Just had a random thought, assuming that Feathercloud and Snowpaw live to the Power of Three, how would they communicate with Jayfeather?
Since he can't see the signs for pawspeak and Feather and Snow can't hear Jay. Would they just read his lips?
A very valid question! Especially since Jayfeather is far from the first character to be blind ;)
But in Jayfeather's case, he's a very smart cat with the bonus of having sight in StarClan (if I remember correctly?). He would be able to learn a few signs on his own just by being physically shown how to do them or being taught them in StarClan briefly.
But he still couldn't see them sign. Feathercloud would would just speak like he normally does anyway, but Snowpaw might have some more difficulty remembering to talk over signing, but he would do it just for Jayfeather's sake.
Feathercloud and Snowpaw would be able to lip-read Jayfeather just as they would anyone else (though Snowpaw, again, would have a little more difficulty focusing on that).
It's ingrained in Feathercloud that it's rude to sign when people don't understand...but Brackenfur, Cherryfur, Mistlepaw, and Snowpaw have no such qualms and will definitely pawspeak in front of Jayfeather's face and snicker about it 😂 (not in a rude way, but in a jokingly "talk sh*t" way, that Jayf would immediately recognize and get light-heartedly mad at them for)
