~ Larkwing | @poppy. | hehe, how's Aspen gonna feel about this |

Urgent. Lark had never cared for this group of weird cats but what had happened both at the odd event and meeting was a problem. Nectar, Corn, even Dog seemed like bad news at the moment. She was loyal to herself and herself only, but her options were to make things better here or leave with her kits to become a loner again. Neither were good options but at least this one was easier to try out, harder to accomplish perhaps but preformable without closing the other option. If things got worse she could leave, if she left she couldn't make things better here.

"Aspen?" Her voice was quick and sharp as she hurriedly made her way into the den. She didn't look around this time, both since she had already been here and because her mind was nowhere near those thoughts. "I need to talk with you about these recent events." Quickly she settled in front of the chief before continuing rapidly, not waiting for the other molly to answer her. "Nectar is a problem, that much is obviously. What it less obviously is what to do about the mater. As I see it there are three options here about what to do with her. Option A is to make it look like an accident, I can do it myself, lure a fox towards her or push her in front of a car. Option B is to frame someone for her death, OR frame her for something to justify banishing her. The last option C is to simply kill or exile her without too much justification."

"There are pros and cons to all of these. A is simple and wouldn't be questioned much, might even pull the clan together if we make it look like Dimclan did it, we could make them unite towards and common threat. But if it fails we might have an even bigger issue to deal with if she understand we set it up, and it could possibly turned the clan on us. High risk, high reward you see.

B might be the safest bet, on one would blame you if it's convincing enough and it could make you look like a good leader since you're executing the justice they crave, we could even toss out a few others to make it look better. As long as everyone of them isn't against you at the moment since that would be very suspicious and might make them revolt.

Then there is C that is a compete gamble but with pleasing rewards. Say we execute her, cats will either agree you did the right thing by eliminating a possible danger to our clan, but they might instead - and sadly this is most likely - think you're acting in a bad way and revolt. If neither of those happen they will either not care or get scared of you, for better or for worse, it could all depend on how we play things."

She had been speaking so rapidly she as almost out of breath. But there, three options, it could go very wrong or get rid of many of their problems. "But of course Nectar isn't the only problematic cat but she is the most problematic, with her gone we can wrong on the other things."
