Asterpaw followed to where Bumblestar called a meeting for the clan, watching as all the cats in the clan gathered below her. He was nervous. He'd only met Bumblestar so far and none of these other cats had any reason to like, trust, or believe in his ability to be an asset to the clan. The thing that would probably sway them was their leader believing he'd be helpful to the clan, and that was the main thing he was grounding his mind on in order to keep up his confident seeming demeanor. He sat up tall, tail curled around his side but not covering his paws, and held his head up high.

Part of him wondered if the other cats would be taking notice of him, clocking him as an outsider given a chance here, and he had to suppress a shudder as doubt tried to cloud his mind. 'No, get it together Aster-- ...Asterpaw,' the siamese scolded himself internally, having to remember his new name and correct himself, 'you deserve to be here. This is where you belong. You've as much right as any other cat here to stand tall here.' Still, despite the mental scolding, uneasy doubt pulled at the edges of his mind with dark tendrils, it wanted him to cower, to cry out how unsure he really was, to scream that maybe his gut instinct that he belonged here was wrong. He wouldn't do all that, though, he simply held his head up a little prouder, belatedly wondering if the posture came across as arrogant.
