Description So I had this in mind for a little while and felt compelled to draw it. It's Brambleclaw and Hollyleaf from Warriors. I listened to the song "Happy/sad" and imagined a storyboard. Now, I don't do AMVs or partake or make MAPs or anything, but I did have this concept in mind, so I'll walk you though what I was thinking.



The song is "Happy/sad" from the Addams Family Musical youtu.be/Mog57_TBWlU


Right and wrong, who's to say which we should refuse
(In Thunderclan, Hollyleaf is confronted by Thornclaw about Ashfur, and other cats have begun crowding around to hear)

All we know, love survives either way we choose
(Hollyleaf reflects on when she killed Ashfur, thinking about Squirrelflight and her love for her family before she leapt at him)

Here you are at the edge, go ahead and fall
Don't resist, I insist

(Brambleclaw pushes through the crowd to see Hollyleaf being questioned)

Love still conquers all
(Brambleclaw steps in and lies to defend Hollyleaf, putting his love for her first)

(spoken) It even conquered you, my little Attila
You're growing up

(This scene is off to the side away from the Clan after the event went down. Brambleclaw lip-syncs this to Hollyleaf)

(spoken): And you're cool with that?
(Hollyleaf lip-syncs this back to Brambleclaw, looking guilty about Ashfur)

(spoken): Yes, and no
(Brambleclaw looks disappointed as he lip-syncs this)

I'm feeling happy, I'm feeling sad
A little childish, a little Dad

(Brambleclaw lip-syncs this to Hollyleaf)

I think of all the days you've known
All the ways you've grown

(Flashback to Hollyleaf growing up, from kit to apprentice and then warrior)

See you on your own, and then
(Holly emerges from the tunnels and hesitantly returns to camp)

I'm feeling happy and sad again
(Brambleclaw sees her and smiles bittersweetly, happy that she's back and alive, but torn because he had thought she was dead)

I think I'm rested, but then I'm tired
Today requested, tomorrow fired

(This is a flashback to before when the kits were in Bramble's life, and he's doing things for the Clan like hunting, but he's then pulled aside by Hawkfrost and Tigerstar and feels conflicted)

And now a boy says he adores
She who once was yours

(On top of all he has to worry about, he sees Ashfur cozy up to Squirrelflight)

How can I ignore such news?
I'm sad and happy, why should I choose?

(Brambleclaw feels a little jealous over Ashfur and Squirrelflight, but doesn't have time to fully worry about it because he's dealing with his family issues. He's feeling conflicted)

Life is full of contradictions, every inch a mile
(Cut to Ashfur trying to burn Squirrelflight and her kits in the fire)

And the moment we start weeping
(Holly in the fire is shocked as an angry tear drips down her cheek)

That's when we should smile
(Holly angrily spilling the secret at the gathering)

In every Heaven, you'll find some Hell
(cut to the battle of StarClan vs the Dark Forest)

And there's a welcome in each farewell
(Hawkfrost and Ivypool are about to face off, but Hollyleaf jumps in and defends Ivypool, sacrificing herself in the process)

Life can be harsh, the future strict
(Holly is laying there bloodied and bleeding out after having been dragged back to camp)

Oh, what they'll predict
(Brambleclaw watches from a distance, wide-eyed and in disbelief as Hollyleaf dies with Leafpool at her side)

And the boy you've picked, not bad
(Squirrelflight, teary eyed, goes up to Brambleclaw. Brambleclaw embraces her as they mourn the loss of their daughter. In the end, it's clear that Brambleclaw was really the only choice for Squirrelflight. You can see in Bramble's eyes he's reflecting that it was always them)

So let's be happy
Forever happy
Completely happy

(Long after the battle is over, Bramble and Squirrel rekindle their relationship. Squirrel has her litter of kits with Alder and Spark. Brambleclaw is overjoyed)

And a tiny bit
Sad

(Brambleclaw brings a flower and drops it over a small mound of dirt where the grass has grown over. He sits beside it in mourning as he remembers. This is Hollyleafs grave, and her ghost appears, walks over, and sits beside him.)


I really like this idea and if I knew how to cut animation together, I would host a MAP for it. But unfortunately I don't know how to do that. Tbh I kinda got feels from thinking about this concept.
