Oh YEAH! BrindlePAW was almost jittery with excitement as he followed Dogday out of camp. He was already training! He was already training! Well, getting a tour of the territory, which wouldn't actually train him, but still!!! He was out and about, doing THINGS! Stuff and things his siblings had already done, and he needed to get done in order to catch up to him. He was happy Dogday was his mentor, he seemed equally eager to train and be...useful. Brindlepaw wasn't useful yet, but he was becoming more useful by the minute. Or at least, that was what the fancied internally. If only because he now could describe a smidgen of what was outside of camp to kits, if asked. It wasn't the most useful a cat ever was, but it was a start.
Brindlepaw was gazing about in wonder as Dogday led him through the territory. Everything was so BIG! And GREEN! He was aware that it wouldn't always be this green, surely at some point Leaf-fall and Leaf-bare would strip the newly budding green life from the trees and plants and ground. But at the minute it was beautiful, lush and exciting and full of life, only to get better with Green-leaf he presumed. He hoped. For now, Brindlepaw was happy to follow his mentor gazing around at everything, until they reached Firefly Cove, or so it was announced. It was beautiful, though there were certainly some....weird smells about it.
I'll have to come here later some time! he chirped, making sure to respond to his mentor before anything. Wanted to make sure he wasn't seen as....disrespectful, or something. Though, it was hard to contain his rather violent nose-twitching at the smell.
But......what's that smell?? It smells so.....bad! Rather disgusting, if he was honest. He was NOT a fan.
