Rabbitchatter | he/him
Long brown furred tabby tom with amber eyes

__

Rabbitchatter had finished up with with Alderheart, and at the moment had decided not to contemplate the whole morning of activities. That was probably best for later consideration, perhaps when he was less tired. The tom cat toddled into camp dragging his soggy tail behind him with bundles of soaked moss between his jaws. It hadn’t entirely occurred to him that replacing his nest with moss in the dead of winter would take longer than just going to fetch it. With a defeated huff the tom dropped the bundles onto dryer ground and used a paw to flip them open. Perhaps Sundust would be open to letting him leave some of the moss around to dry in their den, leaving some for the medicine cat and then taking the rest to repair his wrecked nest.

He hummed quietly under his breath in the midst of thought before scooping them back into its delicate piles and leaving it aside. He was frustrated because he was hungry, how silly of him to forget. A small smile worked its way onto his maw and at that he stood to scout out the fresh kill pile. Upon his first visual sweep it became apparent to him that… it was less fresh kill and more cold leftovers. The warrior pulled his lips taut over his teeth, chewing on the inside of his cheek and using a paw to move aside a frozen mouse to reveal a small thrust and probably a reaaaally old rabbit.

He weighed his options and settled on the rabbit. What could go poorly about it? Surely the cold would’ve preserved it a little bit, even if it wasn’t super fresh. Right? The warrior bent over the corpse and used a paw to try and dislodge it from its frozen home. The rabbit was likely warm when it was set down, therefore the ice froze around it once it cooled. Which was a lot more difficult to remove than he would’ve assumed. After a few moments (and an attempt to warm it with his own breath) Rabbit settled on hooking both paws under it and wrenching it with his best effort.

And as anybody could’ve guessed, that went just as well as a fish learning to climb trees. With one big heave Rabbitchatters grip over the rabbit slipped and he went sprawling backwards with the effort of his pull.

@Starfall
I know this is like a hundred years late ! So sorry !!

@Jayvines
SoftRipple was disappointed in herself. “Lost again!” She grumbled and looked around for SparrowStar or anyone!

Sharppaw crawled with his two front legs as fast as he could. He had no idea how he managed to get out of the medicine den. Someone must have dragged me out or something. The black tom would have never left the medicine den by himself. And yet he could crawl at a fast pace with only his front paws. "Sparrowstar!" Sharppaw called.

Dustflower

Dustflower sits outside of the den looking at the clouds in the orangey-yellow sky. She is thanking about the cloud’s familiar shape. She has seen the animals shape during her time hunting. The cloud stretched out to two long sides, with a large circle shape as the body, a pointy mouth and a feathery shape tail. Both looked beautiful flying in the sky.

(Note: the cloud is shaped like a bird)

The sounds in her ears were buzzing. Everyone was being so loud, running around. Everything became fuzzy for the confused apprentice who slowly slunk away when her question went unanswered and only more commotion was happening. Flashes of pelts moved past her in a hurry, her paws tripping over themselves as she got out of the way each and every time. Flashes of red, past those moving furs, met her contrasting sky blue gaze. The newly made apprentice got a heavy, wrong feeling in the pit of her stomach each time the slightest drop of the bright red colour peeked through the crowd who was trying to desperately to cover it; it seemed as such, at least. The only sound that broke through, eventually, was the sound of her name. Vixenpaw. Blue eyes went wide as they searched for the owner of this voice, mouth lightly agape. Who was it? A leaving figured caught her eye, moving away slowly with a heap of other apprentices, some of which she (hardly) recognised the names of. Uncertainty prickled her fur when she looked back to the frenzied warriors. But she made herself small, lips pressing together in a pout, as she suspiciously edged toward and closer to this much older feline… Foxpaw, was it? She glanced up with a daring eye, as if she’d fall the moment she lifted her gaze. And soon enough, they were led inside the large but decidedly icky den of the apprentices. It was mesmerising.

Distracted, Vixenpaw edged forward with her eyes now lifted to the roof, watching it in amazement with a mouth now truly agape. It was so big! She could hardly believe it! And the nests; they were almost twice her size! With a curious paw she poked the hem of on of the nests, pulling it back quickly with light disdain and surprise written across her face when she was met with old moss and the dirty smell of sweat. YucK.

Distracted, the young kit-apprentice barely noticed Cinderpaw’s words. It wasn’t until she heard some bigger cat speak that her head wiped around once more with a look of surprised confusion. Padding up to this feline who had suggested a game of hide and seek, she looked up at them with round eyes.
“I thought we were going to learn about StarClan!”
The fluffy kit complained lightly, head tilting in mild confusion and disappointment. It wasn’t as if she got a clear answer however, as soon enough the big cat from before- Foxpaw- addressed this very feline. Not knowing what’s been happening, Vixenpaw couldn't be bothered in remembering their name. In fact, Vixenpaw felt weird. Very weird. Everyone was talking around her, not looking at her, and she didn’t even know what was happening. How was that fair? The fluffy spotted apprentice slunk away and ploffed down somewhere further back, watching the crowd interact with a pout and a frown.

Her ears swivelled. Round eyes lifted from the ground. Curiously, she looked at Darkpetal who had begun speaking moments before. She was speaking of something unfamiliar to the new apprentice, something she had never heard of before. Died.
“What is 'died'?”
The kitten pipped up with genuine curiosity, fixated so on that single term she barely registered the rest of what Darkpetal was saying. Something about StarClan and a Dark Forest, and good and bad, and coming back? What?
“Is ‘died’ like a trip?”
She pipped up again, head tilting as her voice grew squeakier in confused curiosity.
“Darkpetal how do you ‘died’?”
Finally getting back up to her paws, fluffy paws wriggled themselves closer to the big cat, past all the other kits and apprentice, eyes staring up at the warrior with an unfaltering gaze and curiosity. She didn’t like being confused.

@Jayvines

Featherclaw only intended to go hunting, but she got carried away… thankfully, after finding Morningkit, who decided to follow her. The two walked with each other, waiting for Sparrowstar. “Sparrowstar?” Morningkit meowed,”Me and Featherclaw came back.”

“Vixenpaw,” Darkpetal meowed,”When a cat dies, that means they’re no longer with us. It’s like sleep, but when something bad happens, and you won’t be able to wake up. But very rarely, you are. Dead cats either go to StarClan if they’re good, or the Dark Forest if they’re bad.” He hoped that Vixenpaw did not share the same naiivity as Acornkit.

"Yo, Firepetal! [ @Sunbabyx - ! ]" she called over to the warrior. "Instead of Nightsong and Softsky, you'll just be joined by Asterdance [ @x ghostie ]. Hope that's cool." And now for her own patrol. "Hazelpaw [ @NinjaBloss ], Goldenpaw [ @Quasar ]. Let's head out."

(will be tossing a post up quickly to smallpines! no need to reply here)

Firepetal
Firepetal swung around, and nodded at the deputy’s words. “Alright!” she turned and went looking for Asterdance.

With guilt, Woodpaw realised that this was the second time he had gotten lost in ThunderClan territory. He knew that he could blame it on his mentor, but he knew that would be wrong. He should not have tried exploring the territory alone. His belly growled loudly. When was the last time he had eaten? Probably a while back, last night maybe? Suppose I should try hunting, the brown apprentice thought. He could smell mouse, but it seemed stale. Wait, was that Sparrowstar? The damp air brought the scent of his leader to him, and with it, a sense of relief. He wasn't lost after all! He crashed through the bushes toward her. "Sparrowstar! Sparrowstar!" He called out. @Jayvines
