Because if she was pushed into some stream or stuff - which Quickass would probably do, she could one up him. Hmm. "Well I see, you're obviously still a fishhead, and your fishpprentice is like... a scale? I don't know fish anatomy not that I'd want to know anyway because like, fish is soooo disgusting and I wouldn't want to get it anywhere near myself. Like the smell? I don't know how you can even stand cleaning yourself because your fur is literally just like bursting with the smell of rotten fish." She scrunched her face up that that, then quickly looked around to see if Quickass was anywhere near her. Which he wasn't. Not that she'd seen him ever since they arrived at the gathering. "Well its nice meeting ya! Quickass is probably not gonna bother pick me up for going home to Windclan so I'll probably just stay here until he remembers I exist. He might not so I don't really know. But did you offer to teach me to swim? I don't like the water but like... that would totally be amazing to do if he ever would shove me into a stream!"

Brightwhisker pulled himself together, gut hurting from the force of his laughter. And just like that, the apprentice was speaking again and he couldn't help the flicker of nostalgia, Ravenmist acted a lot like her when they were younger.

"Oh?" the tom brought a paw up to his nose and gave a cursory sniff. Huh, how'd he miss getting that out of his fur? "Huh, so I do, guess i'm going to have to take a dip in the river before i go to sleep tonight. Can't have me stinking up the warriors den with fish rot."

"I suppose we're use to the scent and taste of fish the same way you Windclan cats are use to the open skies of the moor. It terrifies the rest of us, but you guys would probably kill whatever bird of prey tried to swoop down and grab you, what do you think Harepaw?" he turned back to his silent apprentice.

The subject changed as fast as he answered and he blinked. Huh, did he unintentionally offer? I mean, he could see the usefulness of it. One less cat dying because they couldn't swim. You know what...It honestly might be just one more thing to distract him from his mate. Busy mind and all that.

"You know what Pumapaw, you got yourself a deal. If it doesn't interfere with Harepaws trainging I have no issue helping to make sure a young cat doesn't have to worry about drowning. Its a slow, painful death, not fun." he shrugged with a chuckle at the way she talked about her mentor.

"Maybe find him before he has a chance to leave without you, give you extra time to mess with him?" he offered, waving his tail good bye to her.

Nightpaw lightly chuckled/giggled at his comment about his mentor- althoug it did make her wonder: why would his name be green fur if his fur isn't green? Hm.. maybe he has green eyes And a thick fur? Could be- but oh well.
"mi-mines Stor-Stornli-ily" the young molly replyed, looking back at the other apprentice "sh-she's real-really ni-ice" she followed with a small smile before pausing a slight moment "so-- fro-from wha-at cl-an are yo-ou?" Nightpaw asked curiously, tilting her head to the side. She was almost certain he wasn't from ShadowClan, and was curious to know from what clan he did come. Maybe she should have been able to tell by his scent but-- she never really paid much attention to scents.. that was something she might have to work on actually.

Letting out a mild soft laugh, something he'd done a lot more lately he reached over and nuzzled his head against Daisy's with soft affection. Then at her question he directed his direct green gaze against her, "What does having an air like Daisy mean?"
He wanted to have it explained but... despite this being Daisy's sister who obviously knew about him and Daisy from the way she was acting and asking such direct questions regarding them and not asking any questions... Well before she asked her first. "Is it the issues that apparently you're able to smell?" he rolled his eyes at that. He was in a good mood today, having hang out with Cornkit just before and now meeting Daisy..

The tom was much smaller than she thought he would be. When Daisy had come home his scent was all over her, she had assumed that maybe she met one of those large, protective types. The calico almost wanted to snort, she and Daisy were a good bit larger than him. It would be worrying when paired with that skinny frame of his.

But Daisy let him touch her and she showed she had no qualms about being close enough to brush pelts together. She wondered if Daisy saw that look in the toms eyes when he looked her way. Probably not, she loved Daisy, but she wasn't as good at picking up emotions.

"It's not a smell." Rosedapple flicked her tail and pointed a paw to her head. "Spend enough time with a cat with ongoing issues and you just kind of...learn to pick them out. You ok with me coming closer? Any issues with touch, volume of voice, or body language I should avoid?" she questioned, pointedly keeping a comfortable distance.

"Okay. So Icestar is the 'big scary' excuse of a leader, and a huge petty wreck. She's the leader of Shadowclan. Lionstar's your leader, I think, judging by your smell. Twilightstar is okay, but she's pretty boring. She uses all these fancy words. And Duskstar's a big meanie. Honestly, Thunderclan has gotten WEAK over the years."

"Wow, I think Lionstar is a great leader, Icestar sucks, Twilightstar is ok, and Duskstar is annoying." Foxpaw said after thinking for a bit. She liked this new cat, she was cool.

He glanced down at her paw, an eyebrow quirked pompously, before lifting his cold gaze to meet her eyes again. "A good day, huh?" he echoed, voice falsely thoughtful. "Yes, I suppose it could be to one who doesn't stick out their neck for their Clan everyday." Bah. Medicine cats. They were weak and selfish, the lot of them. Always hiding in their dens behind their piles of herbs and made-up omens. "I'll 'take a day off' when you actually begin to do something useful for a change. Tell me, have you had any real prophecies yet? Or do you still have to make them up to feel as if you're accomplishing something important?" A smirk was beginning to tug at the corner of his mouth.

His next statement wasn’t lost on her and she found herself smiling down at her paws. “I suppose so.” Heathernose herself hadn’t expected to be so susceptible to kind words and smiles, but she was starved for kindness in a world that had begun to seem rather bleak. It was wonderful to meet another cat as kind as she tried to be.

[sorry about the delay ^^"]

"Hmm, I do think I prefer Thornsprint. I sure am glad I’m not prickly." He let out a short chuckle, along with a smile. He stopped short as she spoke again, and thought. Of course she picked it up, and seemed a bit keen on the idea. Who wouldn’t? He started with a few licks to his chest fur, to give an impression of slight embarassment. "Well, that is... hmm..." This was one of the few times he was actually unsure of what to say. Words were at a loss for him, and he couldn’t grab the right ones. "Would you like to be my rose, Heathernose?"

[for clarification, you can take it as if he’s asking her to be his mate or just that he likes her — no specific intended meaning, interpret it as you will!]

Myrtlepaw slightly gasped as he watched Doepaw flick some sand at the obnoxious Riverclan apprentice. On one paw, he was slightly amused by the other exchange, but on the other he was unaware of this side of Doepaw. He had to try very hard to stop from laughing... he did feel a bit bad, Ripplepaw was just trying to be friendly, even if she was killing his ears. It had to be worse for Doepaw though, she relied so much on her hearing... Maybe it was for the better. "That... wasn't... very nice... Doepaw... but... but Ripplepaw... did... hurt my... ears... too." The russet tom gazed at the other apprentices with some caution, in preparation for another verbal assault. "It was... nice... meeting... all... all of you... though... I just... just wish... some... of you... were quiet."

(all good!)
Heathernose giggled and responded, “I am too!” The feeling of loneliness that had been following her everywhere seemed to be dissipating fast in his presence and Heathernose offered a sweet smile, not wanting the tom to end their conversation and leave her alone. She found flirting to be exhilarating and she couldn’t help feeling excited by the handsome cat’s attention. She was surprised by his question, though, and not entirely sure what he meant. Her chest fluttered, though, and she found herself wanting to agree to anything with this tom. Yet, she didn’t know what he meant and couldn’t quite become the mate of someone she’d just met. Still, she purred, “I would love to be.” The answer surprised her as it came out, but she wanted to continue talking to Thornsprint. Besides, she wasn’t promising to be his mate, merely to continue talking to him.

Blinking, he nods slowly. "You could say that, I guess," he meows after another moment of stupidity and fluff in the brain. Was she really commenting on that, of all things? "Although in our defense... We were ransacked without notice." He probably shouldn't have been telling her, but no one was around to tell him so. "What about you, though? Have you been doing better?" They hadn't left off on fantastic terms... And Nettlespark still kicked himself for it, but maybe she would be okay with putting that behind her. He sure as hell wished he could.

[ @Moonraven ]

He was being weird, Deadpool quickly runs over what she has said in her head and felt like it had been pretty normal. Was he acting like this because she had half scolded him last time? Well, she wasn't going to apolo— yes she would even though it hadn't been her fault. So long as he stopped doing the staring thing it was making her nervous. Everyone knew a nervous Deadpool was no good. The chimera erratic heartbeat settles down after he finally gets some words out. She decided not to comment about how ShadowClan had more or less done the same thing to ThunderClan. It wasn't her business she guessed.
"Better is me. Hurts all gone, tail still pain." She commented, glancing over her back to her tail which she was doing her best to keep still. "WindClan no trouble better family is, bigger new family." She purred, delighted about the additional cats WindClan has been taking in. "Nettlespark owies?" She inquired about his injuries, withholding the fact that she wanted to know about a few of his other clanmates. Whiskernose, Ravenvine, and his apprentice in particular, but he got weird with Whiskernose last time. It was probably just a tom thing, or maybe just a Nettle thing, though she wasn't willing to 'poke the bear' as the saying goes at a gathering.

Whispertail looked around. Suddenly, he spotted a beautiful she-cat. He gasped. @WhiteStripes
