She/Her | Purrks Overlook

One mishap after the other. Lostspark was going to throttle Starrylight. Or maybe she'd refuse the warrior herbs. Eh, she was just seething. More than likely, Lostspark wouldn't hold true to either of those promises. A grudge was nothing to potentially kill someone over. Mistakes. That's what her life boiled down to in the end. No use moping about it now, anyway. There was no time for it, either.

She had given Starrylight one task after the fidgety warrior had dumped Fogkit in her den, and Starrylight hadn't even done that. Come to think of it, Lostspark had also suggested Mistlewhisker about checking the RiverClan-ShadowClan border to see if any RiverClanners were there waiting, and Mistlewhisker had said something about talking to Dawnstar and Vulturefang about it. Apparently that hadn't been done either -- but to be fair, it was mostly Starrylight at fault. And maybe even Lostspark herself, for not following up about it. But between learning of Starrywisp's code-breaking, getting concussed, going blind, getting renamed, and having thirteen kits... it was safe to say there had been plenty on Lostspark's mind lately. Enough that she hadn't thought to go back and double-check that the two warriors meant to inform Dawnstar of Fogkit's presence had actually done their damned job.

Which they hadn't. Surprise. (note the sarcasm).

If she could see, Lostspark would have scoured the group of gathered cats for Starrylight, to call the warrior up, to make the warrior give a reason for why she had not informed Dawnstar of the RiverClanner in their midst after bringing him to camp. Yes, Lostspark was still pissed about that mistake too. Starrylight could have sent for Lostspark, not brought a rival Clan kit to camp.

Moving away from her mate's side and picking her way over to where Fogkit stood, trembling, Lostspark didn't bother spare Slytiger a glance (more so because she couldn't... actually see, so it wouldn't matter to acknowledge him anyway). "Starrylight brought him in." When? How long had it been, again? When Lostspark recalled, she grimaced on behalf of both herself and the warrior. "Over half a moon ago." Lifting her head, sightless gaze fixed in Dawnstar's vague direction, Lostspark pursued her lips in quiet irritation. What the hell had Starrylight been doing for all this time?

"She brought him to me, dumped him in my den, mumbled something about him being a RiverClan kit and that he was injured, and then left my den after I told her to inform you that she'd brought a RiverClan kit to camp." Lostspark allowed her tail to brush against the ground near Fogkit to make sure of where she was before she inclined her head in the kit's direction. "He was injured. I bound his wounds, and then questioned him. A bird, likely a hawk, snatched him right from RiverClan's clearing, and no one thought to stop it apparently."

Sightless gaze flicking back in Dawnstar's direction, Lostspark straightened. "I suggested to Mistlewhisker to check Saltmeadow Marsh for any RiverClanners asking after Fogkit." Reports. Lostspark had made reports to her mother so many times before. The only difference here was that she was making one in front of the entire Clan... which, let's face it, she was bound to hurt more than one cat's feelings. Something for her to deal with later, if said cats were ones to hold grudges. "Either that happened and Mistlewhisker didn't find anyone... or it never happened." Lostspark was really hoping that second option was not reality, because the warrior had actually given her a good first impression when she'd been in her den. She could still hope that Mistlewhisker had gone on her own, yes?

"I've been keeping him confined to my den since. Didn't want him wandering around camp and getting killed by an unaware ShadowClanner, lest we need to return him to RiverClan and it ends up he's... dead."
