Turtlepaw analyses Ivypool x Blossomfall
*Warning: Spoilers for Omen of the Stars are ahead! If you don’t want spoilers, then please don’t read this article!*
Hey! I’m Turtlepaw, and today I’m going to be talking about why I ship Ivypool and Blossomfall!
Blossomfall and Ivypool could totally work as a couple, because they actually have quite a few things in common!
For starters, Ivypool and Blossomfall both know what it’s like to feel rejected. Blossomfall felt upset because Millie payed so much attention to Briarlight, and hardly any to her. This is understandable, because it’s only human (and cat!) nature to want your parent to pay attention to you.
Ivypool knows what being ignored is like, too. She felt like everyone loved and payed attention to Dovewing, but nobody cared about her that way. This is why Ivypool started training in the Place Of No Stars- Hawkfrost and the other Dark Forest cats gave her the attention and praise she desired.
Blossomfall and Ivypool both have experienced jealousy of a sibling. They have both felt ignored, and upset. And they both did some things to deal with these feelings that weren’t exactly the best. They’re able to relate to each other. As mates, they could easily comfort each other, because they know better than anyone what the other cat went through.
Now, Blossomfall and Ivypool are actually enemies for the first few books of Omen of the Stars. Blossomfall bullies Ivypool, and the two are generally enemies.
But once they get lost in the tunnels together, you can see that something has changed: Blossomfall is nicer to Ivypool. Ivypool sympathizes with Blossomfall, realizing all she’s been through.
They started out enemies, but ended up casual friends. This is a common plot point in Warriors, and often results in the two cats becoming mates. So why not ship Ivypool and Blossomfall? They can relate to each other because they’ve been through similar experiences, and their relationship in general had good development!
Ivypool and Blossomfall have good chemistry, which is a crucial part of a good ship! Chemistry is all about the building blocks of a romance, and IvyBlossom is a ship with great chemistry! Yes, they started out enemies. But by the end of Omen of the Stars? By then, Ivypool and Blossomfall are totally shippable! I know I ship them! 😉
IvyBlossom has always been one of my favorite non-canon Warriors ships. The moment I discovered this ship, I absolutely adored it! It’s a beautiful ship, and I love it!
And maybe after reading this article, you love it too- or at least understand why I ship it. 😉
IvyBlossom forever!
See you next time!

Amazing article! It’s written well and you analyzed them very nicely!
Ivy x Blossom is great! (Also, the article picture is so cute <33)
10000% agree! They’re so underrated and are my favorite Warriors ship ever
Honestly feel like Ivypool deserves quite a bit better than Blossomfall and not a fan of the bullying that just suddenly gets kinda resolved but I feel like fanfiction authors have done a good job making this ship a better, more healthy one which is valid. There’s a lot of potential in it, though I just really don’t like Blossomfall.
huh
well then
good ship
That’s a cute ship!
Good article, but I am still meh. Their only real interaction was in the tunnel where blossomfall admitted to hating her sister for her MOTHER being horrible. Blossomfall doesn’t deserve someone as amazing as ivypool.
Ivypool is a bad character. Blossomfall on the other hand is a likable character!
I ship Ivypool with no one best single
i’ve never actually thought to ship them but now that i think about it, you brought up great points! very nice article!
ugh they aren’t a ship I only see book ships more ore less ivypool saw her as a friend and blossomfall really has no intrest in romance.
BTW just because a ship isn’t canon doesn’t mean someone can’t ship them! 🙂 I’ve always been interested in non-canon ships 😀
Piragua Guy is awesome
I personally ADORE this ship. Yes, they totally get each other, and honestly the only reason they ever were ‘enemies’ in the first place was likely BECAUSE they were so similar with one another. Their personalities clashed, but were ultimately VERY alike. IvyBlossom forever x3
so true!! I love me some cat lesbians
i like them together but, one thing wrong with it, they barely ever talk to each other! They’re a really toxic ship, from what I’ve learned in Fading Echoes, Blossomfall was like a bully to Ivypool at first. but i get it if you ship them, no hate.
Sandstorm bullied Firestar when they were apprentices/‘paws
My second fave gay/lesbian ship after poly SorrelXLeafXMoth <3
