Because I drag warriors into everything.
most of it is utterly pointless
[2:28:55 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Bluestar effectively kills one of her own children because of a prophecy from an unreliable drug addict
[2:29:08 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and then said dead child gives her a life of TRUST
[2:29:10 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and I lose it
[2:29:26 PM] Nova (Cloudie): because what
[2:29:42 PM] Shinko: Also according to WoG Thistleclaw was in Starclan with Snowfur, but Bluestar kicked him out after she died
[2:29:53 PM] Shinko: even though he didn't actually do ANYTHING
[2:30:13 PM] Shinko: they were afraid of what he MIGHT do
[2:30:18 PM] Shinko: which came to nothing
[2:30:28 PM] Nova (Cloudie): I heard that too
[2:30:29 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: But... Starclan...
[2:30:42 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Don't get me started on how much I hate StarClan
[2:30:51 PM] Nova (Cloudie): we'll be here for about a week
[2:31:07 PM | Edited 2:31:27 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: why would ghosts kick out their members? I got as far as the second series where they got to the valley before I ran out of the books available at work
[2:31:42 PM] Shinko: ahaha
[2:31:43 PM] Nova (Cloudie): thank whatever you believe in that you did
[2:31:43 PM] Shinko: well
[2:31:47 PM] Shinko: they added a kitty hell
[2:31:52 PM] Shinko: called the Dark Forest
[2:31:53 PM] Nova (Cloudie): first series? Had its flaws, but overall okay
[2:31:59 PM] Nova (Cloudie): second series? Wtf
[2:32:03 PM] Shinko: and bad cats don't get to go to StarClan
[2:32:03 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Third series? I give up on everything
[2:32:06 PM] Shinko: they go to the Dark Forest
[2:32:21 PM] Nova (Cloudie): In which you obtain glowing eyeballs and the power to appear on earth
[2:32:30 PM] Nova (Cloudie): effectively making you better than StarClan
[2:32:32 PM] Nova (Cloudie): which also has fleas
[2:32:53 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: ....Okay, just what
[2:32:54 PM] Nova (Cloudie): No, seriously
[2:32:55 PM] Shinko: Also death has become entirely meaningmless in the series
[2:33:01 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Yellowfang has fleas in StarClan
[2:33:04 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and yes it has
[2:33:09 PM] Shinko: because StarClan is constantly just stopping by to say hi
[2:33:11 PM] Nova (Cloudie): PEOPLE DON'T STAY DEAD
[2:33:17 PM] Nova (Cloudie): or they do
[2:33:25 PM] Nova (Cloudie): but they're the most annoying dead people ever
[2:33:30 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: Like Tiger?
[2:33:37 PM] Shinko: among others
[2:33:38 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Spottedleaf
[2:33:42 PM] Nova (Cloudie): I really loathe Spottedleaf
[2:33:45 PM] Nova (Cloudie): xD
[2:33:46 PM] Shinko: god yes
[2:33:47 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: Oh fun. Not picking that series up again
[2:33:54 PM] Shinko: she was a minor character who was alive in ONE book
[2:33:55 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Do you share my loathing Shinko? xD
[2:33:58 PM] Shinko: then died
[2:33:59 PM] Nova (Cloudie): I KNOW
[2:34:00 PM] Shinko: LET HER BE DEAD
[2:34:04 PM] Nova (Cloudie): AND WHO DID WHAT EXACTLY
[2:34:07 PM] Nova (Cloudie): BESIDES BE A SHALLOW LOVE INTEREST
[2:34:18 PM] Shinko: and honestly I didn't even see the love interest thing
[2:34:20 PM] Shinko: it was poorly developed
[2:34:21 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Neither did I
[2:34:27 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: I always saw her as a guilt trip
[2:34:30 PM] Nova (Cloudie): It was completely informed
[2:34:35 PM] Nova (Cloudie): there was nothing actually there
[2:34:39 PM] Shinko: "I was in love with her!"
[2:34:43 PM] Shinko: ...you were?
[2:34:45 PM] Shinko: when was this?
[2:34:47 PM] Nova (Cloudie): "Because she is pretty and smells good."
[2:34:50 PM] Nova (Cloudie): no seriously
[2:34:56 PM] Nova (Cloudie): that was the whole attraction
[2:35:01 PM] Shinko: pretty much
[2:35:09 PM] Nova (Cloudie): COUGHTwilightCOUGH
[2:35:39 PM] Shinko: and then in Firestar's Quest there is this completely irrational subplot where Sandstorm gets jealous of Spottedleaf's ghost because she won't freaking stay in kitty heaven
[2:35:49 PM] Shinko: it almost feels tongue in cheek
[2:36:03 PM] Shinko: like the authors are lampshading how Spottedleaf keeps coming back
[2:36:34 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Firestar's Quest is next on the list
[2:36:45 PM] Shinko: It was... okay
[2:36:49 PM] Shinko: pointless
[2:36:51 PM] Shinko: but okay
[2:36:54 PM] Nova (Cloudie): because I'm almost done with this book that in itself could kill a cat when dropped from the right height
[2:37:02 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Yeah...
[2:37:11 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and then SkyClan's Destiny came out
[2:37:19 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and my contempt for the Erins keeps growing
[2:37:21 PM] Nova (Cloudie): it's like
[2:37:23 PM] Shinko: |D
[2:37:27 PM] Shinko: it's a cash cow
[2:37:27 PM] Nova (Cloudie): you created a decent concept
[2:37:31 PM] Nova (Cloudie): but your characters are flat
[2:37:35 PM] Nova (Cloudie): your plots are terrible
[2:37:43 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and you did no research on biology whatsoever
[2:37:56 PM] Shinko: the first series of six was alright, I could suspend my disbelief for it
[2:38:05 PM] Shinko: but past that it just kept getting more and more stupid
[2:38:09 PM] Nova (Cloudie): My teenage cohorts and I know more about realistic cat behavior for god's sake
[2:38:15 PM] Nova (Cloudie): I lost it when the powers were introduced
[2:38:18 PM] Nova (Cloudie): that was the end for me
[2:38:39 PM] Shinko: I think my breaking point was book two of series two
[2:38:50 PM] Shinko: Stormfur: I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU BROOK!
[2:38:53 PM] Shinko: ...wat
[2:39:00 PM] Shinko: who are these mountain cats and why do I care
[2:39:04 PM] Nova (Cloudie): You don't
[2:39:06 PM] Shinko: PLOT
[2:39:07 PM] Shinko: DERAILING
[2:39:10 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Moonrise was a complete waste of time
[2:39:15 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Also
[2:39:20 PM] Kristen {Kishan} Dragon292: Think it's a bad sign I couldn't keep the twins straight the entire time?
[2:39:21 PM] Nova (Cloudie): pumas generally don't eat smaller cats
[2:39:30 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Nope
[2:39:36 PM] Nova (Cloudie): because seriously why do we care
[2:39:44 PM] Nova (Cloudie): the only character in series two I liked was Crowpaw
[2:39:51 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and then he turned into Crowfeather
[2:39:53 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and became an idiot
[2:40:03 PM] Shinko: his relationship with Leafpool came right the **** out of nowhere
[2:40:05 PM] Shinko: like
[2:40:06 PM] Shinko: not foreshadowed
[2:40:08 PM] Shinko: at all
[2:40:09 PM] Nova (Cloudie): PLOT DEVICE
[2:40:09 PM | Edited 2:40:14 PM] Shinko: made no **** sense
[2:40:14 PM] Nova (Cloudie): magic plot device
[2:40:24 PM] Nova (Cloudie): because how else will the speshul cats be speshul enough
[2:40:51 PM] Shinko: XD
[2:41:06 PM] Nova (Cloudie): and then they killed Ashfur
[2:41:15 PM] Nova (Cloudie): because Hollyleaf is mentally unstable
[2:41:21 PM] Shinko: that entire subplot with Ashfur was assinine
[2:41:28 PM] Nova (Cloudie): It didn't make a lick of sense
[2:41:38 PM] Shinko: Ashfur was a loyal, brave kitten in the first series
[2:41:44 PM] Nova (Cloudie): 'ohey you rejected me so Imma kill yer dad and children trolololol"
[2:42:04 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Exactly, and then he went straight to cliche hell
[2:42:35 PM | Edited 2:42:43 PM] Shinko: Also I kind of think Greystripe should have stayed dead
[2:42:42 PM] Nova (Cloudie): YES
[2:42:47 PM] Nova (Cloudie): also Millie
[2:42:58 PM] Nova (Cloudie): What the cuss is even her purpose
[2:43:09 PM] Shinko: replacement goldfish for Millie I guess
[2:43:10 PM] Nova (Cloudie): are you telling me he couldn't have made that journey on his own
[2:43:16 PM] Shinko: for Silverstream I mean
[2:43:24 PM] Julia deadsquierl (codie): I think we can all agree that the one good thing that came out of the series are all the youtube music videos
[2:43:32 PM] Julia deadsquierl (codie): and by good thing i mean a thing to stay up till 3 in the morning laughing hysterically at
[2:43:36 PM] Nova (Cloudie): ^
[2:43:39 PM] Shinko: Grey had no kittens now that Feather was dead and Storm with the mountain cats
[2:43:47 PM] Shinko: so he needed something to obsess over stupidly
[2:43:58 PM] Nova (Cloudie): that actually makes perfect sense
[2:44:26 PM | Edited 2:44:36 PM] Nova (Cloudie): so he brought malkin with him
[2:44:33 PM] Shinko: Greystripe's defining characteristic is being loyal
[2:44:42 PM] Shinko: loyal to firestar, to silverstream, to his kittens
[2:44:49 PM] Shinko: and he obsesseses
I love my friends in all the circles of the internet I move in. =D
most of it is utterly pointless
[2:28:55 PM] Nova (Cloudie): Bluestar effectively kills one of her own children because of a prophecy from an unreliable drug addict
