Silentstar's Links
They're secretly mates.
They'd always been close friends and visited eachother regularly despite being in different clans, but they grew closer after the epidemic, having lost many cats they cared about. (especially Willowfoot, who had been Silentvoice's mate, along with Sheepheart's friend)

Silentstar's first apprentice.
Even after Wavestrom became a warrior they remained pretty close, Silentstar sees Wavestrom as a younger sister.

After Willowfoot died, Wavepaw took her place in being Silentstar's translator whenever he needed to make an announcement to the clan.
Silentstar confides in Wavestorm regularly, for both emotional support and for her opinion when it comes to clan matters. Although Silentstar does like his deputy, many consider Wavestorm to be the "secondary deputy".
Silentstar cares very deeply for Wavestorm and doesn't try to hide it.
Wavestorm's mentor.
Even after Wavestorm became a warrior they remained pretty close, Wavestorm sees Silentstar as an older brother and looks up to him greatly.

Wavepaw and Silentvoice were the perfect apprentice and mentor pair. They bounced off eachother well, fought together brilliantly, and trusted eachother whole-heartedly. This trust was one that built over time though, Silentvoice and Wavepaw are both hesitant cats after all.
However, after Wavepaw was in an accident where she one of her front legs, their bond strengthened.
Wavepaw's world was shaken after she lost her leg. Although she didn't brag about it, she was the most adept apprentice before she lost it. She was proud of her skills and all she had achieved in the time she had been an apprentice, and having that ripped away from her without any promise of recovery threw her into a frustrated depression.
Silentvoice helped Wavepaw get past this hard time in her life and taught her how to fight and get around again with three legs. During this time, Wavepaw also learned more about Silentvoice's past and the struggles he's faced because he's mostly mute.
Silentstar doesn't like Burningflight. He thinks Burningflight in general is annoying, but he also dislikes the way Burningflight runs her clan as deputy.
Burningflight acts chummy with Silentstar despite Silentstar's obvious dislike of her. No one can tell if Burningflight realizes this, or if she's actually just that clueless.
Silentstar thinks Smokechaser is the most trustworthy among the leaders and deputies. He believes that Smokechaser will stick to his word, and that he's just generally a well-intentioned and kind cat.
Silentstar would like to get to know Smokechaser better, especially since Smokechaser is friends with Sheepheart and Silenstar has heard a lot about him from Sheepheart, but tensions are high right now and Silentstar must put his clan first.
Smokechaser watches Silentstar warily. He fears that Silentstar may have ambitions that could involve Hillclan territory. In general, Smokechaser is on edge about Marshclan's increasing aggression towards the other clans. Although all the clans are a bit ansty, Marshclan has a history of staying calm and easygoing, so it's uncharacteristic for them.
However, Smokechaser still has a large amount of respect for Silentstar and all that Silentstar has gone through, so he's hoping that Marshclan and Ironclan won't have to be enemies.
