erin hunter never dug deeper than half an inch into the emotions of their characters but one of the most conceptually gut wrenching scenes for me in the books is honeyferns death, where leafpool is staring at cinderheart hoping, praying, that some bit of cinderpelts wisdom and guidance will surface and tell her what to do so she can save honeyfern, and cinderheart is staring back at leafpool wondering why she can’t save her sister

Eurylochus really hit him with the “But we’ll die 🥺” after everything he did. Love him for that.
"While You Were Dead"
This issue serves as a goodbye to our two most prominent deceased characters - the killer and the victim both. Two of my favorites to write (though not necessarily to draw; their designs are agonizingly complicated), and whose deaths both made huge splashes in the readerbase.
It still really charms me how popular Rainhaze ended up being, and I'm just glad everyone else liked him as much as I did. I got to explore a lot of interesting and complicated ideas within his character. Asphodelshine I sometimes wish I hadn't killed off, but only because it makes me miss her. Which I suppose is how I know I did a good job with it.
The title is taken from Cat Rambo's story "Tortoiseshell Cats Are Not Refundable": “He and Mindy would laugh about that together eventually. He wondered what that would be like, to be able to say, “While you were dead.”
