Yeahhhhh, I decided to take a break from BirchxApple XD Besides, it was only a matter of time before I submitted a picture that had to do with Frozen! I love the movie just as much as everyone seemingly does, and I’ve long since wanted to do some warriors pairing fanart centered around the love song of the movie. Love Is An Open Door is still my favorite song from the movie, despite (spoilers for the very few people who haven’t seen the movie) Hans turning out to be a total jerkass. Hey, just because the guy Anna is falling in love with turns out to be evil doesn’t mean I can’t still love the song! Anyway, I thought the song would be a good match for Ivypool and Bumblestripe since both of them have gone through hard times. Ivypool has always felt unwanted because everyone likes her sister better than her, and she also got pretty traumatized from training in the Place of No Stars. Bumblestripe had to watch his sister get crippled for life, and got completely neglected by his mom when she started obsessing over said sister. He also got pretty much treated like trash by the she-cat he had a crush on because she was too busy mooning over a guy in another clan. What if they could get through their pain…together? Oh, how I do love care and comfort relationships! Also, does anyone remember the ship tease they had in Fading Echoes where Ivypaw/pool is comforting Bumblestripe about Briarlight? I do! Honestly I’ve been shipping these two ever since Ivypool was introduced as a kit, and I in no way intend to stop just because Bumblestripe had to go and get a crush on stupid slutsue Dovewing. DOVEXBUMBLE CAN GO TO HELL! Dovewing basically treats Bumblestripe like dirt, and the relationship is so one-sided it’s painful. She obviously would ditch him for Tigerheart any day…and she does, in the end. Plus, I just absolutely loathe Dovewing, and the fact that she has a love triangle centered around her pisses me the fuck off. She doesn’t really even deserve Tigerheart, let alone a guy who should obviously have been with her sister! She is such a whiny Mary-Sue, and the way she is oh-so-selfless and would never spy on her clanmates just makes me hate her even more. Bitch, stop complaining about your powers and freaking ENJOY them! I know I would! Besides, she replaced Hollyleaf, who was a way better third, and actually deserved to be in the prophecy. Dovewing doesn’t deserve anything except a long, painful death. I really hope Dovewing friendzones Bumblestripe or something, because if he ACTUALLY becomes her mate and accepts the halfass “love” she gives him, I’m going to slap him. Go be with Ivypool, you idiot! Warriors pairings these days 
Well, I used a snowy background in honor of Frozen, as you might have guessed :3 I especially like the frozen river running through the middle…so pretty! There are actually a surprisingly large number of pictures of pale gray cats with black stripes on the internet, so it was fairly easy to find a picture of a cat who looked like Bumblestripe. Ivypool was a little harder, but I’m happy because I think the cat I DID find is just beautiful :3 And for once I didn’t do any eye-color editing on one of the cats…Bumblestripe’s eyes in the original picture were yellow, and they still are! I couldn’t make them a more vibrant yellow, so I just left them as they were. I haven’t made an IvyxBumble picture in so long, but it’s good to get back 
I’ve missed this couple a lot…and hey IvyxBumble fans, we still need to try and catch up to the DovexBumble fanart!
