LONGTAIL! MY GUY! ive been meaning to make him a video for years and finally got a song i like for him! Here he is! ~ Song: Call Them Brothers by Regina Spektor (ft. Only Son)
i feel like people dont talk about longtail and his relationships with tigerstar and darkstripe. they were his FRIENDS, and for him to find out that they were responsible for so much death and pain and misery must have destroyed him. god and the ENDING, firestar comforting longtail as he grieves his fallen friends. this is absolutely gorgeous, and the song is perfect for them.
I love how you drew Tigerstar’s expression as Scourge killed him. There’s absolutely no way he would’ve been able to keep a mean face during that, so it’s nice to see someone draw him looking weaker. Weaker than he’d ever been in front of these cats, Longtail must’ve been shocked to see his seemingly invincible childhood friend baring his soul so openly, both figuratively and literally
there was such a huge opportunity missed by just retiring Longtail to the elders den. He was probably one of the most complex characters in TPB and was way too underexplored. A previous henchman of Tigerclaw of sorts that had a moral compass. I remember a scene where the forest is flooded and Firestar falls into the water and is struggling to get out while Tigerclaw doesn't save him, Longtail does and is shocked by Tigerclaws hesitance to do anything.
Longtail is super underrated. Like he was obviously a jerk in the beginning, but what can you expect from someone who's a member of tigerstar's inner circle. But unlike darkstripe, who's willing to poison his own sister, Longtail remains loyal to Thunderclan, and the final battle against Tigerstar's dark forest is perhaps his true redemption, fighting against his former friends in the ultimate battle between good and evil. Oh, and fun fact, all three of these boys were cousins, their parents were all litter mates.
If you're not already familiar with the Longtail "Mr. Fear" zombie AU map that's currently running, I think you'd enjoy it. I've been looking forward to it since I first saw the call
I shed a tear. You always approach these books with such a deep analysis, finding small details that many people overlook, and also have a good musical taste.
YES LONGTAIL!! He’s one of the most interesting characters. His friends became evil, and I’m sure most cats in Thunderclan distrusted him for who he associated with :((( at least he had a nice life retiring with Mousefur and Purdy
I love how you captured Longtail's guilt + betrayal about his involvement with Darktail and Tigerstar! (Also was it intentional to give Firestar and Longtail similar foreleg markings or am I looking too much into it?)
I'm absolutely fell in love with this🥲 That you put the Firestar and Longtail relationship in the last part. It melted my heart completely aww.. Also, your designs are very cool
I love anyone who makes Longtail content as a certified Longtail relater. Everyone else in the comments has honestly taken the words right out of my mouth. Beautifully portrayed, wonderful work
It reminds how much he has been through, betrayal, dead apprentice and with other cats like Fireheart having distrust in him. I love the designs and the ending nearly brought me to tears.
Poor Long Tail, he had to pay for his “brothers” foolish actions, without even an acknowledgement, but he still kept chasing after them. In the end, it ended up tearing him from them.
Just in case anyone was looking for the lyrics (courtesy of google) That's it, it's split it won't recover Just frame the halves and call them brothers Find your fathers and your mothers If you remember who they are Over and over they call us their friends Can't we find something else to pretend? Like nobody won and we're safe at the end In the darkness the film machine's spinning So let's leave it on We'll be out in the street before anyone knows that we're gone That's it, it's split, it can't recover Just frame the halves and call them a whole And chip at the bricks and fill up your pockets With the pieces of the wall that you stole The hunt is on, everyone's chasing Everyone's chasing a shot A shot rings out, nobody wants it Nobody wants it to stop That's it, it's split, it won't recover Just frame the halves and call them brothers Find your fathers and your mothers If you remember who they are If you remember, if you remember, if you remember who they are
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME PMV :))))) all the designs and art are sooo good, and i loveee the flower symbolism ♥️♥️👍👍 amazing job!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry if this seems overbearing, its a really great pmv and im excited about the song i dont mean to be wierd)
HELLO I LOVE THIS, and that ending! Such a special moment in the books, I'm so glad you slipped it into your animation. It is pretty crazy to think about his closest friends destroying everything around him. Great work here!!!
Red Spider Lily. A flower of death, final goodbyes, and rebirth
This is my favorite flower of all time, and I was first introduced to it through Tokyo Ghoul. Excellent job incorporating it's symbolism here.

Wasn’t his dead body literally frozen in a furious snarl? I’m pretty sure he died angry.

The amount of symbolism and the images that match them are perfect. This is a stunning piece of work.

That's it, it's split it won't recover
Just frame the halves and call them brothers
Find your fathers and your mothers
If you remember who they are
Over and over they call us their friends
Can't we find something else to pretend?
Like nobody won and we're safe at the end
In the darkness the film machine's spinning
So let's leave it on
We'll be out in the street
before anyone knows that we're gone
That's it, it's split, it can't recover
Just frame the halves and call them a whole
And chip at the bricks and fill up your pockets
With the pieces of the wall that you stole
The hunt is on, everyone's chasing
Everyone's chasing a shot
A shot rings out, nobody wants it
Nobody wants it to stop
That's it, it's split, it won't recover
Just frame the halves and call them brothers
Find your fathers and your mothers
If you remember who they are
If you remember, if you remember,
if you remember who they are
❤❤
