((Night Moon!))
Stormfury twitched his whiskers. "Though I'm sure it'd be a relief to have me out of your paws." He only paused slightly before continuing on. "Our borders are strong. No doubt the other clans will test you as a leader, and no doubt you'll make mistakes. Everyone does. That doesn't mean you can sit and get down on yourself though, you need to get up and get over it. If you spend all day moping about a missed catch, you might miss the rabbit..or frog, right under your nose."

"Well, yeah. I thought so." Smokestorm shrugged and looked back at her. "I don't think I'd go so far as to say that sleeping all the time makes me happy, there's just nothing else I'd rather do. Cats here are always on each other and so full of their pride that I just get sick of it." Snakesong gave a small nod. “Yeah...I agree. All the quarrels and such make me anxious often. I’d rather be doing this and be here talking to you than to sit and listen to clanmates argue...”

"Yes, having you out of the Clan would surely make part of my life easier." Cedarstorm flattened his ears at Stormfury, a defensiveness rising in him. "But, like it or not, Northstar made you a clanmate, so that means you get protected like all the other members of this Clan. I didn't come here to get lectured by you. Northstar is still very much alive and there is a chance that I might not even be her successor." Cedarstorm stood up. "Don't talk to me about missed frogs when all you did was miss frogs the first few days you got here."
Smokestorm blinked at her. "Surely, there are more intriguing--if not kinder cats to talk to rather than me."

You’re just, you don’t make me feel as awkward, when I talk to you. Uhm, it’s just hard to, sometimes, to make friends.”

"Hey, I can respect that." Smokestorm shrugged. "There are a lot of grouchy and self-righteous cats in this Clan."

"Hey, I can respect that." Smokestorm shrugged. "There are a lot of grouchy and self-righteous cats in this Clan." “You’re just lazy.” Snakesong mewed, only to give a small peal of gentle joking laughter. “Ah...I’m joking, I promise. I know you’re hardworking when you need to be.”

Smokestorm twitched his whiskers in amusement. "Thanks, Snakesong. You're not so bad yourself."

Smokestorm twitched his whiskers in amusement. "Thanks, Snakesong. You're not so bad yourself." Snakesong felt her fur warm, and she averted her eyes with a small breath of gratitude and shyness. “Oh, uhm, thanks. I’m uh...it’s not that I’m scared to talk to other cats, I’m just, I know I look messy and a bit funny, and I just don’t want to-to say the wrong things, is all. I’m actually a pretty good fighter...”

Stormfury twitched his ears, surprised by the change in mood. He stood as well. "That's fair. I still have much to learn. Perhaps I'll go speak to your father now." He said, gesturing towards the elders den.

"I don't think you look funny." Smokestorm mewed calmly. "I mean, Kinkfire has fur like yours and I've never heard you say the wrong thing before, Snakesong."
"That's a good idea." Cedarstorm gave the tom a narrowed look before turning to pad off.
Closesky cleaned his pelt outside the elder's den.

Cedarstorm gave the tom a narrowed look before turning to pad off. Closesky cleaned his pelt outside the elder's den. Snakesong looked at Smokestorm fully now. Her eyes shone a pale blue-green, though she quickly pulled her tooth back from where it poked out. She gave a shy chuckle. “I, er...Thanks, I...it’s not you or anyone else. It’s me, really. Sometimes I feel...I feel like a stranger, in my own skin. I’m proud of what I can do b-but, uhm...” She wasn’t sure how to explain it.

Stormfury sighed. Things had been going so well, what happened? He padded over towards the elders den, not sure how to start the conversation. Padding up to Closesky, he sat down, wrapping his tail around his paws. "I'd like to talk to you." He began, "If that's alright with you of course."

"It isn't like I have anything better to do." Closesky didn't once pause from his cleaning. "What's on your mind?"

Stormfury nodded and continued on. "Cedarstorm recommended I come talk to you. I haven't been learning as quickly as I should be, your reputation as a great mentor precedes you. I would be honored if you could help me learn." He dipped his head in respect.

Smokestorm tilted his head in confusion. "I don't think I understand..." “It’s like...I’m whole, but...but I’m put together in pieces. And some of the pieces don’t fit together well. They’re held together, but they jab and bump in strange shapes... I want to feel whole. But uhm...” It was hard for the she-cat to admit what she always felt. Brittlefoot understood, he had always felt the same. “I should be proud of what I look like but..but alot of times I don’t like what I see.”

Closesky flicked his ear, looking right at Stormfury with a blunt and curious look on his face. "Cedarstorm recommended you talk to me?"
Smokestorm's brow furrowed in his confusion. "You look pretty whole to me, Snakesong."

"You look pretty whole to me, Snakesong." “I wish I felt that way.” Snakesong admitted. She curled her kinked tail lightly, mewing. “We were born early. It was hard to walk, but Brittlefoot...he’d be in so much pain, trying to get his legs to carry him. I’d always feel my teeth poking my muzzle and I just...I felt like I was born missing something.” She shook her head. “It’s a stupid feeling. I hate feeling it...Because I hate feeling any kind of pity.”

Stormfury nodded, his tail tip flicking. “He thinks I’m terribly far behind trying to acclamate to ShadowClan. Cherryvine and Cloudscar have been teaching me, but not to the speed Cedarstorm would prefer.” His whiskers twitched in amusement. “He thinks you might be a better teacher.”

"I don't pity you." Smokestorm shrugged easily. "So you were born early, doesn't mean you're not exactly the way you were meant to be."

"I don't pity you." Smokestorm shrugged easily. "So you were born early, doesn't mean you're not exactly the way you were meant to be." Snakesong looked at him with a faint thrum of gratitude. Nothing had hurt her more than the days when her mother had looked at her and her brother with pity. It had made her feel like something was wrong with her. And if there was, it was if it was something that could never be good. “That means alot to me.” She mewed faintly, voice creaking.

Smokestorm smirked lightly at her. "Hey, no problem, Snakesong." Snakesong shuffled her paws lightly, offering. “If you uhm...if you want something to do, we could do some sparring together...”

Darkrose spotted movement in the undergrowth nearby. She flicked her tail towards it. Shortcloud nodded, spotting a mouse darting through the foliage. She slunk downwards, ready to strike. She watched as she hunted the mouse.
