The little calico molly bounced behind her clanmates. Her second gathering! So exciting! Even if the last one had been a little strange this one was going to be great! She glanced to her side at Wheatpaw, giving him a big smile. Her old friend from the nursery was here! She hadn't had a lot of time for him recently. Training had taken up a lot more of her time than she'd like to admit. She was sure he understood! He was in the same boat now after all. This gathering she mostly stayed with her group. Slugpaw still wasn't sure what rule she had broken last time, but she wasn't about to go offending Riverclan again.

Wide green eyes flicked around the clearing as she scanned to see who was here. She recognized The big dark molly who was in charge of Shadowclan, but the other cat beside her and Bumblestar was new to her. Had she really forgotten that quickly? Crazy how time worked! "So Wheatpaw what do you think? It's your first gathering!" She purred.

Seapaw
he/they - 8 moons - Go with the flow

Another Gathering, but this time... No Salamanderpaw. Looked like she was tuck in camp for a loong while. So, he'd have to be brave! Big and brave! He'd never struggled to speak to cats in his own clan, but the other 3?!? That was a whole different thing. Very, very different. Especially considering his mission today: he had an apology to give. Just thinking about it made his heart sink a little. Hopefully, she'd be here tonight. Otherwise, he supposed he'd have to hold onto his guilt another moon. Pale eyes scanned the stones as they entered - all he could smell was the putrid smell of ShadowClan. Sure, in recent events he'd relaised that the other clans maybe aren't too bad, but that ShadowClan small was just - urgh! It was something he'd never get used to.

Taking a seat, they listened to the soft sounds of the sea. Sounds that could lull him to sleep on the worst of days. Eyes closed as he listened, and got lost in his dream world...
Of being a little fish! A little fish swimming in the waves. Not a care in the world, just water, and fun! Chasing currents, finding little snacks to eat, ooo and doing tricks! Do fish do tricks! He reckoned, if he were a fish, he could do an unerwater backflip!! Yea, that'd be cool.

New, sharp chatter, soon caused their eyes to flicker open. ThunderClan. Now was the time. Eyes flitted through the approaching crowd, until he noticed the calico. Anxiously, he appoached - it looked like she was alreaady with another ThunderClan cat. Oh gosh. Now that he super nearby, this was actually super scary!! Soon, he was right by her, ears low with a slight fear. Oh and his name had changed since last gathering, hadn't it? Well, surely that wouldn't matter, right?? "Er.. Slugpaw?" He started, head lowered politely - before he suddenly got scared that she'd think he was up to no good - "ah! Uh! It's nothing bad I just wanted to say-" He paused briefly, having used up all his breath - "I'm sorry about last gathering." The tom prodded the ground with his paw. Would Salamanderpaw be upset if she knew this was happening?? Well, it wasn't like she was here to see it.. "We - Well, I was mean. You didn't do anything wrong." They added. So that's what it was like, to apologise? It wasn't too bad, actually. But, now what?? They really hadn't thought this far. It looked like Slugpaw was already having a conversation, and he didn't wanna make things super duper weird. "Uh - urmmmm, sorry you're in the middle of something aren't you.." They remarked, not quite anxiously, honestly, a little goofily. He hadn't really considered the fact that he was causing a bit of an interruption. "I can go now!! Have a nice gathering!" The apprentice turned around quick as possible, before glancing over his shoulder, wondering if he should say something else before pouncing away.
