~ Lioncrest ~

Recent political tensions between clans weren't usually a cause for concern in Lioncrest's mind; Thunderclan would persevere, and he would fight tooth and claw for their victory. However, considering the recent... unfortunate streak of medicine cat loses, injuries, and honourless attempted assassinations, the large golden tom wasn't going to take any chances when it came to his mate's adopted daughter. Besides, they needed to have a proper conversation outside of him escorting Dovefluff to the medicine den or cordial patrols.

And so Lioncrest approached the medicine cat's den with a self-assured stride. He would be imparting incredibly useful skills onto this young cat. Skills that could end up saving her life one day, should the forest turn towards heedless bloodshed.

"Springpaw," the large, golden tom rumbled, poking his head into the strong smelling den with a blink. "Would you care to accompany me on a patrol through the territory?"

Best to start these things casually. Easier to form bonds when threads are woven slowly.

[ @eris First time for real conversation woohoo!!! ]
