Redwater padded next to Seabreeze, her reddish-brown fur ruffling in the soft ocean breeze. The she-cat absolutely lived Lionsbeach. The sand, the water… everything about it made her feel free and calm. Though she was surprised that Seabreeze had asked for her to come with himin the patrol, she was happy that she had been asked, after all she was a bit young, and Seabreeze had never asked her to hunt with him before, and she hadn’t really had any interactions with him before.

Redwater loved hunting, the task was her favorite of all her Clan duties. She took in a huge breath of the salt filled air and sighed with happiness. She glanced at the cat beside her than looked out at the sand.

Listening to him talk, a little awkwardly, she let out a small purr. ”Very well. I haven’t been here in about a moon, and I do like hunting here very much.” she stretched, the sand swallowing her paws. ”Lets head down that way then, you lead. she began glancing around.

@Dolomedes - Seabreeze

Seabreeze
He/him | Riverclan Lionheart | Moons: 17 | Purrks: Go with the Flow | The Collector | Ultimate Predator |
“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”

A whole moon? Wow, and Seabreeze thought that he hadn't been to Lionsbeach in a while. Most recently he had a spar here with Mistyshard. That was fun, maybe she would be up to another someday, though maybe not with her new rank and all. The lionheart shook his head a bit to clear it before giving the warrior a small nod and a nervous smile, "Sure thing!" Then Seabreeze was turning and walking down the shoreline without another word, expecting the molly to follow without needing any further prompting. Time to look for any fish or seagulls, though tend to be around a bit. Also shellfish, but Seabreeze tried to avoid those, they were more trouble then they are worth in his opinion. [ D20: 13 | Pass ] Seabreeze's blue eyes shifted from the scenery to around the area and sure enough, stuck near the water, laying beside a rock was a fish that seemed to be fresh and relatively unpecked at.

Though a gull's cry and subsequential fluttering of wings signalled that the lionheart wasn't the only scavenger to take notice of the fish. A bird flew down, likely not seeing Seabreeze from the rock next to him that covered some of his form, also his fur probably helped with blending in some. Only does he have that advantage at the beach. The lionheart looked to Redwater and motioned towards the gull and then crouched down, hoping that the warrior got the message enough to stay quiet while he moved forward swiftly to catch the bird before it touched that fish. [ D20: 10 | Barely passed ] Crawling forward on his tummy, Seabreeze slowly made his way into pouncing range, pawstep after pawstep. One, two, three! The lionheart pounced forward as he came into range, shifting his weight from heavily laying across all four of his paws into his back haunches to powerfully leap at the bird. The gull squawked and flutter its wings as it made for the skies. Seabreeze had to land to the side of it and jump up again. The lionheart swiped a paw through the air, just managing to catch the seagull on its wing before it left hitting range. The bird fell to the floor and Seabreeze was able to secure the kill easily.

His attention moved to the fish next, it appeared to be okay. The lionheart stared carefully, no marks of being pecked or chewed up by other creatures. And it smelled and looked fresh. Seabreeze was always extra careful when checking scavenged fish on the beach, or really everywhere, never know when you might accidentally be bringing in crow food and getting folks sick. Not exactly what they need right now. The lionheart took a moment to move the seagull and fish away from the water line so they wouldn't be carried out when he was looking. Seabreeze dug his paws into the sandy earth before plopping the fish and bird into the hole and covering it back up snugly so nothing too curious came by. His blue eyes moved from the filled in sand hole after patting it lightly with one of his paws over to Redwater. The tom padded over, back to the warrior's side to continue the hunting.

Should he start any conversation? While normally he tried to be pretty quiet when hunting, for obvious reasons, the sounds of the incoming waves had lead the prey here to get sloppy about what they hear and it also covers up the voices of hushed felines pretty well. "A whole moon, huh? Why is that, if you don't mind me asking?" Maybe it was just Seabreeze's paranoia that had him searching through all parts of the territory regularly, or maybe it was because he found himself hunting and patrolling more often lately but Seabreeze tends to see each part of the territory at least once every couple days. He got around. The lionheart could see how one wouldn't see a certain place as frequently as he does but one whole moon?? He didn't even go that long between seeing all of his territory back when he was a warrior. Though who knows, Seabreeze doesn't know anything about Redwater really, so the tom waited for a response.
