"i dont think i can really give you a history lesson..you know, we're not that different. when i came to riverclan i was really sick, i didnt really leave the medicine den for a while and had only barely moved into the nursery when i got apprenticed. so i did some of my training and got to know some cats but then i fell ill again n thats pretty much how i spent a few moons, just constantly pawsteps between illness and trying to function. that was from around..hm the end of leaf fall until the end of leafbare, i just started really training again like three or four moons ago." that was a lot, more than she had ever told any other cat, it had never come up in conversation and they couldve seen it happen after all so it never really came to mind to speak about her earliest moons in riverclan..but now she had told a kit that had probably not even been born at the time minkpaw fell ill originally.
"i was uh an outsider i suppose, so i guess im not really that far from my origin now" she let out a dry chuckle, it wasnt funny.
"but i'll definitely try my best to teach you everything i can. n i might not be a warrior yet but i have finished most of my training" something else she desperately ached to teach marigoldkit was basic first aid and all the stuff she shouldnt put in her mouth, now that her herb event wasnt happening anymore she had no reason to postpone that lesson anyway.

(edit: do not ask me how i accidentally managed to quote you twice but it happened i guess. edit2: okay i fixed it lmao)

Marigoldkit knitted her eyebrows together. Minkpaw? All stringy and sick and useless? She couldn't picture it in her head, not at all. Minkpaw's strides or words had always been edged with a weight of confidence to Marigoldkit, like Minkpaw knew what she was doing and where she was going... How? How could she have been just as sick as her at one point?

She did know that Minkpaw had been an outsider before, she mentioned that in the nursery one evening. That's when she found out about the Thunderclan raid and all that jazz. Despite the dark undertones of the memory she couldn't help but smile at the thought. It was nostalgic, what would you expect?

"Haha! I bet I'll be the swiftest cat this clan'll ever see! I wouldn't mind learning a thing or two more. Thanks for telling me more about yourself though, it's weirdly comforting to know that I'm not alone in my experiences." Marigoldkit nodded slowly to herself. "I feel sorry for you... I'm glad you got better."

Marigoldkit would one day be just as capable as Minkpaw maybe even just as driven. Marigoldkit couldn't stand sitting still, she wanted to get up and go go go! But, she couldn't. Not yet. Not yet. One day though, one day she'd be running through fields and dodging streams and rivers like they're lakes of fire. Even though she'd have to learn to swim eventually, she wasn't about to dive headfirst into stuff like that. Water scared her silly and she wasn't about to tempt death twice.
