Dragonflycliff was simultaneously expecting this many looks and was NOT expecting this many looks oh stars. The amount of cats who turned to face her, to look at her. She was dead, and she knew it, and it stung to know this was probably the last time she'd stand here for a while.

But first it was Chasmpaw- Oh stars CHASMPAW? She was a horrible mother oh no no no no, she had just... She barely managed to not start crying, because this was so horrible. She just left her daughter. Never said a word. She couldn't make excuses. Dragonflycliff didn't have the time for that. She just shook her head, trying to keep herself composed. " I'm sorry, Chasmpaw. I wish I could have done so much better for you." she mewed quietly, only loud enough for those close by to hear. She tried to do something, anything, but time was fleeting. She would have laid a paw on Chasmpaw's head, if all of them weren't occupied in keeping her standing. She made an attempt to lick her head fur instead, as an attempt to fix whatever she'd done. But it wouldn't work. This was probably irreparable.

Next was Peachpaw, who seemed confused as to her appearance, fair enough. She just appeared, she guessed. Not very... normal, of a dead cat. Dragonflycliff looked back at the apprentice. Valid response. Who else was staring at her? Dragonflypaw! Of course, the new medicine cat apprentice. She felt honoured to share a name with a cat with such potential. She blinked respectfully, dipping her own head in return. She seemed nice enough. Who else... Flintclaw seemed to have ignored her... uhhh oh Acornfall she thought it was? He maybe looked at her. She wasn't entirely paying attention, and she was having some difficulty seeing with her singular eye. Because like... One eye.

Spiderthroat was up there. He was going on without her being mentioned as there. She didn't really want the stuff stopped just because she was here, she was trying to treat this like she was alive one final time. To celebrate new things. Like the warriors. Words got stuck in her throat. She wanted to live again. Spiderthroat had said sharing her name was worth it? She doubted that. She was so pathetic, the only one to have died to those otters. Dragonflycliff took a few steps forward.

Drizzlepaw and Rosepaw both seemed to distrust the fact she was here, or more like Rosepaw was telling Drizzlepaw this. She had just walked in as if she was just another cat in the clan. Wasn't every day a StarClan cat just summoned themselves in camp. Normal behaviour? Not. Unlike that one time the other ghost showed up and ended up having the traitors exiled. That was also annoying. And then when it was at the graves... She felt like it was following her sometimes.

And suddenly, Smallfrost was yelling nonsense. Not really Dragonflycliff, or something like that? She turned to face the warrior. Seemed newish. She had so much attention on her it felt dangerous to say anything too... mean and have the whole clan start yelling. This was a meeting still. "What in the name of StarClan do you mean? I'm me. How would I be impersonated?" she spat, how could he say that? "You can see my body in the medicine den, for confirmation of how I look," she proceeded to mumble, "And a body can't really be swapped out, can it?"

They were a complete mousebrain, and she turned to face the meeting again. Still pretending. Because she didn't want it to be over. She wanted to stay. She so wanted to stay. But she couldn't. She felt crackly, fizzly, just for the second. But then it stopped. Weird. She waited for anything else to happen.

And then something did. She turned to stare at the apprentice sized cat that walked into camp. Wasn't that the Holly that she had to stop from leaving camp or something silly? She stared at them as they walked past Rosepaw and then went on to meow something in Dragonflypaw's ear. Well if they meant possible harm she kind of may be the only way to stop another ghost? She padded over to the apprentice and the medicine cat apprentice and stared right at the ghost. "And you and I might end up fighting because you need to get out of this camp right now." she spat, because they didn't look like they meant well.
