ThunderClan Clearing

[Snowytail]

Darkwing loaved
Echobreeze yawned
Mintleaf licked herself
Grasspaw swatted at Specklekit (VERY LIGHTLY)
Specklekit jumped on Grasspaw and yelled "KIng of da camp!"
Sunstreak laid down.

SNOWCRUNCH

[OPEN POST]

> He stood at the edge of camp, the cold scraping at his fur like an old wound. His eyes cut through the snow, watching for any twitch, any movement that didn’t belong. The wind stirred around him, carrying whispers, and his ears twitched at every one. He remained still, a statue in the quiet, though he knew better than to trust the silence. No danger, not yet, but his guard never wavered.

Hivepaw glanced around the clearing for someone to bother. Well, less bother and more... someone to help them. If they were going to be a warrior, they will bother all the warriors needed. The stripped apprentice was in a inexperienced stalking crawl, slowly approaching the black and white tom. They successfully surprised the warrior, they'll have to admit that they're pretty good for a first timer.

Hivepaw couldn't help the excited purrs that rumbled from their throat. They looked wide eyed at the warriors, hoping they'll think it was just the wind.

Oh! Flowerhawk seems to be similar to her! Well, much braver and more social, but she tends to ramble too. Hearing the other molly spill so much from her maw makes her feel a tad more comfortable even, less insecure about her own awkwardness. It's a nice feeling- even if she knows nothing about how the cat in front of her is feeling talking to her, though even she can tell the conversation is a bit...strained? Well, neither of them know each other really, so that's understandable. A shiver runs down to the tip of her tail as a cold draft travels through her pelt, her fur rippling in the wind as she squeezes her eyes shut. She lets out a little squeak as this happens,
her nose twitching as she shuffles her paws, her tail coiling more tightly around her hind leg.

"Oh stars, leafbare really is dreadful at times," She exclaims, her voice as quiet as ever but ever so higher than usual, a note of complaint in her tone.

She opens one eye cautiously, as if ready for a gust of wind to be thrown into her face again, blinking before both pale blue hues refocus on Flowerhawk. The snow doesn't help much either, it's very bright and reflective, she might appreciate the pure beauty of it if it wasn't the perpetrator responsible for blinding her every time she looks at the ground- but that sadly is not the case.

"Uhm, w-w-well," She clears her throat, offering Flowerhawk a bashful little smile, "I-I admire your courage, I c-could never go up to a c-cat I don't know and strike up a conversation l-like you did, I would to-totally freeze up and chicken out!"

SNOWCRUNCH

@nyx

>> Snowcrunch didn’t stir as the wind curled around him, carrying faint whispers of movement. His sharp eyes stayed on the horizon, but his ears twitched at the soft crunch of snow behind him. The sound was too clumsy for prey and too deliberate for coincidence.

The touch of an apprentice.

He waited, muscles coiled, until a purring apprentice emerged behind him. Slowly, he turned his head, pale gaze landing on Hivepaw. “Not bad,” he said flatly, though his tail flicked with faint amusement. “But the wind doesn’t purr, Hivepaw.”

He shifted slightly to face them. “If you’re going to stalk someone, keep your excitement quiet. Now, what do you need?”

Silverleopard padded back into camp, glancing over her shoulders to make sure that Fleapaw was behind her.

After she had made sure of that, she spotted Spiderthroat’s familiar calico pelt in the clearing, and the Bengal made her way over.

“Spiderthroat,” Silverleopard greeted him with a respectful nod, her frosty blue eyes narrowing down to slits. “I was taking Fleapaw out for a territory tour, and he started throwing a hissy fit because I wouldn’t take him right up to the scent line at Herondive Hollow. I told him we weren’t moving until he straightened up, but then he made the move to head back to camp so I thought I’d bring him to you and see what you would like to do about it.”

She tipped her head, glancing at Fleapaw. “It was a safety precaution, keeping back as far as I did. I knew you’d have my tail if I’d let your kit fall hurt in any way.”

Silverleopard emerged from the warriors’ den with a yawn, the sunlight glinting on her silver-and-white Bengal pelt. The warrior padded up to the prey pile and grabbed a squirrel off the top of it, then turning to find a Clanmate to share it with.

Her eyes landed on a tom—one whom she’d never spoken with before. Deciding to get to know him, Silverleopard padded over.

“Hiya. Snowcrunch, is it?” The she-cat purred a greeting, settling down beside him. “I’m Silverleopard, and I was wondering if you wanted to share this squirrel with me.”

"She is incorrect about not being able to be brought up to the scent line, but she didn't want to fully listen to me so there's that." Fleapaw retorted. "I was trying to ask where do we know the exact point of where the border is, and when it counts as you crossing the line, but she couldn't explain that to me. There's a lot of varying levels of scent by the border and its a tad confusing. So I got upset about it, I wanted to keep myself safe from any misunderstandings, but I couldn't explain a thing to her without her thinking random things.... So she barely did a safety precaution. I also decided I didn't want to deal with this anymore so I wanted to go back." He huffed.

"Punish me if you see fit dad, but I did not want to be out there with her anymore, she was making me mad." He said waiting for what would happen. It was better off doing this than getting in big trouble for having an anger outburst. He learned this from kitten fights with his siblings that went too far.

“Incorrect?” Silverleopard hissed faintly, flashing a glare at her apprentice. “Stars above, Fleapaw! I didn’t take you up to the scent line because I wasn’t about to let you be attacked by ShadowClanners. Dawnstar’s warriors are vicious, and that is something that every cat in ThunderClan knows.”

She gave a single lash of her tail and turned back to Spiderthroat. “He did not ask where the scent line was—in fact, he’s just now bringing this up,” Silverleopard let out a growl, her curled ears twitching with irritation towards her apprentice. “What he did do was start whining like he’s still a kit and complain that him not being allowed to know where the exact scent line is on his first few days as an apprentice is stupid—which it’s not, and I recall saying that it was a safety precaution. It’s not that I didn’t want him to know, or that I couldn’t explain it. It’s that I didn’t want him to get hurt.”

“For future reference, Fleapaw, you could have easily been able to tell which scent was ShadowClan’s—they smell like crowfood that’s been left to rot for two moons,” Silverleopard grumbled, sitting back on her haunches. “You were just too busy whining and complaining rather than listening to me.”
