WindClan Leader's Den

[Rani]

Crowtooth
Windclan Deputy | He/him | 51 Moons

Power Card: Cold Gust

It was both nice and not nice to know Crowtooth wasnt alone in his issues and irritation with the cats in question. He wasnt having individual issues with clanmates so it wasnt a him issue but that also meant that others like Lightningstorm and Twilightstar were having to deal with it too. Ugh, the catch 22 of not being the 'issue' of the situation.


Still all solutions sounded reasonable so, hearing something he probably should deal with going on in the clearing behind him, Crowtooth rose, rasping out a "Sounds good. If ya need help Im here so just call me over. An' good luck wit' all o' those situations, stars blessin's we get a break after this."


Though knowing their track record this would not be the case. So, report done, the tom gave a final nod and wave and bounded off to deal with whatever he was overhearing.


(forgot about this rp until I went to starter the new one oops)

---

When the newly made deputy (and that was still a shock of its own right there) approached the leaders den he was ready this time. Crowtooth would not be defeated by a stupid scramble again. He would not give Twilightstar a reason to thwap him again. He would spend a good 10 minutes dragging a rock over to the base of the den to use as a stepstool to get into the den.


Still wasnt an easy task for a tom with no hops, and the scrambling of his claws could be heard against the wood as he hauled his bulky body inside, but it worked.



Exhausted from the task and perhaps still a bit heart weary from the losses of the last moon the tom shuffled over, gently resting a head on Twilightstars flank as his breath evened. The leader was.... oddly more plump then her perhaps too skinny form leaned to but that was a good thing right? Crowtooth always thought she needed to eat more anyways.


Still he wasnt just in here to relax, though if permitted he might nap here with her after, to get some of the rest the two high ranks no doubt needed. So, clearing his throat the tom began reporting in the calm tone that belayed the lack of true concern in what the latest patrols had turned up.


"Ive started issuin' demotions fer failin' ta do patrols or make up patrols. Tallgrass, Lionpuff, Mallowflash, Loudwhisker, Amberbone and Opossumbug all are bein' demoted, though all but Amberpaw an' Opossumpaw have gone missin' after I handed down the sentence." A frustrated sigh at that. Was it a mistake, cats wandering off as it tended to be so often? Or were cats going to be skipping out on windclan now that they were cracking down on those who didnt contribute. The later idea was a frustrating one, one Crowtooth did not want to consider but it bore keeping in mind for the future.


Though it was only part of the report really.

"Rest o' thin's went well though somethin' interestin' happened at the border. When we checked sedgewater there were no signs o' riverclan but headin' over ta thunderclan afterwards I chatted ta a thunderclan warrior who said otherwise.



Apparently the fish are back an' heavily marked their border wit' thunderclan, somethin' I found right suspicious. Wondered if they were plannin' somethin' hopin' ta fool us that they werent here but I checked sedgewater again next day ta look closer an' bam! They'd scented their border like normal so Ive no rightly clue what that means.


Just somethin' ta note I suppose."
Crowtooth wasnt at the point where he could glean intent of the other clans by their strange unexplained actions but maybe Twilightstar was. Either way they'd know soon enough, the next gathering had to be coming up right?


"The squirrel was friendly though. Think if trouble does start an' we dont wanna tempt fate again wit' the rat queen the bee queen might be an option. Itsa hypothetical right now though."
