"Well, that's great that you've been on a run today. I honestly think you would have made a fine Windclan cat as well. But I am glad you are in Thinderclan, you help make this place complete. Without you, nothing would be the same my dear Bluedust." She purred encouragingly. She liked being uplifting. Happy Clan happy life, right? If she could do her oart in encouraging her Clanmates, she knew that her words made a difference. Words always made a difference, especially to those who thought they were incapable of being welcomed, admired and loved. Barkskip had been the same way as a kit, so she encouraged him. Now he was fully accepted as a warrior. She was glad tha he seemed to be doing fine, but she doubted 'fine' was all he was thinking. As fast paced as he was, he was probably a swirling flurry of emotions, that was, if his emotions swayed and moved as fast as his legs and mouth. She loved her friend, but she had to admit, it was hard to understand him sometimes, with his slurred speech. She tended to avoid the subject though, thinking it as a sensitive subject. She was snapped back to reality by his question. "Oh yes, Storkflight seems to be doing fine. Already earned himself an apprentice. Hopefully he's enjoying training a young cat. He never had a good mentor, she never really trained him. That's when Barkskip took over for him and taught him. It's why the two are so close now. They're the closest pair of brothers I have seen in a while, especially since they are both adopted kits of mine. They're doing great though, although I think it's taking Storkflight some time to get used to being a warrior. He'll grow into it soon though, this is everything he's ever wanted, and now he's achieved it. Most likely, he is searching for a new goal in life."

''An apprentice, eh?'' Bluedust asked, cocking his head to the side. It was a good thing he had one, nothing wrong with it. The tom thought the younger tom was a bit too young to have his first apprentice. Though Bluedust could not have a say in it, for he never had an apprentice and he was already thirty moons old! Not that he was too old to take one on. He figured that within a couple more moons that he would be ready to join the senoir's den. He was happy that he most likely wouldn't be alone. Nightbreeze would be there, always chirpy and sweet as she was. He was thankful for cats like her. As he finally settled down and listened to her, the tom asked. ''Ah, yes, there's many good mentors in thunderclan, but there's always that one bad mentor you have to watch out for. It's amazing that he had Barkskip to help him in his time of need.'' The tom answered, hopping to his paws once again. It was quite humorous that she believed he would had made a great windclan cat. The tom didn't believe that he would had made great at any clan. He knew windclanners were fastest within the clans, having to be known for their remarkable speed, like the Riverclan cats were known for their remarkable swimming abilities. Every clan was great at something, and he wondered what Thunderclan was best at? What Shadowclan was best at? What skyclan was best at? It was nice to be known for your attributes, but Bluedust wanted to be known for something much more than that. He continuously thought about leaving the clans to seek what called his name, but he couldn't leave behind his most treasured friends. Even if he knew they would do great without him. They have been doing great with him, anyway. The tom lightly moved his paws, digging his claws into the earth ground to keep away from agitation. As he looked up at Nightbreeze, he hoped he didn't seem weird, but he realized that he haven't asked her how she was doing, other than taking care of her...oh, so many adopted kits. And, honestly, Bluedust enjoyed watching the kits. They were growing up pretty fast, and Nightbreeze didn't take a second thought once she decided that she would adopt more. What a caring cat she was. And, how rude had he been to not ask her how she was doing. The tom hissed at himself before turning back to her, mustering a bright smile. ''How are you doing though? What have you been up to?''
