Snowybreeze's day had started out quite well. In fact, he had plans. Big plans! Involving loads and loads of hunting. Because... well... It seemed there was something... peculiar going on with his little treasures. Not something bad, necessarily. Just... worth noting, he supposed.
What it boiled down to was basically they were hungry. Like... uncomfortably hungry. No matter how much they ate. And well... The Maine Coon mix thought it was understandable. Strawberrykit and Cardinalkit were growing up quite a bit. As much as he did as a kit. Frostkit, Jaggedkit, and Seedkit were still on the smaller side - namely Frostkit and Jaggedkit, really - but what if they were just not eating enough? He hadn't thought anything of them being so small at first, truly. Berryfrost had been completely dwarfed by his own size, so he had just assumed they would resemble their mother more than him... which to be honest, was probably preferred. She had always been the better cat of the two of them, after all!
But their hunger seemed to hint at something else. A growth spurt in the making? Goodness... that very possibly could be it! And if it was? Well... That meant that it was his job as their father to provide as much food as possible! Fresh food, too! He had noticed their faces sometimes when they were eating. Cardinalkit seemed to be able to eat anything, even rocks just fine. The others were pickier, and he could think of no better way to make sure they were enjoying their extra feeding requirements than with a fresh rabbit or two. Why, just thinking about it was making his mouth water!
And yet on his way out... it happened. The medicine cat called him out for patrol. Goodness, she seemed to be calling on him an awful lot lately... A part of him was honored. He hoped this meant she saw him as a reliable clanmate, because... golly... He certainly tried to be! But at the same time, it was quite daunting. Because what if he let her down? Eep!
Plans changed for now, Snowybreeze headed towards Lightningstorm, dipping his head respectfully towards her before turning to Dustbunny as she was called over as well, offering a bashful smile in greeting before dipping his head at her as well. Attentive to what the herbalist had to say, the gentle giant almost screeched in horror as she revealed that this was not Dustbunny's patrol to lead... but his. Oh. Oh no. Oh dear. Oh golly. Um... he did not mean to be disrespectful or state that the calico was wrong but, surely the more experienced warrior should be in charge? She had been in charge back during the fire, and he had been more than happy to take orders from her. Surely that same status quo could be maintained here?
And that was a no. Instantly shut down by the medicine cat. Oh... if he could only cry without wasting their time, he would! And what was worse! He was to fumble and blunder through this while leading his apprentice with them as well?! Oh goodness. Ever since Milknose, not a single apprentice of his had made it to warrior. All of them gone. Probably done with his ineptitude and decided to leave the clan. He couldn't blame them. How much faith could you have in a clan that had a cat like himself in charge of teaching an apprentice? Oh... StarClan help him.
With a gulp, the cinnamon patched warrior tried his best to settle his nerves - he had to be a good warrior and be a good role model for his kittens and his apprentice, by golly - the tom sniffed at the dark roots the molly had brought out for them, the scent distinctly its own in the WindClan clearing. Alright. Finding something by scent... This was not the first time he had done this. He could do this again. In fact, if he pretended that Lightningstorm was the real patrol lead, he could just assume that he wasn't really ordering anyone around. He was just... leading them with his nose to wherever the roots grew! Yes. He liked that. Much better than the notion of daring to impose on his clanmates.
With a sigh to soothe his frayed emotions, Snowybreeze turned towards the clearing, his soft voice calling out as loudly as he dared - almost loud enough to seem like a cat speaking to another besides them in regular conversation - for his apprentice. She had just been reassigned to him the day before, and frankly, he had been too much of a coward to show his face to her. What if she was as disappointed as Vixenpaw? As frustrated as Crookedpaw? As disillusioned as Hushpaw? He wasn't impressive nor special, and just about any other warrior would have made for a more remarkable mentor. Silverpelt above... he had to get a grip for this, or else Lightningstorm was going to glare at him again!
"D-Daffodil... Daffodilpaw. If you. If you could just. Join us. To go. Gather. Some herbs. Please. I would. I would be most. Most grateful. To you," he mewed in an apologetic voice as pale blue eyes scanned the clearing for the light haired paw.
Fleetpaw's ears perked up, his sensitive hearing picking up the sound of his name even as he was tucked away in the apprentice's den. Hunting? The skinny tom padded out of the apprentice's den carefully so as to not disturb any of the nests. Once free, he dashed over to Dustbunny's side, ready to set out.
Patrol? Daffy bounced over at the sound of her name, scrambling to get there with the rest of her patrolmates. Taking a moment to straighten out her pelt, she listened closely to the description of the herb Lightningstorm wanted. Burdock. Okay! They'd have to dig it out huh? Sounds like fun? The pale yellow she-cat was already bouncing with excitement when Snowybreeze addressed her. "Of course!" She chirped at his question. "It's what Lightningstorm asked us to do right? Let's go!" She purred eagerly, dipping her head respectfully to the medicine cat before turning to Snowybreeze, tail waving with excitement as she waited for him to lead them onwards.

Bouncepaw hesitates, then carefully pulls over the rabbit. It's lean, but it's big enough for two. Besides, he bet Cottonpaw would want to place his own freshly caught prey onto the fresh kill pile.
"We can share this one." He mumbles. "You can put your mouse on the pile."

Lightningpaw had heard his name from Lightningstorm and would come bounding up however he would see Vinesmoke his friend who recently was named the newest Tunneler he would call out to him. "Hey Vinesmoke!" Lightningpaw would call out as he took a detour to his friend as he approached he would continue. "I wanted to say congratulations Vinesmoke on becoming a Warrior and a Tunneler. I know you worked hard for it hopefully my Warrior Ceremony isn't far off either it's been lonely without you or Rabbitpaw around in the Den. At least I still have Barleypaw around." Lightningpaw would say to his friend he hoped that Lightningstorm wasn't too angry with him stopping to tell his friend his congratulations. @Tallstar @Alchemist Kitsune @Estelle @Witchy Madelaine

The she trotted over to Ashcloud, that's who is leading the patrol, she awaited instruction. This was the first actual patrol she had gone on as a warrior. "You ready?" The small she asked the cat.
Im confused on which app is on this patrol, is it snap, silk, or twist??))
Rabbitfur led Sneezepaw back, dipping his head to Crowtooth before setting down his prey at his paws.
+1 mouse, +2 thrush
"I apologize for the delay Crowtooth! We had a successful hunt." He mewed, looking over his shoulder and casting a proud smile at his apprentice. "Sneezepaw has good instincts. This was his first time hunting and he caught two prey!" He purred. Turning his deep amber gaze back to his deputy, he dipped his head again. "Would you like us to go ahead and add these to the pile now?"
Sneezepaw followed their mentor back to camp with a cheerful skip in their step, carrying their own prey in their jaw. Not bad for their first try, right? Not bad...
So the apprentice came with their mentor to Crowtooth. When Rabbitfur complimented their instincts, Sneezepaw opened their mouth to give affirmation, only to nearly drop the prey they were holding. Oops, forgot about those for a heartbeat. In any case, they elected to nod enthusiastically instead as they went to place their prey alongside their mentor's.

“Ugh.”
This is for your twistpaw
Ashcloud slowly swayed his tail as he saw the two other cats come over. This was a shorter warrior, were they a newly made warrior? He really wished he paid attention to meetings more often but there was so many names... "Let's go." Ashcloud said in a curt manner before heading towards windy hills. The warning from Twilightstar rung deep in his mind. Hawks and vultures. He wondered how they tasted but knew he would never get one unless it was already crowfood.
