I liked him in alitm too!

I think he’d be both sad and glad to see bristlefrost show up at the duplex - sad that she died in the dark forest, but happy to get to see her again! she apologizes for not stopping him from falling in the water, he tells her she has nothing to be sorry for and thanks her for giving him hope and a reason to run instead of giving up. a bittersweet moment for them both.

his “sitcom”/show role would be that upbeat and friendly guy who’s secretly haunted by his past.

the two of them are friends! if any former dark forest cats try to give her trouble, he backs her up and tells them off. he dances around telling her how he died the first time.

but one day/night/time is weird there, they’re hanging out, looking out into nothingness out the window and a light goes off in her head. she’s heard the name redwillow before, before she met him in the dark forest. she’s heard it called out over a silent crowd. she remembers blackstar listing the casualties of the great battle. but how did he end up in the dark forest if he’d died protecting the clans from it?

when he confesses that he actually fought on the side of the dark forest, she runs. she doesn’t want to believe that there’d been something about her close friend she didn’t know, and that it was something so awful.

she warms back up to him slowly. he tells her that he knew her mother. she tells him that it was blackstar who read out his name every gathering. he’s too shocked to speak -- on earth, his last act was telling blackstar it was his time to die. he doesn’t know how to process the fact that the one who killed him was also the one keeping his name alive.
