"You stay, I stay." She mews softly.

Mintflower wasn't sure what she was doing anymore; her mind was being torn apart by her internal conflicts of both her emotions and her loyalties. Did she even belong in Riverclan anymore? No! She needed to escape these thoughts...she needed a distraction that wasn't Flametail. Something to remind her what she loved about being a Riverclan warrior. But what? She searched the clearing for something, anything, to take her mind off the swirling pit of anxiety. But nothing came...ugh, this was frustrating! Pale blue eyes searched the clearing almost erratically before she finally settled on taking a few deep breaths and gathering herself together. She was overthinking things, that was all. She was just as good a warrior to Riverclan as any of the cats sat around her. Bet they're not breaking the warrior code though, are they? Her brain was quick to remind her. Her loyalties should be solely to Riverclan, not to a Shadowclanner-turned-loner. She was complicating things, making them messy for herself. She knew it, and if they existed, so did Starclan.
She stood, pale form small in amongst the other warriors who stood far taller when next to her. Her size was almost comparable with that of an apprentice, but her walk held enough confidence and self-assuredness, even when she was neither of these things, to solidify her place as a warrior. She provided for Riverclan, fought for them when it was needed, and she truly believed she'd give her life for her clan if the day ever came. So why was she so conflicted? The small molly made her way in the direction of the territory, determined to find some way to keep herself occupied; perhaps some fishing could do, now that the rivers were thawing? She'd figure something out.

~Frozen’paw~
Today was a quieter day, the camp wasn’t very overwhelming like it normally was, everything was quiet, even those pesky birds seemed to have taken a break today. Normally Frozen’paw would take this as a day to relax and get some much needed sleep, but his paws itched gone get outside, plus he was ten moons and had so many things he needed to do within the next two moons if he wanted to be a warrior by then. Firstly he needed a hunting and a battle lesson, a swimming lesson was also needed but he was quite embarrassed by the fact that he was a ten moon old riverclan cat who hadn’t been taught to swim yet. But that was a problem for another day, he could ask Raven’claw or Coral’splash for that.
He had exited the camp with no clear thing in his mind on what to do, his intent was to get in some battle or hunting training but he hadn’t stopped to get a warrior for said training. Of course the thing he’d forget was a trainer to train him.
He gazed over in one direction and noticed Mint’flower, he’d spotted the warrior around but hadn’t really paid much attention to her, maybe she could help him? A training session didn’t have to be done by his mentor and an outside idea could be helpful. But his paws grew heavy and he became to anxious to move or speak, any words caught in his throat and he didn’t dare move. Calm down Frozen’paw, you can do this, todays a good day, your not overwhelmed, today should be easy, just go ask if she can show you a battle move of something
The ble-grey Tom took a deep breath before hesitantly padding over to the she-cat. “H-hey! Uhm, hi! I- uh-” the words caught in his throat. Starclan help him.

[frozenpaw is so cute aww]
Mintflower hadn't been paying all that much attention to her surroundings when Frozenpaw approached, and for a moment she didn't even realise that the apprentice was talking to her. Or, attempting to talk to her. She almost walked straight past him, but luckily caught his attempts just in time to stop dead in her tracks and cast her pale gaze towards him, her creamy form not standing much taller than him - if at all, but she definitely told herself she was a few inches taller at least. A she-cat could dream. "Hello, Frozenpaw," She greeted, stepping in where the younger tom could not manage - Mintflower didn't have it in her to judge, after all, the two had hardly interacted before so she imagined it might be a little overwhelming seeking her out. Wait, why had Frozenpaw sought her out? She was certainly not his mentor, nor was she his friend, so this was odd at best. The molly managed a polite smile as if to encourage the apprentice before her to speak up, to offer up an explanation for this interaction, but when nothing came, she took to asking herself, "Is there something I can help you with?" Her voice was soft but firm enough to hopefully insight an answer.
She found it strange an apprentice out in the territory without a warrior accompanying them, but if she remembered rightly he was 10 moons old and most apprentices that age were more than trustworthy enough. She had always snuck out to the territory as an apprentice, and she wasn't much a fan of hypocrisy. So whatever the reason, Frozenpaw's current predicament was safe with her. She awaited his answer, a little impatiently mind you, but she ensured her expression remained neutral and calm; she didn't want to come off as rude. Frozenpaw probably just had a question or something, it wasn't uncommon for apprentices to seek out warriors who were not their mentors for help. Maybe this could be the thing to distract her? She continued waiting, small form turned towards him.

Sorry if this is kinda short I just finished a day long passage on a boat and am kinda tired lol)

The apprentice couldn’t help but notice Mint’flower almost walk straight past him but she did infact turn to greet him. Oh starclan, how did he ask for help? Uuughhhh. “Hi- uh. Yeah actually, I haven’t been able to find Coral’splash and uh- was wondering if you could give me some uhm- b-battle pointers?” Frozen’paw was surprised he hasn’t stuttered more, pointers wasn’t exactly training but it would do right? He had kinda half lied, he could go to Coral’splash at any time but the warrior as of late had been kind of stand-off-ish, quiet, he actually couldn’t find him half the time, that was true. He wondered what had happened to his brother/mentor.

He tried to be quick with his reply, not knowing the warrior well he wasn’t sure how she would respond to cats being slow, many warriors would get impatient and sometimes even snappy if he took extra time to process anything which, could be annoying but this was warrior life, you had to be fast thinking.

Amberclover once again found herself looking to nature to find inspiration for her kit's names. Blue? No too one-sided. Brave? No way to be selfcentered. It would take a long time for Amber to find the right name or names.

Oh. That was awfully cute. He never received a death threat before, "How charming. I do encourage you to try, " Wormbite rumbles in a taunting tone, flexing his claws. He had full confidence he had far more experience than this .. mouse. At least this was fair game. His notched ear twitched at the sound of Rat jumping, he didn't even throw the first move. Wormbite skids to the side, lifting a paw to lash out at where the rouge should be. Aiming for what he believed could be his side, whether or not it fell through - he would take the brief moment of vulnerable to attempt to slam his own body against Rat's.

Koifur

Koifur padded quietly along the marshy land, trying to scent any prey. She sat down, in front of a big oak tree, resting her body before taking off again. (OPEN)

@xath (Idk if this is where I post this)
Mintleaf walked around the territory with their apprentice. "This is Firefly Cove. Lets not get to close, now." He didn't actually think of it as dangerous, but they wanted to get this done quickly, he was tired.

They are SO good, but I sure your favorite prey is REALLY really really good too!" The grey warrior wondered if she was talking too much, but she didn't care much. She wasn't being too loud, rather quiet, she was being, actually. "Are you tired of me talking? I can stop talking." Admittedly, she didn't want to stop talking, but she could if Frecklecry wanted her to.

FRECKLECRY

Frecklecry maneuvered Fierceheart towards and out of the camp entrance as best as she could, for fear that the molly would run out of air if she kept standing in the same place and talking that much. She truly didn't mind the talking - on the contrary, it was a pleasant switch-up to find someone so aggressively willing to put themselves out there.

"Let's just see where the day takes us, hm?" she replied, glancing at the immediate surroundings and taking a cursory sniff of the air. She didn't catch any particular fresh scents on the breeze and so kept walking.

"Oh I'm partial to just about any type of fish. Fishing in general is just more fun to me than trying to catch something on land, which I suppose gives me a little bit of a bias but oh well. No- No you don't need to stop talking, don't worry about that a bit."

Another quick glance around and nothing interesting caught her eye, "We could head to the river and fish if you like?"

The duo's departure into the territory was awfully late on Morninglily's standards. Blizzardsky had been a no-show, which just left her and Saltpaw... a new apprentice. The new warrior couldn't help the anxiety that gripped her belly as they trekked deeper into the territory, looking for a good hunting spot; she certainly didn't feel ready to be left in charge of an apprentice alone.

As the scent of a vole hit her nose, Morninglily paused, looking towards Saltpaw. "Has your mentor taught you to hunt on land yet, or in the water? If not, I can teach you." She smiled towards the much younger cat, willing herself to seem collected. Kids were smarter than many warriors imagined, and could quite easily pick up on her stress if she didn't swallow it enough.
