was Romsca in love with Barranca I'm not sure it's been a long time since I read Pearls of Lutra so I'll have to go back and check :)
Recently finished it, so I'd say perhaps, but probably not... she just admired him.
OK
Probably not. Romsca did not show much affection to anybody.

Not in that way! :-X
It wasn't actually in the book, but it's been one of those I've thought about for so long I've just kinda accepted as fact

Not sure what you mean, but I mean she was nice to them, showing affection. Don't forget when she died...
Well not like she would've liked Barranca
But she was a ferret and he was a stoat. I don't think that Brian would have had them together.
Ferrets and stoats are related closely enough :D
Do you remember the otter Bragoon in Loamhedge? Do you remember how he disguised himself as a ferroat? (;D!) Was that meant to be a mole and a fox? No! He disguised himself as a cross between a ferret and a stoat, which is very possible IRL!
I say maybe. I won't say yes because I never really gave the idea much thought. Not impossible though :)

The Wearet was very...odd. I could never quite picture him clearly when I read the book. How could he have virtually no neck or ears? Very odd indeed.
As a side note, it is possible for a female ferret to successfully produce offspring with a male stoat, but I'm not sure about a weasel and a ferret. Of course, weasels are very closely related to stoats, so it might have worked.
This is off-topic, but as for Razzid Wearat...I really don't see how he came to be. Weasels and rats aren't even in the same family (Mustelid + Rodent makes absolutely no sense).

good point ;)
no
I'm not sure. Brian never really wrote about vermin love like he did "good" creature love. I recall him mentioning it maybe once in a book (sorry, I can't remember which one, there's 22 books it's hard to keep track!). I wouldn't rule it out, but I would also say that there was not enough evidence to support it. Maybe he wanted the reader to decide?

That book was probably
Outcast of Redwall,
Loamhedge,
High Rhulain, or
The Bellmaker. Those are the only ones I can recall that have vermin couples in them
what about Taggerung
That too
There's not really anything about vermin when they meet, its always after they have met. And I havn't seen any true love between vermin. So I think, possibly, but unlikey :P

Yes, you see allot of vermin have 'Mates', but they never seem to actually show likeness to each other.

Yep, most vermin are too fickle to have true love.
Gingervera met another wildcat and they fell in love

But he wasn't a true vermin either.

He was a wildcat though. And you might say Romsca wasn't a "True vermin". The Point is even if they were on the "good side" they were still vermin.

Yep that is true. Although most vermin are evil so they probably don't even want to consider a mate but the good ones may have.
In the Sable Quean there was a vermin who seemed to love her mate, two, in fact. Or at least they cared for them enough to want revenge on their deaths.
yeah I remember that

Letsee, I don't remember their names, but one was Thwip's mate and the other was the one who helped the Sable Quean after Zwilt almost killed her.
Binta and Thwip, thanks for giving me Thwip it made me remember
This part of the series always confuses me. I know sometimes animals would show affection, such as veil and thingie. But that doesn't make sense because it's against instincts to care for creatures that aren't your race unless they may be useful, like cAveman hunting dogs...
No.
