Nostar/ Relationships

this page concludes all of Nostar's personal relationships.
==Archstone==
despite being born to two mothers in conflict and even sharing the same father, these two looked like the perfect recipe for resentment and never-dying competitive nature, and yet Nostar and Archstone have always been extremely close to each-other, from telling jokes to goofing around in youth, Nostar never doubted his half-brother in his skills for a second when everyone believed him to just be lazy, Archstone was the only cat who never left Nostar after the loss of his tail and name change, though nostar always feted that he'd lost his brother's respect, making their bond stronger over the moons, the leader still holds a great amount of respect and love for the tom, comforting him when he lost his mate and continuing to support him through near, far and thick and thin. though they don't consult each other, both often speak about retiring together and even help in moments of uncertainty. the leader thanks starclan for being practically born with a best friend. whilst archstone is grateful to see his brother lead blossomclan with pride. if Archstone had wanted it, Nostar probably would've chose him as a deputy without question.
== Lilacdream ==
Even in apprenticeship, it is mentioned that Lilacpaw was favored deeply by the leader, for reasons most likely that she and him had similar morals and even ideals. with some even thinking that he was spoiling her with apprentices and ceremonies. Nostar holds great respect for her, and proudly believes he made the right decisions with her as deputy, he knew and trusted that Blossomclan would be in her safe paws when he left for good one day, he chose her as the future leader because he knew of her desire to be one, so he decided to leave the responsibility in the paws of some-one who wanted it than some-one who was more unstable with the ideal role, when confronted about his choice, he admits to never regretting his decisions, nor the idea of replacing her, overall he remembers her and her family as incredibly noble warriors. he is impressed when she leads camp all by herself and even grows defensive when Arvy's rouges question her authority. this is all put to the test when she and her warriors disappear, Nostar is deeply saddened and even puts off choosing another deputy for weeks. asking loki to question starclan and tell him where they could possibly be, when he finally chooses a temporary replacement, he is unable to trust any other cat as much as her and struggles with his choice. it's still known that Nostar favored lilacdream's deputyship over frostfire's, though he feels guilty about that fact. Nostar feels stingy about the idea of her not returning and continues to leave camp open for her one day, as not much time has passed since she's left.
== Rootnest ==
While it was unclear of Nostar's romantic interest in any she-cat, as a deputy he coincidentally grew an attraction to Rootnest, the attraction was short-lived as he forced himself to get over it when Rootnest chose Thistletail instead, but he's never had another interest for anyone since, Beaverspots sometimes theorizes its because Rootnest was his only and truest love, and that Nostar just uses the excuse that it's because of his role as leader to keep from choosing another mate.
== Owlstar ==
Nostar always respected Owlstar, he tends to think of him from time to time, remembering the moment owlstar chose him as his deputy, needless to say, Nostar feels sort of disappointed because he never knew much about the leader or his attributes, Owlstar didn't spend much time as leader so no-one really knows much about him to lift some guilt from Nostar, needless to say the gray-ish blue tom wished he'd spoken more often with Owlstar, and maybe would've grown a bit of a bond with him, unfortunately that would never be the case as he had passed away far too early into his leadership.
== Ashlight ==
Nostar always believed and still believes Ashlight to be a noble warrior, as she never left blossomclan's side for so long, but when it came to choosing a deputy, Nostar chose Lilacdream instead because while Ashlight had the nobility and loyalty of a deputy, Lilacdream had the dreams and desire of a deputy, Nostar still loves Ashlight but he deeply and regretfully judges the relationships and toms she chooses as her mate, sometimes wondering if she got that unfortunate detail from Lilacpool, but over all Nostar still never denies Ashlight's trust, worthiness and skill as a mother, and would argue with any cat that said differently, as it is known he feels like a huge peice of him went missing following her death, the two seemed to have been in a close father-daughter relationship.
== Nightdust ==
Nostar originally didn't know Nightdust at his first parts of life, only ever confining him in camp in apprentice, as a concern for his safety, though the black tom interpreted this as distrust and control. Nostar had severe friction with Nightdust when he'd served snakeroot, as he began to consider even killing him to save his clan. he only sees a glimpse of sanity when Nightdust decides against saving his mate. one of the reasons that Nostar forgave Nightdust for his actions as well as cared for the tom, was because he was Lilacpool's son and only remaining kit from her first litter, he always sympathized with the tom when he knew what he was going through, as Nostar had gone through heart-break and disappointment himself in the past, to the leader, it was like Nightdust was just like him on the inside through his traumatic experiences, the only difference is that Nostar hid the regretful feelings deep inside him. Nostar seemed to have some level of care for lilacdream and nightdust's friendship, as he gave himself the idea to find Nightdust after he'd left in hopes that he could at least mend his relationships. and even manages to grow a close friendship with him when snakeroot is out of the question.
== Brightroar and claytip ==
Nostar was extremely distressed when he'd lost his two apprentices to Blossom, their deaths being the primary cause of his paranoia. Claytip was Nostar's first apprentice and one of his favorites, as the tom was tough when needed but also had respectable options, Nostar never admitted it but he really would've made him deputy if his apprentice had survived blossom's attack, he still misses the tom greatly in patrols and attacks, he rarely wonder what things would be different if Blossom hadn't killed him for no reason in his opinion. Brightroar was also Nostar's favorite apprentice, as the big tom was warm and sunny like his appearance, sometimes the tom was too forgiving but it never decreased Nostar's respect and care for him, Nostar still strongly dislikes blossom, for taking his apprentice's life for no reason at all other than for something a little extra, and is glad that she's disappeared.
