Ah, yes, Spiderthroat was specifically Dogbark’s challenger now. Spiderthroat certainly wasn’t challenging Aspenstar too.
No, Maplewhisker was a challenger to Dogbark too, apparently. The fact she had threatened an apprentice was worthless if she was speaking for Aspenstar, as long as she believed Aspenstar would save the day, it was fine.
Dogbark was pissed at Aspenstar. He wasn’t going to challenge her again, but he was upset that she hadn’t even addressed what was happening, only apprenticed some kits, and yelled at Dogbark, nothing else, not even a promise before she left.
She had up and left, leaving Dogbark alone with the scattered remains of the meeting.
With a growl, Dogbark turned and pulled himself onto one of the roots that jutted out from the ground like a knee, perching on it like a bird.
So, it seemed Dogbark had to handle any last strains of the yelling, fine. He would. But he would not reply, he would not give them ammunition, he would just reply as calmly, and plainly as he could.
He was not going to bicker like a child in front of his clan again, he refused to.
[Please wrap up your yelling/conversations, we don’t want to clutter this thread.]
