long walks on the beach [ wisteriawren tour! ]

DUSKLION
she/her | riverclan deputy | 28 moons

For the first time in awhile, the deputy felt a sense of calmness. It was rare she had moments like these; standing on the shoreline gazing out at the water. Lately her nose had been to the ground hard at work preparing the Clan for war. Training, territory patrolling, evacuation drills... she wouldn't trade her position for the world and would never complain, but getting moments like these made her washed with relief.

And... having a pretty she-cat like the one beside her to share them with wasn't half-bad either.

With a grin that showed just how happy Dusklion was - perhaps a rare sight these days - she turned to look over at her companion. The way the golden sunlight reflected in her blue eyes, turning them into shimmering pools, was a sight that made the deputy's stomach feel all fuzzy and warm. "'Course. It's a great place to come to just... unwind. Not much huntin' you can do here, unless you wanna try your luck with the crabs on the beach."

Turning Dusk gestured with her tail for Wisty to follow her down the shoreline. She figured they'd walk all the way to one end, where it lead into Seastones, before doubling back and visiting Haven Springs. "There's a lot of history along this shore - cats that were trained here. Numerous patrols. Apprentices, warriors, deputies, leaders... they would all flock here. Some for their duties, others... because of the call of the waves sometimes is too strong to ignore." Leaping over a bit of driftwood the deputy turned to grin at Wisty. "RiverClan's legacy. 'N now you're apart of it. It's somethin' no cat can take away from you, 'n somethin' you can be proud of for the rest of your life." Tilting her head curiously as they walked, she added, "How've things been since joinin'? Everyone treatin' you well?"
