The naive love of youth (Forbidden Romance

Plot Name: The naive love of youth (aka Ivy x Feather)
Clans involved: RiverClan and ThunderClan
Characters Directly Involved:  Featherpaw (RainyHeart), Ivypaw (Two), Perchstar (Ash) and Acornstar (Honey Badger) potentially, maybe others in the future

Will there be code-breaking?: Yes, Featherpaw and Ivypaw will become romanticlly involved.

Explain your Plot: Featherpaw and Ivypaw are both curious young cats who meet at a Gathering and hit it off as friends, despite the current tension between their clans.  As apprentices, they will meet up a couple of times to explore and hang out together, but after they become warriors their friendship will start to become more than that.  They will officially enter into a forbidden relationship for a time, but it will ultimately end.  We're not sure yet what will end their relationship (mutual decision, being discovered, or perhaps a litter of unexpected kits) but it will be relatively short-lived.

How will this impact the characters/clans involved?: Featherpaw has always dreamed of experiencing a grand adventure, and with her disregard for the rules and her passionate emotions, this is right up her alley.  However, over time she will come to realize that she's made a mistake and that this isn't what she wants for her life, helping her to mature and realize where her loyalties lie.  Similarly for Ivypaw, he will realize that the relationship was a poor choice and break himself out of the distractions of love.  If their relationship is discovered it will impact the relationship between RiverClan and ThunderClan and perhaps cause tensions to grow even more.

Why should this plot be approved?: It will provide necessary character development for both Featherpaw and Ivypaw on their paths to becoming strong, loyal warriors for their clans.  It will teach them not to be reckless with their affections and to think through their actions better.  It will also provide some extra spice to their lives, and some interesting memories to look back on someday.

This plot is approved! Apologies for the delay. As a general reminder, both characters must be warriors before taking on any mates or partners!
