Was he imagining it? Was it just that he hadn't been as tightly curled up in his and his mother's nest and therefore didn't feel the same difference in temperature when stepping outside the nursery, or was it getting warmer? It was very possible that his mind was only making up a comfortable lie that the weather was slowly warming, but it wasn't as cold as it had been a few days ago, right?
Whiskers twitching, paws itching to run, and yellow-blue eyes sparking with something not too unlike hope, Springkit took a few more tentative steps away from the nursery, checked how the air felt once more... and then he was off. Swift bounds across the camp and along the inner wall, still with a kit-like stumble in his steps and lacking the grace of maturer cats but too energetic to care. Because he could feel it in the air. It was like Mother had told him, that the air would warm, birds would begin to sing, the forest would fill of food, and the streams would flod again. The world would be alive again, that was what she had said.
Pretty quickly running out of breath in his small lungs but with a wide smile adorning his face, Springkit came to a halt outside the nursery, having completed a full run around the camp. He had no real purpose for doing it, for running, still a bit too young to think of actively training his body, but there was something in the air that just told him to move, that sitting still right now simply was not an option. Someday, when he was old enough and become an apprentice and get a mentor and get to be outside the camp walls, then he would run across the whole territory.

Springsight had been chilling beside the nursery in a patch on sunlight, enjoying the newleaf warmth soaking into her fur. A purr was rumbling in the young warrior's throat. However, soft, pattering pawsteps had Springsight's blue gaze fluttering open to reveal Springkit emerging from the nursery.
Pushing herself into a sitting position, the molly blinked warmly at the little tom. ''Hello, Springkit. Did you enjoy your nap?'' Springsight tipped her head to the side slightly. There was Springburst here in RiverClan. Then there was Springsight herself, and then the little kit Springkit standing in front of her. Great StarClan, 'Spring' must be a common name.

Springkit
Catching his breath and stretching back on up again after having slouched his shoulders a little, the grey kitten found himself staring right another, older, and much. larger. cat. "Oh hi there!" he said, stumbling a step back to be able to actually look the warrior without straining his neck too much (it was a warrior right? and not like a high rank or someone he should remember a bit better, right? Well hopefully).
'Springkit.' That sounds like a familiar name. Well yeah, genius, it's yours, but like for her... "Oh, you're one of em other 'springs' too right? I'm not mixing up names i dont think. You're Spring-something, or Something-spring, like meee!"
Napping? Springkit was done napping. Not just for the moment but in general. He might be only a kit, a child with about as much wisdom as a pinecone, but he had already understood that napping must be one of the most boring things in the world. Like sleeping during the night? Sure. Everyone else was sleeping anyway, it was cold, and it was harder to see stuff, sleeping then was fine and Springkit was usually pretty sleepy anyways. But sleeping during the day? He had better things to do (like running, like looking at things, like being aliveee), the day was not a time for sleeping. "Napping is boring, I want to do something instead."

“Ocean waters rising above your neck
You feel the glass start to crack.”
Seabreeze shook his head, “No, it’s alright. I’ll have this,” The lionheart motioned to the fish that he was now reaching for on the other side of the pile. Seabreeze was more than fine with having salmon, he liked all fish just the same and fish was the best. Though he could be biased and maybe even a bit stereotypical with fish being his favorite as a Riverclan cat but it just tasted better than most land prey. Seabreeze in the end wasn’t too picky and he moved his eyes from the salmon he now pulled towards himself swiftly not to have another encounter like that. He was about to leave Hollytail to it and to find a spot to eat but then the other was asking him a question. Oh, they were socializing, conversing, and other regular cat things. Did Hollytail want to eat with him? Alright, that’s fine. “Oh! Umm, my day has been alright, I’ve been pretty busy since umm, Birdsnow stepping down but it’s been alright. What have you been up to? Or umm, actually, did you want to move this conversation away from the pile, so we aren’t umm, in the way?” Then he realized that Hollytail had already asked that and he flustered a bit, “Oh, you answered that. Then, any thing happen on any patrols for you recently?” That was basically the same question but Seabreeze was kind of panicking so it would do for now.

It took mudsmoke a minute to realise he had unintentionally startled the she cat. Looking at his paws in embarrassment he apologised, "sorry fogmuzzle, I didn't mean to accidentally frighten you like that." he chuckled self consciously. Great mudsmoke, way to make an impression. After a moment of awkward silence mudsmoke looked up and cleared his throat.
"ahem, Sooo. What did you think that was all about?" he asked, trying to mention the whole situation with the Lionhearts and that intruder in the middle of the clearing. "do you think it was an intruder or messenger from a different clan?" he asked trying to start up a conversation.

Birdsnow wearily dragged herself out of the medicine den. She had put on some muscle and weight, not healthy but closer. Soon she'd be able to get back to... normal ish. Hopefully.

"Pebblesplash?" he asked curiously tilting his to the side confused. He had never heard nor seen this she cat before. If she was Birdsnows mother that would mean she was from riverclan right? Where had she been. Had she run away and abandoned the clan. She was only coming back now. The fur bristled along Mud'smokes spine, cats leaving their clans was a touchy subject to him and he hated any cat who had done such things. Had they no loyalty? It was disgraceful. If his assumptions were true about Pebblesplash being a runaway then he wanted nothing to do with her.
"well it looks like she back, don't know why. She left didn't she? So why is she back" he scoffed and turned to look in the direction of the medicine cats den. He isn't blind, and he was sure that Liondusk, Seabreeze and Mistyshard didn't look happy to see her. He wondered what Fadingsun's reaction to this would be. Would riverclans leader let her back in after being gone so long? Well that thought just dampened his mood. "have an patrols left yet?" he asked turning his attention back to fogmuzzle. "becuase if not I wouldn't mind going on one. Maybe the hunting patrol? I'm kinda bored and lacking some action in my life"

"Well I've never heard of her and for probably a good reason too." He replied, the tip of his tail flicking in irritation. So maybe she didn't flee her clan. She still DIED, assuming she went to starclan that's where she should have stayed. Not all cats could just come prancing back from the grave. His mother didn't so why should she. Reasonably he shouldn't be upset with a cat he never met but he was and he couldn't help it.

Leafflutter flashed her Clanmate a smile as she continue to weave the reeds into the camp walls, her tail tip twitching every so often. ''Hm..'' The mottled brown warrior mumbled softly, blue eyes narrowing.
''Perhaps we could weave some ivy and brambles into the camp walls to keep the reeds from falling out again,'' Leafflutter suggested, turning to look at Martenburr. ''The thorns from the brambles would weaken our enemies - specifically ThunderClan - if they choose to attack us in our very own camp as it would slow them down.''
Martenburr nodded "yeah, that should work out well. shall we go look for some?"
