Adderpaw listened as the meeting went on and found it annoying how many cats decided to disrespect the clan as so. She wished that she could do something for this clan, something greater than she already was. The young apprentice wanted more than anything than to become a deputy. Adderpaw wasn't sure how she was going to show Birdsnow that she was going to be the right cat for the job but she just had to keep trying. Had to keep helping the clan. Till she was dead that was what she was going to do.
When it came to be known that there was no official medicine cat being picked due to the ones she was thinking of not listening to orders Adderpaw had to wonder. Who was the cat she was thinking of making the medicine cat apprentice before the events happened. What orders did they break to make her change her mind. Her eyes drifted over the cats that were called out for doing stupid stuff and she didn't see anything medicine caty in them at all. Maybe in another life Adderpaw would be a medicine cat, but not this one.
Finally she looked over back to Seabreeze after having grown silent for a long time. "I wonder if someone else will show up to be a promising full time medicine cats. At this rate I'd throw myself at the door if I wasn't destined for deputy." Adderpaw murmured to the warrior. Herbs and blood. That seemed like a life to lead... Being closer to Starclan made it even worse. "There is so much work to do in this clan but so little in the amount of cats that can keep up with what is needed..." She trailed off for a little bit to think. "Not once in my life I have seen this clan not be a hot mess and I think I'm going to have to wait a long time."

Adderpaw's mew distracted Seabreeze from his dizzying thoughts and he looked to the apprentice, taking an extra moment to process what she said to him. He agreed, who would show up capable of being a medicine cat. He thought of his quick lessons with Spottedstream and then to the stars that awoke him in the night. Seabreeze knew some herbs, a good few even he admits but medicine cat? There were likely better options than him. It made him think for a moment who would've been, Birdsnow mentioned would've been if not for them breaking rules.
He shouldn't gossip even in his mind, it was Birdsnow's decision and he agrees with their need of a temporary cat. Seabreeze would continue learning medicine but only ever use the knowledge in the case if it was needed. Though...Seabreeze looked up to the leader, looking regal despite her injuries and the poor apprentice besides her, if she happened to call upon him he would answer. No way that would happen though.
"I don't care who the next medicine cat is as long as they stay put and serve the clan well." Riverclan needed stability during this time not more fleeting leaders or medicine cats or medicine cat apprentices. The tom took a deep breath and continued to speak, "I trust Birdsnow's judgement, whoever she picks will do brilliantly."
"I hope you get deputy as well, I think you would serve the clan well, though maayybbeeeee not this meeting." Seabreeze added with a small, light hearted laugh. Though the sandy grey-blue tom sobered as the rest of Adderpaw's sentence processed in his head, "It has been rough for Riverclan, but I trust in Birdsnow, she'll lead us to greatness again and perhaps...later, with you by her side."
Flicking his ears, Seabreeze continued to speak, ignoring how his mind started to whisper that he was speaking too much and that Adderpaw was likely starting to get annoyed, "After the den, which you haven't shared your roof idea yet, maybe we should go out for herbs or hunting if you don't have plans. I worry that with the amount of warriors injured the clan will struggle to feed itself, but that's silly, Riverclan is strong."

"Ah yes my greatness will just have to wait a little while longer." Adderpaw joked back before letting out a little sigh. "Don't take anything I say as Birdsnow not doing a good job its just there's a lot of deep rooted issues that will take a lot of time to mend.... I hope I am there one day to help fix those issues." Adderpaw hummed. She wondered if she was doing enough just as an apprentice or if she would need a position of power to do some real influence. Having so many cats who would look up to you would make getting things done easier, Adderpaw hoped.
Ah right the den. "My plans are a secret till we get back to work." She mewed with a little devilish grin knowing that she was being difficult on purpose. "Though going on a gathering mission does sound like a very good idea. Recent patrols just came in with prey so maybe we should go out and get even more herbs? There's so many injured that I can only imagine how quickly we are going through herbs." Adderpaw thought. She was worried that they were going to end up running out of prey or herbs despite how many healthy cats they sent out.

Seabreeze huffed at the apprentice, then stuck his tongue out at her playfully, "I take it back, no Adder deputy-" Then anxiety snuck in and he quickly stapled onto the joke, "I was kidding by the way, sorry, I- you probably knew I was joking but, umm, still. Sorry." It was a shame, he almost forgot about his thoughts for a bit and was able to be normal for a few minutes but alas Seabreeze wasn't normal and will never be normal again. The tom turned his attention to the next thing,
"An herb patrol would be good, it's likely that they would need cobwebs, marigold for sure but we could check in with Marigoldleap about what is running low. After the den of course, I hope to get the roof done and get herbs before tomorrow but...we'll see if time allows that." Thyme likely as well but that'll be after they check and know for sure. Should they try and invite others as well? He looked around the warriors, apprentices, and other members of the clan that surrounded him, perhaps.
"Should we invite some other cats as well? It may be quicker and easier if it were just us to worry about though." Seabreeze has heard of many a patrol disbanding or members getting lost or some patrols not returning at all. It was sometimes sad, what Riverclan turned into, or has been ever since stability was lost in the higher ranks. Birdsnow was different though, she would fix everything on pawstep at a time and he and Adderpaw and everyone else would be there to help her. Speaking of, "I know it's a bit hypocritical for me to say but things will get better, we just have to help fix things one thing at a time. First the warriors den and then next thing we know we have a striving and thriving clan, strongest of them all!" The sandy grey-blue tom exaggerated slightly.

___...*| Marigoldleap |*...___ [ She/Her - Riverclan Queen -
Purrks: The Collector and Go With The Flow ]
Listening in on the meeting as Birdsnow began to continue. Her heart ached as the clanmates they lost were named. It should have never happened. They'd still be with them if only Thunderclan had kept to themselves until Riverclan was ready. Rats were all Thunderclan were. Shadowclan was starting to sound better or maybe just as bad. As a cat who had lived there all her life probably just as bad, but at her cousin Dawnstar would make sure her clanmates were well off before doing a raid.
Marigoldleap popped her head up to look around for the two cats called out for attacking their clanmates. The one thing she couldn't understand was cats wanting to harm the cats they grew up with. The large scarred molly could never think of hurting anyone in her clan. Some may be annoying, but they were a clan.
Now it was onto a kit who decided they were an apprentice, but she paid no mind to that. She could understand having to wait for a ceremony, but that was no excuse. Leaders always have the final say. Now it was onto the medicine cats or the still lack of. It seemed those who Birdsnow thought were good enough to because problems there was none this meeting. Though she hadn't expected what came next. Eyes were on her and she forced herself to look at Birdsnow. Her temporary medicine cat? She then looked at her clanmates, seeing eyes on her then her amber eyes met her son Cloudheart. He looked as if he wanted her to take it. It was only for a while. It couldn't hurt.
She saw many injured cats from the battle. They and those who didn't get injured needed a medicine cat even for just a little while until one was named. She had to do whatever it was to keep her clanmates safe. Marigoldleap felt it was good for the clan. She had to help them. "I'd be honored to help my clanmates, so yes I can be a temporary medicine cat until you find the right cats.", she replied with a respectful dip of her head. She really hoped she did the right thing.
On a really good stride on here and Barleypaw is really close to getting her post counts finished for her training. If there is anyone who needs a cat to help with anything feel free to VM or pm. I want her to be more active along her clanmates.
Really? Riverclanners attacking Riverclanners! That made no sense! She couldn't believe it! At a time like this? Disaster. The younger molly glanced worriedly up at Birdsnow. Sighing softly, she awaited Birdsnow's future words.
Maggotkit
The young kit was still slightly shaken from the recent raid, but he was glad he wasn't a part of it. He could imagine how terrible he would be in battle. The young kit preferred exploring the world anyway.

Duststorm puffed in alarm. She hadn't attacked anyone... She had tried to look intimidating at the start, fluffing her fur out, hissing and spitting, swiping her claws in the air... Did she catch someone's fur?
The only moment it could have looked like that was when she jumped between Dusklion and a ThunderClan warrior.
Looking over her shoulder to Teardrop, she shrugged, nervously padding to the leader's den.

Birchpaw had passed Duststorm on the way back to her sister, Doedapple.
Noticing her Clanmate´s nervous look, Birchpaw blinked warmly at the warrior and paused to murmur quietly into Duststorm´s ear.
´´It´s best to keep a positive demeanor, or else Birdsnow´ll never forgive you,´´ Birchpaw´s gaze was warm and friendly. ´´Otherwise, you better be cooking up a reason for why you attacked your own Clanmates during the battle. I have a feeling Birdsnow won´t want to discuss whether or not your actions were intentional.´´
Birchpaw flashed Mintslip a sympathetic look, as well, before turning back to Duststorm.
´´I do believe that Birdsnow said to head to her den after the meeting, so if you´d two like, you can come and sit with Doedapple and I for the rest of its duration.´´
Birchpaw gave a warm-hearted purr. ´´Relax and try your best to keep your temper cool with Birdsnow. She isn´t a cat you want to have an attitude with - especially since it is right after a raid. Admit you made a mistake and she may - just may - lighten up.´´
The she-cat slunk back over to Doedapple, looking back to see if Duststorm and Mintslip would follow.

a dark blueish grey bengal-patterned she cat with silver eyes
minkpaw listened silently, she had expected the raid to be one of the first topic birdsnow would address, but the list of clanmates that hadnt survived thunderclans coldblooded attack was still saddening. her head dipped in respect and grief and briefly send starclan a prayer for each of the cats, Moonfoot, Pricklefoot, Troutfall, Duckshade, Creekpelt and Flutterpaw, may their souls rest easy. her head snapped back up at the sound of birdsnows words, thunderclans attack had been cold blooded and punching them down while they were already on the ground, but attacking a clanmate?? she turned her head to eye the cats responsible for causing even more harm for riverclan, duststorm and mintslip. more exiles, more cats dead, she let out a silent sigh, they felt like moons passed since the last meeting and not just a few weeks.
her head turned back to look at birdsnow while she talked momentarily before following her leaders gaze to a kit that had apparently pretended to be apprenticed already. at least this wasnt as saddening as the other news, it was just..weird really. but the thought of a kit being out during a battle made her queasy anyway, hopefully someone had noticed before anything bad happened..still in thought about sunkit her ears pricked at low murmuring a few taillenghts behind her, loud enough to pick up but too quiet for her process before birdsnow addressed it. their leader was right, no matter who stood on the floodstone they had the right to be heard, especially if it was their leader, their only high rank. and even if they personally didnt want to listen they should shut up and just leave, that was not what a proper warrior would do, but a proper warrior wouldnt speak badly of their leader during a meeting. momentarily grateful for the way her mother had raised her to be a proper part of the clan and to never uselessly disrespect her leaders, she almost didnt catch birdsnows displeased connotation when describing her medicine cat candidates had gone against her orders. had cobwebpaw done anything to make birdsnow mad? marigoldleap stepping up to temporarily aid in healing the clan was a huge relief though, the past day had been rough and hopefully marigoldleap could correct any mistakes they made. she turned to marigoldleap, chosing to give her a kind smile and offer her support without outright cheering, this probably wasnt the proper time to cheer anyway. perhaps marigoldleap could teach her a bit more if minkpaw told her about the experimental treatment she had had to resort to..
