RiverClan Clearing

"I'm not sure if you'd know him, actually. I don't know what he's up to now-a-days. He could've left the clan for all I know." He hadn't spoken to his father in many, many moons, especially since becoming deputy. He was a grown cat, and had always done just fine without paternal guidance.

"Aaaand we're here!" He chided, sounding reassuring to the injured tom as they reached the barrier of reeds that marked the entrance to the RiverClan camp. He carefully helped the WindClanner through, making sure his injured leg didn't get snagged on anything as they entered the camp. He looked around, trying to spot Shiverpetal. Maybe he was in his den. "The medicine den is just over here," He told Milkmallow sweetly.

Humming, Milkmallow nodded in understanding and wished he could've been of greater assistance, but the vague information suggested it was out of reach. "Smart tom." Ah.. that was a bit presumptuous of his current gender identity, but departing would be the wise choice during their current struggles. No matter the logic that he knowingly maneuvered to justify himself, it still didn't sit right after moons of being told loyalty was the answer.

Milkmallow took in his surroundings with a reverent awe; he'd never been in the camp of another Clan, and although it was crowded compared to the moors, there was a security in reedy barriers. And the scents were overwhelming, definitely more than WindClan's. As Eagleflight helped him in, all he could think to murmur were little phrases of appreciation and apologies for putting him out. Overwhelming gratitude was a foreign feeling when he couldn't remember this kindness in his home Clan where nobody had any to spare. Craning his neck to look into the den, he commented, "It appears your medicine cat is busy with patients." He wasn't about to disturb them either--RiverClan naturally should be served before him. Thoughtful, he determined, "I will try to find some spare cobwebs around to use until it's more convenient for him to see me. Thank you for your... ah, well, everything."

"Of course," Eagleflight purred lightly in response to the pale warrior's thank you. "Again, it's the least we can do. You're free to find somewhere comfortable to rest your leg until you can be seen. I'll speak with Lionstar and let him know the situation, so there's nothing to worry about." He nodded his farewell before padding away towards the leader's den. He had wanted to offer the tom some fresh-kill, but the pile was looking rather slim on this day, and he thought Lionstar might want to be updated before his deputy went around giving their food to outsiders.

Pacing around the clearing for the moment, Frostfall seemed deep in thought, his eyes fixated on his paws as they took a step forward... stopped... took another step. His tail lashed. How would he do this? Blazepaw... Skunkpaw... their training. A heavy sigh escaped through his nostrils as he seemed to make up his mind, giving a thorough look around camp. Once he had managed to find each apprentice and pull them to the side, Frostfall gave each apprentice a long, stern look. He didn't really care what they had been up to, training was the most important thing, considering both his mentees were old enough to be warriors... Blazepaw hadn't had a solid training session in moons and after his disappearing act a few weeks ago, Frostfall wasn't going to let it happen again. Skunkpaw was.. well... Skunkpaw, he knew what to expect after their patrol. Looking between the two of them, Frostfall could already feel the irritation itching underneath his pelt, but he did his best to ignore it for now.

"Blazepaw, Skunkpaw. We're going out for training, now. I suggest you wrap up whatever you are doing because if not you'll be left behind and I won't save you from punishment." Flicking his tail, he made his way to the entrance of camp waiting only a minute longer before he disappeared through the brush - heading for the training island.

Gingerblossom wasn't sure how she'd ended up like this. But, now that Blazingcomet was missing, she didn't know what to do. She hadn't talked to many other cats in the clan besides him, and had oddly isolated herself from everyone else. But that wasn't what she did. Gingerblossom was a cat who went out of her way to talk to others, to make new friends and spend time talking and conversing with just about anyone.
But, even though she was confused and a little disheartened, Gingerblossom's spirit hadn't dulled. So, she got to her paws from where she'd been laying at the edge of the clearing (freezing, quite frankly) and walked up to the first cat she saw in the clearing, whom was facing away from her as she approached. "Hi there!"

What was on the agenda? Talk to Lionstar... and that was eat. Just as he was about to make his way towards the leader's den, Buckfrost's yowl startled him from his thoughts. Turning tail, he greeted the warrior with a dip of his head, listening as he reported his findings -

"A fox?" He meowed in disbelief, his pelt bristling with slight worry. "What happened with it? Did your patrol make it back alright or do we need to send out another one to pick up any clanmates?" Well... if there was still a fox out there and the patrol hadn't brought back any injured felines it would be fox-chow by now. No doubt.

"Well, like I said, it's with us." His tail flicked to where it was positioned by the fresh-kill pile. "We have some injuries but they were all able to make it back to camp fine. They're seeking aid with Shiverpetal as we speak. Graypaw was startled by the fox and ran off, we almost lost him to a hawk but I managed to kill it before it got too high. Eagleflight and some WindClan cat also showed up to fight the fox off. I'm not sure where they went, they were gone by the time I collected Graypaw."

Nighttuft turned around. "Oh, hello." The pregnant queen meowed. She sat down. "So... Whatcha wanna talk about?" She licked her white chest. She had been quite silent after she moved to the nursery, so she was happy that Gingerblossom approached her. She continued grooming herself as she waited for a answer. The black she curled her tail around herself to stay warm.

"yup lets go" she said as they padded out not long and she noticed a tail in a bush, she went in the crouch and pounced pulling out a kinda big mouse, burying it up they continued forwards

"What did you find?" Willowtail said and looked over. She saw her burring it went over to it.

A yawn escaped Fawnsqueak as RiverClan camp was finally within sight, then he was trotting through the familiar entrance of interwoven reeds and welcomed by the scents iconic of home. It was refreshing after... well, who knew how long he'd been gone, stuck at the oceanside in his grief. At least he could manage that here, with less isolation involved. There was that nagging concern over literally being deputy--he'd broach that with Lionstar later--and having an apprentice, but he was too emotionally exhausted to bother. Calm washed over him as he paused to survey the clearing, glad to be back--

Fawnsqueak squinted. He blinked. He was certain his eyes were mistaken, they had to be. A manifestation of being overtired and worn down, because that couldn't be Truthpaw... It felt like a cruel joke after finding Willowpaw's lifeless body. A more daring version of himself might've approached, but he was hesitant in scaring whoever this was, since it couldn't actually be her.

"a fat mouse, it will make a great meal for someone who picks it" she said happy with her catch, "you wanna head down to the stream to catch some fish" she asked

Cougarpaw looked over as a familiar scent hit her nose, and the she-cat's eyes lit up. She was definitely taller and scrawnier than when she'd last seen Fawnsqueak, so the look of disbelief in his eyes was understandable. Joy swelled within her. Finally, a cat she was familiar with! Cougarpaw bounded over to him. "Fawnp-er...Fawnsqueak! It's me! Truthpaw!" She slid to a halt in front of him. "Well, Cougarpaw now," she added with a casual flick of her bushy tail. "Lionstar wasn't a fan of the name so he changed it. But that's neither here nor there. It's so good to see you again!"
