WindClan: Life Before 2023's Fire

[Sorry about that! I forgot she had called him over hehe, I don't mind cloning either way so, it's up to you!]

Aspenbreeze slowly leaned back into her natural position, seemingly pleased... though there was a slight tinge of irritation to her gaze. Smoulderpaw had answered most everything, but he'd forgotten to actually tell her what he was interested in learning! With a puckered lip, the warrior made a mental note of that: Not a great listener. A quick and unfair judgement, but Smoulder would have to work double-time to prove his worth to her.

"So, what are you interested in learning first?" She repeated. The irritation was more evident this time, the sentence trailing off with a hiss. Had Twilightstar taught him nothing before allowing him into the clan? Certainly not any manners!

Heathernose has needed some air after the doom and gloom of the meeting. She now wandered peacefully through the grass and heather, breathing the lovely scents of budding flowers. The air held a bit of a frosty chill, but she didn’t mind and merely fluffed up her tortoiseshell fur against it. The molly sighed as she padded through the undergrowth, wishing for some happy news to come to her. She was so sick of being hungry and sad. Her clan needed happiness. She needed happiness. Heathernose could feel herself becoming more forlorn each day and she definitely didn’t want to head down that path. All the warrior needed was some color to shine through again. Trying to perk herself up, Heathernose told herself that green-leaf would be here soon and that would bring flowers and sunny days and breezes and hares. Everything good came in green-leaf. She just had to stick it out.
Fresh cat scent pulled Heathernose out of her thoughts and she recognized the scent of her clan mate, Tigersnap. The last thing she wanted was to interrupt another cat’s walk or hunt, so Heathernose turned quietly to go.

Smolderpaw frowned as he heard the hiss in her voice and searched through recent events in his memory to find what had annoyed Aspenbreeze. He quickly realized that he had neglected to answer her first question and, realizing that that had annoyed her, made a mental note to carefully answer everything she asked of him from there on out. Sitting up taller in an attempt to make up for his omission through professionalism, Smolderpaw considered the question for a moment before responding, ”I am interested in the history of the clans, as I only know the basics, but I think a more useful lesson right now might be to learn the borders. I’ve been told that it is a rule that no cat crosses into other clans’ territories without reason, and I would hate to make that mistake.” He hoped Aspenbreeze wouldn’t dislike that he’d offered two possibilities, but Smolderpaw had so much he wanted to learn.

"I'll take that risk, I'll show them wrong....also fair warning ...I have a tendency to forget a whole lot...like...a lot ..lot ...But I'm trying to work on it..I did my best to remember why I left and am here now...." he meowed . He tilted his head at the name..no trees? Bummer...But that doesn't matter as much he gave a hum at the name "Skypaw.....instead of oakpaw...." he meowed to himself . Rolling the name over his tongue . " I like it" he smiled . Besides he was a snowshoe cat...his pelt fit the name either way! A new life..New friends ..New possibilities . Although the thought of border patrol and him running into his old mentor in the shadowclan border worried him...what if they send a search patrol for him? If he was declared dead ...He would be thankful . That would ensure a new start ! "thank you " he added.

Tigersnap paused as a new scent swept past his pinkish nose, a paw left forgotten in midstep. His interest was instantly piqued when he realized it was a Clan mate. Ah, someone to talk to! He swiveled his head until he caught sight of a pretty pelt through the tall grass. "Heya, Heathernose!" he stepped through the grass and stopped beside her, grinning in a friendly manner. "What's your pretty self doing out here?" he asked. The phrase was so cliche; she was obviously either hunting, patrolling, or strolling. The never-ending triangle of things to do "out here". But he wasn't about to forget politeness and scare her away. He could imagine her reaction if he'd just burst through the grass and started chattering away! As he awaited her reply, his beauty-inclined eye swept over the she-cat, admiringly. Good things did happen away from camp!

A voice behind her told Heathernose she’d been spotted, but Tigersnap didn’t seem to mind the interruption. The she-cat turned back around to face him and smiled, “hi, Tigersnap!” The tortie didn’t know the tom exceptionally well, but she was never against getting to know other cats- especially not clan mates. Heathernose purred out a laugh at the classic flirt, but answered with a friendly tone, “just going for a walk to clear my head. What brought you out here?” The molly figured it must have been the same thing as she since Tigersnap had no prey with him, but it didn’t hurt to ask.

Catching himself in glee, Coldsong cleared his throat and stood, stepping back a little to give some space between him and Oddear. "Er...no offense, but I'm not very comfortable with cats touching me." He looked out on the ocean as he thought. "But uh...thanks." The smile was there again. Coldsong was getting more comfortable with Oddear, even if he still didn't care for how touchy-feely this tom was.

Realizing the conversation might end here, he couldn't help but feel... disappointed. "Soooo what are you like? I haven't noticed you much around camp."

He was a little disappointed at the other pulling away but it was completely understandable, not everyone liked to be touched for one reason or another; Who was he to disrespect that?

Oddear stretched out across the ground, the winds that rolled in from the coast relaxing his body, even if it made his ears flap a little as they caught the gust. "What am I like?" He hummed, the question itself a puzzling one. What was he like? The only word that seemed to spring to mind is annoying. "I'm a messenger of the Moon, I'm her admirer. What I am isn't really... important to the Moons greater plans of life." Well, that was a long way to say weird.

But duty calls and he must answer. Getting up the tom slowly padded over to the warrior. "Yes Coldsong?" Neutral and nonchalant. He grew some respect for the younger tom when he stood up for his clan when Icestar dared to try and take some of our warriors.

Coldsong couldn't help but cringe at the flat, boringly dull greeting the deputy just gave him. Great Stars, did this tom show any emotion? Sprucing him up might take longer than he'd be comfortable with...

"Er...I was just wondering if you'd like to go hunting with me." Coldsong replied, narrowing his ears at Brindlejaw. "The day is still young, I'm sure we could catch a field mouse or two. Maybe even a rabbit, if we're lucky?"

Puddlekit yawned and stretched. He blinked his eyes to adjust to the morning light. Sunlight peeked through the gaps in the nursery and warmed his russet fur. The russet tom stood up and gazed around the nursery. He wanted to play, so he walked over to the other side of the nursery where Snailkit and Snowkit were sleeping. He prodded them with his paw. "Wake up sleepyheads!"
