Crookedkit let out a surprise squeak and was tackled by her. "Silentkit!"

Ottermask and Frostlake were at the edge of camp by the river's edge. Frostlake's face held a grim expression as she watched Ottermask test the ice that formed at the edge of the river. Her ears fell back when it didn't break under the pressing weight of his paw.

Diamondheart had moved to find Ottermask, only to blink and see him and Frostlake testing the frozen banks. The deputy approached, voice heavy with dissapointment. "It's starting to freeze faster than we predicted..."

"We were hoping we could break it up." Frostlake continued to watch Ottermask, the tom was carefully applying the weight of his front two paws on the water.
Ottermask shook his head. "It won't budge. I'm worried the younger cats will try to play on it but end up finding a weak spot." he looked back at Diamondheart. "We need to warn Earthstar and the rest of the Clan."

"Hm. Perhaps we can bring our largest warriors out to try again, but you are correct, Ottermask." Diamondheart nodded, suddenly thinking of his daughters falling through ice and-
He swallowed, heart clenching at the idea, and he nodded swiftly.

"Just in case they can't break it, we will have to find other places to catch prey." Frostlake flicked her ear. Ottermask stepped off the ice. "I know with this cold, we shouldn't risk injury, but we may need to consider taking Sunningrocks back from ThunderClan."
Ottermask snorted in agreement. "In their luscious territory, I'm sure ThunderClan has prey to spare."

Diamondheart gave a thoughtful nod, though his eyes were flashed with reluctance. "I do agree. Thunderclan has kept Sunningrocks for too long...but we must also prepare for a harsh leafbare before we make any decisions. The cold will force for heavy camp construction. But I will certainly be sure to ask Earthstar what our best course of action will be."

Ottermask nodded. "We'll do what we can in the meantime."

"Thank you, Ottermask, Frostlake." Diamondheart smiled, his head dipping to both of them in appreciation. "I sent a hunting patrol out recently, so we can take care of some camp building things if you two don't mind." He offered.

Frostlake shook her head. "We don't mind at all." She took a step toward camp. "My grandfather use to say that work warms the body anyway."

Hey Moon! How's it been?)
Earthstar stared up at the gray clouds hovering above camp, flicking an ear. Leafbare would not be kind this season...
Shellstream was helping Troutfang repair a hole in the warrior's den.
Icepath was looking through the fresh-kill pile, disappointed with how small it was.
Salmonkit and Koikit were practicing battle moves, nearly old enough to be apprentices.

(Pretty good, I can't complain)
Eelpaw has his ears back from where he stood by the reeds. The water was frozen, so couldn't chase the minnows like he liked too.

Icepath hurried out of camp to try and catch something, but she stopped at the sight of Eelpaw. "What are you doing?" she questioned, padding over to him. "It looks like the cold finally got to the river." she flattened her ears.

Eelpaw looked at her in disappointment. "And chased all the minnows away."

"Wise words." Diamondheart purred gently, following after the older she-cat. "I should start saying more things like that." He hummed.

"It's such a shame." Icepath stared at the ice. "We could really use some minnows for the queens."

Ottermask chuckled and followed after Diamondheart, Frostlake right beside him. "Our grandfather just had the habit of stating the truth and everyone just called him wise."
"It was my way to train." Eelpaw looked up at Icepath. "I would chase the minnows to get faster in the water."

(Ayyy Frozen I made some new Riverclan cats on the joining page, didn't know if you saw em or not!)
"Those who speak truth are already wiser than those who do not." Diamondheart offered, giving his own little chuckle in response to his best friend. He nudged Ottermask lightly and mewed. "I see you've been talking to Smogstorm a lot. That's good. I've never seen her speak so much before." He smiled.

(It was Smogstorm that we planned on for a pairing right? I don't remember xD)
Ottermask shrugged lightly. "She looked like she could use some company. I know leafbare is probably really hard on her too."

(Yep ) "She's stronger than many cats I know. But company from you is always great. Although I may be biased." Diamondheart teased, eyes flashing with comradery as he looked at Ottermask. The camp walls grew closer, but the deputy was enjoying the talk with the half-siblings.

Already added them to the front page)
"That's a pretty good way to train." Icepath commented. "Did you learn it on your own?"

Frostlake shook her head, her whiskers twitching in amusement. "Careful, Diamondheart, the rest of the CLan might not appreciate you playing favoritism."
Ottermask glanced back at his sister, but spoke to Diamondheart. "I'll try to visit her later. Someone needs to make sure she's not passing off all her prey to the nursery."

"Oh, you're right. Ottermask will have to be demoted from best friend to clanmate." Diamondheart chuckled playfully, before he nodded to Ottermask with a soft grin. "Good thinking."
Finally back into the camp, Diamondheart was aware of the small holes and fix-ups he could see in the dens. He mewed. "Nursery is priority. We'll start there. I already see Troutfang and Shellstream working on the warrior's den." He nodded with approval.

"I think 'brother' will do just fine." Ottermask shook his head in amusement. "I saw some brambles on the way back." He studied the holes in the nursery. "I can bring them back to start working."

"Sounds like a good plan, brother." Diamondheart smiled, finding a sense of comfort in being able to say that word when he was so far away from Hornetstrike. Ottermask meant just as much to him in that sense. The deputy continued. "I'll start weaving some reeds into the small holes." He moved to shuffle through the vast patches of reeds surrounding camp.

"I'll see if Runningpaw has any extra moss." Frostlake nodded to the deputy before moving off. Ottermask disappeared through the camp entrance to go fetch the brambles.

Diamondheart pulled the reeds back to the nursery, a purr in this throat as he saw the tufts of brown and white fur of his mate and kits. Shaking his head, he regained focus. He had to keep the nursery as warm as he could, for them and the other queens and kits.

It wasn't much, but Frostlake did get some moss from Runningpaw, she carried it to the nursery to split it among the queens inside.
