"You're beginning to sound like an elder, Cinds." It wasn't without amusement - Jaystride thought the 'wise spirit' talk was funny and so in-line with her. She was always a smart cat, her self-isolation in death just made her come back... more wizardy.
"Well, regardless of their uncertainty Bumblestar's gonna whip 'em into shape real fast. If they can't keep up, she ain't gonna tolerate it." It reminded him .. of someone, though he pushed the thought aside. These kids had a better start, a thousand times over - if they faltered it would be different.
Stars, he wished that damned badger hadn't cornered him. If he could experience ThunderClan as-present... it'd be like a dream come true. Who woulda thought one of the kids they looked after could go on to bring stability to their broken Clan?
A shake of his head. Then, Jaystride reached to bop Cinds on her nose before he took off.
"Last one to the Windtorn Oak is a rotten egg!"
