OOC: Rp: Lizardfangtuyrned his head to the brown tom, "Sure, why not?" He plopped down next to him and started to strike up a conversation. "So, heard any good gossip lately?" he chuckled.

Finchthroat let out an amused purr as Lizardfang layed down, pushing his robin over with a paw so it sat between the toms after taking a bite. "Aren't we getting a little too old to charter like the apprentices?" He teased, mouth full of feathers. "That being said... I haven't heard anything good lately, but I would love to. Things have been much too quiet around here lately."

Nightface smiled at Briarberry in greeting. "Ah, yeah. Just feeling a little restless, you know? Was hoping maybe to go for a walk or a hunt or something of the sort, but it seems my legs are telling me otherwise." She licked a paw and ran it over her black muzzle quickly.
Littlestep finally hoisted himself out of his nest. He meandered out of the den, taking his own sweet time. He glanced around, looking for his demanding apprentice.

OOC: Rp: Briarberry smiled, "Well, you know you're always welcome here, StarClan knows I could use the company stuck in this den all hours of the day"
"Isn't it always quiet? I almost hope we'd get attacked by rogues just for something to do," Lizardfang jested, "Almost". He crossed his paws and stretched his neck to relieve his morning stiffness.

Finchthroat rolled his yellow eyes, picking a stray feather out of his teeth. "Careful what you wish for there," He taunted. "Karma may come back to you for that one."

The gray molly purred in amusement. "I second that, especially on the sore days. It can get pretty tiresome with only the other elders for company while you're waiting for a storm to pass. Of course, its no fault of theirs, it can just be hard to relate when they've lived far more moons than you." She crouched down, tucking her paws under her. "Well, I'd be more than happy to keep you company in exchange for something for my aching legs," she chirped with a purr.

Darkfall considered this. "Hmm... the meadow, perhaps? I'll take down a couple of birds nearby and we can find some fat little voles in the meadow." Frondstar was coming down from his den and she alerted him of their plan to hunt.
Blackpaw was immediately upon Littlestep. "They invited us hunting," he gestured at Darkfall and Beetlenose. "Wanna go?"

OOC: Rp: Lizardfang scoffed, "Even StarClan couldn't make something like that happen, it'll always be quite and tranquil around here." He sighed. "I guess we're lucky though, it's much more important whenerv something does happen."

lizardfang and finchthroat doing some major foreshadowing here LOL as of right now my plot ideas involve the rain turning into a big storm that floods the stream and downs a tree, possibly in the camp. does anyone have any ideas that could tie in with that?))

"Probably should..." Littlestep said. He blinked, adjusting his eyes to the dull shine of the morning. "You need to practice your hunting crouch anyway. You're still sloppy with it," he mewed, matter-of-factly.

"How do you like the nursery?" Thistlemist mewed after setting the mouse down. ((I have no idea how long lilystep's been in the nursery/when her litter is due))
Blackpaw rolled his eyes. "Jealousy doesn't look good on you, shorty," he retorted, dropping into his crouch. His tail twitched, loudly nudging a leaf. "I'm built for fighting, anyway," he amended.

OOC: It might be interesting to have some sort of coop/rebellion after the flood while the clan's rebuilding? Maybe cats start to doubt Frondstar's leadership? I also imagine a death of a cat during the storm when no one saw it would be interesting. Rp: Briarberry smirked, "Imagine trying to relate to a cat that's barely seen their first Leaf-Bare. Burrpaw works hard but she's a real pain to talk to sometimes." She paused, remembering Nightface's request. "Oh, I'll mix something up for those joints of yours, I've got more than enough since I collected at the start of New-leaf." At times like this Briarberry was glad to have such an organized den. She reached into the regular shelves for juniper and ragwort and pushed two small portions over to Nightface. "Here, this should help with your pain."

{ If there's a rebellion like that id think itd be neat...i have some ideas of how my characters would react to such a thing }
Nightface sniffed the herbs quickly before gingerly chewing on them. She'd finished the portion of ragwort, but was a little puzzled by the juniper. "Is this a traveling herb?" she asked, lapping one up. "I feel like I recognize it."
Littlestep rolled his eyes at his apprentice's remarks. "Fighting doesn't get you far when you're half starved. Speaking of it, go get something to eat if you haven't. Whatever you catch goes to the elders today." He flicked his tail and headed off to join Darkfall and Beetlenose.

Ohhh, that could be interesting if we get enough cats on board with the mutiny. Hopefully we can get some new members soon. If anyone else is interested in this idea perhaps there could be a cat who is already unhappy with Frondstar that riles the others up later. maybe the stream floods during the storm and Frondstar refuses to evacuate camp, or something? I could see Darkfall doubting Frondstar if there was an avoidable death))

Blackpaw straightened up and padded over to the fresh-kill pile, selecting a smallish mouse. He ate it as quickly as he could, practically wolfing the thing down. Darkfall nodded a greeting to Littlestep. "How do you feel about hunting in the meadow?" She mewed.

OOC: I could totally see Lizardfang being very interested in a rebellion since he has so much to prove, and he is a bit of a ringleader. Rp: "Ah, the juniper berries, those are a little new I just found a bush of them a couple of days ago and I couldn't resist bringing them back. They're pretty bitter but they should help your sleep once you settle down tonight," Briarberry explained as reorganized her stores.

{ I feel like, okay whole backstory for nightface now maybe, i think she'd be interested in a rebellion because maybe frondstar pressured her to retire early because of her joint problems? or maybe she just felt pressured to in general. maybe she feels she was denied a chance but didn't have the backup to fight the pressure. idk }
She crinkled her nose at the taste, giving a nod. After she'd swallowed, she noted the obvious, trying to make casual conversation. "You keep it very organized in here. Must be easy to teach Burrpaw everything when its so neat, aye?"
Littlestep nodded back to Darkfall. "Sounds like a plan to me. Anyone got a guess how the prey might be running this morning?"

OOC: Rp: Briarberry snickered, "If anything it makes teaching harder. It seems everyday she's misplacing something new, and sure it doesn't look disorganized, but to me it's a nightmare." Briarberry paused and realized how harsh she might be sounding. She must think I'm a terrible mentor, complaining about me apprentice all the time.

Blueberrypaw -- tom -- 10 moons -- Blueberrypaw is a small, cream cat with blue points and deep, dark blue eyes. In relation to other members of the clan, Blueberrypaw is rather short, although he swears that he's still waiting for his growth spurt to hit. Always the optimist and extremely bubbly, Blueberrypaw constantly feels the need to cheer up and encourage his friends. He exudes a sort of innocent aura, and can be rather naive at times. However, Blueberrypaw's most notable trait is that he lies all the time, even if he doesn't have to- either as a joke, an excuse, a way to make someone feel better, or even a way to get back at someone for a wrong they've done him. -- kiwi cheesecake
Foxfoot -- tom -- 27 moons -- Foxfoot is a brown tabby tom with bright green eyes. His front left paw is completely white, as well as his belly and ear tips. Foxfoot is a gentle and considerate cat who is generally regarded as intelligent and kind. However, he has little to no social skills, often speaking in halting or hesitant sentences. Thus, he prefers to keep more to himself most of the time. However, if he feels strongly about something, he quickly throws all his shyness out the window and will fight until his point is recognized, even if that point doesn’t make sense to other cats. -- kiwi cheesecake
Owlscar -- she-cat -- 49 moons -- Owlscar is a pale, dusty fawn tabby with white paws and long legs. She only has one working brown eye- the other has a thick white scar crossing it that she received in a fight years ago. Owlscar is bright and peppy, but also can be hot-headed and impulsive. She has a constant burning energy inside, and it always needs to escape, be it by social interaction or swift runs throughout the territory. If this energy isn't worked off, she'll become increasingly restless, and begin to ignore even good advice from friends. She can work herself up into quite an ugly mood, but as soon as she's able to work it off, she's back to her normal, sunny self. -- kiwi cheesecake

(I don't really know that either...oops) Lilystep tilted her head. "It's different than the warriors' den. It's a lot more comforting, welcoming. My nest in the warriors' den was only there for nights really. The one in the nursery is more for everyday use."

love the characters drea! I'll add them asap. and oatmouse I'd be on board with frondstar having exerted pressure on nightface to retire. he means well for his clan but he's super stubborn and only really listens to owlscar, briarberry and maybe badgerclaw as an older warrior. once he thinks he's made the correct decision it's impossible to budge his position. this stubbornness leading to a sort of mutiny sounds very exciting! I can't wait to see how cats side haha))
Darkfall shook her head. "I haven't been out yet, but I'd guess the prey is like us, out looking for food before the rain." Blackpaw padded up, having finished his breakfast. "Are we gonna go already? At this rate I'll be having my warrior ceremony before we catch a single mouse."
Thistlemist nodded. "That's good to hear. I feel like I've been cooped up in there for ages." She tilted her head towards the apprentice's den. "Don't forget to bug those nuisances if your bed starts to feel flat or spiky. They're always slacking off."

Littlestep rolled his eyes at his apprentice. "You need to learn some patience, Blackpaw. Your's is worse than that crouch I was telling you about." Shaking his head, he looked toward the other warriors. "Are we ready?" he asked, trying to ask instead of demand like his apprentice had.
Nightface laughed. "Apprentices are a handful it seems. Especially these past few moons'. Everyone practically clawing up their ears over them." She flicked her tail tip and paused in thought, then mewed, "I say just give them some time. They're nothing more than overgrown kits at this point anyway."

Darkfall nodded in affirmation and moved to take the lead, but Blackpaw was already past her and out the entrance. She shook her head as the fronds rustled behind him. "You weren't kidding about the patience thing, Littlestep. He'll soon learn that over-eagerness doesn't build the fresh-kill pile." She slipped out of camp behind the apprentice.
Thistlemist smirked. "Its hard to comprehend how quickly they go from kits to warriors. I imagine we'll be having some name ceremonies before we know it."
Frondstar approached Briarberry and Nightface. "Good morning," he nodded to the warrior-turned-elder. His attention then turned to the medicine cat. "Briarberry, has Starclan given you any dreams or warnings about the coming storm? The stream flooded badly last year, but my dreams have been calm."
(it's near the end of spring in rp, so there's yearly storms that can last up to a week))

Nightface nodded to Frondstar, returning his greeting. She shifted her weight on her paws and sat quietly, allowing the leader to speak to his medicine cat. She'd hoped for a quiet storm this year too, but more so for it just to be over with so she could get out of camp again.
"I'll say," muttered Littlestep as he followed the patrol out of camp. He opened his mouth, tasting the humid air.

OOC: Rp: Briarberry turned to acknowledge Frondstar interruption. "Hmm, come to think of it I hadn't had a vision in a while." She furrowed her brow, trying to remember anything in her dreams she might've missed. "Though I'm sure you have nothing to worry about, if StarClan foresaw anything they would've shown me I'm sure."
