Hollyshadow was honestly surprised by his honesty. His willingness to tell the truth about how he felt was inspiring. It made this slightly depressed molly feel a bit better, not because he wasn't doing good, no but because he'd honestly tell her. And I just did what I always do. Say I'm fine and not let anyone know. She reflected flicking her left ear. As he mumbled an apology she strained her ears to make sure she heard why. Maybe she wasn't the one making his day bad maybe he thought he was her's. As he said it was because he had trouble dealing with stuff Hollyshadow was a bit shocked. I do to. The molly realized. They were alike in that way though she didn't know his story. "Well, if you want honesty. I uh, don't really either." The young warrior admitted shifting her paws a bit. It was big for her to admit something like that aloud but she felt Rumblestorm deserved it. The tom had told her exactly how he felt this morning and she hadn't. He deserved it.

Rumblestorm raised his eyebrows. Well, that was a first. Typically he could sense that other cats shyer away from such blunt honesty. He appreciated how she didn't lie to him with a deceitful answer. He offered a small half smile and blinked a couple times. "I see we are not so different as it may seem at first glance." He meowed, his voice lighter than before. It was nice to talk to somewhone who didn't out on a mask of perfect ease like so many he had come to converse with. "So," he meowed at a an attempt to break the growing silence between the two. "D-Do you have an apprentice at the moment?" Rumblestorm instantly regretted even starting on the topic. It was a rash decision on his part, and the molly could instantly send the question right back at him, and, without meaning to, reopen the wound in his heart that had only just begun to heal over. His mouth twitched down in a frown. Nevertheless, he looked up and strained for a small smile.
