ShadowClan Patrol Place

[Fish]

Leapingpaw padded over to the patrol group. It was late but it couldn't care less.

@alec @gs29513 tardy but you guys havent left yet so plop

[Estelle]

With surprising gentleness the tip of the small molly's tail came to tap her younger golden brother's shoulder in response to his little headbud, idly listening to his blabber as he spoke swith mama, resurfacing something she had priorly considered - sort of, a family training session. She wanted to see all her siblings trained and well, and perhaps... Training together could help. But her thoughts were distracted by her mama's comforting nuzzle, an action she leaned into and returned with lightly closed eyes, taking in the scent that clung to her fur and keeping close as she could for however long mama allowed her to, listening to the comforting sound of her voice. She missed these moments. If only they could be more frequent.

Vibrant eyes watched as mama spoke to Bleedingpaw and Birdpaw, and her interactions with the elder and younger of her little siblings as each got a turn with their mother, before finally, she spoke to her again.
''We will.''
Sleepysunrise assured, giving her mama a last light bump of her forehead against her chest, as she often did in minute signs of affection meant only for mama, eyes trailing her as she gathered together her own patrol to leave.

By then, Quietpaw had made her appearance as well, and Sleepysunrise beckoned both the angrier and the quieter of her siblings closer with a light flick of her tail, mind switching back to the duty at paw as she began to head out.
''Let's go.''

Prompt and on time, if she could say so herself, Sleepysunrise liked that. Ensuring both Moonpaw and Quietpaw were still trailing behind or beside her, or ahead if they must, the youngest enforcer took the younger pair back inside camp and waved them goodbye with a lengthy silent glance and light wave of her tail before black and single white-tipped paw led her towards the deputy who had sent these patrols, head tilting slightly as she began her report.
''Border marked. Nothing amiss.''
Simple and to the point, there was little more to add beyond the formalities of information, unless Mistlewhisker had any specific question. Besides, her siblings had done well.

HE/HIM • ENFORCER • 31M • SHADOWCLAN
"A large marbled tabby tom with large, tusk-like teeth."

---

The tom padded into camp, his patrolmates in tow, as he gently placed Yellowtwist's body at his feet by the Command Post. Gazing at Mistlewhisker with a solemn expression. "We found him out in the territory. He had been attacked by rats it seems. I couldn't leave his body out there alone."

Tuftedtusk kept his gaze firmly on the deputy, eyes betraying his sadness at losing a fellow enforcer. Even if he didn't know the yellow tom well, it was still a loss for the whole clan.

ROOKFIRE
[ he/him | shadowclan enforcer | purrks ]

in order to make up for the time they lost both hunting and originally waiting on leapingpaw, rookfire set a brisk pace on the way back, arriving to mistlewhisker luckily not yet looking disappointed and, or, mad. the enforcer made a beeline for the deputy, uncaring if his patrolmates were behind him or already delivering their prey to the freshkill pile.
"we arrived at whispering wetlands to a whole bunch a' frogs, caught a few. windclan appears to be having the same issue but i didn' see any obvious trouble this increased frog population is, or could be, causin'. they should be a good source for prey in the near future, 'specially cuz the windclan patrol we saw were chasin' em over towards us..wherever theyre all comin' from." he rattled off after dropping the frogs that had remained uninjured between his fangs by their paws. whilst cool grey eyes remained trained on mistlewhisker, the enforcer lifted one paw to nudge one of the frogs that had slid a bit farther away than he intended back towards the pile of five and one frogs...man he really needed to find out what number comes after five..

following dismissal, rookfire gathered up his frogs again, consistently fighting the urge to frantically drag them to the side to not have to continue standing in front of mistelwhisker while doing so. ultimately, he managed to sort them back into a more or less comfortable carrying position without freaking out and hopefully looking more or less calm and confident from the outside. this would be a pretty silly thing to freak out about anyway, but honestly, he had had worse reactions to less before. with five and one frogs discarded onto the prey pile, the enforcer returned to whatever he had been doing before.

[ rook: 6 frogs, leapingpaw: 2frogs, shrewstep: 3frogs + maybe more?? ]

Lostspark

Returning from Evergreen Grotto with her three kin in tow, Lostspark directed them to drop off their fresh kill by the pile (for easier logging, respectively; Lostspark’s 2 mice, Cinderpaw’s vole, Birdpaw’s finch, mouse, and frog, Wispypaw’s 2 mice and a crow) and then made a beeline for Mistlewhisker, her paw steps assured but her brow furrowed with doubt. “Hunting patrol went well. Cinderpaw, Birdpaw, and Wispypaw showed up, caught prey each. I went looking for herbs and…” The former medic blinked, expression somber. “Something’s chewed them up. Patches of herbs. All bitten, gnawed on.”

Since Darkfall wasn't present, Mudslide opted to wrap up the patrol herself even if she was late. She gave the deputy a respectful nod and a twitch of her muzzle. "Neutral." She whispered, her voice raspy and hoarse. She then flicked her tail to Silentpaw behind her, hoping that Mistlewhisker would quickly realize Darkfall's absence. "Slippery." She commented one last time before padding off.

Briarsplash returned with a rather sour look on her face, although she shook her head as if to clear it away once she was actually coming up to face the deputy. Half-dried mud clung to her legs and fur, a clear indication as to just how sopping wet Darkwater Mire was at the moment. She deposited her prey in the pile and padded over to the deputy to make her report (with whoever might have followed her if they responded in time).

"...Flashpaw 'n Raspberry swirl showed up for the patrol, but didn't really see 'em once we got out there. Nightpaw caught something, but not sure if there was anything else. Most of 'em didn't listen, so I just told 'em we were leaving and then headed here so we weren't late. They might be following behind, not sure." Her raspy tone was slightly annoyed in reference to the situation, though she kept her calm and spoke respectfully to Mistlewhisker. Then she wrinkled her nose a bit, glancing with a grimace at her thick, fluffy coat being coated in mud. "Uh, as you can see... place is about flooded from the recent rains. Mud everywhere. Makes it hard to get around. Would recommend avoiding it for now until it dries up a bit." Stars, this was gonna take awhile to clean up.

Midnightpath
Shadowclan
She/her
Purrks: Silver Tongue(active) & Hulk Smash(inactive)

This was the first patrol that Midnightpath had lead, so as she returned with her patrol and their catches, she found herself being a touch anxious. Depositing her mouse and squirrel in the prey pile, she returned to where the patrols had been assigned–making a beeline for Mistlewhisker.

“Hello,” She greeted, dipping her head respectfully. “I apologize for coming back a touch later than the others. We all caught our share of prey–the apprentices did well. We ran into a few problems, hence our late appearance. Hillstrider got himself injured and should be headed to the medicine den to get his nose checked, and we also ran into one too many snakes for comfort… And a bat.”

Her ears lay flat against her head as she rambled on about the oddities that they had faced during her patrol–oh, what if she thinks I'm a terrible patrol leader? I'll never lead a patrol ever again in my entire life! “...But everyone came home safe nevertheless. Again, my apologies.”

[ @Mica @paedyn @Rani - Midnightpath returned with 1 squirrel and 1 mouse ]
