After hearing him speak again, some of Featherstorm’s anger faded away. She felt bad for stepping back, it had obviously hurt him. It seemed her gut feeling had been right all along, he didn’t look dangerous. And the way he talked and held himself didn’t seem dangerous either. She was pretty good at reading others, so she should’ve just gone with her instinct all along. She didn’t let her guard down though, just on the off-chance that she was wrong. You can never be too safe, and no one was right all the time.

She couldn’t help but feel touched when he called her pretty. Featherstorm couldn’t help but start to like him. It still unsettled her a little that he had been watching her, and it seemed he did it often. She took a step forward, and when she spoke she tried to be friendly.“If you’re watching me, you must not have much to. I’m not interesting at all. Wouldn’t you be a little weirded out if a stranger, no matter how sweet they seemed, told you they’d been watching you? And yes, I guess I kind of have a schedule.” As she talked, she looked Obsidian over. She tried to see if she could find out anything more. Then she looked up and tried to meet his gaze. “I’m Featherstorm, by the way. You said your name is Obsidian? What brings you here to Riverclan?” She asked.

He giggled a bit. “I know your name! I know it’s kinda weird, but I don’t like to pass up opportunities like this!” His spirit was lifted, and he had a happy tone in his voice, something he hadn’t heard in a while. He sat down and gave a few licks to his pelt before meeting her eyes.
