"Yeah right, by what - goin' through RiverClan territory? Forgive me if I don't believe a word outta a rats' mouth like yours." Digging her claws in further, enough to produce blood and give some wounds for the cat to remember her by.

Stepping back she allowed the tom to get up, but blocked any potential path further into RiverClan territory. "Outskirts're that way. Get goin' before I decide to really leave some wounds." He may have been ShadowClan once, in her memory, but his pelt no longer held the scent. She would stay here until he was gone, making sure he didn't travel any furhter into RiverClan territory.

In the midst of dealing with the outsider though, a new voice flickered towards her - a familiar one - and immediately the deputy looked up. Anger flared in her chest, and it took everything in her to not launch herself across the border. "...Well, if it isn't the 'paw murderer." Honeypaw's body flashed through her, a six moon old kid, fresh out of the nursery. She still kept the loner in her sights, but oh now she would finally get to say some choice words to the cat who had torn up kids, who had ripped up Cobs' heart.

"Did you have fun, feelin' the blood of a kid run between your claws, coward?" Venom dripped from her tongue as she glared daggers at the former RiverClan cat. "Did you enjoy the taste of Honeypaw's blood as it drained from her and stained your muzzle? Did the light leaving her eyes - did her spirit joining the stars far too early - fulfill your need for revenge against RiverClan? I sure hope it did, you... you filthy piece of crow-food." A blink, and then a tilt of her head. "She was six moons, y'know. Fresh out of the nursery. But you should know that - she was only a kit when you were still in RiverClan. Probably even a kit that looked up to cats like you."

She wouldn't cross the border, no. But her claws were out, on her side. Her blue eyes blazed in fury, gray fur bristling. Oh, how badly she wanted to tear the throat from this cat and leave her body for Dawnstar to find. Avenge Honeypaw, and Wings, and Cobs.

[ @alec - i SINCERELY apologize for dusk please know that i love and adore rook very much ]

ROOKFIRE
[ he/him | shadowclan enforcer | purrks ]

once dusklion spotted him, another burst of excitement rushed through the enforcer, enjoying this obviously far more than the riverclanner. the way she addressed him was phenomenal, he couldnt have done it better.
"sure am. the one and only, in the flesh!" rookfire cackled, striped tail flicking behind as his voice took a few considerate tonal shifts to dramatise, a perfect mockery and representation on how silly he thought this whole thing was. however, rookfire kept his slightly more childish response to himself, internally monologuing for a second 'oh i got one as well, if its not the cat that allowed someone to torture a clanmate right in front of their eyes! the failure that gave up on a kit carried away by a bird!' before choosing a topic so slightly more serious it was pretty much irrelevant, but something more personal after all. it was honestly mostly for his own enjoyment but the possibility of not only riling up dusklion but also possibly making her question her brother, well he wouldnt turn it down. (though he was aware it was unlikely to change a cats twisted view on one they obeyed without question. failure of the weak minded...)
"anyway, i dont think you should be sayin' that considering your brother attempted to murder me whilst i was still very much an apprentice, but suit yourself." he shrugged, then stretched out his front legs, claws piercing soft soil before disappearing into white paws once more.
dusklion went on, seemingly pretty stuck on the fact that he killed a cat but oh well who cares, dusklion had literally killed a deputy so it was her own fault that apprentice had to die.
instead of choosing to defend, or rather, explain his actions (which rookfire did not recognise as immoral or wrong in any shape or form) a smug grin spread on his face, fully committed to leaning into dusklions opinions in a degrading manner. "oh it felt marvellous i can assure you"
with a yawn, rookfire sat, focussing on picking at the grass by his paws instead of on dusklion.
"you know, it would be nice if you just scurried back to the hole you crawled out of, some of us have duties to fullfill" the enforcer proclaimed, mildly surprised dusklion had not questioned him being alone yet since by riverclan standards he'd probably still be sitting in the apprentices den.


[ love dusklion, rook is just mean lol ]
[ hope my reply makes sense i feel like i was half asleep while writing this ]
