It was certainly something Darkfur appreciated, for the snow was something rare and didn't come often, so when it did fall, it was worth just gazing at it from a warm nest, watching the flakes cover the ground. If he looked close enough, Darkfur could even make out the individual patterns on each flake. He smiled to himself, purring loudly, and groomed his chest before getting to his paws and shaking out his paws one by one, struggling a bit with his left hind leg, which had been permanently twisted long ago during his apprenticeship. He bent his head down to run his tongue over his paw on that leg, then straightened, glancing around the den at the other cats. Noticing Saplingpetal at the entrance watching the snow, Darkfur smiled and limped his way over to her, before plopping down in a sitting position beside her with a grunt, his lame leg sticking out from under him a bit, but he wasn't bothered by it. "Enjoying the view?," he mewed softly to her with a smile, gesturing towards the snow with his tail.

Saplingpetal was so lost in her own thoughts that she didn't even notice the other cat's figure that suddenly appeared next to her. She didn't even look over at her new company since her mind was vividly focused on how pretty the snow blanketed the ground. Despite her short pelt, Leafbare had to be her favorite season because it just looked so grand. Especially when the snowflakes first start to fall on the ground in a rather sparkly manner. Besides that, playing in the snow was always a mirthful time. Saplingpetal tilted her head, her tails neatly covered her paws and she only blinked back into reality when a voice rumbled at her. She was startled, but not startled enough that she had flinched. She couldn't help but purr back when she realized that it was her friend, giving him a once over look and offering a soft smile his way. ''Oh, it is so gorgeous,'' She drew out a purr, and a sigh of bliss escaped her maw. ''Don't you just love the snow? It looks so pretty when it first starts to fall l-like - like - l-like - like - oh I can't even describe it! But it is so beautiful! I don't know what view could top this!'' A flurry of words left her mouth since she was known as a rambling social butterfly. She couldn't help but get her jumbled thoughts into the open, especially since someone approached her and decided to start a conversation with her. ''I just want to play, roll, and run in it with the snowflakes covering all my fur! I mean, I know I have a short pelt and all, so I'll get cold quicker, and that has happened quite a few times. But like it doesn't stop me form wanting to play in the snow, because should it? Cats with my pelt size should be worried more about hypothermia, but even right now the snow is just so tempting to play in and have the snowflakes landing on your nose or tongue - oh, how rude of me!'' The she cat couldn't stop talking and once she realized that she went off the rails, she had to back track, and gently set her tail on Darkfur's flank. ''I haven't even asked how you were doing on this marvelous day, friend! So, how are you?'' She asked, trying to stay polite, but keeping her bubbly attitude shown.
