With their borders clear and more secured than before - no thanks to anyone but Dusklion and the cats she had taken out there with her - the dark tabby stalked back into camp. A few droplets of blood still fell from where she'd gotten hit from the last outsider she had faced but nothing that would bother her that much. "Troutpaw!" she called with a lash of her tail, wanting to get this over with so she could go collapse at the side of her brother's nest.

"You're demoted, that part should've been clear enough," came the snide response as soon as the disgraceful warrior showed himself. She had once held high hopes for him, had even considered promoting him to join her on the Lionheart team that was trying its best to aide RiverClan. But now... "I want the walls of camp inspected, the sides of dens, 'n I want them patched up if there's any holes. You're not to go anywhere near Fades 'n the medicine den. I don't care if you're hurt, if I catch you even breathin' near him I'll have your tongue." Who knew what else this warrior would do if he didn't want to fight the rogues that had put her brother in a nest fighting for his life?

"Once you've done that, we'll see about givin' you your rank 'n name back." She would've brought his punishment to Birdsnow, but her trust in their leader had completely diminished though, what between her lack of presence in the camp and the way she had already brought three cats before her to be punished but hadn't been given any clear answers on what to do. So if anything when Fades woke up, she'd turn it over to him. For now though none of those options were viable, so that left it up to her. Lovely.

[ Troutpaw - @MockingRabbit ]
[ so troutpaw just needs to make a post at each of the dens and camp clearing thread, save for the medicine den, of him looking for any holes and patching them up if he finds any! nothing too harsh or anything. the due date for this is 4/26; once he reports back here to dusk she'll grant him his name and rank back! ]

Troutpaw
He/him 25 Moons - Demoted

Troutstone had been thinking on his way back to camp, and as he was waiting for the return of the head Lionheart. The situation, as he was beginning to think of it, was actually a lot simpler now that his anger had mostly subsided. He still felt that he was in the right, but he could at least understand Dusklion's own anger.

He scented the she-cat before she came over. He straightened his back and wrapped his tail neatly over his paws. He noted how tired she looked, felt somewhat guilty that he couldn't at least have been there to help. His sympathies washed away the moment she opened her mouth and spewed out her spiteful words. A righteous fury threatened to wash over him when she forbade him from going to Fadingsun, or the medicine cat -did she even have that authority over him?- but the punishment itself wasn't too bad. Don't argue, don't argue, don't argue! He pleaded to himself. "Yes, Dusklion."
His mew was cold, and he stared at a spot behind her head, refusing to meet her gaze. He stood and turned away to start.
