"Waow."

Goldenpaw doesn't really get it. That subdued part of her, the one in charge of her sole braincell, is wary; gathering around and playing with berries sounds like a really good way for cats to get sick...but, the warriors wouldn't let anything toxic grow near camp, right? And it is pretty cool to watch the soft berry-skins burst and give way to shiny berry-guts...

He doesn't grasp the appeal of smearing that stuff on rocks, though. The rock's'll just be sticky and gross. It's...it's just, sitting around and making sticky rocks...woah. Woah. Where's your whimsy, Goldenpaw? Are you seriously hating right now? Really??

Woe! Now he's full of shame. Where'd this totally lame mood come from?! With a heavy sigh, Goldenpaw marches onto the scene with purpose and starts haphazardly pulling berries loose from the thicket that the little kitten had been harvesting from. Goldenpaw doesn't get after them with a rock, though; she mashes them with her paws and then dives nose-first into the mess on the ground to roll in it. This is a self-inflicted punishment for thinking meanie thoughts: now she has ginger patches and mucky berry smears.

The apprentice pops up after some thorough wallowing, fur all smudged and nasty. "Hey, how's it lookin'?"

PEACHKIT . 5 MOONS . HE/HIM . THUNDERCLAN

#summernymego : ' ROCK & MUD PAW PAINTINGS '

"Ew."

Peachkit's approaching with a bad attitude about it because he's got a bad attitude about everything, but it's not long at all before he's sat down and locked in. Snowkit's a friend, after all. If whatever she's found is interesting, then he's going to partake.

Peachkit darts a paw out, nudging a stone up
and out of the earth before using it to mash a berry flat. He awkwardly flips the stone over and blinks down at the smear left behind by a popped berry. Hesitant, Peachkit nudges the art piece over for Snowkit's appraisal.

"Is it like this?"

《 Alpinepaw 》
130/100
she/her | Thunderclan apprentice | 6 moons

Alpinepaw tilted her head at the stained stone and looked around. There were not many cats here. She picked another berry and threw it at a nearby rock. Splat! It was overripe and made a red smudge on the rock.
