Make sure to congratulate Versailles on their promotion from c-mod in training to fully fledged chat moderator! They've worked very hard, and we can't wait to see where they go from here!
Bumblestar saw only one of the new arrivals join the gathered cats below, and her tail twitched irritably. What was the point of coming to ask to join and accepting the offer if they weren't even going to show up? The kit could be excused, but the grown-ass cat she'd put a bit of faith in was aggravating.
"Right, first things first. Couple of new faces with us today." She glanced at Asterpaw specifically, seeing as he was the only one present. "Aster there is joining us as Asterpaw [ @FrostyGalaxy ]. I'll be taking over his training.
"We also have Bat, coming to us as Batkit [ @FruitBat ]. Queens, I need you to keep an eye on him as you would any other kit. I don't see him here right now, so just keep an eye out, please. Not in the mood to track down missing kits.
"Lastly..." She leaned down to squint. Ugh, still not there. "HAWK!" [ @Sklee ] she barked, gaze sweeping over the rest of the camp. "If you're not over here in the next ten seconds, you'll no longer have a place in ThunderClan!"
How hard was it to be on time?
[ if hawk doesn't show up by my next post at 9/12, they will be considered absent and will be removed from thunderclan's allegiances ]
Softsky rushed to the Thunderwillow, feeling a little embaressed for being late but it was better than the last few. . .where she didn't show up. So far it just seemed like new cats, which was important to know, but she didn't miss anything TOO major, which was a relief.

Well, it didn’t seem that Bumblestar had much to state as of yet, rather getting the usual stuff out of the way before moving onto anything new. Springpaw almost felt curious for what exactly the leader may state for what news she had to bare to the clan. Could she potentially mention the foxes that Springpaw had witnessed in her vision from StarClan? Was it even considered a vision at this point in time? A silent shiver escaped her lips, almost in rhythm with the quick breeze that suppressed itself through her thick coat. Why did cold weather even have to exist? It was something that she always asked, but luckily she hadn’t necessarily made it too obvious that it was something that she had been intrigued by. But, thankfully, she didn’t pay much attention towards it as she silently awaited for what her leader had to say next.

Dovefluff was nearly startled when she heard a voice beside her, but any jumpiness was stamped out by her eyes meeting the warm gaze of Lioncrest, lapis hues brightening before she realized how painfully, embarrassingly obvious she was being. Ducking her head until she had her face under control, Dove smiled at the golden warrior. "I don't mind at all." She purred out, nodding in greeting.
Smoothing her chest fur with a slightly quivering paw self-consciously, Dovefluff felt her paw graze raw scar tissue and she was able to keep any sign of unease with the memories attached from crossing her face, and she instead continued to her paw to place on the ground. "Thank you... they're both very talented, I'm lucky to be surrounded by such good cats." Her wording made it clear that she was also referring to Lioncrest himself and Alderstep, who both played such important roles in her... not-dying.
Tipping her head to the side as Bumblestar waited for cats to gather, she turned back to look at him, sapphire hues trying to meet emerald orbs. "How've you been doing? I... I understand it's a pretty rocky time." With wars and deaths and territory stealing and Cracklepaws, she wanted to make sure he was doing alright. Nervousness grabbed her by the shoulders. Did she sound too awkward? Too nervous?
~ Lioncrest ~
A pleased rumble echoed out from Lioncrest's chest, and he shuffled a whisker-length closer to the silver she-cat beside him as her seemingly-enthusiastic response escaped her jaws. He sat up a little straighter as her compliment quickly followed. He WAS quite a wonderful cat to have in one's life, wasn't he? Stars only know what Thunderclan would do without him there.
"I am faring well enough; all things considered," he stated, amber eyes flicking down to meet her searching sapphire gaze with a self-assured and steady one of his own. "I am confident Thunderclan will weather this storm with strength and courage, just as we have done in the past. Do not fret over my safety; I am well equipped to handle whatever challenges the forest may throw my way."
His attention was pulled away briefly as Bumblestar announced some new arrivals, however his eyes narrowed slightly as she called out for this "Hawk", who apparently held little regard for social etiquette and careened into the clearing, late, like a bat escaping the Dark Forest. Rolling his eyes slightly, he elected to return his focus to the much more put together feline next to him. Casually flicking his tail over to rest against her flank, Lioncrest called out the apprentice's name as a respectful acknowledgement of his leader's choice to accept the young cat before awaiting her next announcement.

Sharpclaw continued to lay on his side, listening as Bumblestar welcomed the new members of their clan. He drew his eyes to the front, snorting as he only noticed one of the new members actually present. The other two showed up after being called for, of course, but they'd already made a poor impression on the striped tom.
ThunderClan could always do with some more warriors, but it would be nice if the new recruits actually bothered to prove themselves worthy of it, or at the very least show up on time. It was beginning to look like just anyone could waltz in and join their clan.

Bumblestar locked eyes with Hawk, tail twitching irritably, as the warrior showed up. "Finally," she growled. "Took you long enough, was starting to think I was gonna have to kick you out."
Clearing her throat, she glanced back at her Clan. "Usually when I let outsiders join our ranks, I make 'em start from the bottom and work their way up, but Hawk [ @Sklee ] proved to already possess a decent skill set. He'll be joining us as Webdusk, full name 'n warrior rank. Wildtwist [ @Bean_The_Cat ], I'm puttin' you in charge of making sure he knows how to climb. Come talk to me once you've gone over that, wanna make sure it's done."
There wasn't really a good segue into what she wanted to talk about next, so she'd deal with the awkward switch.
"Movin' on. As I've said in past meetings, I'm lookin' for new Hornets. But Asterdance has recently gone missing, so that means another slot's just emptied up." A mixture of concern and irritation made her upper lip twitch. It wasn't like Asterdance to just vanish like this and she hoped they were alright.
"That being said - I've been keepin' an eye on current Hornets and promising candidates. After Asterdance disappeared, that left Gentledoe 'n Spiderthroat to keep it going. You can add Sharpclaw to that list now." She tossed the younger tom a glance. "He's been nothing but promising. And in addition to that, Spiderthroat, you're the new Head Hornet. Keep Gentledoe 'n Sharpclaw in check, and make sure any future Hornets stay in line."
Was she springing this on him pretty suddenly? Sure. Did she care? Not really.
