Honeykit wagged her tail, pleased. Then she looked around.
"Hey, where's my brother?" she asked, then sighed "Sure, he must be in the elder's den" she looked at Ravenkit "can you help me look for him?"
Ravenkit smiled faintly. "Ok!" he squeaked.

Cloudkit sat up and looked at his sister.
"I'm bored, why did you bring me here? Nobody invited us" he meowed.
Honeykit wagged her tail
"Today I'm going to teach you to hunt" she meowed proudly.
Cloudkit let out a giggly purr.
"hunt? and since when do you know how to hunt?"
"It shouldn't be that hard" she raised one of her paws "I guess we have to be as loud as possible, so the prey knows we're there and they freeze in fear"
"That makes sense" Cloudkit looked at his sister, impressed.
"You also have to go against the wind" she continued "you know: that our smell reaches the prey"
"But...won't that scare them away?"
"mouse brain! prey isn't that smart"
"wow, how do you know so many things?" Cludkit wagged his tail.
"Emm... I don't know, I guess" the kit confessed.
Oleander sighed. Dammit, is everyone my age that stupid? "No," she meowed, "Being really loud will scare them away. So will your scent. You have to be really quiet, and make sure prey doesn't smell you. I know how to hunt because I've hunted before. I can show you how to hunt, if you'd like." She cleaned her paws, waiting for their response.

Sedgestorm heard Wormbite call for apprentice's to come for some battle training. Feeling like he'd been rather useless lately and wishing to be of some use to his clan, so he stood and trotted over to the group. "I'd like to help keep an eye on the apprentices."
His eyes scanned to see how many apprentices had showed interest in the battle training.
There only seemed to be 3 from what he could tell, one of these apprentices included Stonepaw.
Good, it would be important for their healer to know how to defend himself if it came to it.
He waved his tail in greeting to the Medicine Cat.
Sleekshine
Ever feel like you’re a kittypet when you laze around camp? That’s what Sleekshine felt like. She was dozing under the shade of a large plant, eyes blinking slowly. The heat seemed to be getting to her head. She felt so comfortable in the sun yet couldn’t help feeling guilty at herself. She was a warrior! Supposed to be helping the clan thrive! It was her job to care for the clan! Yet the sun seemed too good… she was torn by the two options.
“Let’s just get this over with…” she growled to herself before hoisting herself up. Gazing around the clearing, she spotted the smoky pelt of Beansprout. “Hey Beansprout! Care to go for a hunt with me?” she called, gesturing to the entrance of the camp.
The warrior had been sitting on the outskirts of camp, keeping a watchful eye on things. Though he was focused on the comings and goings of his Clan, he was also deep in thought. So, the sudden appearance of his Clanmate spooked Beansprout a bit, but he quickly recovered, licking his chest fur a few times to cover his embarrassment. Oh, a hunt? "Of course!" The siamese smiled and got to his paws, feeling excited. "Any place in particular you want to go?" Beansprout asked with a quizzical tilt of his head. As he had been asked, he would let Sleekshine take the lead for this hunting expedition.

PebbleSplash was sitting by herself, grooming in the bright sunlight, making sure to clean up every spot… It had been almost a moon since she had returned home and StarClan, wasn’t she grateful…! While locked away in the two leg box, she had promised herself to get more involved with her clan if she had been lucky enough to return. With a big thanks to her powerful prince, PikeStar, here she was, home… Home…
What PebbleSplash wanted to be a dream come true, a happily ever after, had only just broken apart… Not many days after her return, dogs went on a rampage through the RiverClan camp, killing many of her clan mates… The pain she felt for them stabbed into her like fangs of a fox, and the sadness she felt was no different than how she had felt when losing her sister many moons ago… The beautiful blue-eyed molly was utterly devastated.
It might’ve been okay, but the rise of emotions within everyone had driven everyone apart. She wondered what her fallen clan mates thought about the situation, and wished she could apologize to them for this never ending tragedy… PebbleSplash closes her eyes and lays down on a stone, getting ready to meditate for an hour or two… She needed a breather… ——————
The warrior couldn't bear to leave camp at this point, at least not alone. There was enough hustle and bustle to keep his mind off of the grief that lay heavy in his heart like a stone. Beansprout took it upon himself to note all who came and left the camp, perhaps briefly greet a cat or two as they went about their day. But someone else caught his attention. Pebblesplash, who was grooming herself and then lay down and closed her eyes. A prickle of remorse shot through him; Beansprout wished he could get to know Pebblesplash better. The last time -- and quite possibly the only time they had interacted was during the last meeting. With a newfound determination, the siamese set off in Pebblesplash's direction, clearing his throat to hopefully alert her of his presence before he spoke.
"Hey. I know the last time we spoke wasn't exactly... on the best of terms, but I just wanted to talk a bit, maybe get to know each other?" His head tilted as his voice raised in question. "I know I... may not have exactly made the best impression at the last meeting. Emotions were all over the place and it was chaotic. But I do want you -- and everyone else -- to know that I really care for RiverClan, and seeing it the way it was at the meeting just kinda snapped something in me. And I snapped too. So I'm sorry for maybe not making a good impression, but I do stand by what I said."

Pebblesplash’s ears folded as the voice rang through her ears… She decided to listen, though refusing to open her eyes due to her slightly relaxed state, Nothing personal! As she listened, her head tilted… An apology…? Lashing her tail a little bit, her eyes opened as she met his gaze calmly… “I get it, we’re all upset… I’ve been beating myself up because I wasn’t physically well enough to fight the dogs…” While speaking, she let out a quivered sigh…
“But,” she cleared her throat, “Anger doesn’t fix anything, and the last thing GingerFrost and PikeStar needed to hear was such… Discouraging words.” PebbleSplash was an empathetic cat, you could tell that by the sadness in her gaze. “And instead of showing them the kind of improvement we need, they both felt that they weren’t good for their roles.” It was weird that a cat was able to keep eye contact for this long, especially with the emotional vulnerability in her body language.
But even so, she continued to open up… “You must admit, they achieved much more than most others could’ve, and created an environment where we felt comfortable for quite some time…” Her voice was soft, like a mothers belly, or like a nest after a long day… speaking of her voice came to a quick mumble as she said; “Maybe a little too comfortable,” raising her voice back up, she gave a slow blink… “Regardless, they don’t deserve that disrespect.”
“I’m not mad at you either, and I apologize too… I let my emotions over take me at the meeting… I will forever be loyal to Pikestar because he saved me from two legs not too long ago… He saved my life and even injured himself in the process and it would be foolish of me to ignore that strength and care, especially since he had once lived with two legs…” Her gaze broke for one moment, as she darted her eyes to her paws then back up. You could feel the heat radiating off her face…
She must have feelings for PikeStar
After an excruciatingly long awkward silence, she brought the conversation back to the original topic… “Look, I can’t make you change your opinions, that’s not what I’m asking. I can’t ask you to do anything… but, I think both GingerFrost and PikeStar deserve an apology more than I ever did,” Once she finished speaking, she let her words sink in, still keeping her gaze… ——————

Sleekshine
Squinting against the sunlight, she could make out the Siamese’s frame and she plodded over, flicking her tail in greeting before turning towards the tom. “Yes, perhaps Lionsbeach? Or would you like to go to haven springs?” she suggested, tilting her head to a side. Or maybe they could go over to the thicket and scavenge for any leftover prey.
[ @vellichor | ooc: I figured you already had a roleplay going on in lionsbeach so perhaps they could hunt in the territory? ]
SNOWKIT
fluffy white she-cat with brown and black patches and icy blue eyes. she/her
Toddling out of the nursery, a little she-cat wanted to look for something to do. Snowkit looked around with wide blue eyes, mouth open with wonder as she looked around the camp. It was real big for a little kit to see! Stumbling around, Snowkit found herself exploring not far from the nursery, wonder apparent on her face. As she walked, though, she tripped over her own paws and fell on her rump with an "oof". She frowned, though she didn't dwell on it for too long in order for her little kit mind to turn attention to her own tail. Snowkit's eyes glimmered before she began to bat at her tail, spinning around over and over to try to grab at it- finally catching it in her mouth and flopping onto her back to kick at it. As she attacked the fearsome beast, Snowkit let out squeaks and tiny, muffled ababa's.
Aha!! She had caught the weird fluffy thing!! Only issue was... it was attached to her body. Huh.
