With the short response Adderpaw couldn't help but feel a little hurt. A curt response wasn't what she was expecting. Maybe Larkstar didn't want to be her friend, maybe she was more concerned about befriending higher ranked cats. No no, Adderpaw you couldn't think like that on so little to go on that was just asking for self defeat. What else could Adderpaw say, there wasn't much time. It seemed like Adderpaw was over staying her visit and she didn't want to get on the leader she idolized bad side. "I see. No." Adderpaw said, trying not to seem upset at all. She got up and left for the exit. Right before she left she looked back and said one more thing. "Larkstar just know trees are mighty and stand tall but they have several roots to support them up. Just... Think about that ok." We don't have to be friends, but don't think you need to be alone.

Larkstar didn't answer, eyes fixed on one of the shells that lined her nest. She was being stupid, really, she knew she needed all the help she could get, have cats who would listen to her, who trusted her, on standby. Fishbrat had said as much and she knew he was right, but that didn't mean it was easy. So she stays silent, guilt eating at her, but hopefully the apprentice might leave now...

"Oh, sorry, I must've misunderstood a little," she sheepishly apologizes, "I'll pull her aside when she returns, then. Thank you for coming to me with this."

Ripplepelt padded from Asterpaw's body with a heavy heart. Sickness was one thing, but to lose so many of their cats to other clans, foxes, mysterious causes...
Well, at least a fox was something concrete, something she could deal with - and Sycamoresprout had mentioned a possible fox patrol when they'd brought Asterpaw's body back to camp, so deal with it she would.

"Larkstar, do you have a moment?" she mewed, waiting by the entrance to be called into the young leader's den.

Hearing the old warrior mew by the entrance of her den, Lark suppressed a shiver from the cold when she said, "come on in!"

"In that case, thank you very much," Lark tried for a smile and a purr, hoping she'd succeeded at least a little bit, before pulling the morsel closer to herself and taking a bite. It was leaf-bare scrawny, but it was still good.

"I'm not sure why... I was too focused on... Her... To really ask too much more than who did it. 'm sorry."

The shame is suffocating. Swallowing hard, she stares at her paws, hot tears pricking annoyingly at the corners of her eyes. It was her fault. She let Willowwisp die-- she didn't even try. But what could she have done? That gash was far too deep and she didn't even have any supplies... There was nothing more she could do. But it sucks. And she hates it. Hates letting the clan down-- letting herself down. It was unacceptable. She'd think harder on this later but right now Larkstar is still talking to her and she needs to pay attention. So she lifts her head, expression hard to read, and shakes her head.

"I didn't look, but I can. I can even ask for help since I don't know exactly what I'm lookin' for. I'll... I'll go look and then get back to ya."

Bowing her head, she takes her leave, returning to the med den to search over Willowwisp's body for more clues on her attacker.

She hadn't looked for evidence of who had killed her, but, of course, how could she have thought to do that? Larkstar knew something about staring at a dead body, and often it would be difficult to do anything other than stare. Especially if the death was one you felt was your fault. Or if the one who died was someone close to you. Lark didn't blame her for not looking. She nodded when Tansy declared she would return once she had something to report, so, for now, with the healer gone, Larkwing curled up in her nest, trying to get a moment of sleep.

He had taken the time before approaching his aunt's den to compose himself (and to also make sure Honeys was safe and sound inside the nursery). There was only one reason - or maybe two - that Wingkit was here today, and he wanted to get it over with as fast as possible. It made his fur crawl thinking about entering the den of a cat who could quite possibly want nothing to do with him, especially one that was family) but still the young tom stepped into the dark, cool den and glanced around.

"...Larkstar?" His blue-green eyes had to adjust momentarily to the dim lighting as he stepped further in, searching for wherever his aunt was resting. His heart hummed in his chest like a buzzing fly but he ignored the way it screamed at him to run and hide. "...I wanted to comes and, um..." One paw digging against the ground as his tail drooped a bit and his gaze remained focused on it, the tom did whatever he could to avoid looking directly at his kin. "...um... apologize abouts, um, the... meeting." The words were muttered under his breath and accompanied with a hardened stare in his eyes that was directed at the wall just behind his aunt and not at her. Still his paw twirled against the floor of his den and the tip of his tail twitched anxiously.

She was sort of expecting to have to be the one to come to him, but Wingkit surprised her today by being the one to show initiative. His voice was small, and his posture indicated that he was likely uncomfortable doing this, but he'd done it anyway. He'd swallowed whatever pride he has and came to apologize. Most young cats wouldn't dare to do such a thing, and Lark found herself both impressed and pleased by her nephew.

"No, no, it's ok, Wing," the leader says gently, "I wasn't - and still aren't - mad at you, I promise. And, I'm not mad at Rushwater either," well... ok, that might not be entirely true. She is mad at him, but not because he saved Honeykit, rather, she's mad he didn't say anything to her once Honey was back and safe, and on top of that, she's maybe a little mad he'd been hiding the fact that he's her brother from her for about... 19 moons now. "I'm very glad you said something, I didn't mean to get so angry I was just... really worried."

"I got Charredpaw and Frostpaw for you, Larkstar!" Smolderpaw meowed calmly and gently. He quietly sat there as Charredpaw and Frostpaw glared at each other disappointedly. Obviously the two blamed each other.
"This is all your fault, Charredpaw."
"What?! How am I to blame?! I was simply trying to help Larkstar! You should be to blame, you suggested going out there in the first place-"
"ENOUGH, BOTH OF YOU." Smolderpaw hissed at the bickering apprentices who he hoped either got demoted or were given scars to pay for their actions.

"What the HELL do you two think you were doing?" Larkstar demanded, sweeping into her den with Birdsnow hopefully following behind (she'd wanted Bird with her in case the deputy had something else to add that Lark didn't). "I gave both of you a direct order to stay at camp, and what did you do? You deliberately disobeyed me!" Tail lashing behind her, Larkstar's gaze was icy, pinning the two apprentices with it's intensity. "What do you have to say for yourselves? What made you think what you did was in any way ok?"
