Brackentail bullied Star through out the first year of the black foal's life, he even tried to murder Star. Most of us would have to agree it was pretty despicable of Brackentail to do that, but if you think about it, what would you do if you looked at Starfire from Brackentail's prospective?
Imagine this: someone you really cared about, was insistently hanging around someone you were convinced was a bad influences. What would you do? Sit by and let the person you thought was a bad influence be around the person you cared about, and potentially end up hurt? Or would you stop at nothing to lead your friend away for the bad influence?
I think that a lot of times we don't try to understand why the villain is the villain. We don't try to figure out how that character became evil. Brackentail ended up becoming a trusted friend of Star, but only after Star had convinced Brackentail that he wasn't a bad influence on Morningleaf.
THANK YOU!!!!!! Brackentail is one of my fav characters. HE IS SO SWEET AND HONORABLE!!!
I love Brackentail. Yes, he did try to kill Star, but that was only because he cared for Morningleaf and he didn't want her to hang around someone who could'hv been dangerous.
My point exactly
I still ship Starleaf though. Sorry Brackentail!
Me to
:) I don't wanna be a bother, but do you know if Riverstar is caught up yet?
I really wanna continue!! XD
gtg
I have no clue where she's at, but I'll unpause it in a few days regardless if she's caught up or not
This is all true!! But still, it was a tiny bit overkill to put every Sun Herd pegasus' life at risk by making a deal with Rockwing. Okay! Come to the think of it, he had no other choice to unless Echofrost would die. x gets briefly sucked into Golden Meadow and murders Rockwing again x but still! The only reason he had to MAKE that pact otherwise she would die is because of his own dumb choice. If he hadn't changed the battle to a Canyon Run, they wouldn't have gotten into that mess, and a thousand pegasi in Sun Herd wouldn't have died.
Well Brackentail didn't know what Rockwing would do with the info. Brackentail was basically trying to start making up for what he did
I kinda don't like him cause he be stealin stars gal......but I do feel bad as he is very misunderstood
I think you guys have pretty much said it all, and I agree. I still haven’t forgiven him for the Canyon Run and the ensuing battle, but you do make a strong argument Dragon. If you put yourself in Brackentail’s shoes (well, wings) it is easier to imagine him doing the things he did.
Exactly!
That is very true, but Im not one who forgives easily. I still dislike Brackentail....... and wish that he would stop trying to get between Starleaf. (But thats my opinion)
I agree with Cass. I do like Brackentail, I do, and I understood his reasons before Dragon posted them, but he really needs to let Starleaf Be Starleaf.
All true!! And Dragon I completely forgot about that lol XD
I say I agree with Flamefrost and Wispi (WISP WISP :D). I don't forgive Brackentail for the Canyon Run, but I feel bad for him sometimes, like when he started whispering into Morningleaf's ear to sooth her in Landfall when the six where eating the death berries (ofc, they didnt know THAT) and Star catches him, so he stops. But then again, I feel angry about that too. If Star wasn't there, Brackentail probably would have tried to charm her four white socks off (pun intended XD).

I love Brackentail too. And I would do what you said, Dragon but in a friendly way like trying to figure out the situation and get to know the person first.
