RiverClan Apprentices' Den

[Abyssopelagic]

Flyfur was used to the way Gingerpaw said things and understood what he meant. She gently pressed her nose into his forehead. "Wouldn't dream of it." On a less serious note.... "Besides, if I left, who'd help Sugarapple take care of all the stray kits?"

If Gingerpaw had been any other cat, he would be offering a small smile, but Gingerpaw was Gingerpaw, and he somewhat smiled on the inside at touch of Flyfur's nose to his forehead.
Although his ear couldn't help but twitch "stray kits?" He asked as he glanced to her, his eyes slightly narrowing. He hadn't heard of those yet- which wasn't a surprise, he didn't pay much attention unless someone specially tells him. @Rainquail

"It's quite recent, actually. Several patrols found abandoned kits and brought them to the nursery. They don't seem to be sick, but Otterstone herself is going to do a more thorough check herself before they're given free reign."
It was odd how many kits were suddenly being found. And concerning. Who was just up and leaving them? Riverclan was already housing quite a few cats and were extremely limited on space.

Gingerpaw couldn't help but ever so slightly frown at her explanation- more kits? All abandoned? How was that even possible- geez Riverclan was almost starting to become a shelter for outsiders! Well.. he didn't mind the outsiders to much actually, a cat was a cat, it was merely that so many seemed to join these days, and now a bunch of abandoned kits? Strange.
"gues i'll be seeing them around then" seemed like Riverclan was going to get louder than it already was. Great. Just great.

I think I've said all I can say today but If you want to seem like you're being productive, you're more than welcome to make your way to the nursery to help with nests or ticks and the like." His tone expressed the idea as more of an order than a suggestion but the deputy's wording specifically left it open for Mossypaw to decide what he wanted to do. Sootflare could order him around as much as he wanted, but it was up to Mossypaw to actually work on improving.

Mossypaw nodded in agreement with his mentor. "I'll see what the queens will need." Deep down he hated the fact that he had to do apprentice's work but he would never show it. Not when his rank and place was on the line. The calico dearly missed being a warrior with little duties and being to go out of the camp whenever he wanted. Still meeting Sootflares gaze he asked one more question. "Anything else?" If he proved to the deputy that he wasn't a lazy, waste of space bag of bones he had to be more productive around the clan.

Berrypaw bounced into the den, Bubblingbee's tail still in her jaws. Thank StarClan, that old hag is gone. She padded over to her nest and sat down. Neatly placing the bones around the rim of the nest, she sat back and smiled at her "trophy". The young apprentice stepped into her nest, yawned, and curled up to sleep.

Lilytail looked into the Apprentice's Den. "Tinypaw, you in there?" She called. "Let's train. Meet me outside camp, ok?" SHe withdrew and headed out of camp, excited to train her apprentice.

"Oh, training was fun. Mister Ms. Sassyfire taught me how to fish." The ginger and white tabby patched apprentice explained. "Wow, your gonna be a warrior soon! Congratulations Goosepaw!" Patuniapaw called in amazement. One of her den mates getting promoted to warrior was always amazing.

"Oh, you have Sassafrassfire as your mentor?" His ears perked up at that note. He wasn't exactly sure why he was so interested in it, he just... was, if that made any sense.
"Man, I don't know how you guys fish," he commented. "Water freaks me out." After seeing Sparkheart... he didn't think he would ever be comfortable with swimming or anything related to water ever again.
He drew his tongue over his paw, pride flickering in his chest. "Yeah, I guess it's pretty cool," he said nonchalantly, but inside he was practically jumping with joy. He smiled at her. "Thanks."

Morningmeadow padded into the apprentice den to see Goosepaw. She couldn't believe he was already about to become a warrior! It had only felt like yesterday when she had given him a tour of Riverclan. Although, she was pretty upset with herself. She had really wanted to be there for his final assessment, he was her first apprentice after all. "Goosepaw? You in here?"

[ @:Grimm: ]

The only response was a low grunt and the shuffling of fur and moss. He curled in tighter to himself and wrapped his paws over his face. There was no way he was going to let her see him so... so broken.
