Grasspelt is a cat who asks Bunblestripe about how Briarlight is doing in fading echos since he hadnt seen her in moons at a gathering because she crushed her spine from a falling tree,btw. Also Willow and Holly dont have a huge age gap,less than a year(probably a 6-8 month age gap) and they do know each other well actually since Hollyleaf was a medicine cat before warrior she and Willow were friends and Hollyleaf also travelled to RiverClan during Dark River to make sure Willowshine was alright. Plus Hollyleaf is not canonically asexual-
oh, i don't remember reading much of arc three, i was kind of zoned out during the whole thing, thank you for clearing that up because i was very confused, also, yes, hollyleaf is canonically asexual. i don't remember if it was vicky or kate, but one of them said on the erin hunter chats that hollyleaf was never interested in having a mate or kits, which implies that she is asexual
