I love this AU! I feel that Smudge is often times forgotten after a couple of books, and I've seen lots of AU's of him being evil, joining Tiny, being jealous of Rusty, or just... Lonely and depressed. I love that this shakes it up where he still has his own story that blends well with canon events, without him turning evil, annoying or just being super sad. He has his own adventure at his own pace and gets to ask himself what he truly wants in life, rather than taking the word of others and letting it scare him, like believing the forest was full of cats that would eat him, or that his friend abandoned him. That said I was wondering to myself why I had never seen this and how old it was, and I realized it was posted on my bday earlier this year and that the KZfaq algorithm failed me. Curse you, KZfaq, for hiding a wonderful video with pretty art!

I really appreciate your comment <3 I'm happy you noticed those lore details! The truth is that I have been working on this AU for quite some time, putting the greatest effort into not making a big change to Smudge's personality and that due to the very different attitude he takes, he does not seem like a completely different character. I also wanted him to both alter canon events by his presence (Maybe at some point I'll make videos showing how the secondary characters were affected), but in turn have Smudge be affected by them.

@@SmudgeWC Well I'd love to see it if you make and release it! From memory (It's been many, many years since I read a book with Smudge in it, lol.) he was a really sweet character, honestly worried about his friend's choice to live with the wild cats. I remember him always being excited when Fireheart rolled around, and it's not that he wasn't supportive, it just seems like he had that "Are you SURE?" approach just because he didn't want Rusty/Fireheart to hurt. I love this timid yet careful approach as he tries to do what's right. ;3; It's a pretty big contrast to Fireheart who was always a bit gung-ho for adventure and fearless. They're both doing similar things but in their own ways. (I loved the detail with Dustpaw too, considering he and Firepaw REALLY didn't get along, lol.)

AHH- UR ART STYLE IS BEAUTIFUL! I’VE SEEN A FEW OF UR ANIMATIONS, UR VERY UNDERRATED! NEW SUB! I hope I’m not bothering you but I just had to ask 😭 Could you consider applying for my Believer map? I also wanted to let you know that, if your interested but busy, you don’t have to start straight away! I’ll understand if your not! Thanks <3

Thank you very much for your comment! I'm glad to know that people like my AU! Regarding the MAP, I don't know, I have no experience in how it works and I'm always busy (for that reason I don't upload content very often). Even so, perhaps in the future I will begin to participate in projects of this fandom, so if by then we both have the opportunity I would love to work with you and other incredible artists who have also proposed me to work on a MAP <3

Idk why but I find it kinda funny that Spotpaw (Smudge) sees Spottedleaf as a mother while firepaw has a crush on her (that isn’t one sided and she feels the same way)

I honestly still don't understand how Spotwhatever (I DON'T KNOW HIS WARRIOR NAME 😭😭) is part of the prophecy. I mean, Firestar saved Shadowclan, Windclan, Thunderclan, and a lot of cats... But Spotwhatever doesn't seem to do much here, besides killing Scourge here (I think), but I think Firestar would be able to handle it alone just fine, I mean, Scourge only had two lives while he had NINE, so in theory it wouldn't be much of a problem, so I'm very curious to see what the prophecy has in store for him

Great work!! This PMV is very well put together, I do have a few questions related to the AU. 1. So, does Firepaw (Rusty) come with Smudge (Spotpaw) to Thunderclan? Or is Smudge replacing Rusty in this situation? 2. Are they both apart of the prophecy and if so, what roles do they play in it? Does Firepaw still become leader? 3. Is Firepaw an antagonist? I'm asking because his face seemed to be blackened around 0:33. Or is that just Smudge feeling like Firepaw wouldn't understand, or doesn't care what he's going through? (And yes, for that one commenter, I did see the description explaining this AU, I just didn't understand it all that much)
@SmudgeWCАй бұрын
1- Smudge and Rusty go to Thunderclan together 2-They are both part of the prophecy, and yes, Fireheart becomes the leader 3- It is the second option, because as time went by they began to distance themselves, Smudge began to feel many negative emotions towards Firepaw/heart (envy, jealousy,) and he no longer knew anything about him due to the lack of communication, you could say that Fire became a stranger in Smudge's eyes

I bet when Fireheart and Graystripe kicked out Brokenstar and rescued Cinder, Thorn, Bracken and Bright and were named warriors earlier, Spotpaw must have been *really* jealous
