Hi!! It’s me TansyBranch.
I haven’t done an article for a while but here one is!

:SPOILER ALERT:

So. LeafStar is really interesting in my opinion and she’s had a lot of weird, sad, crazy, happy things go on in her life. (the list goes on and on) So today I’m gonna analyze her life and say a few interesting things…. Like the naming problem. (If yk, yk.)

Firstly, what the scourge is going on with Sharpclaw? First she is like chilling with him and they were working together pretty well but then he started like full on undermining her. Changing her ideas and going behind her back with things that were important to her and some other clan members. I don’t know, maybe they had a fight off book or something?? Tell me in the comments if you think you know.

Another thing I recently found out. Leafpool is named after her?? Like I get that Leafstar had a nice impact on SandStorm and Firestar when they knew her but there were so many other cats they could have named her after… Spottedleaf? (that might have made sandstorm sad hehe) or GrayStripe? Redtail? Lionheart? Bit sad, I just thought.

Second. Isn’t it kind of Leafstars fault that Ravenpaw died….? Leafstar came to Barley and Ravenpaw for help with an outsiders problem and Ravenpaw told them some useful solutions and he also even ended up helping them fight. In the end died during it. She gave him a nice farewell and all but why couldn’t you just deal with your own problems lady??

Lastly,
The much spoken of Naming problem.
Being a leader is big enough responsibility as it is along with all the decision making, fights, solving disputes, organizing things and the probably most fun thing is giving names to people! You get to decide what this person calls themselves for nearly half their lives and they can’t say no! (side eye to daisy)

Leafstar really can’t come up with good names, can she?
Pidgeonfoot? Did he evolve from a pigeon or something? Maybe he has a weird shaped nose..
Gravelnose? Maybe there’s some stones stuck in it?
Beetlepaw… I guess this is kind of his mothers fault, what did you child do to deserve this?
Finally….*DRUMROLLLL*

TURTLECRAWL?
I think thats all.

Goodbyeeee :>

      Leafpool was named after Leafstar, but in Firestars eye it was Spottedleaf.

  • “You get to decide what this person calls themselves for nearly half their lives and they can’t say no! (side eye to daisy),”

    No kidding!! I can’t imagine joining a clan and being named something like- Turtlecrawl or Pigeonfoot. I’d just feel insulted. </3

    Good article, but I disagree, Leafpool got named after Leafstar, it was a noble choice since shes a great leader. And those names aren’t even that bad! They’re normal warrior names…not sure what your on about. And Ravenpaw decided himself he wanted to help, he saw Skyclan suffering with the kittypets and decided to help with Barley, he taught them a few things but in the end, he decided to fight, not Leafstar, she was even reluctant about him near her clanmates at first! And Sharpclaw has nothing to do with her being a bad leader… he started undermining her because she seemed weak, after all being in despair with kits and and slightly older age isn’t great! Do respect your opinion though.
