Elmheart | with Grasswhisker ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁Elmheart hadn't found himself with much time to himself lately. In fact, he found himself exhausted. Being deputy was, not like he'd tell anyone, frightening. He was still having trouble organizing patrols and figuring out what to do with himself. The fact cats turned to him a bit more now made things all the more difficult. He didn't feel as if he knew his clan as well as he'd thought he had. The encouragement that his leader had to have seen something in him was only so much help. So, the fact he'd managed to snag a couple moments of actual time to himself was a weight off his shoulder. Spotting Grasswhisker made him a bit more cheerful. The older tom wasn't likely to ask him for a task after he'd just finished one and seemed to be resting. Elmheart slowly padded over, dipping his head in greeting. "Hey," he said, friendly - or hoping that was how he sounded. He sat down next to the other tom. "Mind some company?" he wondered. "That is, if you aren't doing anything." StarClan, he could use a break. Any amount of time would do.

Doveflower The long haired cream molly was finishing up her meal before going out and trying to catch some more prey. Things have been rough for their clan during the drought. However she was determined to find some more prey for the clan. As she finished her scrawny squirrel she made a face of disgust and gave a huff of irritation. It wasn't much but she finished it off and started to clean her face. Hopefully not all the prey are a scrawny as this squirrel, she thought worried about the future of the clan if the drought doesn't let up. She finally got off her rump and stretched looking around for a fellow clan mate to possibly go hunting with her. It was really no fun alone she would rather have someone go with her and talk to her. She spotted Hickoryfoot and gave a trill. She went towards the hyper warrior.
"Hey Hickoryfoot, would you like to go hunting with me?" she asked her long feathery tail swishing. She was excited to just go outside of the camp.

Hickoryfoot turned to look at Doveflower, her ears angling forward as the first indication of her excitement. Then she hurriedly got to her feet, the plume of her cream tail rising above her head. Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "I'd love to," she said, only just avoiding skipping a bit when she said that. She was so bored. Or rather, she hadn't found a reason to do anything yet. That made things a bit more interesting, if she was honest. "Where should we go hunting?" asked the SkyClan warrior, her fur fluffing up. She glanced toward the camp entrance, thinking about how they weren't climbing the trees anymore. This made things a bit difficult, but she was sure that meant that they were in need of more food than they currently had. "Should we go now?" she asked.

Doveflower The hyper active warrior was shooting questions left and right and it made Doveflower's head spin. She shook her head to clear the confusion that her brain was spinning around on. "How about we go to Strike's Edge?" she asked. She wanted to have fun and somewhere that didn't include having to climb tree's it made her sad she couldn't go to her favorite perch in Skyclan but the drought has made that difficult.
"We can go whenever you're ready," she said with a light trill. She was glad that Hickoryfoot was going with her. The warrior might have been hyperactive for sure but to her, she had a heart of gold and was willing to do anything. With that, her tail swished with happiness as she walked towards the entrance of the Camp waiting for her companion. She hoped that maybe she could befriend the warrior she needed friends that she can ask to go to hunting or border patrols to make it more fun for the cream-colored molly.

"Strike's Edge sounds good," agreed Hickoryfoot. She was pleased enough with this particular turn of events. There was a lot to be done around the clan and hopefully hunting would lighten the load on her brother's shoulders a little. He seemed so focused on his duties and what he needed to do for his clan. She was well prepared to hunt a bit more if it was to provide for the clan. StarClan knew they needed it. She padded after Doveflower, her pelt fluffing out. It felt hot. That seemed to be the only state of being lately. "I wonder if we'll get more rain in leaf-fall," she speculated to the other she-cat. "It makes me wonder what droughts can do then." There was, of course, the concern of mudslides and similiar. "Lead the way," she said cheerfully to Doveflower, whiskers angling in the direction they'd need to go.

Doveflower Doveflower gave a light purr as they moved out of the camp she noticed her companion fluffing up her fur. She looked sympathetic her own fluffy pelt was making her overheated as well. It was great for leaf-fall and leaf-bare but during new-leaf and green-leaf it was devastating. "Oh I'm looking forward to leaf-fall it would be cooler and I wouldn't be feeling like I'm about to catch on fire," the cream molly said only half joking. She did feel as if the sun was boring down on her back making her severely hot. "Although I do wish for rain, it would be better than this scorching mess," she thought. It worried her that Echoflower still hasn't communicated with Starclan. It scared her that their warrior ancestors are punishing them for something.
As she made her way through the territory she was sad to see the trees they were no longer allowed to climb on. It was truly depressing as the drought made everything more difficult the grass seemed to have nasty yellow patches as the grass blades continue not to be watered. Her tail swishing a little in aggravation. She didn't understand why this was happening and it must be stressful for all the clans. She sighed trying her best to make the adventure fun but seeing the devastation worried her. "Do you think we will ever get rain?" she asked Doveflower seemed sad.

"I really wish it would rain now," Hickoryfoot noted. It would at least possibly repair some of the existing damage to the foliage. That wasn't saying much, sadly. There was already a lot of damage. Her tail flicked, however. She was tired of talking about the drought. There was too much to, too much to focus on, that was more than the tired and old conversation that they'd all had over and over. At least they were going somewhere. She focused on the set of trees ahead, even though every look served as a reminder to the fact that they were already in trouble. Thinking about the other clans was no use. She was having trouble enough thinking about her own. With that in mind, she needed a distraction. She turned to Doveflower and humphed. "Raise you?" she asked, mischief working its way into her words. That seemed like the best way to take her mind of things. Running!

Doveflower Hickoryfoot // Skyclan Territory - On the way to Strikes Edge // mintedstar/fur🦇 Doveflower agreed it would be nice if it started to rain. The cream molly kept moving understanding her friends aggravation and trying to keep her own mind off the damage but it was hard. The once vibrant green foliage had turned either brown and dead or a pale green as they withered away. She grew sad the familiar territory no longer felt familiar but like an unknown landscape. She heard her companion hmphed and then saw the mischievous glint in Hickoryfoot's eyes.
"Race you?" Hickoryfoot asked. The cream molly was confused but then a light began to shine in her green eyes. "Is that a challenge?" she asked fluffing up her cream pelt. While her long fur probably would wear her out she wasn't going to allow herself to made into a fool. She began to run through the dead withered forest and thrust her fore and hind legs faster to try and get herself there first.

It had been a challenge and hickoryfoot was pleased to see it taken up. She bolted after the cream warrior, her own pelt going to have a matching issue. But she didn't care. She was much more interested in seeing how she could distract herself. Racing her friend seemed like the best option available. So she pelted after Doveflower, paws hitting against the ground, claws getting a grip in the dry earth, and sending her sailing after. Hickoryfoot's tail streamed out behind, like a banner that was just waiting to tell her friend she was going to win. And she did at least catch up, lithe paws and bunched muscles making up the difference. She laughed as she found herself neck in neck. "I'm gonna get there first!" she gasped, though her tone was even more playful.

Doveflower As Doveflower pushed herself to go faster she could see Hickoryfoot gaining on her. She had to slow down a bit her muscles aching from the overexcertion she was doing. She could now see they were neck and neck, however, she was fine with that. Hickoryfoot had playfully taunted her that she would get there first. The cream molly had no doubt she wouldn't get there first but she was going to atleast give her challenge. She had to began to push her legs forward using her claws to give her some momentuim as they raked agaisnt the earth. As she ran her tail had formed a little curl almost like a squirrel.
It wasn't long before the cream molly began to pant and eventually tire herself out. She had begun to walk again panting as the heat gotten to her. She knew Hickoryfoot was going to win but she didn't mind. Doveflower couldn't match her energy no way no how. She waited for Hickoryfoot to pass her as she walked. Maybe she could get a nice breeze to cool the hot sticky mess known as her pelt.

The tom adjusted, making room for the deputy while nodding. "Feel free." he answered with a yawn. He had gathered just enough to begin washing his pelt. Of course, this was to also show Elmheart that he wasn't simply being lazy.
"You feeling okay? Need anything?" the tom asked. In truth, he was praying he wouldn't be sent out into the heat of the forest again so soon. Grasswhisker wouldn't admit it, though. He had to show the younger generations that you just accept what is given. coding & icon image by officialrainleafwcf

Hickoryfoot passed Doveflower without much more exertion. Her feet pushed against the earth, bounding forward some more. But even she was starting to flag a bit. Eventually, when Doveflower pulled to a halt, so did Hickoryfoot. They were nearing their destination anywhere. Panting, she slowed her paces so she was traveling along at the same speed as the other warrior. "Doing okay?" she asked, checking that the other she-cat wasn't having too much trouble. It was probably best that they slowed down anyway. Causing too many problems if they ended up getting heatstroke or the like. A medicine cat really didn't need to deal with that. "It'll probably get cooler when we get to Strikes Edge," she added as reassurance. Hopefully. It would hopefully be cooler.

Elmheart didn't do any such thing, which Grasswhisker was likely grateful for. He knew that the warrior had already worked very hard and that a break - even if the heat and whatever else was going on today got in the way - was well deserved. "No, I don't particularly need anything," Elmheart reassured. "Just maybe some conversation, though that's completely optional." He knew for sure that there was likely some sort of expectation from him, what with being the new deputy, but he wasn't sure what it would be. So instead, he settled on asking, "What have you been up to?" Then a pause, because he realized he hadn't answered his own question. Elmheart's tail flickered and it felt a bit hot with embarrassment. Whoops. "I'm alright," he said, even if it was just a tiny lie. He wasn't sure how good or how not good he was. Things were all over the place while he worked it all out.

Doveflower Doveflower watched as Hickoryfoot passed her and almost came to a halt exactly when she did. The she-cat gave a laugh but in between pants. Her body ached as she slowly got to the other she-cat's side. She looked over at the tan tabby she-cat breathing heavy. "I hope it is cooler I may need to rest for a bit my muscles are aching," she said. She knew it was foolish to push herself that hard for a race but she was in the moment having fun for once.
She headed towards Strikes Edge hoping the tall trees would give her some shade from the blistering sun. Once the cream she-cat got underneath the shade of the tree's she collapsed her body was fully exhausted her tail flicked a bit from her aggravation. "I'm okay just need to rest for a bit," she said her limbs felt like jelly and heavy. She was scolding herself in her head about how stupid she was for pushing herself that hard.

“Understandable,” Hickoryfoot said. She was panting too. But she was also grinning. The run might have been tough, but it had at least done something for her spirits. They were up just a bit more than they had been before. She glanced over at her fellow warrior, stretching out her own legs a bit as she walked, saying, “You need to stretch more. Get in shape. Play with the kits and apprentices, they’ll make your energy levels go up.” Fun was important, if only to keep the rest of warrior work slightly more entertaining. Hickoryfoot could at least say that she found a lot of solitude in that. Hickoryfoot slowed and then stopped when they got to Strikes Edge. She glanced up, looking at the taller trees, and wishing she could climb them. It was probably cooler up there, where there was a breeze. Her pelt itched to do it, but even without the risks, her muscles were too tired to carry her own weight like that. “Rest as much as you need,” she said, still looking up. She was trying to spot if there were any squirrels or birds about. That would likely be the most effective to hunt right now.

Grasswhisker nodded, indeed grateful for the short rest. He could have a conversation with the deputy, that wasn't a hard task at all.
He noticed the awkward moment, but didn't let it linger for too long. "That's good. I've known Squirrelstar for a little while longer than you. I'm surprised she hasn't driven you to madness." he teased the deputy. "I'm just doing my duties and watching the Clan grow. I'm on the downhill now." the older tom joked. Of course, it was a bit of a morbid implication, but that's just how he felt his generation joked.
"If she's ever too much of a pain, you could just throw her on a patrol with some of the more.. interesting cats in the Clan." Mischief lit up in his pale green eyes. Of course, he knew there was a chance for Elmheart to reprimand him but Grasswhisker didn't mind. He certainly would do it if he was deputy. coding & icon image by officialrainleafwcf

"You seem capable enough," Elmheart encouraged, not sure if that was what Grasswhisker wanted or if he was comfortable with the knowledge that he was getting older. He wasn't sure. It didn't seem like something a lot of cats talked about and he was still pretty young in comparison. "I never thought of throwing our own leader on a patrol with the ... interesting cats," Elmheart muttered under his breath, quite as if afraid to have attention drawn to him. But he was leaning a bit closer to Grasswhisker and there seemed to be a hint of amusement in his voice now. "To be honest, I haven't thought much about her. She's capable, but I ... am a bit overwhelmed." There was a nervous purr in his voice at the admittance. "At any rate, who do you consider the more interesting cats anyway?"
