"Tch, obstacles is so true." She grumbles. "I swear, just about everyone's training is in a sorry state. Bet you we've got plenty of reassignments incoming. You remember that one time there were, like, eleven? Hasn't gotten any better." But knowing that so many other apprentices were impacted helped keep her from sinking into another self-pity spiral about her own circumstances (which had in fact gotten way, way better the second she stopped entertaining the self-pity spiral altogether, so...good lesson learned). "There's plenty of good warriors, though. You just gotta be the one to make the first move since they're also, like, shy or something. Night hunting sounds pretty cool...I wanna learn water combat and pick up something like tracking or stealth, maybe even tree-climbing if someone around here knows it." Those extra special skills favored by other clans pique her interest the hardest. She wants to know anything and everything that could give them an advantage over her.

"But first I need to learn how to swim and last I went out, the rivers were frozen over. Even if they thaw out again soon, I don't know the odds of finding someone who'd be willing to get into ice water with me. I might be able to guilt Willowtail but that feels evil." Forcing the smallest and pregnantest warrior she knows into freezing cold water...it's not that Salamanderpaw's above it, but she knows that she should be. Surely she'll find someone she feels a little better about tormenting before it comes to that. Here's hoping that happens sooner than later.

"You have anyone lined up to show you that special stuff yet?"
