Uh huh. So Nightgaze was....waving her paw around. He had no clue what that meant, off to a good start. And then.....stumbling around like a kit. Almost falling over, and Brindlekit had to put a little bit of effort into not snorting with mirth, because he was NOT going to be rude when things were actually going well for once. And now swatting at something. But not, like, fighting swatting. Weird kitten swatting. And then sleeping? Was she a kit? Was that the word? A kit? Brindlepaw hazarded, head tilting to the side. But maybe that was wrong. Elders also tottered around a bit, so maybe Or an elder? Or...... he didn't want to overwhelm Nightgaze with guesses, but he also didn't want to take too long thinking and force her to act more. The nursery? If that wasn't it his next idea would be....he didn't even know. Maybe the medicine cat's den? You were weak and got hit so you had to rest? He was decidedly not cut out for this. @Morrigan

Alpinepaw thought, "How am I supposed to be that thing?" She stood there for a while, before flopping down on her belly with her legs outstretched like a pancake.

Lightlark's eyes gleamed and she jumped to her paws and let out an excited yowl. ''You're falling!'' She purred.
@Rani - Feel free to have Mudhound scold her for being too loud lol.
Sproutfleck you're a sky full of stars
Such a heavenly view
You're such a heavenly view Purrks: Beefed Up T1
Sproutfleck made a small purring noise of laughter
against his will. Her licked his chops, then raised one
whisker brow, shaking his head and repeating the action,
unsure of what else to do. This was incredibly lame. How
in the world? This was easy! She should get it by now!

It was funny how some cats seemed more skilled in this then others, and that creativity and a willingness to try anything and everything would get your point across better then expected. Not shocking really, that those were the favored attributes in an event run by Mudhound. The more serious cats could get a proper competitive training event later, for now acting was the game!
"Nice spotting Twilightforest! It was a bee, good acting Blazepaw you guys got it first! "
Looking on the other groups Mudhound winced as Lightlarks guess for Sproutfleck was sooooo close but not quite there and in the end Hawkcatcher and Drizzlecloud guessed faster. Nightgaze and Brindlepaw, tied for the top were not to be outdone though and managed to nail a rather hard one with nursery.
In the end Lightlark didnt get it and Mudhound decided to help a bit, piping with a "Going forward Lightlark to help you out, each pair gets a unique word each round so if Drizzlecloud and Hawkcatcher have swimming youre not gonna. I think you make a really good.... what you are Sproutfleck so you two get a bit of extra time! Maybe try pointing at your thing (we got some in camp) and making its noises to help? If you wanna!"
There were some pairs that didnt participate this round it seemed, Oatpaw, Dragonflycliff, and Mallowpaw left alone and Mudhound really hoped it was just a single round fluke. If it wasnt the hope was they'd find new partners, so Mudhound gave some time for that to occur.
"Alright everyone five minute break while Sproutfleck and Lightlark give it one last shot! Everyone whos been quiet, poke you partners and maybe like plan for your next word? I said you cant talk but I never said you cant signal, maybe make a few key gestures to indicate if its a cat, animal, plant or thing to narrow the guesses! You will have to actually sign it though~"
(OOC YOU ALL HAVE 24HRS UNTIL I SEND OUT NEXT ROUND PROMPTS TO PLAN WITH YOUR PARTNER OR MAKE SURE YOURE BOTH KEEN TO CONTINUE!)
Springing to her feet in an instance, Nightgaze nodded vigorously. "Ya got it! Great job Brindle!" she purred happily, using a nickname for Brindlepaw like she usually did for everyone in her clan. Her trust was not misplaced! The small warrior cat was seriously impressed by how the apprentice got it, she was sure her acting was terrible!
Ok, ok, they got extra time! Great, now they could get down what some gestures meant! "Allllright! So this means small..." She held her paws in front of her and began moving them closer together, making the gap between them shorter "...And this means big!" Night did the sam action but moved her paws further apart thhis time. Looking back up at her partner she smiled widely. "Get it?"

Weeeeellll Larklight gave it their best shot at least? The tripod giggled, admitting "He was a bird and a good one, nice work Sproutfleck, but good guesses!" before moving on and reshuffling some cats who hadnt been active.
"Oatpaw youre with Mallowpaw as her partners scampered off! That just leaves Dragonflycliff alone sooo...." Hmm this was hard. "Actually Dragonflycliff why dont you join them? One of you acts and the other two can guess, you have a bit of an advantage buuuuuut I can balance it out! Group of three, yay!
Ok guys words incoming! This is the second to last open round and then we go into tiebreakers if we need them~ Aaaaaaand go!"
Alrighty yall I am so sorry I was gone for so long I had to take a break to get a uni project done! Groups have been rejiggered to whoever is left but at this point I totally dont expect ppl to stick around if they dont wanna so ping your buddies to see if theyre still in! Prizes still stand and good luck have fun we're in endgame!
