Round paws made her way through the clearing and towards the base of the Galewood as she heard the leader's call. There was relief at the sight of her return clearly etched in the she-cat's blue eyes. Her first instinct had been to join in on the battle, but then something peculiar had happened. Lightningstorm had stayed behind. This was... not something she would have guessed of the petite healer. It was no secret that she loathed the clan. And quite frankly, while she did not agree with her view on life, after what she had been dealt in her short life, the fury found she couldn't bring herself to blame her for it. And yet she had seemingly pepped up of late. She could be seen by the entrance of her den more often. Grinning. A twinkle back in her eye. One would assume because of the birth of her mate's kits and yet... she hadn't gone visit them. Not really. So something was up. She could feel it in her very marrow.

So she remained behind. As much to keep an eye on the calico as she did to keep an eye on her own daughter. StarClan knew how stubborn her darling bird was. She hadn't been informed yet. Of the obvious pregnancy. But after having been through not one but two of her own, Dapplebreeze believed she could trust her gut on such matters, or so she hoped, because goodness was she giddy at the thought. Grandkits! And perhaps these would... actually know her. She would not make the same mistake. Not again.

It was instant. Her desire to seek out her daughter after such thoughts. And yet her eyes met another familiar form that drew her in instead. The massive, scarred feline with eyes so intense they felt like they could almost match her passion for the clan in grumpiness alone. He'd remained behind as well. She was certain he would have had his own grounds for staying. The commander had never been one to shy away from a battle without motive before, and she was certain this raid was no exception. And yet for some reason, she found herself less intrigued in the explanation and more so simply craving his company. Mismatched ears twitching for only a moment, she padded forward, a small, polite purr of greeting rumbling in her throat as she reached him.

A look into his grimacing face made it clear to her that he was in no mood for small talk. Despite her preference for some manner of communication between herself and whoever she was sitting besides, she found he spoke loudest with actions... and seemingly heard them better than words as well. With little more than the purr to announce herself, Dapplebreeze sat comfortably besides him, allowing her tail to gently run along his back in a soothing motion. Her own teasing way of letting him know she had no intention of leaving his side for now, even if she wasn't quite improper enough to verbally state so. There was a vast difference between a playful motion and irritable chatter, and she knew better than to toe the line between both, especially when she had no intention of truly annoying the brown and white tom.

Wow lots of apprentices today. Blinking slightly Crowtooth flicked an acknowledging tail at Lightningpaw before quickly answering Vinepaw so he could give the tom his full attention in a moment.

"I suppose if Dustbunny has said Im the cat fer advanced stuff I aint gonna argue wit' 'er. Nice o' 'er ta say. What 'ave ya done so far kiddo an' what are ya lookin' ta expand so I know who ta grab ya wit' fer a session. Not everyone Im teachin' at the mo is at the same level after all."
As an example Rabbitpaw was far outstripping most of the tunnelers students in both enthusiasm and what he'd learned, but hadnt learnt the really tough stuff like intentional cave ins. Admittedly Crowtooth was a bit wary of that skill himself. Hawkfur on the other paw knew the bare minimum and wanted to keep it that was while Silverrose and Swiftfire had mastered navigation and tunneling but still needed hunting and tunnel fighting. The rest of the furies knew nothing though so if Vinepaw was in that group he'd just snag the apprentice for that rather then an advanced session.
"Ya dont have ta say now, ya can think on it an' what ya wanna master but if ya have a base of knowledge wit' Dustbunny it'll be easier. Dwell on that if ya want."


With that the tom focused on Lightningpaw, who until now he only knew second paw.
This was the cat Rabbitpaw had gotten into a fight with and needed advice about from the mentor. From what Crowtooth could glean Lightningpaw was upset and angry because he was worried, however had taken things too far when Rabbitpaw had not understood that fact. Frankly Crowtooth had advised Rabbitpaw explain things more and that they should both apologize but had worried he'd instead made his apprentice feel in the wrong in the end. Damn his poor ability to word things well but at least the two seemed to still be friends?
"Heya kiddo, Rabbitpaw has mentioned ya before. He did great in the battle, Im really proud but one ear o' his got tattered an' looks kinda like mind now. He did worse ta the cur that did that though.
He's fine last I saw but ya'd be a good cat an' friend if the next time ya saw him ya reassured him hes a good cat an' try an' lift his spirits? Battles can be rough on the heart."
Especially ones first battle.
