Her gaze softened, she softly purred. "They'll go away eventually. I just gotta shut my eyes for a 'lil bit and I should be fine. I'm tryin' not to fall asleep. Afraid if I do I may get scolded by the warriors. Since I'd be seen as lazy 'n all. Though I appreciate your attempt on gettin' rid of 'em. If you shoo 'em too much they might sting ya. And we can't have that, can we?" With that she got as comfortable as she possibly could, shutting her eyes. "You can keep talkin' to me if you want. It'll keep me awake. Though I think we might've ran outta things to talk about."
Fleetpaw paused his swatting and looked down at his friend. "If...i-if you're sure." He meowed, setting his forepaws back down. "But you know...I-I wouldn't let you get in t-tr-trouble if you needed to take a nap." He wanted to reassure her, he couldn't imagine how exhausted she must be by now. He didn't really care if he got stung honestly, it'd be worth it if he could get these danged bees to leave. But not even the bees see me as a threat... His shoulders hunched and his ears drooped at the thought of his uselessness.
Then Honeysuckle made the request that he keep talking to her. "Keep talking?" He repeated, as though confirming her request. "L-Like...about what?" It wasn't that they had necessarily "run out" of things to talk about, Fleetpaw just wasn't good at coming up with conversation topics. He particularly wanted to avoid topics about himself, but she explicitly asked him to talk. Oh stars...how am I not gonna screw this up? But before freaking out, he waited nearly breathlessly for Honeysucklepaw's answer.
EGRETKIT she/her . 1 moon . dark brown and lilac tabby with dappling with cream markings and blue eyes

wow, she must be really high if even uncle crows said it. but what's he mean, how'd she get up here? and why does he look like he's seen something scary? "I climbed! see, like this!" egretkit chirps before inching up the galewood more. silly uncle crows! couldn't all cats climb? she doesn't understand why he's so surprised. that's confusing.
"wha...huh??" egretkit frowns, brows furrowed. she doesn't get it. miss twillystar is on the galewood all the time, why can't she be up here too? she just wants to get to the first branch and she'll be satisfied. it's just a little bit higher, she thinks she can make it. crowtooth's words go in one ear and through the other as she continues her mission of climbing the galewood, only stopping once she hears firestorm. she's asking how she got up here, too. what's with that?
"hi, firesis! I climbed!" she meows, very casually given the situation. "I'm okay! don't worry! I don't think uncle crows is, though.." she ends off with a concerned look aimed at the deputy over her shoulder, who still looks very scared. wait..what the heck! she almost missed what firesis said! "b-but..I just wanna get to the branch.." she whines. she stays still for a few heartbeats, feeling dispirited, but then she's right back to climbing. uncle crows and firesis have nooothing to worry about, yep.
"I just wanna get to the branch, okay!! and then I'll come right down, I promise!" she calls out, climbing up the base of the aged maple until she reached the first limb. then she shimmies onto the branch, tiny kitten claws scraping at the wood. ah yes, she feels powerful!! she is leader!! she's AWESOME! if only her brothers were with her to enjoy this accomplishment. sneezy, too!
Fleetpaw paused his swatting and looked down at his friend. "If...i-if you're sure." He meowed, setting his forepaws back down.

Honeysuckle shifted her head to make it easier to talk. She smiled softly, "Could talk about your interests. What do you particularly like? What are things you dislike? I'll try to remember so I know what you like and hate or anything in between." Her ears drooped slightly. Once a bee landed on her ear, their ear flicked.
(Sorry for such a short post!)
