[ Hey Ash! Hey Cat!
Oh my chickens xD They are doing fine, they don't really like these single-digit weather at all. Poor babies haven't left the coop since it snowed a couple of inches. ]

[ They really don't like the snow at all. I think it is because their feet are sensitive to the cold. It is getting cold here, last week it was in the 30-40's and now, it's 0-20's. It's going to be a cold week. xD
And yes, I celebrate christmas and I had a good time c: I love spending time with my family. ]

[ Oh man that's freezing D: I'm not good with the cold, although I love snow hahahaha It's hot over here at the moment, I think it'll reach like above 30 today (30 degrees Celcius, that is. Not sure what it is in Farenheit hahahaha)
That's good! Yeah I always love that about Christmas, it's such a family holiday^^ ]

Jaypaw padded along the fence, wrinkling his nose as his leg bumped against the pointed edges of the pickle fence. He wobbled from a moment before jumping down into the backyard. His sense of balance wasn't the best and he rather jump down now before he accidentally fell. He thought for a moment, swishing his tail. "I say we go farther into the twolegplace," the brown tabby meowed, padding towards the path beside the house. It wouldn't be any fun if they just stayed on the outskirts of the twolegplace.
Cherrysplash made a sympathetic sound. "I bet that was scary," she mused, flickering her tail. Her mentor had taught her how to swim when she first become an apprentice, she had enjoyed swimming ever since. "At least, you don't have to worry about that anymore," she meowed with a small smile. She flickered some water with her tail as she laid in the water.

Briarpaw stayed up on the fence for a little while longer, cautiously stepping along the pointed tops, wobbling slightly as she did so. It was a peculiar feeling, and her larger body wasn't accustomed to balancing on such a narrow edge. She soon grew bored of it though and jumped down to join Jaypaw, "Sure! she said enthusiastically, her tail twitching in excitement as she bounded to catch up with him, falling into step beside him, her eyes bright with excitement.
Cloudheart shrugged, laughing again, "It was at the time, yeah. I sort of just laugh at the memory now - I was so clumsy. he replied, his smile reaching his eyes as they glittered with amusement. He sighed with happiness as he slid into the deeper part of the water again, enjoying the feel of water running over his white fur, "That's true." he added, swimming around in a circle.

[ Oh yeah, I totally forgot about Celsius and don't worry, I don't know how it converts either lol. It is really cold outside, although at least I had a white Christmas! :D I really like spending time with my family. Thankfully, everyone lives in the same state. Like my dad's family lives 5 minutes within each other.
I hope you don't mind but I am going to get off tonight. I am really tired and I don't have much of muse as of now ._. I feel bad because my rp posts stink. I will see you later Ash! ]

[ Aaaah lucky, I've only ever had a white Christmas once, and that was when I was visiting the UK. Yeah the past few years my family and I have been living overseas, so we never were able to meet with our extended family for Christmas. This year we were all in Australia though so it was so much fun ^^
Yeah don't worry about it man, have a good sleep!! Your rp posts are fine hahaha, feel like we just need something to spice up things with Cloudheart and Cherrysplash See ya later! ]

Yellowpaw purred. "Yeah, I'm pretty tired, too. Otherwise I'm doing quite well, though. How is your training going?" She tilted her head to one side and blinked at him.

Nightpaw shrugged his shoulders, choosing to sit down next to Yellowpaw, "Fine, I guess." he replied, pausing to think for a second, "I was able to catch a couple birds the other day." he continued, a brief flash of pride glimmering in his eyes. He had been in a good mood that day and his mentor had him practising the positioning and aim of his pounces. They had instructed that he aim to land directly above the birds so that if they tried to fly away they had nowhere to go. He had picked it up rather easily and had managed to bring back two birds for the fresh-kill pile, "How about you?" he added, becoming slightly more engaged in their conversation, almost forgetting his fatigue.

Yellowpaw nodded, clearly impressed that he had been so successful. "Not too bad," she meowed. "I'm better at catching land prey than birds, honestly, but I think I'm doing pretty well. I even managed to beat Adderstrike in a mock battle when we were training yesterday," she purred proudly.

[ Happy New Year everyone!!!! Although I'm not sure if it's 2018 in America yet xD ]
Nightpaw's eyes widened in surprise, "That's impressive." he replied, respect clear in his voice, feeling that perhaps he had initially underestimated the pretty she-cat, "Adderstrike is one of our best warriors, I can't believe you beat him." he added, giving her a small smile.

Yellowpaw shuffled her paws shyly. "Well, I'm sure he was probably going easy on me since I'm smaller than him," she meowed modestly.

"Don't sell yourself short." Nightpaw replied, a brief smirk appearing on his face at his unintentional pun, "I'm sure you were great." he purred, nudging her shoulder as he smiled at her. Somehow, his fatigue had been forgotten, his bad mood having lightened to a more pleasant and friendly medium, his amber eyes bright and glowing in the sunlight.

Ashfeather nodded, immediately doing the same. At the distinct scent of a hare nearby, and the russle of leaves confirming it's location, she pointed her tail in the direction of the prey, "I'll go around to the other side of the hare," she said quietly, not wanting to alert the hare of their presence, "I'll chase it towards you; be ready." she added, not really giving him a choice in the matter. In all honesty, she didn't trust his white pelt to not give them away before they got into position. Slowly, she lowered herself and began to make a wide berth around the hare. Stormchaser dipped his head and swallowed his words. He couldn't stop a slight frown from forming. He often got the 'wait here' tasks when hunting with others. It was a bit disappointing, but he supposed it was better for the clan. He couldn't let pride get in the way of prey for the kits and elders, even if he thought he could do just a good job as anyone else. The white tom crouched down in the long grass. He unsheathed his claws and wiggled slightly. His ears flicked as he tried to listen for any sign of a chase. Now he felt like he had something to prove, or maybe he just wanted to impress a clanmate. Likely, it was both. Either way, Stormchaser wouldn't let this one get past his claws. He kneaded the ground as he silently waited.

Ashfeather slowly made her way to the other side of the hare, who seemed to be nimbling on some grass unaware of the danger around it. Its long ears were pricked up though, obviously listening for any signs of danger, so Ashfeather was sure to place her paws carefully and delicately, not wanting a snap of a branch or rustle of leaves to alert the rabbit to her presence. The rabbit sat in the middle of a small clearing, meaning she wouldn't have been able to creep up on it and simply pounce, the lack of vegetation not allowing her to do so; luckily she had decided to team up with Stormchaser in the end. Slowly, she silently crept forward. And when she felt the timing was right, she bunched up her hindlegs and pounced, landing well beyond the rabbit itself but startling the rabbit and causing it to flee, unknowingly running straight towards Stormchaser's general location.

Stormchaser's ears perked when he heard the rustling of grass. He wiggled, ready to pounce. The tom gasped when the rabbit suddenly change direction. The tom dashed forward. Thankfully, Ashfeather did a good job of driving it. The rabbit was in his claws in seconds. The landing snapped the critter's neck. He picked it up and started to pad toward the other warrior. "That was great." He grinned.

"Nice catch." Ashfeather replied cooly. Despite her cold tone, she was undoubtedly impressed by the tom's skills. When she had seen the rabbit suddenly change direction she had thought that Stormchaser would be thrown off and would let the prey go, but he had held his cool, "Next time we can switch it up a little; you can chase the prey towards me." she said equally as calmly, though her words showed her slight increase in trust in the tom cat's abilities.

Stormchaser blinked. The she-cat wasn't being nice, but she didn't have the cold tone to her voice. The tom let himself hope he had been accepted. The promise of a chase next time made his spirits soar. He set down the hare and scented the air. Sadly, there wasn't a strong hare scent anywhere but under his nose. The scent of blood lightly hung in the air. No doubt that and the noise was enough of a warning for anything to be hiding now. "Do you want to move into the forest?" He asked.

Ashfeather nodded, "Bury the hare here too. We can pick it up along with the squirrel we caught later." she replied, before padding towards the tree-line, only pausing to wait for him almost as an after-thought. Her ears were angled towards the forest to listen out for any signs of prey, and her mouth opened slightly to drink in all the scents in the forest. The scents of various different prey were faint, but definitely there - obviously, after hearing the noise of their hunt, their prey had scattered and hid within the forest.

Stormchaser took a minute to bury his prey then dashed after the she-cat. He slowed down to trot up next to the she-cat. He scented the air. The warrior frowned, scenting nothing but the earthy forest scent. Prey scent did surround them, but it was almost undetectable. "They are just deeper in the forest." He said, not directing his words towards any cat. He padded deeper into the forest, occasionally drinking in the scents of the forest. He caught the scrabbling of a squirrel and dropped to a crouch. Sadly, it was too late. He saw the bushy tail disappearing into the canopy. The tom straightened up and looked back, hoping Ashfeather was not behind him.

(Lol, timezones just in America are weird. It can be the New Year on the east coast, and the west coast can still have a few hours until then.) Yellowpaw purred and stared at her paws for a moment before looking up at Nightpaw. She flicked her tail happily when she realized that he was no longer in a bad mood as he had been when they first started talking. "Thanks," she purred.

[ Yeah that's super strange xD ] NIGHTPAW || Camp || 𝔯𝔞𝔟𝔟𝔦𝔱𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔰𝔱
"Why don't we go practise our battle moves on the beach?" Nightpaw suggested, feeling more energetic now and, for once, willing to train, "Who says we need our mentors to train?" he added with a smile, his eyes bright as he looked down at her. ASHFEATHER || The Forest || zero
Ashfeather's tail flicked in annoyance seeing the squirrel run off, wishing the tom would do something about his bright fur once more. She knew it wasn't his fault that he had been born with fur as bright and white as snow, but it sure was frustrating how it acted like a warning beacon to any prey in sight. Pushing away her irritation by instead focusing on the scents surrounding them, she soon caught wind of another squirrel just nearby, seeing it perched on the grass some distance away. She flicked her tail to point out the critter to the tom, not wanting to speak lest it heard them and ran off.

Yellowpaw jumped to her paws. "Let's go!" She mewed, her eyes shining. She glanced around the camp for her mentor, wondering if she should ask before leaving, but when she didn't see Adderstrike, she shrugged and trotted toward the camp entrance. She glanced over her shoulder to see if Nightpaw was following her.

Nightpaw got to his paws, shaking out his limbs slightly. He was glad Yellowpaw was enthusiastic about his ideas; he could feel his paws itching to train, and perhaps show off a little in the process. He hadn't been this excited to train in a while now; a lot of the time, his mentor had to drag him out to train, or blackmail him into it by threatening to give him the worst duties around camp if he didn't. He quickly followed after Yellowpaw, his smile reaching his eyes.
