Mallowpaw
102/100

Wolfhive seemed pleased enough with her attempts, but Mallowpaw's spirits fell at his next words. How are you feeling so far, Mallowpaw? She knew he was trying to help her, to look after her. But she hadn't done anything strenuous; just some battle moves. She hadn't even sparred. Yes, she had once collapsed after stalking, but that was moons ago. She had gotten older, stronger. She was warrior aged now; she shouldn't need to be asked how she was feeling after practising battle moves. But he would always see her as weak. How could he not, when she hadn't done anything to prove otherwise?

Trying to push away the thoughts lest they overwhelm her, Mallowpaw gave Wolfhive a small smile. "Good, thanks." She wouldn't let her feelings show on her face. He was just trying to help her, after all. Even if it felt like the opposite.
