#nightroot

some cool ships i like that i wanted to doodle! proud of my featherbrook designs

iiiiiiiiiiii like nightroot

(if the erins retcon nightheart being born at the same time as rootspring pretend it didn’t happen)

idk what they’re planning on doing with nightheart but he reminds me quite a lot of earlier arc rootspring, and i think it would be interesting to give post-bris rootspring a look at he and bris’ relationship from her perspective now that he’s sort of stepped into her shoes with nightheart (in this situation, obviously, not in canon bc the erins would never). now root is the cat perceived as a hero by someone who heavily looks up to him, a cat who’s struggling with how he’s viewed in the clan for his legacy, a cat who’s bitter at his parent for “not understanding”, a cat that he sees himself in. but where rootspring has had time to mature and grow thanks to recent events, nightheart is Stuck in that phase, unable to even graduate into being seen as a fellow adult due to training delays and failed assessments.

Aira: I ship them.
