Gorseflower nodded slightly. "Yeah, but that feeling doesn't leave does it? How could it? Watching your babies grow up. I'm proud of them, and I'm scared for them." She purred softly at the thought of Peachpaw Horizonpaw and Leafpaw. "Oh now you sound like my mother." She giggled softly. "But I believe I am capable of grooming it myself mother." She teased with a laugh.

[ Doctor and I conversed on me joining, is that ok? ]

Eveningspeckle approached the two felines, "Look at you fine ladies, two peas in a pod" mused the older tom. His tail jerking side to side and finally coming to a stop to curl gently around his hind leg. "I don't think I've met you before?" eveningspeckle addressed gorseflower, angling his ears in her direction. "And if we have I've seem to have forgot your name, my memories fading" he joked, taking the chance to sit down as he spoke. He had occasionally seen her around the clan and such but never took much interest in ever addressing her or introducing himself. Yet earlyclaw seemed to be quite close, Or that was a misperception. Wether or not he would still introduce himself, whoever earlyclaw cared about was who he cared about. Earlyclaws exposure to the social circles of the clan sometimes worried him. He was certainly an introvert no doubt about it, on the other side of the spectrum the she cat differed so much from himself he found it hard to keep up.

Crestfeather returned her mate's purr and smiled, "We'll take care of it together." The molly snuggled closer to her mate and sighed happily, starting to drift off once more. A quiet purr vibrated in her chest as she lay happily entangled with Soaringcrane on the forest floor.

[ye that's fine. We can do the order of Royal Nighty then @Doctor Andreas Marino ]

Gorseflower was pulled into the grasp of Earlyclaw. She wiggled playfully as the tongue rasped through her short creamy pelt. She let out a laugh. "I'm clean now! I'm clean!" She laughed, as she let her body go limo and fell to the ground and out of Earlyclaw's grasp. She looked up at her friend, a smile on her face as the queen looked above her. The sound of another cat caused her to look over and see who it was. Not knowing the tom very well, Gorseflower picked herself up off the ground and sat beside the older feline. She had become quite embarrassed with herself for looking like a kit infring of some tom cat she didn't know, but it was too late to fix that. She flashed a kind smile to the tom and replied. "No, I don't think we have met. Or only glances. But the name is Gorseflower." She purred in her melancholy voice. "And you are?" She returned the introduction to the handsome looking tom.

"Eveningspeckle, this is Gorseflower. Gorseflower, this is Eveningspeckle." Earlyclaw introduced the two, her tail flicking with amusement as her turquoise eyes focused on them, one at a time. A soft breeze blew through the camp, prompting Earlyclaw to fluff up her fur a little and let out a purr of satisfaction as the cool air drifted across her back. She blinked, flicking her ears curiously as she wondered if she should bring her kits out of the nursery to meet Gorseflower. Lost in thought, Earlyclaw was doomed to miss Eveningspeckle and Gorseflower's interaction.

I may delete some of the characters I never use, or get them adopted, and make new ones.))

Infernosky remained silent when Cloverpaw shot a few words at Obsidiansky. Then Cloverpaw muttered under her breath. The fiery pelted fae lifted her head slightly with a frown, quietly displeased at this young cat's attitude. Well, that was what you'd expect from aprpentices, she supposed. Very expressive, often over-exaggerating things. She dismissed it.

The things that Cloverpaw had said, though, affected Infernosky more strongly. Legend? Popular? Phah. From Infernosky's perspective, she might have been many of the old Windclan cat's least favorite deputy. She appreciated the kind legacy that Dapplestar must have passed down in her favor. It was....kind of her, to keep her memory alive and, well, legendary. Perhaps more legendary than she actually was.

Her attention shifted to Obsidiansky when he made his deceptively 'sincere' remarks. She could tell by the look in his eyes and the tone in his voice that he was pretty amused by Cloverpaw's statements about her. Infernosky rarely found things funny, especially when she could potentially be made fun of, so she reacted to Obsidiansky's words with a frown and furrowed brow, one that vaguely communicated her thoughts on the matter, which specifically were, 'You think it's funny? I'll show you funny, just let me whack you over the head, then we'll see who's laughing.'

However, Jitterpaw let out a stifled snort and snicker when she heard Obsidiansky.After shooting him such a glare, she turned to Cloverpaw with a somewhat less rude expression,

"I really don't think..." She was beginning to say, when Cloverpaw began to finish her explanation. The information surprised her. Dapplestar's granddaughter? Incredible. Now it made more sense, the subtle features the young fae had that reminded her of Dapplestar's features. However, the similar pelt color was still a mystery to her. She recalled Dapplestar's mate: Rowanhawk. He was a tabby, if she remembered correctly, but his pelt was more of a dark brown, wasn't it? So why did this fae have red fur in her? Dapplestar's relatives? Rowanhawks, perhaps? There was something about it that just...it looked TOO much like Infernosky, just to be a coincidence.

The next thing Cloverpaw said was even more striking to the former deputy. Namesake?

"Dapplestar...Dapplestar named one of her kits after me?"

To this, she was bewildered. She looked down, almost as if the news made her feel self-consious. There was a slight tug on her throat---was that...emotion? She was getting emotional over this? Infernosky couldn't believe it. She did her best to swallow the lump in her throat, ignoring the panic she felt that if someone caught her close to tears, she would feel embarrassed. She straightened up to best keep her composure, but the last thing Cloverpaw said, paired with the admiration in her eyes and the deeply respectful dip of her head, Infernosky felt a bit of moisture dampening her vision. There were no true tears, but her eyes were a little glazed when she said, "It's an honor to meet the grandchild of my best friend."

Infernosky took a deep breath to calm herself. Starclan above she was embarrassed. Why was she like this? Maybe she's getting soft in her old age...ahem, somewhat older age.

"What was your mothers name? Her full name, I mean." Obviously she knew her prefix would be Infernosky, but she would like to know the suffix part of her warrior name that would set them individually apart.

--

After Jitterpaw had witnessed the reunion of Infernosky and her best friend's relatives, she couldn't help but feel for Infernosky; Jitterpaw knew her older friend very well, despite Infernosky's reluctancy to be open. Spending so much consistent time with Infernosky on their travels---understanding her came with the territory. She knew Infernosky had been constantly in an inward battle the whole time she had been apart form Windclan; she could see it in her eyes. And the day they finally made it here...she changed. The air around her was less...distant. And now, finally finding some cat remotely connected to her past...all of those stuffed down emotions were dying to come out. With this in mind, the little fae offered an affectionate purr and rubbed her muzzle against Infernosky's shoulder, then got up and moved toward Obsidiansky and Russlfur, to let the other apprentice and 'legend' catch up on lost history.

Sitting down next to Obsidiansky and facing Russelfur, the three sat in a conversational triangle. She first glanced at Obsidiansky with amusement in her eyes, to refer back to his previous sarcasm about Infernosky being a legend. She couldn't help but be amused. Infernosky had the makes of a legendary cat, for sure, but, being so close to her just made it...cute? Like a sister teasing her other sisters accomplishments. Was that a thing? She thought so. Anyway, she broke into whatever small conversation the male duo was having by intruding with,

"I'm kinda bored, and antsy. We should go for a training session, like Infernosky said we would. Talking is soooOOOooo boring sometimes. Or maybe we could hunt? Infernosky would probably let you show us some good hunting techniques, Obsidiansky." She blabbered from comment to comment, mostly directing her thoughts to the coal black tom. She liked the tom's light-hearted demeanor.

--

Russelfur had been watching the interaction between Infernosky and Cloverpaw fondly, when Obsidiansky kindly answered his greeting and inquired how he's been since yesterday.

"Quite well, thank you. I feel embarrassed for sleeping in so late on my first day 'on the job', if you know what I mean. I hope nobody other than you three have noticed," He was sincere in his words as he referred to Infernosky, Obsidiansky and Jitterpaw as the 'three'.
"Have I missed anything important?"
