[ they/she | shadowclan | 14moons | purrks ]
a scarred dark blueish grey cat with minimal white markings and grey eyes

rookpaw could once again count herself lucky that lostspark was one, bothering to keep up with her without complaint, and two, that she wasnt at the receiving end of another scolding. venomstrike could also count himself lucky to have caught their conversation in camp and gotten himself a spot on this top exclusive trip. to her own surprise, rookpaw didnt overly mind, he didnt seem like a cat to speak a lot or get in the way.
unlike last time, rook didnt immediately catch up to lostspark when the older feline turned to growl at shadow-something, but instead ignored the brighteye she had just come across, it wasnt leaf fall so it would be a waste to gather herbs for a cough that wasnt going around, in order to gently pick a bit of broom. new leaf seemed to have treated the plants around here rather nicely, the broom was a bright yellow already and even though she hadnt looked at the brighteye for more than a moment, it looked nice and green and about to go into bloom.
the plants sweet smell now right under her nose she trotted up to lostspark, broom was probably the last present anyone would ever think to gift or receive but this wasnt her full intention anyway. it was more so the effort of bringing something good to the clan.. silver eyes briefly hovered on shadowflame before the apprentice sat, placing the broom on the grass by her paws before turning her head to observe her surroundings from here. the new territory was interesting, yes, but she knew it was in her interest to both be careful and well behaved enough to not disappear out of her mentors view..or well, earshot. attention resting on the other warrior, she wondered what kind of cat venomstrike would turn out to be, perhaps a timid warrior always keen on making sure he could not possibly overstep like seabreeze, or one with too much confidence for their own good. judging by the scars it might just be of the second option.
she hadnt really intended on listening to the..situation..between shadowflame and lostspark but when the warrior growled back, white tipped ears twitched in interest. rook had expected a apology, maybe excuses but not for shadowflame to straight up growl at lostspark. slowly, for no particular reason, lostspark couldnt see her anyway, be it because of her blindness or simply the fact that rook was sitting at an angle that made it impossible, she turned her head to follow the interaction. they bit their tongue, strategy, hiding places and shortcuts werent their job to figure out, there would be enough time later, after dawnstar cleared them for general access.
'i dont think its amongst your duties to investigate territory not yet cleared for regular access' she wanted to add, give her opinion on the whole issue, but she didnt, instead, cool grey eyes switched attention to lostspark briefly before returning to the warrior. striped tail tapped the ground quietly, the way rookpaw held herself shouldnt give the warrior much room to guess her opinion on this beyond displeasure or annoyance and rook wasnt particularly keen on giving them more attention than necesarry anyway.
