❝Well, Strawberry━❞ He starts letting his tail sway lightly as it hung over the brick wall as he opened his mouth to continue he was interrupted by a rustle of leaves in a shrub making his head snap in its direction but it was just a bird so he refocuses back to the female who easily appeared a moon younger than him. ❝First you talk about some weird animal called a "hamster". I mean what in Starclan is that? Some type of fancy mouse your twoleg's give you?❞ He twitched his own ear and breathed in the thick, wet air. He could hear it raining again but only lightly. Yet they were protected by the thick trees from above.
He was curious about her. She was a blind cat yet she got up on the top of this wall by herself. He suddenly smiles. ❝Yet... you seem different than the other mousefodders' I've seen around here.❞ The red tomcat has a hint of amusement in the tone of his voice. Licking his paw, he drew it across his face, rubbing away some droplets of rain that managed to squeeze through the trees above.

Strawberry ❝ ━Don't let yesterday take up too much of today. ♛
Caution turned to amusement as her muscles loosened and lips curled into a pretty smile. Foxwing’s lack of knowledge over household animals amused her so, drawing even the smallest of laughs to escape her lips. Then, all at once, she burst out giggling, the beautiful sound coming off as playful and even lighthearted.
“I love it! Fancy mouse is the new term I’ll describe hamsters from here on out. But yes, they are a type of rodent. My friends say they are tailless though, with huge cheeks.” She paused for a moment, trying to decipher what he meant by ‘twoleg’. Then it hit her—the sound of her housefolk walking compared to a cat or a dog. Unlike her four-legged companions, humans had two legs, and it was apparent by the noise their gait prompted.
“Oh no, our owners don’t give us hamsters. They’re apart of the family just like I would be. My family doesn’t own any hamsters, though. They prefer, hmm, bigger animals.” At the swish of movement, Strawberry took the opportunity to clean herself as well, ears remaining pricked and attentive to any other sound that might approach. Her coat was still drenched, but had begun to dry, so no longer did fur stick uncomfortably to the sides of her flanks. Instead, some patches had puffed out in random places, and she couldn’t help but wonder how ridiculous that would look. So, she took a moment to smooth down the rebellious tufts, guided by the feeling of dry vs wet along her ginger pelage. She stopped mid-lick at the sound of his voice and quirked a brow, almost incredulous.
“Mousefodders?” Now it was her moment to be confused by a term. However, given the context, she could only assume it had been an insult—not directed towards her, but her many neighborhood friends. She bit back the desire to teasingly return with, ‘well you seem different than the flea-bitten wildcats I’ve heard along these parts’, only holding back out of the desire to keep the conversation civil, as there was no telling how he’d react so such a comment. Besides, she’d heeded an amused note in his voice, so perhaps the jibe hadn’t supposed to be taken literally. As a result, she still managed a cheerful,
“Thank you.” And then more curiously added, “Why do you say that? I’m sure there’s a more adventurous and capable cat in this neighborhood." She passed a paw over her eyes. “I’m just me.”

Foxwing’s ears prick up at the sudden sound of laughter. His green gaze turns to Strawberry. Who was the source of the sound. The lovely sound. A sound he wouldn’t mind hearing more often He feels a smile creeping on his maw. Only to put it to an abrupt stop with a frown replacing the smile at her explaining what this ‘hamster’ was to him. ❝Ugh. They sound disgusting. I can understand why you wouldn’t eat them now.❞ he states a hint of disgust in his voice. It sounded a little like a chipmunk but less appealing. To him at least. He sat there with confusion sprawled on his face.
The Somali’s ears twitch at the mention of bigger animals. Dogs. Could only be the answer. Which did freak him out a bit but he’s outrun them before so it wasn’t too big of a problem. He stretched from his sitting position, he rose abruptly to a standing one and let out a small yawn. He then chuckles. ❝Don’t worry. It’s just another term for you Kittypet.❞ He answers her. ❝But you’re welcome.❞ he adds-on with a warm and friendly tone to his voice.
He had turned around to jump back down the wall only to pause at her question. He turns back to face Strawberry. ❝Well, I’ve never seen any cat up here on the wall before. And it’s quite dangerous to get to. I mean from what I can see.❞ He starts. He smiles once more.
❝You just seem special.❞
His ears suddenly pirck up at turn to the forest upon hearing a distant voice. As the voice got closer it was becoming easier to recognize. A honey-like voice drifting throughout the slight windy rainy weather. ❝FOXWING!❞ the voice calls out. Oh great.. Honeystep. The Somali turns his back to look at the she-cat. He sighs only to push himself on all fours. ❝I have to go.❞ He states turning around as he leaps gracefully down off the wall landing on all fours. He glances up at Strawberry giving her a soft smile even though he knows she can't see it. ❝I'll see you around, Kittypet.❞ And this those parting words he darts off back into the wilderness, his bushy tail disappearing into a bush.

Strawberry ❝ ━Don't let yesterday take up too much of today. ♛
ᴘᴀɪɴᴛᴇᴅᴛᴜɴᴅʀᴀ
A small smile graced her face, enthralled by this wild cat’s reaction towards hamsters. It was endearing, the way he seemed almost indignant to the notion of chubbier, tailless mice. Strawberry would've went on to continue to explain other household pets, but it caught in her throat. Another voice drew her attention to the wilderness, wind billowing its chilled breaths against her face, bringing in the fresh scent of damp grass and woodland animals. The sound was dulcet and soft, but for some reason or another Strawberry’s fur stood on end. Yes, she’d relaxed around Foxwing, but another warrior was one too many. She did not want to feel outnumbered in case something went awry. So, at the sound of the tom’s farewell, the she-cat relaxed and gave a thankful nod.
“Goodbye!” she called out after him, hearing the rustling of a bush as he finally departed, taking with him the smell of the untamed.
Her head tilted slightly, thinking the whole affair particularly peculiar. Never in her life had she expected to meet one of the fabled ‘warriors of the forest’ and have an actual civil conversation. Whenever someone in the neighborhood had an interaction with a clan cat, they typically reported back with complaints of a near death experience or the possibility of being maimed. Strawberry had always been unsure whether or not these claims had been exaggerated, or lied about to fabricate gossip. Foxwing had had a polite enough personality that caused her to question some of these allegations, but she knew others had a sense of truth to them. Clan cats were territorial and they had the knack of insulting house cats as lazy and stupid. Even Foxwing had seemed a bit apprehensive at first. Still, it intrigued her greatly, and as she leapt down her side of the wall, she knew she had a story to recount to Solomon.
…But first to break the news to Simba and the search party. Even through all the excitement, Strawberry had not forgotten her quest in trying to find Chloe.

As Foxwing left the wall and furthered away from the kittypet he honestly forgot about Honeystep. He was so curious about the blind pet. She surely piqued his interest. The tom was only jerked out of his thoughts as his ears perked as his name was called, and he froze where he was standing. Suddenly Honeystep's vivid even milky white pelt came into his field of vision like an explosion, demanding all of his attention at once. And honestly he had to take a step back letting out a huff of annoyance. ❝... Hello, Honeystep.❞ he grumbles out. Now the pretty lilac ragdoll deputy of Fjordclan somehow still didn't get the hint that the red Somali wasn't really fond of her. Surely she could guess he didn't by his tone of voice whenever she talked to him but nonetheless she was enamored by him.
Honeystep let's out a giggle as she takes a step even closer to Foxwing. ❝Hello, Foxwing.❞ She responds with a bat of her blue eyes. Foxwing feels like he couldn't roll his eyes hard enough. The smaller she-cat watches as the tom manuvers around her and continues on back to camp. She can only have a bounce in her step as she quickly follows after the warrior. ❝So.. I didn't see you this morning at all. Which is so unlike you. Where did you go?❞ She questions ever so with a gentle voice. Foxwing huffs slightly lowering his ears in annoyance. ❝Nowhere you need to be concerned about Honeystep.❞ This response actually makes the ragdoll's face twist into anger but only for a split second before it went back to being all smiles. And with that the conversation comes to an end as they eventually make it back into camp.

Strawberry ❝ ━Don't let yesterday take up too much of today. ♛
Treads came light against the rough pavement and cool stone of human road. Ears pricked and pads at the ready, attentive, aware, of any rumble that could indicate an incoming vehicle. Though nothing set off her alarms, the she-cat continued at a quickened pace, finally touching against the smoother, softer feel of the sidewalk. With a mental map linked to touch and smell, she easily navigated through the pathways, perhaps as effortlessly as a cat with vision could traverse.
The wind exhaled a sighing breath, finally tempered of its rage in the storm. It graced her face with a soothing, refreshing touch. Cold, yes, but no longer the biting chill that seeped deep into vulnerable skin unprotected by a soaked coat. Her nostrils flared for a moment, detecting a smell carried along by the breeze. It didn’t take long for the scent to be associated by sound: the pitter-patter of paw-steps easily drawing her attention to the right. Someone was approaching.
“Hello Barry,” she said calmly before the tom could announce his presence. There came a hard pause before the male actually spoke. He cleared his voice.
“Find anything?” It came out as awkward and forced. Strawberry rolled her eyes. Sure the two didn’t get along as well as others, but he could at least toughen up for once.
“That is none of your business. Is Simba home?”
“Ehh, negative. He left me to collect everyone’s report.” The blind cat fidgeted on her paws, uncertain. She didn’t want to divulge the information to this tom. He was known for being the biggest gossiper in town. Heaving a sigh, she saw no other option.
“In that case, Barry, I need this only for Simba’s eyes, am I clear? I found her scent trail leading into the woods. Clan territory. I honestly don’t want a whole debacle on Chloe going rogue, so I repeat myself, nobody must know by Simba.” Leaning forward she added, “You don’t want Solomon getting loose and neither do I.” An audible gulped broke through the otherwise peaceful ambience. Strawberry smiled gently. Mischief twinkled in her eye.
“So I guess we’re understood then. See you later Barry!”
And off she went.
-- A little while later, through human scoffing and towel drying, the she-cat sprawled daintily across the massive forelegs of Solomon, thick muscle against soft fur. Whining could be heard from behind the door they were both propped up against, AC drafts carrying the warm scent of youth and milk. “I can’t believe we get to foster puppies,” she sighed. “Chloe would’ve loved to meet them.” “Rowdy lil’ ankle biters thus far. Chloe was never one to get ‘er paws dirty. Which is so odd that she’d go into the woods for kitting. There’s gotta be foul play involved.”
“Oh you’re such a cop,” Strawberry mused. “I’m guessing her owners spooked her. They were never the best of people and her motherly instinct could’ve flared. But since you did mention foul play, I did see a Clan cat really close to the border.” The dog’s wet snout nuzzled up against the molly’s ear for a moment and inhaled her scent. “Hmm, so that was the odd reek on your fur. The wannabe ocelots causin’ you some trouble?”
“Oh no, no! He was very polite. He complimented my being able to jump on the brick wall. Which I suppose was nice, as I usually hear them insulting neighborhood cats.” “Eh, sounds sketchy. You didn’t let your guard down just because a tom said some sweet words, did ya?” The she-cat gave a laugh and bumped a paw against the dog’s chest. When he didn’t join in her amusement, she stopped and frowned.
“No, of course not. I was wary the entire time. But like him, I suppose I was also curious. You usually never get a chance to have a civil conversation with a feral cat!” “I’d stay away if I were you. Never trust an animal you can’t get a good background check of. Bad things always come from it. His name?” Strawberry sighed. She hated when Solomon became like a suffocating big brother rather than the playful sibling she had so much fun with. Then again, she could see where he was coming from and rested a head against one of his paws.

I love Solomon's accent, country right? ^ ^ Koi's a newborn baby though? I doubt she'd be able to talk??? :0 But I'll be happy to play Hickory. I love Mudspider's name btw
What if Rye also knows about Fox having to kill Chloe and who she was because she had been kind of like a prisoner for a bit in the clan? ]

ᴘᴀɪɴᴛᴇᴅᴛᴜɴᴅʀᴀ - - { That's 100% fine! Take as long as you need, there's no hurry ^^ At first I was striving for more of an Australian accent, but halfway through I just gave in to a Southern drawl, realizing it would suit him a lot more! So that's great lol! Oh frick you're right. Hmm, I see Almond being the mother of the group so she'd totally bring lil baba Koikit out into the soon with the rest of the siblings. And mama Rye has to fret thinking someone is gonna hurt lil bab, but it's all good because big sibs are super gentle! I really want an adorable dynamic <33 So maybe she doesn't talk, but you can always have her crawling about in a main post such as Fox's or something :0 Ahh, thanks so much <33! He has a brother called Tarsmudge, but I don't know if I'll be adding him into this RP. If I do I'll let you know <33
And omgosh I love that idea! Yeahhh, let's do it! So going off of that, originally it was Fox who saves one of the kits. What if Fox's only job was to do away with Chloe and Coal is the one to do the Big Bad with the kits and Rye stepped in to save the sole surviving one despite following all his orders, and seeing her snap for once in her life maybe let him respect her decision in caring for the baba? But he totally would still treat Koi like garbage. }

Foxwing was making his way to the nursery to visit his nieces and nephew along with their mother, his sister, Ryewillow. But of course Honeystep gets in his way yet again. ❝Foxwing,❞ she starts with a hint of annoyance in her tone of voice. And it wasn't her usual annoying tone but her 'I'm-the-deputy-so-do-as-I-say' tone. Honestly Foxwing hated both. ❝You do remember that Coalstar wanted to speak with you this morning.❞ Just the mention of his uncle couldn't make Foxwing stop from almost vibrating in anger. Honeystep even if she was the deputy knew the very strained relationship Foxwing had with the large muscular leader. But yet here she was mentioning him.
The Somali sighs. ❝I know, Honeystep. I just want to visit my family first, okay?❞ Foxwing didn't even give the ragdoll a chance to respond before he quickly ushered past her and into the nursery. His gloomy mood immediately brightens upon seeing the three kits and Ryewillow. Yet his green eyes can't help but linger on the small calico nestled into the red she-cat's stomach. And he was the cause of the small bundle's drastic life change. He killed her birth mother. He had to. Coalstar had threatened to kill Ryewillow. And he had promised to himself that he'd protect her no matter what. Mother didn't even have to ask him. Sure him and Ryewillow didn't get along at times but she was his little sister. He'd do anything for her.
And to make matters worse. He had just earlier lied to the blind kittypet. Strawberry. Just thinking about the worried cat made him feel even more guilty. He knew eventually he would have to tell her the truth. But he would get to that bridge another moon. Right now his sole focus was to make sure the little calico survived the wrath of Coalstar. He forces a smile on his face as he further enters the den easily trying not to step on the excited kittens who were all over him the minute he stepped in. ❝Uncle Fox!❞ Hickorykit squeaks out happily almost knocking over her brother, Rowankit, in the process. [ this reply is idk. ]
