Quietpaw was slightly startled by the question. Nobody had really asked him that since Alder had arrived. They probably just assumed that he was fine with it. He didn't trust cats easily, so he didn't have an exact answer yet. Before answering, he took a long, deep breath. "Alder is a valuable cat to have," he started, "He is good at his job." He hadn't really answered the question. He padded back over to Floodpaw with a small bunch of cobweb. Carefully, he applied it to where the shell piece had been. "Go easy for the rest of the day. I don't want it getting infected." Floodpaw didn’t seem to focus much on the medicine cat’s words about his paw. Rather, the tom eyed Quietpaw curiously, eyes narrowing with thought before he spoke suddenly once more. “Any cat can be good at a job. But not everyone can be good at working a job with other cats. I’m worried. It’s like… a curse. Being a Riverclan medicine cat. One after another, changing or gone. Don’t let it be you, Quietpaw.” He admitted, blunt and oddly serious. |

”Oh? Well, if it’s getting to be too much, I’m sure they could give you some advice.” Snowflower blinked at him. “They probably know just how you’re feeling.” (Sorry! Missed this!) Iciclestep suddenly seemed a bit hesitant, his gruff persona softening to his actual age as he mewed lightly. “All they’ve been through, I don’t think they’d have much time to talk about my worries. Which, I don’t blame them. It seems trivial.” He glanced away lightly. “Sometimes it’s odd. I call Earthstar grandfather, he’d let me go into his den anytime I like, I can be casual with him yet… I respect him so much as my leader that sometimes it’s weird to see him as kin instead of just leader.” She nodded thoughtfully. “I wonder if he feels like same way. Like, if he sees you as a valuable warrior and also forgets you’re kin. Still, I’m sure if it came down to it, that relationship would win out.” She crossed her tail over his in a sweet gesture. “Of course, you can always come to me. I’ll listen to your worries any time.” She yawned. “Except, maybe not right now. I think my paws are about to fall off - I’m so tired.” |

He gave her a small smile of gratitude, a gentleness he found himself only reserving for her. “It’s okay. I know I can come to you. And you, you can come to me too.” He gave a gruff snort of laughter before rolling his eyes teasingly. “You do look ready to fall over on your paws. Let’s get you to the Warrior’s Den then.” |

(Earth and Alder will go to the Moonstone and get ambushed by Prey Maulers. Since they only know they're roaming Clan territories, they won't know they've taken over. Earthstar will lose a life, but Alder will save him from losing another, further proving Earth's trust in him) "I look forward to it. A nice meal, a new medicine cat, and perhaps a trip to Sunningrocks... it's rare to look ahead to such peace." Earthstar remarked, waving his tail in farewell to Diamondheart. He brushed through the reeds and out of camp, making sure Alder was following behind. Alder followed behind Earthstar with a surge of hope in his heart. Soon, he’d have a medicine cat name and an official place in the clan, if all went well. His orange ear flicked as it brushed past the camp’s reed wall. Heading deeper into the territory, he glanced around at the now-familiar sights with a sense of comfort coming over him. They passed a few places he’d collected herbs from, and made a mental note on the state of how the plants were growing. He was quiet, but it was a comfortable quiet. @frozen just bumping! |

Circling her nest once, Snowflower settled onto the soft bedding and blinked sleepily at him once, happy that he was the last thing she saw before falling into dreams. ( and -end scene- lol) |

(Thanks Mint! I was thinking about how this is going to play out and if Earthstar is going to lose a life to the Prey Maulers, I'm not sure if Alder will be able to actually get his name unless they manage to get rid of them long enough to communicate with the Moonstone. Since we currently have the plot that the Moonstone is blocked by them, it sort of puts a wrench in the original plan. Thoughts?)
Earthstar fell into the comfortable silence as the two continued through RiverClan territory. He had a lot on his mind, and it was a relief to him that the other tom didn't feel the need to fill the silence with awkward small talk. "Have you encountered the other Clans yet, Alder?" Earthstar mewed after a moment. "It will be a relief to introduce you to their respective medicine cats after this is all over."

Quietpaw sighed. He'd never expected anybody to actually worry about a medicine cat. Floodpaw was right though. Being a RiverClan medicine cat was kind of like a curse. His mentor had disappeared, would he be next? He shook his head to clear away the thought. "I can assure you, I have no intentions of disappearing." After another long moment of staring at the medicine cat apprentice, Floodpaw seemed to suddenly relax back into his stoic persona, his voice barely rising above his breath as he nodded once. “Good. Riverclan needs you.” That seemed to be that, the light-spoken tom carefully limping his way out of the den to make sure he didn’t disturb his treated paw. |

(Making some starters:)
Ivoryrain sat in camp, rather board. She glanced around, looking for some cat, any cat, to go hunting or patroling with. Stretching and getting off the rock she had been sitting on she chuckled at the racket coming from the nursery, remembering the kit that had been found not too long ago, Shortkit? No, that wasn't it, Smallkit, spotting her sister, Softflight, coming out of the warriors den, Ivoryrain walked over, "Wanna go hunting or something, sitting around camp doing nothing is extreamly boring."
Softflight blinked as her sister came up to her she nodded and mewed, "We should find someone else though, two cats on a patrol isn't much, esspecially with those preymaulers around, if we run into them," "Ok, what about Ebonywing?" Ivoryrain asked, but Softflight was shaking her head, "He's not here right now, remember? Ebonywing is on a boarder patrol or something, I know you don't like other cats but come on, pleasssse?" Softflight saw her sister roll her eyes and sigh in defeat, Softflight quickly looked around camp, trying to spot a cat that didn't look busy.
"No!" Smallkit shouted, "You must get ten shells, otherwise your banished froms RiverClan!" she giggled at Rosekit's exasperation and then looked at Finkit for confirmation, "If he gets ten then we'll let him stay, mayyyyybbee," She added the last part in a whisper so only Finkit could hear.

“I’ll join you.” Fluffcloud mewed as she slowly approached the two sisters. She had noticed their back and forth, and could only assume that they were stuck on who to go on patrol with. Deep down though, Fluffcloud wanted to see if they would be willing to see her point of view on how the Clans should change, and possibly assist in her and Eelshock’s secret deliveries of prey to the other Clans.
Rosekit gave a long huff, before he lifted his tail and decided. “Fine. I’ll find 10. I’ll even find 11 if you want, just cause I can!” He stuck his tongue out at Smallkit and Finkit before he scampered off to go investigate the nursery for stray shells.

“That was great!” Darkpelt congratulated Lilacpaw. He grabbed an end of the large trout and helped her heave it onto the bank. “This catch will feed the whole elders den.” He said approvingly. “Yes, I think hunting downstream and underwater suits you best. I mean, look what it got you!” Lilacpaw seemed to shuffle a bit under the tom’s praise, her eyes flickering with contentment as she mewed. “You really think so? Well, thank you for the suggestion. It did help alot.” She gave him an appraising look and added. “You’d make for a great mentor, you know.” Darkpelt nodded, letting the water drip from his thick fur. “I do think so, and not a problem. Also, thanks. Maybe I’ll get my first apprentice sometime soon.” |

They're just checking the border near sunningrocks  ) Coppersky flicked his ear as they approached the border, sniffing the air for any signs of other clans or threats. His shoulders relaxed as all he scented was the morning patrol who had passed by earlier. "I had a sister, she ran off though when we were young. Don't know what happened to her. I hope she's alright, but I have no way of knowing. She could be anywhere." Marshpaw scanned the riverside, keeping an eye out for Thunderclan in the bushes beyond. They were still a short distance away from Sunningrocks, but he wondered if they might be able to find any interesting prey there. A flick of water rose from the river as a fishtail disappeared into the depths. Marshpaw gasped at it, briefly distracted. “Did you see how high it jumped?” Coppersky had looked over just to see the last sliver of silver disappear into the water, he chuckled quietly. "I don't have your quick reflexes yet for fish. I'm still getting plenty of lessons. Have you caught many fish yet Marshpaw?" |

There’s alot more kits in the nursery now, sooner or later they’ll reach 6 moons.” Lilacpaw humored, moving to inspect the fish before she offered to carry it back for the older tom. |

Smallflight grinned at Fluffycloud, but saw Ivorywing roll her eyes, "Thanks, lets head near the ThunderClan and SkyClan boarder, I don't think I remember anyone hunting there for a while." She replied. Ivorywing rolled her eyes at Fluffycloud, earning herself a glare from Smallflight. Personally, she didn't know Fluffycloud very well, but she wasn't just going to go and assume said cat was better then all the others. |

Those are usually our most active borders anyway.” She invited either of them to lead the patrol, though she eyed them with thought and consideration. She wanted to see where their values lied. |

But I’m also super curious to know what his name is gonna be so I kinda want to come up with some other way for him to get his name xD) “Hm?” Alder turned to face the leader, shaking his head. “I haven’t. I’ve been to the borders but beyond catching the scent of another clan, I haven’t seen anyone.” But then, he smiled. “I’m looking forward to meeting the other medicine cats. I know my knowledge of herbs can’t be complete, so I’d love to hear more perspectives. From what I know, even though they’re from different clans, the other medicine cats tend to get along well, right?” |

That, or my shadow scares them away.” Marshpaw’s stature was large for his age, and though it was a helpful for fighting, he hadn’t exactly mastered the art of subtlety needed for fishing. Still, his training had been improving with his time with Brinetail. “What’s it like having lessons even though you’re a warrior? You don’t have a formal mentor, do you?” |

Softflight was rather annoyed Ivoryrain hadn't asked the whole group if anyone else wanted to lead, Softflight, personally, didn't want to lead, but it was still the respectful thing to do, "Ok then, lets head out." |

Flurrystripes glanced around the Clan. She was itching to get out of camp after spraining her paw. She took a deep breath in. The fresh air felt nice, but it would feel better if she was outside. Perhaps there were other warriors who'd like to hunt with her or at least go on a walk. The she-cat began to wander around camp at a slow pace, careful of her paw. [Open] |

The tom lumbered over to the border at sunning rocks, marking it quickly. "The border here looks good. We'll walk along the Thunderclan border for a bit and then go back to camp." |

At least, I’m sure Earthstar will talk to him about it… but, a part of me wonders why we would risk a battle when we have so much prey and comfort right now, even if we let Thunderclan have Sunningrocks, we’ll still be perfectly fine.” She flicked her tail with a light sigh. “It’s hard too, when some of my own kin are in Thunderclan.” She admitted, thinking of her uncle and cousin. |

Even if we could figure out something to do, theres only two of us." Ivoryrain led the way out of camp, flicking her ear to dismiss her sister and Fluffycloud's conversation into meer background noise. Listen to them, social cats, she could barely hold back a snort, I'll never understand my sister, what does she see in other cats? Their all nothing but full of themselves and greedy, all fighting over stupid land, when they could be actually help one another, not that I'd join in of course, I'm perfectly content hunting and fighting for my clan and family. |

Marshpaw cracked his jaws, scenting the air for any sign of intruders. Finding nothing, he continued along the riverside border. The water churned at they approached the gorge border with Windclan, but there were still no signs of anything amiss. |

RiverClan desperately needs a medicine cat, so I think we can find a way for him to get his name!) Earthstar twitched his whiskers as he thought of each Clan's medicine cats. "Sometimes, yes," he answered. "From prickly to friendly, they are all extremely dedicated to their position. There's much to learn from what they have experienced. In particular, Peachdapple of ThunderClan, Snowdance of ShadowClan, and Lavendersky of SkyClan have seen many moons of service." he explained. "And that's not even considering those who have joined StarClan and communicate with us through dreams and the Moonstone." |

Their all nothing but full of themselves and greedy, all fighting over stupid land, when they could be actually help one another, not that I'd join in of course, I'm perfectly content hunting and fighting for my clan and family.“I have a feeling more cats than you think would prefer working with one another instead of against one another.” Fluffcloud mewed evenly, her ear twitching as she continued. “All these dangers, the Fire, the battles for Sunningrocks, the floods and blizzards, all it’s shown me is that cats needlessly suffer when we turn our backs on them just for being in another Clan… Thunderclan and Shadowclan lost well over a dozen Clanmates each, in one day. And both are struggling so much more than we are. I don’t feel like an honorable Warrior knowing their kits could starve while we have prey overflowing in our pile, you know?” She sighed softly. |

Softflight nodded grimmly as this topic was brought to her attention, "I've never really thought about it that way, but yeah, it must be hard for you, with some of your family in ThunderClan, but, well, what can we do about it," Softflight paused for a moment, then added with a half sigh, "We're only warriors, and theres so many in the clan, whats the point? Even if we could figure out something to do, theres only two of us." Ivoryrain led the way out of camp, flicking her ear to dismiss her sister and Fluffycloud's conversation into meer background noise.

She stared down at the dirt as they walked farther from camp, "Like I said," Softflight mewed, "What can we do," She looked back up at Fluffycloud, "Give them prey? Surely thats against the code in some sort of way, and if somecat were to find out what we were doing, what would happen?" (Ngl kinda chuckling at my girl here talking about 'obeying the code' when I straight up know she's about to break around 5,000 laws in the future.) |

(Ngl kinda chuckling at my girl here talking about 'obeying the code' when I straight up know she's about to break around 5,000 laws in the future.) Fluffcloud seemed to respond with the smallest of smiles, before she mused. “The Code also states that we must care for any kit, no matter the Clan. One could argue that sharing resources does just that. Sharing prey… tell me, do you think you could be capable of doing that, even if the Code tells you otherwise? I’m not saying anything should or shouldn’t happen, but. What is your thoughts on it?” She asked lightly, not wanting to tell her yet that her suggestion was exactly what she and Eelshock had been doing the past moon. |

She mewed, looking back down again, "I want to help, I really do," but something is holding me back her mind continued, Guilt? But how could it be guilt if I haven't even done anyhting yet.. |

Pushing was never as successful as simply getting the thought to catch in the head. She flicked her tail. “We still have our own Clanmates to care for, always. I guess I just have all these thoughts, and it’s nice sometimes to just talk about them, even if they’re just that. Thoughts.” She gave a small chuckle. “Surely even the Warrior Code can be improved, after Shadowclan banished their own Medicine Cat. How can they possibly fare leafbare without a second medicine cat, or think Snowdance has all that time to train a new apprentice?” She mused. |
