Crowtooth
Windclan Deputy | He/him | 51 Moons

Power Card: Cold Gust

The walk was long and quiet and something in Crowtooth could tell Rabbitpaw didnt really want to talk, so the tom stayed quiet. He did make sure to stay in pace with the apprentice and walk with their sides brushing however, if asked it was because he was cold and totally not because he wanted to cuddle. Nope.


The starry meadow was.... Well it was normal really, perhaps a bit blanketed with a light layer of white snow and even more quiet then normal. Nevertheless Crowtooth broke away to dust the snow off of the stone that marked Bravebirds grave, an ear on Rabbitpaw as he did.


"I dont think its wrong ta do a memorial. Im sorry ya dont 'ave the closure that'd help ya an' it aint morbid ta wanna close that chapter in this way, find a sorta conclusion in yer own mind. Would be morbid ta bring 'im here if he does come back.


Might do one fer Winterpaw myself even. Just not right now."
Crowtooth often still wondered in the quiet moment if he couldve done something more to stop his old apprentice from going missing. If something had happened to take him away that the mentor hadnt been able to stop. But even as a mentor, a deputy, he couldnt control all aspects of life so he made sure to not linger on it.


"Ya cant.... Ya cant hold yerself responsible fer this by the way kiddo. Yer a kid still, brother or not the adults are the ones who should be doin' more. An' even then, no one can control everythin' an' life sometimes just... happens. As unsatifyin' that can feel. Ya did yer best, more than even, dont let loss stop ya from bein' happy. Because trust me" A fond, bittersweet look down at the grave that held his sister. "That aint what anyone who loves ya wants."
