Re: “A Rabbit on the Hunt! So Scary!” [P]
Loudwhisker woke with a start. The sun was shining, beaming down on her short fur. She purred, she loved the feeling of warmth on her back. That was all interrupted when an apprentice bounded up to her. She was taken aback, not in a bad way, as she examined her clanmate for a moment.
"Take... take you out?" She stammered out, confused, a bit flustered even. Then it all clicked. This was Rabbitpaw. She smiled nodding her head as she came closer to the apprentice. This could be an opportunity for her to get to know her clanmate better. Also, of course, to possibly get experience with mentoring. This wasn't exactly the same, but it would teach her well enough. "Sure, I don't see why not." She took a moment to think about what she could teach the apprentice. She was okay at some things, but she certainly excelled at tracking down prey. That could be a valuable lesson. At least she thought so. She wasn't much of a thinker, more of a "do it now, think later" kind of cat. "Would tracking be okay?" ************************************************** ************* @Dolomedes |

Loudwhisker thought for a moment, then grinned. Her voice came out in a wispy, exaggerated way.
"Anything, if you put your mind to it." After she elaborated. "Well not everything, but you can smell the ground beneath you, squirrels in the trees." She, oddly, closed her eyes and flicked her tail. She opened her mouth and was simply, well, focused. She could taste, smell, and almost feel the green grass near the moor. She could visualize the bright green hues of the blades, their spiky tops, and she could feel how itchy they would make her paws. "Wanna try? It's quite fun, like having a day dream." She motioned to the apprentice to do to the same as she had. ************************************************** ************* @Dolomedes |

LOUDWHISKER Trans Female | Moons: 18 | Kin: ? Loudwhisker sighed. Explaining things wasn't her best skill. Nor was she much of a speaker, at that. She rather sit back, examine, and leap in when she needed to. "Um... sorry... I'm bad at explaining..." Her ears pinned against her head. Huh. She was starting to feel guilty. What for? Though she'd accepted to train this apprentice, she'd do it her way. Which is the only way Loudwhisker knew how to do it. She was flexible though. Loud tried her best to explain again. "You said it's too busy?" She got reassurance from the apprentice. She thought about it for a moment. How did she get better at tracking? Loud thought back to when she was an apprentice. Her mentor had suggested her to focus on one thing. Like taking tiny steps while hunting. Your one step is you trying to focus, while the others are coming to focus on all of the others. "Well, think of it like a puzzle. When you figure out one part, you go on to the next. Instead of trying to get the whole picture, try getting one small part at a time. Like if you're trying to smell the grass out by the moor... try to imagine each blade of grass at a time. It might seem grueling-trust me, it wasn't too long ago I was an apprentice as well-but taking it slow is the best way to go." Loudwhisker gave a small, hesitant smile to Rabbitpaw. She felt that she wouldn't be able to match Rabbit's energy. "I know daydreaming isn't the best example. More like... thinking? You think one thought at a time, then you begin a conversation in your mind." She realized how odd that sounded. She chuckled nervously, unsure of how to talk to this apprentice. ************************************************** ************* @Dolomedes - Rabbitpaw |

LOUDWHISKER Trans Female | Moons: 18 | Kin: ? Loudwhisker nodded her head, feeling her confidence return. "For herbs, it's easier to have experience with their different smells and tastes. Otherwise, you could confuse them." Loudwhisker herself didn't have much experience with herbs. She always liked the possibilities, but was too invested with warrior duties to explore them. "You'll have to acquaint yourself with herbs, I don't have much experience in that area. But it works similarly to tracking prey." She got into a hunting crouch "Can you smell any prey nearby?" She asked waiting for a reply. ************************************************** ************* @Dolomedes |

Loudwhisker was amazed by the apprentice's form. Everything was right ... except the execution. Which she was struggling to admit to the friendly lad. Huh. "Well... uhm..." She mumbled and then drew in a breath. What was the sense in stammering? Suck it up, Loudwhisker! Loudwhisker got low into a hunting crouch. She wasn't much good with words, but actions, that was more in her skill level. But actions could only express so much. She cleared her throat. "You said you smelt a mole? Very good! That's the first step. Losing it is very easy if you take too huge of a leap. Think of what I said before. Take in all of the scents slowly. Then once you get to your target, take time to really recognize your smell. Like how you would recognize WindClan scent ... it's familiar." She continued her lengthy spiel. "Once you get that scent, you can't let go of it. The wind will carry it elsewhere ... you'll just have to get used to the scent smelling faint instead of fresh. With your mole, I say the circumstances were unlucky, but not impossible. It's all about... focus." ************************************************** ************* @Dolomedes - Rabbitpaw |
