"Today's the day!"

Bearkit stumbled out from the nursery, darting straight for the Streamstone. "Today's the day! Today's the day!" The kit chanted as he pushed through the gathering crowd. He took his seat near the front, beaming up at Lionstar with squirming excitement. Scanning the clearing, he specifically looked for Lotusheart and Jasperpelt, hoping they'd be here for his ceremony. Surely they'd remember, right? But as more and more cats blocked his vision, Bearkit sighed in defeat and returned his gaze to the Streamstone. With his giddiness returning, he leaned over to the nearest cat and whispered. "Today's the day!"

Lionstar sure likes his meetings. What's next, another day of elder duty?

Taking a seat near the back of the meeting, Graypaw leered up at Lionstar, all hunched and tired. For once in his life, the exhaustion wasn't from exploring. It was from all those Star-forsaken chores. Bits of moss could still be seen in his fur from all the nest-building earlier that day. Yawning, he did his best to stay awake as he waited for Lionstar to make his hundred-and-somethingth announcement.
