➣ The slender tortie warrior’s ears twitched towards their patrolmate, sensing the coldness in tomcat’s words. However, they did nothing more to respond to Smallheart’s comment and simply kept on waiting for Foxpaw to show up. Once again, it seemed like the she-cat was late to a patrol, and Brightpath was rather tired of waiting any longer. “Come on,” The thinly-framed calico meowed to the other warrior, rising to a standing position, “We’ll do the patrol without Foxpaw. If she wants to skip out on her responsibilities, then she can deal with Copperfire.” There was a certain sternness to Brightpath’s tone, but they said more as they began to walk towards the ThunderClan camp entrance, their tail swishing back and forth impatiently with every step.

Foxpaw trotted up to the group, slightly out of breath. "Let's go." What was this patrol again? Hunting, border patrol? Was it something else? Nah, there were no other options. At least this time they hadn't left without her. She was really done with patrols. Constantly having to walk around and do whatever the heck she had to do. She wasn't lazy, or not too badly, but having to constantly repeat behavior was awfully repetitive. OF course, considering this, she still didn't mean to be late all the time. She looked at Brightpath and gave them an apologetic smile. Something she was getting unfortunately good at.

RainySpirit
RainySpirit was resting in her nest, both Moonkit and Sandkit safely tucked in next to her, she hadn’t seen her mate since she rushed into camp with those four kits.. I hope she’s doing okay.. LeafNight often volunteered for things over her head, and RainySpirit really hoped that it wasn’t the same in this case. The tortie couldn’t help but wonder what had happened to the kits’ mother, she originally assumed that the mother just abandoned the kits but LeafNight and the kits were all drenched in blood, so that made her doubtful of her original assumption. RainySpirit pushed her thoughts away, LeafNight was perfectly fine and those four kits were being cared for by SunDust and Rosepaw.

She sighed, and leaned down towards her two kits, licking each on the head to gently wake them up. “Come on little ones, feeding time.” she meowed softly before shuffling so that they could access the milk. She probably would need to think about starting to wean them soon- well once they become comfortable walking and talking of course. LeafNight smiled, Moonkit and Sandkit were so precious, she couldn’t understand why anycat wouldn’t like kits, I mean just look at them! So small! So defenceless! So fuzzy!

Her heart almost felt like it was melting, she knew that one day her kits would become apprentice’s and even warriors and not need her protection anymore but she would be there for them always. Even when she joined starclan. If her kits needed her she would do whatever it takes to help them, even if it were to mean fighting the entire dark forest herself. She would do it. I guess this is what a mothers fierce love for her kits is. she thought to herself and purred.

[ @Cody Riley Paco Killian , @Don't Panic - I’m so sorry! I’ve been meaning to post with Rainy but I haven’t had time too! If you wish Moonkit and Sandkit can be able to speak and walk a bit because of how long they’ve been kit’S for, so sorry yet again! (Also Rainy will be fostering a couple kits later too, but that shouldn’t really affect you two much) ]

moonkit sleeped peacefully, as the young kit felt nudged she opened her green eyes, she looked up at her mother smiling" yayfeeding time!" moonkit exclaimed then rushing over to her mother her smile spreaded across, as moonkit looked at her sibling she waited and waited but then got impatient and walked in circles then tumbling down onto her back she giggled

Thrushfur went taken aback from Quailfurs sudden havoc as she ran out of the nursery. He turned towards her ready to chase after her. But hearing Crowkit wail about being such a bad brother. His mind went into turmoil. He peeked into the nursery trying to comfort Crowkit from afar.

" It's alright Crowkit- "

He gritted his teeth as he whipped around to pull Quailfur away from stepping out of camp due to Quietkits situation. Then only could he rest then from any sudden consequences. It seemed like Starclan was cursing at him right about now. All of this suffering in a short amount of time for what? Dustclaws dead, now with the pain of wounds, and Quietkits missing? How absurd. He sped off towards his mate.

Wildspark
◖ Male[he/him] - Goofball ◗

Well they didn't seem all that excited to see him. In his dumb mind he was expecting some kind of a party for his return. It was just a shame he was able to come back to Thunderclan when Cinderstar was leader after his revival, but then he went missing soon after. He was a horrible cat wasn't he? Well both times he hadn't mean't to be away from Thunderclan. Starclan must hate him or something. "Well I was resurrected a few moons ago and was allowed back to the clan, but you see here I was taking one of my daily strolls and possibly do some hunting. I found myself getting too close to the border when this two-leg came out of nowhere and picked me up with their filthy paws. While being held against my will I managed to escape twice, but they always brought me back.", he meowed.

Wildspark took a deep breathe. Never before had he realized how much he talked. Maybe that was why she was annoyed with him. He didn't know. He was too dumb to realize. "The third time I managed to get through this barrier to a thing that allows you to see the outside from inside and by the time they managed to grab me I was gone. Now I wish to come back home. I came straight here after I escaped.", he meowed.

Echosong huffed as she tried to find a comfortable spot in her mega nest.

[Raven~]

Larkstorm napped in a patch of sunlight near the warriors’ den, stretched out comfortably. It was her favorite place in camp, her own private spot where she could just get away from the stuffed warriors’ den and just have some time of her own.

Ashpaw (he/him)
Grey tabby with blue/grey eyes

»»————-　☀︎︎　————-««

Ashpaw had been wandering in the clearing all day and was now laying in the apprentices den, unsure about what to do. His paws pricked with restlessness and his sibling Frostshade was on patrol. He decided to leave his leafy, mossy and feathery nest once and for all. He needed to do something useful. As soon as he left, an orange pelt caught his eye in the clearing. Feeling revived, he trotted up to her friend with a large grim on his face: "Flamepaw! It's nice to see you around."

Ashpaw hadn't seen the pretty she-cat since the chaos at the Thunderwillow, and he could remember pretty well Nectarflame's reproach and Flamepaw's frustration about her training. How many things had changed since then... Cindersky has even died. I still feel sorry for her. For Nectarflame. his thoughts spiraled back to his friend: How's your training going? I hope everything's fine.

//Ashpaw referred to Flamepaw as "pretty" does he have a crush on her?

Flamepaw was rather dramatic, trying to cool herself off after the confrontation with Nectarflame. Her dreams felt like they had been shattered when Cindersky, who was now dead, refused to give her a mentor. I mean... how could it be my fault that my mentor disappeared on me? I didn't do anything wrong! she wanted to yowl the words until her throat was sore into Nectarflame's face. But that wouldn't solve anything and Flamepaw knew it. Foxheart... that's what Nectarflame is! She may not have directly killed her Clanmates, Dawnstar was the one to kill them, but she indirectly caused the death of her CLANMATES! Why is she still a ThunderClan warrior? Better yet, why is a Keeper?! Flamepaw gritted her teeth and unsheathed her claws, wanting to attack Nectarflame. But that was just as reckless as what Nectarflame had done. Sheathing her claws, Flamepaw flicked her ear toward a familiar voice. Ashpaw!

"Hiya, Ashpaw! You have no idea how glad I am to see you!" she breathed a sigh of relief, all thoughts about Nectarflame gone. It was like StarClan had guided Ashpaw's steps to her. "My training is a bit slow... but Mapleleaf is great! Well... she's better than Rushfire or Echosong ever was... hasn't abandoned me yet. I had to approach her on my own, otherwise, I think I'd still be searching for a mentor."

The mid-aged apprentice let a chuckle escape her jaws. Although she'd never directly admit it, she was glad for the distraction Ashpaw gave her. He was only a moon or two older than her, wasn't he? So he'd be becoming a warrior before her.

"You'll be a warrior soon, right? What do you think your warrior name will be?" she asked, happy to have a conversation with her denmate.
