Leopardrift nodded, gaze soft and understanding. "I get that, I don't talk to many cats either- care to share a bird? I've had my fill." They said, pawing over the bird, which barely had a few bites in it.

Smokepaw thought for a moment. Well, sure! She mewed softly. I guess that will be fun, but I don't have any training. She admitted, embarrassed. @Zelanna
"Oh whoops! I haven't learned how to hunt either! Maybe we could just practice here instead? To actually think about it, I think Sweetsunrise is out on a patrol." He crouched down wagging his hind playfully.

He signed. "Yeah, okay. He lied down next to them and took the bird. That's one thing about being large, is you have to eat a lot. "What's your name?

The massive tabby thought for a moment. How should he dumb this explanation down for a kit to understand? She often runs around to do her own little "patrols" around camp. He would have to start with that. This would, perhaps, be a good test of his teaching skills since he had just been assigned Dizzypaw.
"Think of walkin' along the edges of the camp, except hundreds times bigger. Our camp is only a small fraction of Thunderclan's territory," He drawled, voice not much more than a low rumble. "The border patrols are vital in keeping the clan safe. They have three major priorities; Reset our scent markers, report any strange or dangerous happenin's to Bumblestar, and challenge any who dare to cross onto our land." He paused.
"To lead a border patrol is to follow the warrior code, protect your clan and the cats of your patrol, and understand what your leader expects of you. It's important to think quickly, because you gotta to know what course of action to take when things go south... and the border patrol is the second most likely type of patrol to go south real quick." He wondered if he did explain it in a way for a kit to understand. Mind, this traitor's child wasn't some newborn. She was almost apprentice age. If this explanation confused her... well, Flintclaw couldn't really think of a better way to break it down.
Rosekit
"I understand." Rosekit responded first and categorized the information that she just received. Priority two and three seem to go paw and paw but it made her wonder what other threats happened that border patrols looked out for. Of course there were predators, Rosekit was so daft as to not know that, but additionally other than that and outside felines were there other threats that she needed to know of? The rest of the information about leading was information that she already knew and couldn't help but feel was condescending, she was 4 moons, not 1.
"What predators do you face? Other than predators and outsider cats? Also how do you handle a run in with them? If you are in a border patrol and come across a den that holds a fox, would it better to risk the fox getting who knows where and return with back up, or would it be better to take it out then and there?" She wasn't in any rush with any further tasks as today was a self assigned learning day. As long as Flintclaw didn't have a good excuse to get away, he wasn't until Rosekit was satisfied with the information she has received from him. That meant, answering all of her questions and questions if the first set of answers gave her more questions.

Oh good, perhaps he was able to able to at least get the basics across fine to a young mind, and it was indeed young minds that, Hawkshiver once told him, decide the future of the clan. If he wanted to mold the future of Thunderclan to his liking, teaching would be an invaluable tool.
He blinked very slowly at Rosekits next barrage of questions and, for a moment, wondered why he let this kit bother him. It would be all morning, if not all day, before all these questions of hers would be answered. Flintclaw realized that this would not be as quick as he initially thought.
He should've volunteered for another patrol.
"Common predators we face would be badgers, foxes, and birds of prey like owls or hawks," He replied, tone even and slow. "and, outside of predators, other dangers include finding things like deathberry bushes, twolegs and signs of them, or new hazards within the territory like a flooded river or a landslide."
He paused at her scenario. He knew how he would handle finding a fox. "Depends on who is on your patrol. Some of us are better at handling other predators than others. If I was on the patrol, I'd kill a fox without hesitation." He emphasized his statement by raising a paw and unsheathing his claws, giving his paw a quick lick before putting it back down.
"But if that isn't an option, letting it wander isn't, either. The best option if your patrol is too small to fight the fox on its own is to send one to get reinforcements while the others keep track of it until you have the numbers to handle it." It wasn't a bad example. Perhaps he would use that scenario to ask Dizzypaw what he would do.
