Twistedfoot may be mad at kits if they messed something up, and for good reason. The herbs were precious. Considering what happened when he and Featherkit irritated Lionclaw, he didn't want to take chances. But alas, he will just follow the leader the way a loyal warrior should. Perhaps he was just too shy to voice his opinion, but he didn't want Wolfkit to think ill of him. "To the medicine den we go then, " he mewed cheerily. "Perhaps you'll see your father sorting the herbs or interpreting signs with Milkstar. " A twinge of bitterness swept into his consiousness as he thought about his own father. Milkstar... Surely he could visit us?» LARCHSHADE | LAKE | TAWNYMASK˜*•. ˜”*°•.˜”*°••°*”˜.•°*”˜ ˜”*°•.˜”*°••°*”˜.•°*”˜ .•*˜˜*•. ˜”*°•.˜”*°••°*”˜.•°*”˜ "You're right, " Larchshade mused in response, staring at the clear water that lapped the shore mouse-lengths away. Mouse-lengths that were normally full of lake. Her gaze flitted over to the little stream Tawnymask mentioned, its contents flowing freely as usual. She studied the small river again, to make sure she wasn't seeing things. Was it just her, or did the water level sink? She didn't hunt there too frequently so she didn't keep notice of the waters, but she remembered enough from her last trip. "Perhaps we'll find better hunting there, " the dark she cat replied drily. "The lake is rid of all the fish. Is it just me, or is the stream lower than usual? "

[ I hope you're feeling better Littleflower :c ]
CLOUDHEART | Camp | Sparrowpelt Cloudheart let out a soft chuckle, the image of Lionclaw being surrounded by his own kits bouncing around him quite entertaining. "Aah perhaps. I do hope so," he replied. He knew just what kits could do to a tom. When he himself was younger, he was so careless and carefree. But after his mate gave birth to Iceheart, that had all changed. It matured him, having the responsibility of looking after and being a role model to his daughter - and he could certainly say that it was the best thing that had ever happened to him. To this day, seeing what a successful warrior she had grown into brought him so much pride, and he only hoped that she one day had a family of her own so that she could experience the wonders of a family too. "I can still remember when Iceheart was just a kit! Time flies by too fast." he remarked. ( Sierra)

EAGLESTRIKE | Forest Clearing | Fogpaw
Eaglestrike's whiskers twitched in amusement at his apprentice's stance, reminding him somewhat of the way in which kits play fight. He knew his apprentice was only doing it out of excitement, however, and his mentor knew that meant he was ready to work hard. "Well, I don't believe you'll be able to do much from that position," Eaglestrike pointed out, though there was a warmth to his tone that showed he wasn't at all mocking his apprentice. "I want us to start with the basics. I know you probably already know some basic battle moves just from having observed others, but it's important to know that a battle starts even before you make your first move," he paused for a second, wanting his words to sink in before he continued, "You want to be able to gauge your opponent before you attack. What are their strengths? What are their weaknesses? But perhaps most importantly, what are your own strengths? And, of course, what are your own weaknesses?"
Eaglestrike delivered all this in his normal calm and serious tone, knowing that half the battle could be decided just on whether or not one was able to size up their opponent correctly. Underestimating an enemy could have disastrous consequences, but overestimating your own skills was just as bad. He looked expectantly at Fogpaw when he had finished, prompting him to answer his last questions: what did he think were his strengths and weaknesses?
(ᴘᴏʟʏᴏɴʏᴍᴏᴜꜱ ) [ sorry about the inactivity recently guys, I've just been so busy with school work that I've had a hard time getting on here ;/ ] Fogpaw | The forest clearing | with Eaglestrike
Fogpaw returned to a normal stance as he heard his mentor's words; he let out a small laugh. "Sorry, just got a little excited." He began to feel the adrenaline pulse through his veins as his mentor continued to teach him through his words. He nodded at to the words of 'observing others', Fogpaw may have been pretty scatterbrained, but when the time came he loved to watch the battles- they always seemed so intense and powerful and someday he too wanted to be in a situation like such.
"My strengths and weaknesses?" Fogpaw cocked his head as he began to think. My strengths and weaknesses are... "I'd say that my size is a pretty big strength," he concluded, "I'm basically the size of a warrior, and I might even grow more..." His voice trailed off as he began to think of weaknesses. "A weakness would probably be that I'm not fully trained in battle tactics, so I could easily be taken down." When he said the words 'taken down', he realized something else. "My size could also be considered as a weakness too because I'd be easy to sweep underneath." He then nodded at Eaglestrike, obviously content with his reply.

• Sparrowpelt • Warrior • Camp •
Cloudheart // @ashfeather This seemed to darken Sparrowpelt's mood considerably. "Yes, yes it does," he murmured softly, looking back and the bustling activity behind him. "I just wish... You know, that I could be more active and helpful. It feels like I'm so useless! And for many moons I have been, but for some reason now it all seems to feel more like it." He shoulders slumped, discouraged by his own speech. Twitching his tail slightly, he shook his head. "The kits and apprentices are the hope of the clan, while the warriors are the support and the strength. What am I? An useless, cranky old lump to drag around, that's what." Alarmed by his sudden reveal to Cloudheart, he snapped his head back, his eyes wide. "My apologies, Cloudheart! You certainly did not have to hear that. And anyways, it's selfish to complain of my problems."

• Silversong • Warrior • Camp •Darkshadow // ͐T͐͐ᴡ͐͐ɪ͐͐ɪ͐ᴀ͐ Silversong dipped her head, wisely choosing to ignore the moment of rudeness and impertinence that Darkshadow had displayed. "Very well," she meowed a little cooly. "The lake it is." She made no comment on the kits, and instead strided over to the entrance of the camp. "I've already notified that I might go on a patrol, so no worries there," she commented matter-of-factly. She padded in a hurried manner towards the large lake, which she could already sea. It's glistening waters made her feel a little more at ease, despite the... pleasant company.

{Back... For now... I'll just post a starter for whoever wants to rp or has a free charrie.}
Squirrelheart walked into the camp and saw warriors and apprentices leaving on patrols and returning. Might as well eat something. she thought to herself. If something is going to happen to the clan, I'll need to be at full strength. She walked over to the fresh-kill pile and picked up a succulent mouse and walked back towards the Medicine cats den before settling down to eat.

CLOUDHEART | Camp | Sparrowpelt
Cloudheart blinked up at the other tom, surprised by his sudden change in mood. Though he could certainly understand the feeling; he often found himself wishing that he were younger once more and off on a hunting patrol. In many ways, he couldn't help but feel like a burden to the camp. But small things kept him going, like seeing Iceheart excel in all her warrior duties. He may no longer be a warrior, but he was certainly still a father, and would be until his dying breath. And when he finally left to Starclan, he knew that he would look back on his life with pride and happiness.
"That's most alright, Sparrowpelt. I feel the same sometimes," he replied, looking out at the bustling activity of the camp before them. Then, with a cheeky smile reminiscent of his childhood mischief, he added, "Plus we're elders. We've earned the right to a grumble every now and then. I know the apprentices are certainly sick of hearing me complain."
(Sierra)
EAGLESTRIKE | Forest Clearing | Fogpaw
Eaglestrike watched his apprentice start to analyse his skillset silently, glad that he was taking the question seriously. Most young cats were often to excited to leap into battle that they failed to take note of their opponent first and what they were actually capable of, so this self-reflection was important. He knew that as an apprentice, he had certainly overestimated himself due to his size, but his own mentor had put those thoughts out of his brain with one training session, where he had been beaten time and time again despite his mentor being smaller than him. That had certainly knocked any arrogance out of his mind.
Eaglestrike nodded at his apprentice's response, happy that he had managed to correctly identify his strengths and weaknesses. "Very good," he praised with a smile, "Your size is most definitely your biggest asset, though its good that you recognise it can also be a weakness. Not only are cats able to sweep under you more easily, as you said, but you may also find that you're slightly slower than smaller cats, who tend to be more agile. This means that you have to land your blows more carefully, as if you lunge forward without aim, smaller opponents may easily skip around you. Hopefully, your knowledge in battle tactics will soon increase, so that will no longer be a disadvantage for you anymore."

"The Medicine Cat den?" he looked at Wolfkit with uncertainty, but soon imagined what he knew of the den from overhearing conversations in the nursery. Images of piles of interesting herbs and smells, big leaves and sticky honey, plenty of material for a mischievous bunch to play with began to convince him. "Okay!" Featherkit replied with excitement to his den-mate, his eyes lighting up and tail waving in the air and pouncing along beside his brother Galekit.
"Lionclaw was a big furball wasn't he?" Featherkit looked at his brother with a scrunched up face that soon relaxed as his mind quickly moved along to the next subject. "And Milkstar didn't do anything," he said proudly, proving his point that he was immune to punishment and consequence. He couldn't quite understand his sibling's more humble approach on life, despite feeling perhaps displaced from his family when it came to his father, the advantages that came with his title made him feel as though he had a step up in life that he should take advantage of.

Smiling contently at Kestrelkit, the tom chuckled at her attempt at intimidation and ferociousness. "I don't doubt that for a second," he replied, looking over at Fawnsong and rolling his eyes with amusement. It was no secret that he was a small and frail tom, it was clearly visible, and it was almost guaranteed that their kits would outgrow and also overpower him. Twistedfoot found no bitterness at this fact, and instead felt love and pride in his kits and adoration for his mate in birthing and raising such beautiful and headstrong kits.
Twistedfoot opened his mouth to over-explain to his kits the best way to enjoy a fish when his daughter took matter into her own paws and took her first bite of fish. Looking over at Fawnsong he shook his head, "She is always quite the adventurous type isn't she," he turned back to the two kits and watched them, letting his thoughts wander off towards his duty as a medicine cat and the fact that one of his kits would be training alongside him. When Squirrelheart had become a Medicine cat apprentice, Twisedfoot had secretly hoped she'd be the first to kit and fill in the third spot, but being a young and busy cat, it had ultimately been him who had found a mate, not only before Squirrelheart but also at an unusually old age, the timing was almost unbelievable. Though these thoughts of his kits' destinies occasionally left him feeling uneasy, he had no regrets.

"How am I ever going to catch a fish like this when I'm so small?" Foxkit looked at her mother with worry, then glancing back at the fish. Kestrelkit had already started eating and from the looks of it she was having the time of her life. Her fear could hold her back no longer as the smell of the fish drew her in and she took a massive bite. The juices dripped down her chin and soaked her neck in a fishy scent, and once she finally managed to chew it down with her tiny fangs and swallow it Foxkit looked at her father with awe, "I want to eat fish forever," she commented, going back in for another bite.
