Dawnstar called up the apprentice and Adderpaw waited in anticipation- Mushroomkits name better be called! Pinekit better have not done something to get mushroomkit punished because if he had his pelt would be lining her nest tonight-- Adderpaw blinked momentarily startled by her own thoughts. Where had that come from? She would never wish harm on a clanmate, sure pinekit was awful to mushroomkit but that didn't mean she should KILL him for it? Whatever. The thought was gone now. The braided tabby angled her ears towards the grimpeak and…THERE IT WAS! Mushroomkit! Adderpaw already felt proud and the ceremony had in concluded yet, the apprentice turned to her friend with a smile already plastered on her face but it faltered at the russet's expression. It barely took her a moment to figure out what was wrong when she followed her friend's gaze which was searching for something- someone that just wasn't there. Mother- Dawnstar hadn't called dovekit forward.
Adderpaw mentally cringed at what she knew would be happening soon. Dawnstar would most likely not humour mushroomkit when it came to her sister and Adderpaw knew the conversation would happen soon. ‘dont worry about dovekit I'm sure she'll be fine, there's always next meeting. Go up and enjoy your ceremony and I'll go find your sister ‘ those were the words Adderpaw wanted to say to her friend but they just never formed. Instead the apprentice just stared ahead, her smile now stretched into a thin line. Adderpaw offered mushroom a small smile at her cheery words and composed herself once again, her eyes not leaving a russet friend the entire time. Well mostly the entire time. Somewhere along the line her eyes caught on another figure that was glaring right at her friend. Adderpaw frowned, she didn't understand pinekits hate for mushroomkit. It was so childish.
Dawnstar began to speak again and Adderpaw strained her ears to hear mentally preparing herself to cheer her friend's name and not get tongue tied or momentarily mute. It was important. Dawnstar went through the lists of names and then dubbed them all Apprentices before proceeding by assigning them mentors. Mushroompaw got hazycry as her mentor. Hazycry…the braided tabby found that name to be familiar. Important maybe? Probably one of her many relatives. Adderpaw waited patiently for the moment to cheer and when it came the only apprentice she congratulated was her favourite one- she isn't baised….
Mushroompaw! Mushroompaw! Mushroompaw!” and the other ones.. Adderpaw beamed proudly as she cheered, now standing. Mushroom had finally joined her in the ranks and now they could train together! She would be all alone as much and well, Adderpaw wasn't exactly sure why she was so happy but she just was. Sitting back down and listening to the rest of the meeting.
Midnightclaw beamed at her mother, excited and proud. "I will do my very best to be the best big sister,"she vowed, purring. She gave the queen a swift lick against her ear, showing affection.
Embercloud purred softly in response to Midnightclaw's vow, nuzzling her affectionately. "I have the greatest of confidence in you, dear. Just be your wonderful self!" She purred with a warm smile. "I'm sure the kits will adore you. And you'll be able to teach them so much!" Her heart faintly pined for her dearest little Beetlekit, her first adopted kit. May StarClan be watching you, my little Beetle. But now, sitting with her fur brushing Midnightclaw's and her belly round with kits, Embercloud had never felt more fulfilled. She just couldn't stop purring!
I shall have to tell my brother soon as well. She noted to herself. Truthfully, she didn't care to inform her parents. And if she had any say at all, Creepingshadow would not be allowed anywhere near these kits, not Midnightclaw. Her father perhaps...keeping poor Tigerwhisker away would break her heart regardless. But her mother was...an entirely different story. One that almost brought her fur to bristle, almost. But not even the threat of her mother's existence could dampen the black-and-tortie's spirits now. As far her heart was concerned, she was truly blessed! She cheered the newly named apprentices with renewed vigor, though exhaustion still hollowed the edges of her eyes.
@crow. - idk if you wanna toss Frostedheart in here since he doesn't technically know about the kittos IC yet?
Midnightclaw kept close to Embercloud as they cheered the newly apprentice's names. The enby's eyes flickered over at their mother. It was amazing on how the molly kept the kits a secret for a while, but what amazed Midnight the most was the fact that Embercloud saw her as a daughter. She would never forget this day.

For some reason that was terribly funny. Oh well. "My warrior name? Well, probably something like Morninghaze, or Morningfire." The dark apprentice said, flicking his tail. "Wildstorm would be a cool name. And I do not know what their names will be, Wildkit. Just wait and see." With that, Morningpaw turned back to Dawnstar.
WILDKIT
Shadowclan kit | 4 Moons | Long-furred calico tom with yellow eyes

Wildkit grinned and nodded. "I like them both." He stated, his tone making it sound as though it were some final decision. It would be pretty exciting to see Morningpaw's warrior ceremony. He really did like both names... Though, he wondered what name would actually be chosen. He also wished he could just become an apprentice already!
So, all the apprentices were given their mentors. Wildkit tried to keep up with the clan's chanting, but there were so many names! It was hard to say most of them. The young tom wound up mumbling a few of them together as he just tried to keep up with the cadence of the clan's chant. It was only obvious if you could hear him, as his maw still moved more or less the way it was supposed to.

High Rank Announcement [#hrannouncement]
Hmm, no Littlekit and Flamekit. Dawnstar strolled down the Grimpeak and around to sit before the kits and apprentices. She double-checked again to ensure she had everyone else, and then started the ceremonies.
"Mushroomkit, Ashkit, Nightkit, Specklekit, Grubkit, Twilightkit, and Bonekit. From this moment until you receive your warrior names, you'll be known as Mushroompaw, Ashpaw, Nightpaw, Specklepaw, Grubpaw, Twilightpaw, and Bonepaw." Seven new apprentices weren't bad, nine would have been better.
"Ashpaw, your mentor is Archcall. Birdecho, I'll be trusting you with Twilightpaw. Gutsgnaw, let's see how you do mentoring Bonepaw. Grubpaw, you're training with Owlthroat. Hazycry, you're mentoring Mushroompaw. Cinderspark, Nightpaw is your apprentice. Wormbelly, you're training Specklepaw." If it hadn't been noticed, Dawnstar was making a point in giving some of the newer warriors their first apprentices. It also dawned on her that she had somehow given Coyoteblossom three apprentices.
As one to two apprentices was a lot of responsibility for experienced warriors, let alone inexperienced ones, she wasn't sure how she had made the mistake of giving him three. It was probably her roleplayer's fault; regardless, she'd have to be on top of that. She had already bent her standard rules by allowing new warriors to take apprentices before they had a moon of experience under their pelts; she refused to bend them further.
She was drawn out of her pondering as the clan finished calling out the names. She twitched her tail, beckoning the four forward while rising to her full height. Aside from Stempaw, the rest were Hawkbite's brats. The leader felt her customary sense of pride seeing her clanmates reach warriorhood; more warriors meant a stronger clan. What leader wouldn't be proud of that? She wondered if that sense would take on something different once it was her kits up here. She doubted it, not that it mattered much.
"I, Dawnstar, leader of ShadowClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down upon these apprentices. They have trained hard to understand our ways, and I commend them to you as warriors in their turn." The leader's burning clear drifted from one apprentice to the next as she spoke the next words.
"Stempaw, Hollowpaw, Fishpaw, and Lionpaw. Do you promise to protect and serve ShadowClan even at the cost of your lives?" #shcmeeting

That was it. This was it! The young tom felt his heart soar as his leader named him Ashpaw! He would be getting to train and learn everything he possibly could about the clan and being a warrior! The now apprentice raised his head high and couldn't help but to grin as his eyes sought out his new mentor: Archcall.
Blackjaw sat and listened to the mentor assignments, his ears perked just in case, StarClan willing, he somehow managed to be assigned an apprentice. However, no luck. As each apprentices name was rattled off with a mentor, his flicker of hope extinguished. He couldn't say he was expecting one, but hell, he hoped. The tom gazed at the ground in front of him. He just had to do better. He felt Mosstangle's warmth against him, the only glimmer of happiness to remain with him.
MOSSTANGLE

Ah, it seemed that Blackjaw would not be getting an apprentice this moon. Mosstangle lightly nuzzled his shoulder encouragingly. Surely, he would get one. She wasn't sure if saying something would change his feelings on the matter, though the exact feelings he had she may not know, so instead chose to sit with him and let him talk if he so chose.
(sorry it's short. Brain did not want to cooperate with this one.)
