Willowpaw looked at Starrypaw. "Well...... it can be. I was a very cheery apprentice and sense I'm smaller than most I was taken care of more even though I hated it. But with you I think you'll have equal treatment, but yes it is a bit hard especially at first. But it kinda turns into routine."

Starrypaw thought. "So no one care if I was a kittypet, became a loner, then joined the clan? and that i don't fit in at all, and that i hate water?"

Willowtail looked at Starrypaw. "Were Riverclan not savages." Willowtail teased gently, "Your gonna get teased cuz cats our age are tough on you. But ignore them. There just jealous your better than them."Willowtail purred encourgingly. Laying beside the apprentice, Willowtail gave a gentle flick of her abnormally long tail, "I got teased through my apprentice days for being so lanky and having short fur. It's cuz I'm half Windclan."

Huh, Splashleap had expected to be immediately attacked by a poor imitation of the move she had demonstrated. That was normally how things went with kits, show them a trick and they did it poorly right back at you instantly, probably with their claws out because they could get away with it. But Salamanderkit seemed to be considering her words instead, and Splashleap enjoyed the moment free of assault.

The question was something of a surprising one, so the warrior had to think a bit before answering. Couldn't be spreading false information, now could she? You might at first, but eventually it's muscle memory. Like it's instinct to dodge, and you learn to watch for sneakier attacks without having to think about it actively. But if you're trying to do a fancy attacking move yes, you will have to think. That was why Splashleap stuck to a few favorites, somewhat tailored to her small size and relative speed. Quick darts and feints, always trying to avoid getting crushed.

Salamanderkit's suggestion to avoid thinking was......more along the lines of what she expected from a kit. That could work, if you grow big. she mewed, although privately she didn't think a future as a massive warrior was likely. It's good to learn how to think a little bit just in case though. In case you ended up tiny like her, more like. And then, predictably, Salamanderkit started hitting her.

The paw in her whiskers wasn't particularly painful, but Splashleap did have to cross her eyes something fierce to track it's movement. She was having so much fun with her distorted vision that she didn't notice the paw headed for her leg until it was too late. No great damage was done, nor was any effort made to move the target, but she gave a somewhat excessive Ouch! before smiling at Salamanderkit. There you go, that's the kind of thinking you need! You had me properly distracted crossing my eyes, and then BAM! Yes she was playing it up a bit, sue her. It never hurt to indulge the kits a bit. @nyme

"What's Wind Clan?"

Willowtail blinked. Shifting gently. "There bastards I'll tell ya that. Well were Riverclan. We used to live by the River clearly, but Windclan lived next to us. We shared a border with Thunderclan and Shadowclan and Windclan was just beyond Thunderclan. Windclan lives on the moor, they eat rabbits and some birds for a living and are skinny and small. Which is where I get my build from. And I'm just extra small because my mom was a decently small cat and my dad is a munchkin cat so he's extremely short." Willowtail purred. Flicking her long tail to show Starryoaw. "And my names Willowtail for a reason, my tails abnormally long..... i'm used to cats stepping on it at this point." Willowtail joked with a gentle purr, her ears flicking gently. "I don't have the best background though........ my dad did..... some bad things to my mom which was the cause for her having kits.... all three litters weren't supposed to happen but here we are." Willowtail sighed.

Willowtail flicked her tail, "I'm the oldest... the second oldest is my brother from the second litter Weepingpaw.. the our adoptive sister Berrypaw who is also the medicine cat apprentice." Willowtail added with a bit of pride. "Then the youngest and last litter was little Daisykit... she was born oddly though... Daisykit is as fragile as a newborn even though shes almost 1 and a half moons. She bumps her bum to hard while sitting and shes bruised for a week.... and her focus is horrible... she was just born with it..." Willowtail mewed gently, realizing she'd blabbed on. "Oops...... sorry I tend to blad when I get excited." Willowtail meowed.
