He tilted his head a bit as he mulled over the question; he wasn't really sure what he was doing wrong. It just seemed like he couldn't predict the movements that the prey would make. Sometimes that meant he went a little too far left or just barely pounced forward at all. Dustpaw's tail tip twitched and he blinked at Fennecpaw, "I think I go over my mark most of the time?" Just the other day he had been trying to pounce on a mouse when the furry creature made a quick dash backwards. This left Dustpaw a couple tail lengths ahead and as the pounce shook the earth, the mouse scurried off into its burrow.

[ Will do! c:
I am almost done with them. Sorry, it's taking so long. Three out of four of them are completely new characters and I haven't had the best week. It's been crazy, and I've been crying some. I hate crying xD It was just bad week, that supposed to be a good, easy quick week so I can do the 3 hour drive back home. 
Whoo-Hoo! ;D
From High School or College? ]

[ Yeah. It was more stressful than anything else, really.
Like Monday, I dropped my Crock Pot on the floor and it shattered everywhere with at least half of my buffalo chicken dip in it. Then that night we had a bed bug scare in my dorm house so we were up all night discussing what we were going to do and most of us decided not to go to classes because we were semi-afraid of spreading it to other people. But we decided to say screw once they released we were over reacting and then we went to class. And that is when my car wouldn't start yet my tears did.
So it was more stress-crying, "why is this my life"-crying than sad-crying. xD

That is great!
Hey, that is what matters the most. You did your years and now, you have a degree. Just get a job and work up to your career. c:
I think I have a year and half left of college. ]


Oh yeah and I finished Shyrabbit, Tawnyface, Wildpath, and Sandpaw ^^;]

( Blaze ♡ ; Oh no ;o; I hate those days
Well, it sucks that you cried, but I'm glad it wasn't something more serious! Things will definitely start looking better soon. cx

This is very much true. I suppose that's the whole reason for college xD
A year and a half will go by much quicker than you think, let me tell you!

I'll go add them <3

sweetclover1 ; Thank you! I'm going to have a degree in Psychology. It's pretty versatile when you look at the not-psychologist options ^^" If I want to be a psychologist or counselor though, I'll need a Masters or a PhD rip.
Enjoy it! There have definitely been days where I've hated college, but now that I'm nearing the end, I don't really want to go. cx I loved the classes and the friends I've made! Adulting is something you just learn by trial and error ^^" )

Dustpaw paused for a moment to think over the suggestion. It made sense and seemed a little obvious, but also completely strange. Who thought to pounce after prey while not aiming right for it? With a nod, Dustpaw looked over at the other tom. "I think that's a good idea." Taking up a rock he had carried home the day before, the tom placed it a tail-length away. Moving back to his original position, he crouched, eyes on the rock. Okay, Dustpaw, you can do this. Moving his attention to a bit ahead of the rock, he pushed off with his hindlegs, sailing through the air.
For the first time in a long time, one of the tom's paws landed right on the mark. It caught the rock and startled him, the act actually having seemed impossible. "I did it?"

[ No problem. I was just wanted to make sure I knew what was going on. ^^;
I was thinking a caregiver was a queen that has experienced with kits but is traditionally warrior when there are no kits to be taken care of. A caregiver in this clan is like a mid-wife in the human world, right? Or something like that. xD Maybe I should just think lionesses and how they handle their cubs. ]

"Great job, Dustpaw! Now the real test will be when ya go hunting," Fennecpaw purred, not only proud of his friend but happy he could be of use. Outside of the apprentices and kits, the young tom often felt as if he was just a nuisance to them. It felt good to have been able to teach him something his clanmates couldn't.

[ It is nighttime in RP, isn't it?
And I need to leave so I can get my homework. cx ]

Sandpaw & Shyrabbit - -

"Mom, let me up", Sandpaw grunted at her mother and she tried to wiggle away. The former queen was holding down the apprentice with a paw pressed against her shoulders. The creamy white she-cat released a low whine sound and lashed her tail. "I am not a little kit anymore... I don't need your help", she forced out through gritted teeth as she clawed at the ground in a feeble attempt of escape. Sandpaw wanted to go out, she knew the sun had set already and Tawnyface promised he would escort her while she went hunting. She just made the mistake of letting her mother see her with shaggy looking fur.

"Hush Sandpaw", Shyrabbit scolded gently, although there was an amused flicker in her amber eyes. Shyrabbit leaned down and gave swift licks between Sandpaw's ears, and paused for a moment to say, "Honestly honey, you look like a mess". She swished her tail as if she was satisfied with her point and went back to grooming her daughter's shaggy-looking fur. "I don't know how you had gotten so messy. You were only in the cavern today", she meowed with a scolding edge to her voice as she continued to groom down the unruly tufts of fur. "Unless you were playing rough with Fennecpaw again", Shyrabbit meowed, mildly. Once the apprentices learned more and more battle moves, they started practicing those on each other rather than just the fun soft-tacklings that kits would do. Shyrabbit was always worried that they would hurt themselves one way or another.

[ Oh my gosh.
Yes. xDD ]

[ "-cleverly puts in a section about his messy fur-"
xD
Give me a sec and I will type something up.
I am really cold right now, I think the thermostat is set too low. ]

[ Just fyi. my "sec" are the worst xD I am sorry. I was just going to change my avatar real quick but it become a monster.
I am not a coffee drinker. I do enjoy cappunicuno but only gas station cappunicunos and they typically have to be White chocolate caramel. I am very specific. xD
Once I borrow under the covers to sleep, I will be fine ^^; I think it feels colder when my hands are exposed and they feel coolish-numb, know ~ ]

"Fennecpaw!", Sandpaw exclaimed as she spotted her friend. She wiggled some more and to her relief, her mother finally removed her paw. She scrambled to her paws with no apparent grace, the young feline almost faceplanted the floor in her hash to get back on her paws. "Yes, absolutely", she meowed in an eager tone, sliding over towards the tom, "It sounds like fun!". Her amber eyes were bright with excitement. She needed to get away from her mother as fast as possible before something more embarrassing started to happen to her.

  Shyrabbit allowed her daughter to get her paws. She twitched in whiskers in faint amusement. She allowed her gaze to flicker around the cavern, her eyes landing on her brother for a brief moment before flashing back to the apprentices. The slender she-cat padded over towards the pair of the apprentices, taking note of Sandpaw's eagerness to get away from her. It was extremely amusing. "Hello Fennecpaw", she meowed to the young tom, with a slight purr edging her meow.
  He was such sweetheart and Sandpaw seemed to take to him. Shyrabbit felt a slight pang of sadness, she wondered what if her other kits would've survived if they would be close to Sandpaw like Fennecpaw seemed to be. She shook her head, clearing the thoughts from her head. Those thoughts were best to grieve over in private.
  "Your fur is a mess", she chuckled in a soft tone as she brushed her tail gently across the tom's back in a slight attempt to brush his fur down, yet it was no use. "Don't forget to groom yourself before you go to bed tonight", she meowed to him in a soft yet stern tone, "We don't need you and Sandpaw both looking like you crawled through the muck", she sighed in exasperation. 'Apprentices', she thought as she looked at the two with fond flicker her eyes.
