'm remembering right on-camera but I haven't read those books in awhile. I still love the concept since Yellowfang is my second favorite cat other than Jayfeather.
I'm probably one of the few who ship Mapleshade/Myler and if it wasn't for Mapleshade rejecting his friendship due to him being a kittypet, it would have been a much healthier relationship than any Appledusk ship
@@shelbcake Er- she was also clingy to Appledusk? And no, being clingy to your partner isn’t a good thing, especially if she believes that because she had Apple’s kits, he can’t and will never leave her and will always defend her, and that he’s only hers and hers forever. Being obsessed/clingy to someone is never a good sign, especially if you don’t allow anyone to come near them or interact with them.
@@Littlefox1213 … I don't recall Mapleshade being particularly clingy or obsessive towards Appledusk in her novella? I mean she had the "if I can't have him you can't either" but it reads more like "I suffered alot of shit so you are going to suffer too". I don't think we get a whole lot of insight on what Apple and Mapple were like as a couple because it's largely unimportant to the tragedic nature of the story.
as a STERN crowfeather ship hater (love the character, hate him in relationships) im glad to see someone else go "maybe squirrelcrow isnt good for squirrelflight" because shes had too much of her life dedicated to what the toms want
I'm not particularly a SandxFirexGray shipper but I can understand it as someone in a throuple that's just me and two absolute clowns one being the person that enables and makes the other worse, you get used to it and start loving to watch them stay up all night coming up with different song parodies where the main joke is a 2012 YTP meme, that's what SandxFirexGray is and I've seen it I live in it so it's real
6:35 No one: Not a single soul: Moonkitti: "Crowfeather with yellow eyes" Edit: Just noticed, She uses the Yellow eyes pictures everywhere for him... 😅
In TNP he is pretty much always mentioned having yellow eyes except for like...three times (2 times saying they are blue and 1 time they aay they are green). He starts having blue eyes in PoT
Wasn't about to find pictures of solid black cats with blue eyes without Photoshop or stealing from some obscure page about cats that are born without skulls if you breed two of them together
About sand x fire x grey, I feel like it wouldn't work because sandstorm is the cat who needs constant reassuring and affection to fight back her fear of love fading. It's hard to explain but I feel like Graystripe couldn't be able to do that(not like Firestar actually does but at least sandstorm does sort of trust him as a friend too) and dating 2 catss in general will be stressful for her assuming she starts fretting about whether they both will leave her out or something
@@lindseylindsey9200 I think it's pretty funny, and knowing that Thistleclaw did some bad stuff, Rosetail could just go "Hey" to Snowfur. And also considering that Thistleclaw is in the Dark Forest, they just go share their grief together.
lolol I can see it now ShadowSight: So BristleFrost died along Rootspring: Yeah ShadowSight: Along with her ghost Rootspring: Yeah ShadowSight: So whatcha doing tonight... wanna hunt Rootspring: Aren't you a medicine cat ShadowSight: ....Wanna gather herbs, we could about depression.
An interesting format. And good thing you mentioned that it's okay not to like a ship/couple somebody likes and the other way around. Sometimes people really start fights over someone's opinion as if they care to not prove their point but change this opinion, eh. Anyways, it was nice to find out how I felt about these couples, too, cuz I've always been more of a person to criticise existing couples, once I thought about who I could ship I could barely come up with more than... three?😅 So outta these ones I'd say I like and/or just interested in are: Onestar and Firestar. Sparkpelt and Stormcloud a little bit. Shadowsight and Rootspring. Which was a surprise to me. As well Firestar and Longtail. (Why is Ivypool and Fernsong a ship though? With Brightheart and Cloudtail if these are canon?) It was interesting to listen to your monologue, too, even if I often don't agree with your opinion.
The exact meaning of "ship" depends on which circles of fandom you're in, but for a lot of people shipping is purely referring to the couple, not implying the canonicity. Canon ships are ships just the same.
I NEED to know your thoughts on Tawnypelt x SquirrelFlight, and Jayfeather x Poppyfrost Especially the former, I love the idea of Squilf just finding out Bramble's sister is a much nicer person who's also had mate/clan/kid dying issues (to a much lesser extent with tawny on mate problems but still) and just meeting up with her in the middle of the night so she can give tawny a little kiss anyways tawnysquirrel rights do you see my vision
My favorite which I haven’t found anything on is just FireGray (Fireheart and Graystripe) Fireheart’s words here: Actually copy pasted from the books “But no cat could feel more strongly for Graystripe than Fireheart had done, for four long seasons.”
I think Bumble and Turtle Tail would work better if they properly supported each other in canon. When Bumble sought a place to stay after running from Tom, Turtle Tail jumped right on the bandwagon of “nope, you can’t stay here, you’re annoying and worthless to us, have you considered just going back to Tom?” It’s one of those ships that falls apart the second you reread the books.
Am I the only person who thinks One-eye the elder from the 1st series when I hear that name? Like I was confused for a hot minute when moonkitti was talking abt the Purdy x One Eye ship cuz I forgot the rude dawn of the clan cat was also named that
My one ship is from way back when and it was Jayfeather and Kestrelflight - I’ll never forget the time Jayfeather appeared in his dream and he’s completely friendly and doesn’t think it’s weird that he’s there.
Have i not consumed any warriors media in like, 4 years? Yes Did i not recognize almost all of the new gen cats? Yes Did i watch this anyway? Yes, thank you yt algorithm.
People always forget Redtail is canonically tigerstar’s uncle help😭 Leopardfoot (tiger’s mum) is redtail’s older sister from a different litter Also no shade to moon for not knowing this we all know thunderclan’s lineage is a mess
I honestly really like LeafPool x Mothwing for to different reasons 1. I *TRULY* think that Crowfeather was most likely just as obsessive and toxic to Little Leafpool as BrambleStar is to SquirrelFlight. I just think he was to pushy to her (ex: one scene of the books is where Leafpool is just trying to get back to her camp, and all of a sudden, Crowfeather starts yelling at her for “not being at the meeting place” WHEN HE CLEARLY KNEW IT SHE WAS HAVING HER MEETING AT THE MOONPOOL!) 2. I feel like Leafpool is such a good support system for Mothwing after what Hawkfrost did, also Leafpool can act like a safe guard for Mothwing unknowingly just because she can listen wholeheartedly to her and her troubles. PLUS she didn’t tell *anyone* that Mothwing didn’t have medicine cat dreams Case closed >:) (Also please note that I’m not hating on CrowPool shippers, I’m just stating my opinion about MothPool :)
Off topic from Mothpool, but what is it with the sister getting paired up with the worst mate possible- And now on the topic of Mothpool, I love the second point, Leaf just being a support system for Moth is just adorable and I love it.
@@viperfangofrc5496 You know what? Forget about Crowpool, Mothpool is the new canon, they’re adorable and wholesome. And forget about Brambleflight… actually I don’t know who Squirrelflight should be with instead… ANYONE THAT ISN’T BRAMBLESTAR, ASHFUR AND CROWFEATHER! Or stay single!
Hey moon ( I'm this late I have raging ADHD bear with me folks) Are you pro LGBTQ? Lots of queer ships made me happy so I was just wondering! (Been watching ya for.. What.. 5-6 years now? Always was curious!)
I love Russetfur and Sasha...! I see it as an angst ship because Russetfur secretly likes Sasha but Sasha was already with Tigerstar😔 In that one scene in Sasha's manga where Russetfur gave Sasha food, I'd imagine she could have confessed but she didn't...
I am a giant Brambeberry x Echomist shipper. Crookedkit deserves a stable parent relatioship. His moms are dating. Also yes I know I have a problem with making every medicine cat gay. Idc.
pleased to spot another Brambleberry and Echomist enjoyer! Adding Shellheart to the mix after breaking up with Rainflower is a cute thought as well, but that's just my opinion! Absolutely adore these two together ❤
I see SandxFirexGray with Fire as the poly person. Cause well, as you said, if someone had told him "Well, Sandstorm loves you, and Graystripe does as well" he'd just be like "Ok.." and set up a relationship with both. Gray and Sand would both equally love him but see each other only as friends and also sometimes be very annoying
@@leadkidfromross exactly. I didn’t think it sounded homophobic at all. I think it’s a lifestyle all its own, and I personally just don’t like it on any level. Monogamy is a good thing! 😊
