Reasons Why Tree WC is a Trans Icon!
This is a headcanon i’m really passionate about, so i decided to make a post about it! I’m going to refer to tree with they/them for this post, I know he canonically uses he/him and the erins did not intend him to be trans, but this is a headcanon post! i also don’t really specify gender because i kinda think you could interpret this as tree being either enby or transfem, really anything other than cis lol. I also headcanon tree to be autistic, and I could definitely talk about how that overlaps with this headcanon, but I have plans to make another post about some of my favorite autistic headcanons!
Tumblr media
starting with tree’s roots:
1.) tree is, incredibly ironically, named earth by the sisters. tree later renames themself and shows a strong disconnect/general distaste for their old name. i view earth as their deadname, and i think it’s very symbolic of the incorrect expectations placed on them. they fail to connect with the name earth and the male gender just as they fail to connect with the earth itself, all of which were things expected of them because they were born AMAB, and expectations that they would never meet because they aren’t a tom. for the rest of the post, i’m going to refer to tree with their preferred name, so just know that when i’m talking about their time with the sisters, they were still being called earth. but in this headcanon, i view them as having been ‘tree’ all along, just as they were enby or a she-cat all along!
2.) growing up with the sisters, tree is incredibly distressed by the ‘tradition’ that they’re supposed to follow because they’re AMAB. tree is seemingly the only male sister in the group who has a problem fitting into this box. the toms in the group are supposed to leave on a journey, while the she-cats stay and help each other raise families and build a home together. tree is insistent that they can be helpful around camp and take care of the kits with the other sisters. they feel a strong sense of belonging with the family and domestic aspect of the sisters, while the toms typically feel a disconnect from it in their culture.
3.) it becomes increasingly obvious that there’s something different about tree when they and the toms their age are supposed to learn to ‘speak to the earth’. speaking to the earth is established as a trait that all toms in the sisters are born with, and it comes naturally to them with no problem. every time that tree tries, they hear nothing. they do their absolute best and ultimately put in way more effort than the toms, who all got it first try, but by the time that they’re supposed to leave, they still lack the ability entirely. i interpret this to be because the earth communicates with the mind of sister toms, not their bodies. thus, despite having a male body, tree is unable to form this connection because they’re not a man. and the earth can recognize this when others can’t.. so basically..the earth is based af and sees tree for their true gender, not their assigned sex at birth!
4.) when tree and the toms are forced to leave, the toms are perfectly content and maintain a good relationship with the sisters, on the occasion that they do run into the sisters again, they’re on good terms. this is not the case for tree, who feels that they were kicked out and abandoned by the women in their life who were supposed to support them. to the toms, this is an exciting journey and they have the earth as a companion to guide them, while tree is completely and totally alone and lost, almost as if this life was not meant for them in the same way it’s meant for toms.
5.) tree eventually comes across their father, root, who is the first cat in their life that they actually felt understood them. their father was also uncomfortable with the sister’s traditions, and is the first one to affirm tree’s experiences and by extension, their gender. the time that tree spends with their father is the biggest development of tree’s character in canon to me, so the same goes for this headcanon. firstly, when tree introduces themself, they aren’t sure what to tell root because they realize that they no longer want to associate with the name given to them by the sisters. root suggests that they should give themself a new name. renaming yourself is not exclusive to trans people, and of course some trans people choose to keep their names (and that’s valid!), but the moment when they chose to name themself tree has always been a moment that i really interpret as tree beginning their transition with their supportive father. tree and root become super close and tree learns so much about themself as root continues to encourage tree to do things their own way. (tbh you could interpret root as being trans too, or just an understanding ally) tragically, root dies, and tree worries that they’ll be lost without him, but root does his best to reassure tree that they can continue to be their authentic self without him, and not to let anyone try to change them. in later books, we can see how much tree took this to heart, as they are very unapologetic about being ‘different’, and they generally don’t care what others think.
in other books:
6.) during the conflict with the sisters over skyclan’s territory, tree agrees to come along and attempt to mediate. moonlight is very excited to see tree, and she expects tree to act like the sister toms that they’ve re-encountered before, who are usually very content with their situation and excited to talk about their journey, maintaining a positive viewpoint of the sisters. much to her confusion, tree is very cold and obviously not happy to see the sisters, and she attempts to question them about this, calling them ‘earth’. tree calmly but very firmly corrects that their name is ‘tree’ now, a moment that reminds me a lot of the way someone might react to being called their deadname by a family member. when the sisters express confusion as to why tree is living in a clan now, tree briefly explains that the clans gave them and their family a safe space that they did not have growing up.
7.) tree initially has a difficult time fitting into traditional clan life, and they struggle with feeling out of place. tree has no desire to patrol borders, and they don’t want to go on hunting patrols either because they have a very alternative method of hunting (pretending to be a bush) and don’t intend to change in order to conform. at this point in their life, I see tree as a fully transitioned she-cat or enby cat, and they’re now very confident in their identity, refusing to ever pretend to be something they’re not again after their childhood of pretending to be a tom. to me, small differences like their hunting method represent experiences that a trans person may have, while a cis person wouldn’t understand. i see the push for tree to go on patrols as representative of a push for them to conform to traditional gender roles, which they refuse to do. tree eventually finds a place in skyclan, who i personally think would be the most accepting clan due to their history of acceptance towards daylight warriors.
8.) skyclan eventually learns to appreciate tree for who they really are, and come to respect tree’s wisdom and accept their way of life. however, when tree goes to their first gathering, the other clans are not as accepting. they don’t understand tree, so they automatically assume that tree isn’t fit for clan life. through their skills as a mediator, tree eventually proves that they are just as valuable as any other clan cat, they’re just different and there’s nothing wrong with that. tree’s opinions eventually become more respected because they offer a new perspective. tree is a trans cat who grew up and transitioned outside of the clans, so they have life experiences that a cat born in a clan just wouldn’t have, even if they were also trans. i think a lot of skyclan cats could be interpreted as trans, so I like to think that younger trans clan cats or even cats who are just questioning their identity come to tree for advice from an older trans cat who’s already transitioned. because I still headcanon tree as being mates with violetshine and being the other biological parent of rootspring and needleclaw, I think that tree would also be asked about the experience of being trans and same gender attracted by cats who may be confused. it just kinda becomes part of tree’s job as a mediator to be an ally and help other queer cats, as well as offer personal anecdotes to educate others, and I think they would thrive in that job.
9.) tree’s whole relationship with their son, rootspring, leads me to also headcanon rootspring as trans, but I see him as transmasc! rootspring is initially embarrassed by tree, which I interpret as a little bit of internalized transphobia. he thinks that if tree wasn’t so ‘weird’, then the other apprentices would treat him better. the emphasis on tree being ‘different’ can he interpreted in many ways, but because of everything else, I see it as an emphasis on tree being trans. then, rootspring suddenly develops a ‘weird’ power exactly like his parent. only tree can fully understand, and rootspring turns to tree for guidance. i see this as rootspring realizing that he’s trans too, and turning to his wiser trans parent, asking tree questions about their transition. tree helps rootspring to become more comfortable with his unique ability and eventually, rootspring learns to be proud of he and tree’s power. this is a parallel to root’s relationship with young tree, and tree strives to become the supportive parent that root was to them. to me, this is representative of tree helping rootspring overcome his internalized transphobia and embrace his identity as a trans cat. at one point, tree even pretends that it’s them using the power in front of the other clans, because rootspring isn’t ready for them to know. this represents tree discretely protecting rootspring from being outed as trans before he’s ready, instead bringing the focus to their own transness since they’re comfortable with it.
10.) now comes the emotional part when tree encourages rootspring to go meet the sisters. tree emphasizes that they can’t face the sisters again, but that they want to give rootspring the opportunity to know his own family in a way that tree never got to. the part that I found so interesting and fundamental to this headcanon, is what rootspring learns while he’s there. the sisters tell rootspring the same thing they told tree, that speaking to the earth just comes naturally to all sister toms and all you have to do is listen. except, when rootspring tries, he immediately picks up the ability in the same way that tree’s littermates were able to. to me, this immediately confirms that it was never something tree was doing incorrectly, but rather it was just an ability that they never had to begin with because they aren’t a tom. i think everything ties together really nicely when you look at rootspring as trans too, because then we get to see the opposite outcome. rootspring may be AFAB, but on the inside he’s a tom, so the earth views his mind the same way it would for any other tom. it really completes the headcanon that the earth views your true gender for me, and that’s why I think that tree is a trans icon!

New Prophecy
Squirrelflight : queer, she/he, might be a trans man if she thought about it long enough Brambleclaw : the only one that i think is cishet. uncertain whether he is cishetallo or not though, he might be asexual spectrum Tawnypelt : t4t queer, she/it, intersex and transfem Feathertail : asexual lithoromantic lesbian, she/ae/bright, girlflux Stormfur : unlabelled, any pronouns (he/him pref), cis man Crowfeather : Trixic, they/them, nonbinary Leafpool : Bisexual, she/her, cis Power of Three
Lionblaze : cishetallo Hollyleaf : asexual greyromantic lesbian, she/they, demi-girl Jayfeather : oriented aroace gay, star/they/he, doesn't care to think about his gender but uses moonguardian, moonboy and starryghostic.
Omen of the Stars
Dovewing : Omnisexual (male pref) and probably aroace spectrum but she is scared of acknowledging that, she/her, cis Ivypool : Sapphic demiromantic, she/it/claw, nonbinary girl Flametail (he counts <3) : Aroace, he/him, trans man Vision of Shadows

Dawn of the Clans Grey Wing : Asexual aromantic, he/they, cis Clear Sky : Heterosexual, he/him, trans man but he's probably the sort of trans man who tells other trans people that they aren't valid because they present differently Thunder : I wish I cared about thunder enough to have thoughts on him but he is the beigest character i have ever read about maybe only second to lionblaze i dont care about him his girlfriend fucked his dad why did she do that he creates the most boring clan ever and does literally nothing grey wing and clear sky are so interesting then you have to read a whole book about this man and i actually can't remember anything except from his girlfriend who deserves so much better than him why is he here he's so boring River Ripple (he's a protag to me) : Aromantic asexual, any pronouns, either genderfluid or agender
Other random characters i want to share my headcanons for because I feel particularly strongly about them
Rowanstar : Queer, he/him, trans man (obviously) Puddleshine : Demisexual homoromantic, xe/xem but they/them is okay, nonbinary Tall Shadow : Lesbian, he/she, views lesbian as her gender identity in a lot of ways Mousefur : Aromantic asexual, she/her, dont know about her gender Runningwind : Aromantic asexual, they/he, demiboy Redtail : Gay, he/him, trans man Sol : Queer, any pronouns, trans masc pangender Fallen Leaves : Sapphic, he/him, demigender Sleekwhisker : Lesbian, she/her, trans and she won't clarify in what way Mothwing : Lesbian, she/her, trans woman Cinderheart : Bisexual, she/they, girl to the left Cinderpelt : Bisexual, they/she, girl to the right Snowfur : Gay, he/him, trans man. PLEASE someone appreciate trans man snowfur he's so important to me Blackstar : Gay (bear), he/him, cis Fernsong : Going through every single gender and sexuality crisis everyday. Ended up settling on abrosexual, pronoun fluid and genderfluid but even then that might not stick. Ivypool somehow always knows what pronouns to use even if Fernsong hasn't told her yet Tallstar : Gay, he/wind, cis Jake : Pansexual, he/him and SO many neopronouns, cis Barley : Gay, he/him, trans man Darkstripe : the most toxic gay man you have ever met Hawkfrost : the second most toxic gay man you have ever met

short list of lgbt-inclusive games that i love (in brackets is the kind of representation):
- cattails and it‘s sequel, cattails: wildwood story (nonbinary, queer in general): these are both great games that warrior cats fans will love. also, every single cat in the game is non binary. everyone is only referred to by they/them and you can have kittens with anyone.
- starfield (nonbinary, bi, same sex relationships, trans): you can choose your pronouns (he, she or they) no matter your body type. you can also always change your body and pronouns for a small fee. some main companions talk about former partners of the same gender, in at least one case, a character references dating men and women. guards may also reference a partner of the same gender.
- skyrim (same sex relationships for player, gay): you can marry regardless of gender and adopt kids with your spouse. there is a dead gay couple. (this will be the only game with so little representation on this list. i included it because i love skyrim, because you can make it gayer with mods and because it is from 2011 so i don‘t have high expectations)
- ikenfell (nonbinary, queer relationships, neopronouns): a really fun rpg with a fun combat system. also very queer, every character has their pronouns listed and there are nonbinary people with they/them, ze/zir and even he/him pronouns. i haven‘t quite finished playing through it yet, but there are all kinds of queer relationships. oh and you save the game by petting cats
- wandersong (queer relationships, gender nonconformity, nonbinary): a really unique and wholesome game about a bard that wants to save the world. it has an amazing story and some of the most well written characters i have ever encountered. the bard is nonbinary and uses all pronouns and there is a noteworthy nonbinary character whose story doesn‘t revolve around them being nonbinary. they are fully accepted. there are plenty of queer relationships. there are mermaids with beard stubble.
- a short hike (nonbinary): an amazingly fun game that actually feels like a holiday. it also has a super fast turtle that goes by they/them pronouns
- shovel knight (queer relationships, trans, nonbinary): fun platformer that allows you to choose your body type (male/female) and your pronouns (he/she/they) independently from one another. you can also do the same for all bosses and your love interest.
- squidlit and super squidlit: really fun gameboy style games that were created by independent trans developers.

The Blueflower AU
The Blueflower AU is an AU I came up with about a year ago! In this universe, Bluestar is actually a medicine cat named Blueflower!
It all starts after Moonflower’s death. Bluepaw begins to neglect her training as a warrior apprentice, and after struggling with Sunfall for a few moons, she tells him that she wants to train as a medicine cat instead. She announces it publicly to the clan at the same time Pinestar decides to leave to become a kittypet. Her choice is not well-received, but both Featherwhisker and Sunfall (soon-to-be Sunstar), stand by her and allow her to begin her training. Snowpaw and Goosefeather in particular are especially unhappy about all of this.
Snowpaw, feeling abandoned and confused, grows closer to Thistlepaw. This of course only puts more of a strain on she and Bluepaw’s relationship. Meanwhile, Bluepaw is also trying not to be bothered by Goosefeather’s ranting. He comes to her multiple times, insisting that she’s denying her true destiny and disobeying Starclan. She ignores him, and starts to resent him.
Bluepaw, now struggling to be close with any of her kin in Thunderclan, begins to form relationships outside of her clan. Namely with Yellowfang and Oakpaw, who, in this AU, is also a medicine cat. She and Yellowfang quickly bonded over the fact that they previously trained as warriors, and Oakpaw gives her the opportunity to let go of all her stress and expectations.
Finally, Bluepaw earns her medicine cat name. Featherwhisker chooses Blueflower, in honor of her mother. Despite her clan’s initial reservations, she’s become a trusted medicine cat. Both Stormtail and Snowfur are disappointed, but Snowfur tries to be supportive. Blueflower is elated that her sister seems to want to rekindle their strained relationship… Until she learns that Snowfur is expecting Thistleclaw’s kits. She can’t help but feel a bit betrayed that Thistleclaw, who’s terrorized her for moons, is the cat that Snowfur chooses as her mate. Still, she tries to remain close with Snowfur, not wanting to lose her again after moons of hardly speaking. Besides, she can always vent her frustrations to Oakheart.
Snowfur’s kits arrive, and Blueflower adores Whitekit. Thistleclaw isn’t fond of Blueflower’s presence, and fears she’ll make him “soft” or encourage him to become a medicine cat. But, in this AU, Snowfur lives, and he knows he can’t exactly threaten Blueflower with her around.
Oakheart and Blueflower start to spend even more time together, and Blueflower is surprised when she starts to develop feelings for him. She tries to suppress them, but fails. Besides, it’s so easy to hide it all behind “medicine cat duties”. They meet once every full moon anyway, if not more. Maybe they could hide it, maybe no one will find out.
Of course, Yellowfang isn’t that naive. She tries to warn Blueflower, but knows she won’t listen. She’s the first one Blueflower confides in when she learns that she’s expecting kits, and wishes she could do something to help, but ultimately there’s nothing she can do. Blueflower confides in Snowfur about her kits, and they pull a Leafpool and Squirrelflight.
Thistleclaw, who has recently been appointed as the Thunderclan deputy, is thrilled to have three more kits, but he is not happy about how much time Blueflower is spending with them - even more so than with Whitekit.
I’ll add more to the story later, but for now, that’s all!
