He/Him - 31 Moons - Purrks: N/A
Dark brown tom with white stomach, tufts of fur on his
head, green eyes
╚════▣◎▣════╝
The older tom smiled as Wisteriawren spoke, saying that he would be a better mentor then her. "Well, then we outa change that. I'll train you to where you would be a great mentor," he purred warmly, green eyes laid on the pretty molly.
And then he froze, the only response to his question being a light tail thump. He froze, blushing as the molly shuffled closer to him. After a moment, he let himself relax.
Normally, he hated being next to cats. But fluffs was was an exception, she was just so kind and sweet - wouldn't hurt a fly. Sure that could be bad, but at the current moment, he didn't care. Fluffs was the only cat that he was comfortable with at the current moment. She just radiated good energy somehow. Prehaps it was her past as a kittypet, or maybe due to her utter stupidity sometimes.
The dark brown let out a soft chuckle as the gray molly started cheering for the apprentices. Almost imminently, the tom started cheering with her. He didn't want her to feel embarrassed [oh stars, that was just how he felt right now], maybe this could show her that he supported them as well. "Go Cobwebaw! Go Sunsetpaw, Adderpaw, Wrenpaw and Willowpaw!" he yowled, green hues fond as he turned to whisper to the molly.
"Normally we cheer after they earned their full names, but you did good. The clan could use cheering up, and It certainly cheered me up," he purred quietly. Soon, other voices raised, cheering on the apprentices. He turned his head, viewing the cheering cats, and his eye caught Dusklion, staring at them. He furrowed his brow, confused. His eyes remained steady on the deputy, wondering what was going through her mind. Once she started cheering as well, he turned his head back to face fluffs.
"What was with Dusklion?" he muttered to himself, quiet so fluffs didn't hear him. Well, he should focus on something else - he would ask the deputy later. "So, maybe I could get ya some trainin' later, if you're fine with that," he mewed, quickly adding the last part. It would be nice to spend some time with her, and to get a break from the clan. Stars, he hated crowds. But today, he didn't mind it. As long as fluffs was with it.
Cobwebpaw's [ @finley !! ] grin settled Wisteriawren's heart. Oh, her early cheering hadn't been considering offensi- Antlerbranch was cheering beside her too now, and so was Dusklion [ @taillow ]. Returning the deputy's grin, Wisteriawren turned back to her companion, beaming up at him. "Thank you." She murmured, and then brightened at his offer to train her. "Yes please!" The former kittypet exclaimed, and then ducked her head sheepishly, suddenly realizing she sounded too eager. It wasn't her fault - she loved learning new things. She still felt anxious that she... did not have claws like so many other Clan cats did (was it a normal thing around here? Something to do with genes?), but that was okay! Right?
Gasping softly as the new warriors were named, Wisteriawren turned her attention back to Fadingsun- Fading..star? Huh- Wait, the warriors! She could cheer now, right? Other cats were doing it too! "Cobwebfern! Wrenseeker! Adderstrike! Sunsetgleam! Willowtail! Your names are SO PRETTY!"

Willowtail beamed at her leader. Her eyes growing sad as her mother was mentioned. "I promise I won't let Riverclan or my family down." Willowtail meowed gently, looking back at Stagheart with a soft look. As her name was chanted she purred gently. Willowtail saw Wrenseeker with nobody congradulating her. Willowtail approched and gently rested her tail on there shoulder, "Your name is very pretty. Lets serve our clan well. If you'd like, we can perhaps share a meal sometime?" Willowtail purred gently. @Neptune.
Willowtail finished her speaking and nodding kindly to the cats response. Padding to Stagheart, Willowtail pressed her muzzle against his. "Willowtail! Seems he took your name suggestion well." Willowtail cheekily purred. "Seriously, thank you for everything. I wouldn't be a warrior without you.... I don't even think I could bare a smile without you." Willowtail purred, "Your never gonna get rid of me now that we share a den!" Willowtail teased, purring brightly, seeming a lot more like her old self. After a moment she sat down beiside her former mentor and then, while looking up to the sky she whispered. "I did it mom..... I'm Willowtail. A warrior.... Just like you..." @squidz
Weepingpaw jumped to his paws. "Willowtail!" he cheered. Finding his sister easily and licking her cheek. "Mom is proud of you, I know it.... Just wait till I'm a warrior! I'll be Weeping.....Weeping something!" He purred, feeling Willowtail's playful bat on the ears he smiled, nuzzling her once more before running off to greet his friends.

<33 omg her energy matches Willowtail's so much!!! Could they maybe become friends?
Willowtail heard the former kittypet cheering and happy call of there names being pretty. Purring brightly Willowtail bounded over. "Thank you! Your Wisteriawren right? Your name is even prettier what do you mean!" Willowtail gasped excidetly. Her extremly long tail, which gave her her name Willowtail, stuck up happily.

Sunsetgleam. They were officially a warrior now. They and the other 4 cats they were standing beside all managed to live all the way to warriorhood. And they'll continue to live for..well? Everyone they cared for. They just got their name, and they weren't going to lose it anytime soon. "I'm not going to let anyone down" They spoke, in a quiet tone. That was something they were promising. Until the day they die. Maybe even after, who knows? Even if they didn't have many cats who were happy for specifically them, it doesn't matter. Everyone that stood with them deserve to be cheered for by the rest of the clan. They just know they've tried and they'll continue to try harder. Troutstone. Their former mentor. Sure he's not the best mentor, but far from the worst they could've gotten. He may not be there but that's not a reason why they should forget, especially after he's been the one teaching Sunsetgleam since they first became an apprentice; even if it wasn't perfect.
The young warrior looked towards the rest for a moment. Wrenseeker, Adderstrike, Cobwebfern, Willowtail. "Well, congrats to you 4. I guess we did it. We all worked hard one way or another and it payed off." They gave a smile. This was what they wanted to feel and what they wanted the clan to feel. Happiness. For both the new apprentices and the new warriors, and especially after recent events. [ @Neptune. @Fish @finley !! @SeonghwaBerry | Character Mention ]
Sunsetgleam slowly padded forward back towards the crowd. They did hear who they knew as Wisteriawren cheer for the group. Twice. She seems pretty energetic. And that's something they just wanted to see more of in the clan "Thank you! You're name's pretty as well, y'know?" they replied, a laugh escaping their mouth [ @Rose ]

Purring gently Willowtail gave Sunsetgleam and thankful look. "Thank you, we all worked hard through and through. We deserve this. Lets serve loyally together in the future." Willowtail happily meowed, her eyes alight with pride and thoughtfulness. "That's what I told her." Willowtail purred as Sunsetgleam mentioned the warriors pretty name.

There was something about the new warriors being made that created a stir of hopefulness within the deputy. She sat tall and proud as she watched the five of them recite their vows and, in turn, receive their names. Even the small part of her that was irritated about deviating from the traditional words was snuffed out among the swelling pride Dusklion felt for the five.
"Wrenseeker! Adderstrike! Sunsetgleam! Willowtail! Cobwebfern!!" The chants came loud as Dusklion leapt to her paws, ignoring the sting of resistance from her flank. This was their moment, and right now it truly felt like RiverClan was gaining some of the stability back they had lost. Five warriors, five cats who had worked their tails off for this moment. Sunsetgleam and Willowtail were heading back to the crowd, but the deputy still tossed them a nod of approval if they turned around to see it. Coming to stop now in front of Adds and Wrenseeker, Dusklion grinned. "Proud of you both. You both have a fire in you, one that RiverClan hasn't seen much of. Use it as warriors, 'n this Clan is gonna burn more brightly than ever before." And with that the deputy, if allowed, would offer to headbutt each of the new warriors, pulling back to nod at both of them.
Then, finally...
Cobs was now Cobwebfern, and for the first time in what felt like moons, true genuine happiness flowed through the deputy. Turning towards her former apprentice, the dark tabby's grin grew. "YOU DID IT, COBS!" came the loud, boisterous congratulating call from Dusklion as she lunged forward, tackling her kid sister in a hug and ruffling the fur between her ears with one paw. She was careful to not knock her over, but stars! She was proud! Blue eyes glimmered as she looked down at her former apprentice, now warrior. "I'm so proud of you, kid!! So proud of you!"
...A part of her couldn't help but think that Wings and Mossy should be here. The pain etched itself into her heart and her smile faltered just briefly before she reached forward and aimed to draw her tongue across the top of Cobs head. She had done it, despite everything that had gotten thrown in her way, Cobs was now Cobwebfern. "After your vigil, we can make you a new nest in the warriors' den 'n put it right next to mine, okay?"
Lilyglide had not been paying attention to the cats around her. Her light grey paws dug into the ground she was stressing herself out, brain spiraling. Then she tensed up, had she not been seated she may have jumped, That would have been embarrassing, she needed to get it together. Her light yellow eyes look over at Bearsnout, and her ears perk up before she calms down "I'm alright, just worried, We are so far from home, I suppose I wish we weren't exiled from the clans, will we ever make it back?" she mews out her ears lower as her expression saddened. She can't help but miss home. She sighed, knowing she was usually much calmer than this.
"I don't even remember what this meeting was about." She sighed, an expression of how much she was worried for the clan, what if they never make it back? so much could happen where they don't. Worrying a lot she knows, But everything happened so fast it's hard for the she to process it. She looked over at him "Kind of silly, I know. I'm worrying about this like a small kit." She chuckled. She does believe she overreacting a tad, she is sure she is but since the tom came over to chat she miswell talk to him. "Im happy for the new warriors, Don't you think they are going to do great?" she mews.
Bearsnout
The Paladin
29 Moons || RiverClan Lionheart || He/Him
Beefed Up Tier 1 || . . .
. . .
The tom let out a hardy chuckle at her reaction. "Sorry. Didn't mean to scare ya there!" He sat down beside her, taking her response as an invitation. As she begins to speak of her anxiety his blue eyes filled with sympathy and he nodded. "Ah. I feel the same way as you. I'm feeling awfully homesick. RiverClan is meant for the river! Not the mountains." He paused, giving her a thoughtful smile. "But we must have faith and hope. StarClan will not allow RiverClan to be gone forever, and neither will Fadingsun and Dusklion, and the rest of our high ranks. I know I sure as hell won't! Or maybe I'm just too blindly optimistic." He shrugged. His gaze softened more as she commented about how silly it was. "No. No. It isn't silly at all to be worried. Anxiety's quite a natural thing. I think it's a good thing, in fact; to be worried for our future."
The tom redirected his attention at the ceremony and the tons of cats hooting and hollering for their new warriors. He joined in as well "SUNSETGLEAM! COBWEBFERN! WRENSEEKER! WILLOWTAIL! ADDERSTRIKE!!" He cheered with a grin. That might be what Bearsnout enjoyed most about warrior ceremonies; cheering for his Clanmates. He cheerfully flicked his tail and replied to Lilyglide. "I think the new warriors will do great."

Willowtail meowed gently, looking back at Stagheart with a soft look. As her name was chanted she purred gently. Willowtail saw Wrenseeker with nobody congradulating her.

— STAGHEART —
very large, muscular, & scarred light brown tabby tom with stark blue eyes and a torn ear; beefed up tier 2 | just a scratch
[ riverclan warrior | tomcat | 51 moons | gruff & battle-hardened, yet thoughtful; loyal to a fault ]
—
Stagheart lifted up his voice as he cheered for the new warriors, his chest swelling with pride. He'd gone and raised up another able warrior, and Willowpaw — Willowtail now, he'd have to get used to that — and she seemed more than happy about it.
He was just about to make a joke about her suffix when she made it first. He chuckled, briefly touching his muzzle to her ear in an affectionate gesture (just about the most you'd get out of him, still sweet nonetheless). "Your tail's 'bout as long as a willow branch — no wonder Fadin'star gave it to ya after all," he snickered lightheartedly. At her praise and thanks, he ducked his head a bit — he had never been the best at taking compliments, instead deflecting the attention. "You earned it, kid, 'n did all the hard work. I'm honored to have been your mentor through it."
At her comment regarding the warrior's den, he pretended to roll his eyes and let out a sigh. "Sure, 'n here I thought I'd be gettin' some good sleep each night..." Then he flicked her tail with his to show he was only teasing.
It was nice, seeing the way her face lit up and the trademark cheeriness reentering her voice. It'd been a hard few weeks for not only the Clan, but herself — and she'd done it. She'd persisted in her main training and gotten her warrior name. "Don't worry, we'll fix up whatever trainin' y'got left — we ain't lettin' ya go back to ol' Willowpaw. And hey, kid..." He caught her with one last glance before she'd run off to go congratulate the other warriors. "I'm real proud of you, y'hear? Now, go on... enjoy it."
He sat back, watching with a faint smile on his maw as the newly-named Willowtail spoke to Wisteriawren and the other fresh warriors. For the first time in quite awhile, a genuine spark of hope started in his chest; RiverClan had been beaten down and nearly driven out, but here they were, still standing and naming five new warriors to their mix.
Maybe... maybe they'd be alright, after all. Stagheart wasn't an optimist, so it was a muted, hesitant hope — but still hope, nonetheless.
