(It was Nettle and Rock XD) (Yup! I just remembered. I mix Dust and Rock up a bit, ehehe XD Ok, well, shall we rp?) Nettlefrost poked her head out from her tunnel, dragging a rabbit out with her. She was tunnling with Meadowbrook, who seemed rather quiet today.

(It's easy to do XD I do it too, mostly because I did at one point have a character named Rockdust!)
Rockfall was laying down in camp, stretching out his paws after a nap. Looking around, he sighed softly before rolling onto his paws and shaking his fur out, wondering why the camp had been rather boring lately. Was it because most days were peaceful? He didn't know, but he found himself more than a little bored most days.

Nettlefrost let Meadowbrook carry the rabbit into camp, which Meadowbrook had requested. Nettlefrost was curious about her friend, who had always been reserved but never so distant.
Meadowbrook padded away to move the rabbit while Nettlefrost looked around. Once she spotted Rockfall, she gave a small grin and felt her paws buzz with anticipation. Once again, she found herself scampering towards him.

Rockfall looked up at the sound of paws scampering on the ground. Spotting Nettlefrost, he purred softly, his whiskers twitching, "Hi Nettlefrost."

"Hello there, Rockbutt." Nettlefrost sneered playfully, nudging the moor-runner with strong shoulders. She looked up at the taller tom and mewed. "You look bored to tears." She admitted.

Rokfall ighed oftly, haking hi head at her, "Moue-brain, I didn't all you by any weird name." He rumbled, hi ear and tail drooped a bit, before miling and hukling oftly. "I am! I know we are in a time of peae, but peae an be kinda boring."
(UGH! Look at that train wreck up there! My S and my C keys don't work all the time, and it takes me forever to get them to work, so half the time my posts look like above.......Fixing them is so much of a pain though....So if my posts ever look something like above, I got annoyed and gave up trying to get the keys to work)
Rockfall sighed softly, shaking his head at her, "Mouse-brain, I didn't call you by any weird name." He rumbled, his ears and tail drooped a bit, before smiling and chuckling softly. "I am! I know we are in a time of peace, but peace can be kinda boring."

"Ah, you know I'm kidding, Rockfall. I like your name." Nettlefrost admitted with a humored aversion of her blue-green eyes, before she hummed to the bored tom. "We could always go on the moors and see what warriors we can spot. In fact, I think I wanna climb Outlook Rock." She decided strongly.

Dashclaw smiled again. "Thanks Grasslight," he mewed pressing against her. (I think this was the last post XD but time skip. Dashclaw get ready for fatherhood lol.) Grasslight was jittery as all, pacing wildly in circles near the medicine den, after she had finally gone to asses her sudden sick flashes and moods. She had guessed what was going on, but now knowing it made her antsy in both excitement and fear. She was young, and while she knew Dashclaw would be amazing, she feared her own immaturity would not fare well. She waited for her mate, sniffling and trying to push back her emotions.

(Wow this feels really quick xD)
Dashclaw was coughing as he followed Harewhisker out of a tunnel. The two of them getting stuck tunneling together. Harewhisker rolled his eyes. "Get over it, Dashclaw it wasn't that bad." "Wasn't-cough-that bad?" Dashclaw choked out as he frowned at his brother. "Harewhisker the whole tunnel could've collapsed!" "Not likely," Harewhisker replied flatly. "Birchstep and I have been working on it for weeks. It's not coming down easy." "Well part of it did." Dashclaw snorted as he shook the dirt from his pelt. Harewhisker rolled his eyes again. "Right, you know, when you're done acting like a kit, I'll be with Frostpetal."

Grasslight nearly burst in relief and fear seeing her mate walking with Harewhisker. She scrambled towards him, only to slow down and approach with nervous paws, looking both queasy and anxious. She mewed lightly. "D-Dashclaw?..."

Dashclaw looked up at Grasslight when she came over, but seeing her fear, he paused. "Grasslight, what's wrong?" he asked.

"See...I mean...you know how we've been mates for about a moon now?...and, well, very devout mates?" She gave an immature little giggle at that, before her fear kicked back in and she trembled in nerves. "Well, I mean, I was always told I'm alot like my mother, a-and I guess it means in this case too...I...er..."
She looked at him fleetingly. "I'm uhm...I'm pregnant..." She let it out finally.

At her fumbling Dashclaw found himself amused, but as soon as she said the word, he locked up. "What?"

"Y-yeah...I'm pregnant...you know, having kits? We have fun, now we bear the product? That kinda thing? Er...you're not upset, are you?" Grasslight asked weakly, dropping her gaze shamefully.

"N-no!" Dashclaw replied quickly, but he couldn't really move as his body was frozen in an anxious, almost fear from the news. He was going to be father? He couldn't be a father! He wasn't qualified to be a father! "Um..." his wide eyes looked away from her.

"Are uh...are you scared too?" Grasslight's usually bright and brave voice was reduced to a frightened whisper. She knew how her family worked. Rainfeather raised her kits alone. Hawkfury raised kits alone. Starclan, Hawkfury was raised by one parent. Would that continue? Don't even get her started on her youth and his personal turmoils. How could they do this?
She closed her eyes. "Ohhhh....What are we gonna do?" She whined with a high pitch.

"U-um..." Dashclaw flattened his ears and looked back at his mate. "I don't know..."

"Well! Maybe mother can help! Right? Rainfeather's had like, soo many kits. She's also very experienced...ahh..." Grasslight tried to offer, trying to find hope once more.

Dashclaw nodded, trying to smile. "You'll be a great mother, Grasslight," He mewed kindly. "I know it."

"W-well, not as good as you will be a father." Grasslight flushed under the praise, feeling her ears droop. "You're more experienced, a-and know tunnling and moor-running, a-and you're calmer. I'm crazy energetic! What if I step on them, o-or injure myself?" She begged.

Dashclaw shook his head. "No, Grasslight," he mewed gravely. "You'll be a fantastic mother because you're the most caring and loving cat I know. You'll know exactly what to do when the kits come, but me..." he sighed and looked away from her regretfully. "I don't know what its like to be a father. My father never approved of me."

Grasslight felt her heart ache at that, and she felt herself press up to him, finding strength in her voice as she mewed. "He loved you. Alot. You may not have followed in his footsteps, but I saw how much he called for you...and how he looked at you. It was the same way mother looked at me and Stonepath...the same way Hawkfury looked at mother and Beetleclaw even when they didn't do what he wanted...I...I think if you feel you didn't approve of you...that you're the kind of father who would approve of his kits no matter what. You approved of me, no matter how loud or uncontrolled I got...right?" She asked.

"I will always love you, Grasslight," Dashclaw told her, but their was sorrow in his eyes as he looked at her. "But I'm not sure I can be a father."

"Y-yes you can. You have to. I...I can't raise them alone..." Grasslight demanded, sounding even more fearful. Would he leave her for this? She couldn't let him. She begged. "We have to try, right? Think of how many of us didn't have fathers...would you let that happen?" She whimpered.

Dashclaw closed his eyes and sighed. He was so scared of becoming a father, of being a failure to kits, but he did love Grasslight. "I'll never abandon you," he mewed looking her in the eye, but he was still scared. "We'll raise these kits together...We'll....we'll help each other."

"Y-yes. We can. We're a good team. And, we both have good brothers, and my mother loves you, you know, so she'll help you out. Got two pretty good uncles too, b-but Beetleclaw can be stern sometimes, so they can pull Blacktail's tail instead." Grasslight rambled on, finding hope and relief in the fact that he wasn't going to leave her to do this alone. "W-we'll do good."

Dashclaw smiled softly as he listened to her, but in the back of his mind he was worried. He wasn't on the best of terms with Harewhisker these days. Would his brother even be happy for him?

"Should...we tell anyone yet?" Grasslight offered. Maybe telling the right cats could give them some assistance. Certainly Rainfeather should know, and she wanted Stonepath to know too. She looked at her mate, hoping he'd want his own brother to know too.

"Um..." Dashclaw flicked his ear in uncertainty. He wasn't sure he wanted to tell Harewhisker, but they were all bound to know sooner or later... "We should," he sighed. Great, he gained the clan's sour eye when he became a tunneler, now he was going to show them how terrified he was to be a father...
