Sparrowflight~
Well, family seemed to be as good a topic as any for this cat. Sparrowflight watched him with interest as the tom in front of her seemed to soften as they thought back to their younger years. They seemed to have had a well rounded upbringing and
STRONG family values that the younger she-cat could admire. Glancing up to the sky as Scorchfrost mentioned his father, Sparrowflight dared to wonder whether or not her parents walked with Starclan as well. Her biological mother hadn't held many beliefs in that regard, or at least none that she outwardly spoke of. Coming to Thunderclan as a kit, however, had nurtured her own beliefs in the cats passed on that watched over her and her companion's daily lives and struggles.
Her father...
"
I never knew my father," Sparrowflight stated, still gazing at the sky rather wistfully. "
My mother never spoke of him, and he didn't deem it necessary to be a part of my life growing up." Would it have been nice to have a father figure as she grew? Probably, but Mistyshade was more than kind to her growing up and supported her throughout her kit-hood and right up until now as a warrior. Glancing back to the tom beside her, the she-cat's eyes glimmered in thanks as she smiled at compliment to her qualities. "
But I admire your desire to make your father and the rest of your family proud. It is a noble goal, and I'm sure he is pleased with your drive to do so."
Shifting her eyes to glance back at her sisters before returning to Scorchfrost's gaze with a soft smile, Sparrowflight adjusted her paws underneath her and thought about her own goals. She hadn't really had many after completing her warrior ceremony. She had earned her full name, could beat most cats in Thunderclan in a race through the forest, and now had two wonderful sisters to help grow into valued members of her clan.
"
Right now, my goals lie with helping to train those two rascals into proper warriors," she said, amusement plain in her voice as she flicked her tail towards the new apprentices. "
But, after that who knows what Thunderclan will be in need of."
