he learns from his mistakes, he grows out of his immaturity and hotheadedness, he learns to be selfless and put others before himself. i swear, if you read his pov in book 1 before he got his name changed, you would have no idea that nightheart is the same cat as flamepaw. and that’s a good thing!

i love his friendship with frostpaw. he’s so protective over her and believes in her so fiercely. he would go to the ends of the earth to defend her without thinking twice. he was one of the first few cats to truly see her potential and ever since their journey to the park together he has been taking his job as frostpaw’s number 1 cheerleader incredibly seriously.

and, i know this isn’t a very popular opinion but.. i like his relationship with sunbeam. i think sunbeam especially really helped him grow into the cat he is today. a cat who uses his stubbornness to defend his loved ones. a cat who’s willing to die as long as he can go out doing what he believes is right.

a cat who isn’t ashamed of his heritage anymore and accepts comparisons to firestar with grace. a cat who doesn’t do grand heroic gestures because he wants to live up to his kin, but because he wants to do the right thing. a cat who, while watching his mother and sister care for sunbeam after she lost her mother like she was their kin, is baffled by the idea he ever once felt resentment towards them. a cat who’s proud of his clan and is excited to teach their ways to his own apprentice. a cat who throws himself into the paws of enemy warriors several times to save kits he doesn’t even know, and just about loses his life in the process. a cat who goes to save blazefire from being killed because he knows sunbeam cares deeply for him, instead of standing by and feeling jealous because his mate still cares for a cat she used to have a crush on.
