Rosekit poked her head in the den entrance. ¨Mind if I join you?¨ She asked, padding over.

Dustwing chuckled,
”I don’t doubt it! But for a quick refresher, I’ll tell you, foxes are like coyotes, but a bit smaller and they’re russet colored,” Dustwing shivered, “When they’re hungry, they are even more lethal than a whole patrol of Warriors!”

Maybe if he didn’t have a blind apprentice he wouldn’t have left. And I think we should set something up for training. Many cats in every clan have mentors go missing and we can’t just call meetings and give other apprentices mentors that will just go missing again it take up time and some cats are to shy to ask a random warrior for training. he said thoughtfully. Many cats where to shy to ask which means less training which means less warriors

"all right, sure. I can get you set up with someone else," he answered. "Thanks for letting me know. And... if you want to gather some warriors together to organize some kind of training event, feel free. Is that all?"

"What?" He shot up, eyes narrowing and tail lashing. "By who? Do you know?"

"Hello, Moonstep told me you wanted to see me?"

"Hey there." He smiled at Fiercekit as he entered the den, and fiddled with his nest for a moment before tucking himself back in. "Yeah, I just wanted to talk to you for a bit. Moonstep told me what happened, but I just want to get some confirmation first. What, uh... why were out by yourself?"

"I just... goodness, this is difficult to say..." he sighed before continuing, letting out a shaky laugh, "Have you ever felt like someone is misinterpreting what you say, or what you do? Or even...who you are?" he spoke slowly, carefully choosing his words. He...felt like that was a good opening to what he was really planning on saying "Well, thats how Im currently feeling, and something that I have been feeling or a while, really. When you look at me, what do you see? Besides being your deputy, what to you recognize me as?"

>Buckstar<
────────

He sat up a little straighter and folded his paws over one another. "I think so, yeah," he answered slowly. Pretty much everything before the last fire had been filled with that feeling, whether it came from Flintspirit or Duskfeather or any of the other warriors.

He tilted his head at Eveningmist, trying to study her face. Whatever this was, it was... important. He could tell that much. He stayed quiet for a short moment, gathering his thoughts. "I see someone who is very brave," he began, "and very kind, and also so, so stubborn. But I also see a friend, and some who I would lay down every single one of my lives for."

As he spoke, his gaze flickered over Eveningmist's expression, trying to take in everything.

"Hey, Rainingpaw." Buckstar flashed the apprentice a grin as he entered. "Yeah, of course! We can head out right now, if you want."

"Thought you might be hubgry, so I brought up this squirrel. ", she meowed. Hopefully he would take it. It was hard for her to get up here. It was much easier when in the soft grass.

Linnetwing's voice pulled him from sleep, and he sat up with a yawn. He blinked blearily at her for a moment, trying to register her words, before mumbling a tired, "Thank you."

He pulled it closer with a forepaw and bent down to take a bite, but paused and glanced back up at Linnetwing. "Sorry, uh- did you want some, too?"

────────

He had to stifle a groan as he lifted his head to blink at Rainywhisker. Oh boy, if there was another sign or vision, he was going to scream. He didn't have the mental capacity to deal with something like that at the present moment.

Inhaling heavily through his nose, he shifted his his nest and angled his ears toward Rainywhisker. "What's up?"

He glanced up from rearranging his nest for what felt like the eight-hundredth time that day, and held back a laugh at the kit's sudden appearance. "Once you're ready," he promised. "You have to be old enough - once you are, that's when I'll get your ceremony done."

He lifted his head. "Yep, that's me. What can I help you with?"

Rosekit poked her head in the apprentices den. ¨Hello?¨ She called.

Sleepydaze

Mmm...what?

An apprentice- so unexpected. They weren't sure what they'd done to be considered fit for this duty. Maybe it was an attempt to get Sleepydaze to be responsible- or maybe they'd just been hiding their secret naptimes a little too well.

They didn't particularly see it as their place to contest, though. And it's not like they were USELESS or anything- moons and moons of sneaking around had made them an incredibly adept hunter, after all.

Plus, an apprentice could be useful...He could help them on warm days when the leaves hadn't grown quite back yet but all the snow had melted- they stuck out pretty brilliantly in the budding foliage. They assumed idly, perhaps this new apprentice could be an asset...

Ah, that'd be too cruel, wouldn't it?

Sleepydaze snapped themself out of their own thoughts, approaching the other, clumsy apprentice. They sat down close, a warm look on their face, and overall just a pleasant aura surrounding them.

"Mmh...well, lucky for you, I'm feeling quite energetic today," they quipped, languidly moving their tail from side to side, expressing a soft purr.

Rosekit smiled. He definitely put her at ease. ¨I wanted to talk to you about...¨ How I want to be the future medicine cat and I promise I wont try to murder you like Frostpaw did. ¨My friend, Leafshred and Ashpool were attacked by rogues yesterday. Leafshred is hurt, like super bad, and Ashpool didn´t come back. Leafshred is too hurt to say anything, but... I´m really worried.¨ Her voice trembled slightly.

[~Fierce~]

~Silverclaw~

Silverclaw shrugged slightly. “It could have been anything. The coyotes, badgers, foxes, twolegs. There was no sign of who or what could have done it. No scents.” Silverclaw meowed.

Wheatsong [ @Stormpoppy ]

Perking up at the mentioning of his name, Wheatsong smiled. Finally, his first apprentice. He didn't outwardly express any joy further than a smile, but the warrior felt as if his heart would explode.

Padding over to his new apprentice, he touched noses with them. "Pleased to meet you, Streampaw."
