@perseus. [just mentioning you once even though Vulture is in two separate lessons ], @dino. @Cupidity @moonlit.x [also mentioning you once]
The heavily scarred leader rested in a crouch and lashed her tail as she attempted to recall who else she was teaching today. Dawnstar hadn't been expecting so many kits to be interested in anything she taught and now she was stuck teaching. "Smokekit, Smolderingkit, Vulturekit, Gentlepaw. If you four want to learn about Clan relations get over here." The massive leader roared in a demanding tone. "I don't want to be here all day, so what do you want to know?"

@fallout? @estelle. moonlit.x, perseus.
With one group done, she found she was still stuck with Vulturekit since he apparently wanted to know about the warrior code. At least she didn't need to call him. "Wildpaw, Dogkit, and Butterflykit, get over here if you want your warrior code lesson." She was done with kits after this class and was eager to get out of camp. Dawnstar was okay with interacting with her clanmates on a day-to-day basis, she couldn't be a leader if she didn't. Still, that didn't mean she didn't find them irritating especially when she was stuck teaching stuff or answering questions she felt was obvious. "Let's get started, ask your questions."

wildpaw had been wondering for a while what this whole warriors code thing was. honestly she already didn't like it since it included rules she hadn't approved herself that she was somewhat forced to follow.. but it was whatever she guessed. at least she got to spend some quality time with her bestie dawnbestie!! ..and who ever the other rodents that were in this with her were. placing her hydromoss beside her she spoke. "dawnbestie i guess my first question is like.. what even is this warriors code?? i've heard talk of it a couple times but no real explanation which TOTES sucks. does it include any rules about thrifting or how to take care of your fur? i doubt it about fur though since none of these warriors seem to know how to keep themselves from being crusty." wildpaw knew in some way that those rules wouldn't be in it as much as she wished they were, because she could tell from looking at other cats in the clan they didn't do her wonderful routines.

| Smokekit |
| He/Him |
| A dark medium grey tabby tom with a white chest & muzzle; Blue & green heterochromic eyes |
~ Smokekit perked up at the call of his name and quickly made his way over to the leader of Shadowclan. Turns out his brothers would be joining this class as well, Smokekit had to show up there before the both of them. The tabby tom sat down in front of Dawnstar quickly glancing over at the apprentice that seemed to be joining them. What did he want to know? Hm.. Oh!
"Thunderclan! Tell us about Thunderclan"
Smokekit had no specific reason why he chose Thunderclan, He just blurted out the first clan he thought of.
| Dogkit |
| He/Him |
| A black furred tom with white paws, tail tip and chin; Green eyes |
~ Dogkit made his way over to the massive she-cat before sitting down. Oh? Vulturekit was here too? Maybe this lesson wouldn't be all too bad. The kit waited for the other cats that were called to show before going to open his mouth to say something. Looks like Wildpaw beat him too it.. hold on. What did she call Dawnstar?? Dawnbestie?? What was that supposed to mean?? ~
The tabby tom quickly trotted over when he heard the call of Dawnstar, his tail flicked behind him as he setteled down to his stinky brothers, Smoldering and Smoke and some others he didn't know the others but he didn't care.
"Yea Thunderclan!" he said after his brother, his ears flicking slightly
Vulturekit hummed as he stayed in the same spot with Dawnstar but another group of kits joined, one being Dogkit, one of his possible new friends? His ears swiveled as he moved so he was sitting next to Dogkit. Though he looked over at the apprentice in shock, DAWNBESTIE? Do they have no respect??

Nightdove would return to the den, holding a dark grey mouse in her mouth. She settled down at the corner of the den, and sniffed the animal before taking a bite. The metallic scent of blood filled the air. Even though her appetite wasn‘t that great, she knew she had to eat, just for the sake of her kittens. After she finished, she would lick her paws, and get comfortable. Nightdove tried to fall asleep, but the pain in her stomach wouldn’t stop. It was a light stinging, yet strong enough to keep her awake. She turned around, and smiled softly when seeing the other kittens play. Nightdove turned her head back, closer to the entrance of the den, and watched the other warriors coming back from a patrol. She lowered her look onto a little bush, near a stone, which seemed to have delicious, sweet flavor, blood red berries. Nightdove was lost in thoughts again. “Berrykit would be a beautiful name for one of my kits, wouldnt it?“, Nightdove thought out loud.

The massive dark furred tom watched in amusement as kits skittered here and there. But a familiar gray and back pelt darting away caught his attention, oh? he mused. Looks like mousestar is off to dirtclans camp. As deputy of dirtclan I better go check on it. he chuckled to himself before padding a few steps but his enjoyment was short lived as a brown blur darted beneath him. He paused looking down at a brown and white tom kit who gazed up in intense concentration. Hi! I’m hazelkit! I’m mouse-bro’s brother wolfwhisper nearly burst out laughing at this small kits statement. Mouse-bro?! Pfft what a funny name however he said, greetings hazelkit? Are you perhaps the medicine cat of dirtclan? he meowed in a teasing tone. Hazelkit’s eyes flashed and his face turned stiff. And he shuffled closer to the bigcat. Standing on his hind paws he flicked his ear as he strained to even get up wolfs leg. Wolfwhisper bent down to let the small thing whisper in his ear. Hazelkit mewed quietly You know about dirtclan? as he said this he cocked a eyebrow. Wolf nodded in earnest and hazelkit scampered off into the nursery with wolfwhisper close behind.
Butterflykit forgot they were doing the warrior code class thing. Learning how to do things correctly and properly could only help, right? Or whatever was seen as correct, at least.
They took a seat, glancing around. An apprentice? Did she not do this as a kit? They couldn't help but stare at the ambitious cat. "Dawnbestie?" Could she not see the cat in front of her was the leader of ShadowClan?
Butterflykit couldn't help but be jealous of how confident she was, but that wasn't something they were worried about right now. They were here to learn, after all.
Another lesson? And she was guessing it wasn't even the cool ones like fighting or sneaking around. This was simply awful, especially considering it was her third. Wasn't she supposed to do, like, two? And what even was this one? Perhaps signing up for the ones that sounded kind of funny and then forgetting about them wasn't the best idea. After all, here she was, a lady of three moons, learning about another thing she probably wouldn't care about. She could always hope it would be something cool, but with the previous pattern of mistakes, that seemed unlikely.
Walking towards the tom awaiting her, Spiritkit blinked back words. She knew this guy, he was at the meeting! Shadetail or something like that. "You. What is this. What am I learning?" Blue eyes stared up at the tom before she opened her mouth again. "Do I get to fight anything?" Fighting things was fun, she liked doing that.
Well, if the way this kit introduced themselves was any indication, they were no Moonkit. Shadowfur's eyes widened in irritation as he was addressed as "you" by this tiny scrap of fur. Too many redundant questions started spilling out of the kit's mouth, irritating him even further.
The Enforcer took a deep breath. Remember Shadowfur, this is just a kit. She probably doesn't know any better. Still, some manners won't hurt her.
"First of all," he growled, "do not refer to me as 'you'. My name is Shadowfur, and I expect to be referred to as such. Second, take a breath and give a cat a second to answer your damn question before you tumble out a bunch of redundant follow-up questions like your tongue is stuck. We won't be fighting; instead, we'll be learning life skills."
He pulled over some twigs, feathers, and some prey fur. "First off, I'll be teaching you how to build and fix a nest. Normally, nests are built primarily out of moss, grass, and the like, but since it's the middle of leaf-bare we don't have access to such luxuries." He paused, shooting a serious look at the kit. "I know you probably think it's boring. Quite frankly, I do, too. However, nobody wants another generation of kits growing up so incompetently that they can't fix a den or make a nest."
With careful paws, Shadowfur fashioned a cup nest by weaving the twigs together. He stuck feathers and fur in the gaps, helping to hold the nest together. Then, the Enforcer blanketed the bottom with the remaining feathers and fur for comfort and warmth. The nest wasn't as sturdy or comfortable as what he'd made with Moonkit, but nobody could be picky in the cold.
Shadowfur dismantled the nest as quickly as he put it together. "Now, you try," he instructed Spiritkit.
