(Sounds good I'll throw a starter up)
Oakwhisker returned back to camp, a squirrel and mouse in his muzzle. He had left earlier to go hunting briefly, his mind wandering about the events of the clan. Sighing inwardly to himself he deposited the fresh kill to the pile. Letting his gaze wander around the camps premonitor.

Emberpaw watched Jaggedpaw, he looked in thought as he slipped past her and into the water. With her tail beginning to twitch, in anticipation, her whiskers started as well. Upon him bringing up diving her body stilled before she joined the tabby deeper into the water. Loosing gripping faster then he did off the ground due to her size. "Haven't tried it yet," She admitted her ears warming up in embarrassment, feeling as though this is something beginners started with.

“Oh don’t worry about it,” Jaggedpaw meowed as he circled Emberpaw, mistaking her embarrassment for anxiety. “I’ll be right here, I won’t let anything happen.” He met her eyes, doing his best to convey his earnest promise.
He quickly became nervous staring into her eyes however and peered down instead at the lake’s bottom. Without warning he dove, his dark figure growing smaller as he reached the bottom. With a careful claw he flipped one of the pale pebbles to its darker, stained side.
Jaggedpaw quickly swam the two tail lengths back to the surface. He broke from the water and was instantly beaming at Emberpaw, “there.” He meowed.
“That dark stone down there, your going to try and flip it back onto it’s pale side.” He floated in the water, constantly controlling his breathing to stay afloat even with his heavy, waterlogged fur. “But first the rules for diving: your got to stay calm, it’s the most important rule. You’ll never dive if you can’t keep your head under the water. So take a few deep breaths to calm yourself.” He felt Frostwhisper would be proud of his perfect memory of her lesson. It was rare he remembered so well, but then again diving was one of his favorite activities.

Petalwhisper licked a paw and drew it over her ear. The sun was shining and it was warm in the little patch of sun she had found on the outskirts of camp. Her belly had finally dropped, swaying to the side when she walked, Swollen with the kits Starclan had gifted her.

Petalwhisper purred. She could use a hot meal right about now, and her mate always had a way of having perfect timing. "All is well." She mewed, not waiting for him to take the first bite of the rabbit. She had been eating more seeing that the kits in her were growing so fast. "Not to long before our whole fmaily is here1' She mewed, licking her belly.

Emberpaw watched Jaggedpaw circle her, it was comforting to have the tom close as she slowly shifted her legs beneath her to keep afloat. But when the young tom met her eyes and held his gaze she felt her ears heat up even more. Feeling as if they would spontaneously combust. 'What the heck keep it together Emberpaw." She thought to herself. But relief quickly followed as he dove under water.
Studying the way he used his strong legs to paddle downward she was impressed. Imagine being underneath the surface already caused her brief anxiety now. He made it look so easy, flawless. Practice definitely makes perfect she mused. Watching him flip the rock and then return she giggled as water sprayed her and he hit the surface. His noticable happiness.
Listening to his advice she nodded eagerly. Looking down beneath her the calico took a couple of sturdy breaths. Clearing her mind of any anxieties. "Okay, I'm ready." She spoke aloud before taking a deep breath and launching herself underneath. Sadly she basically did a tumble as panic filled her and she broke surface quickly gasping. "Oh fox dung." She spat, feeling silly.
Repeating the breathing process she remembered Jaggedpaw motion and tried once more. This time getting half a tail length before bursting the surface. Of was better but still made her pelt feel heavy with not only water but disappointment.
----
Oakwhisker flicked his tail in apparent pleasure at being invited over by the deputy. Snagging a vole that had been sitting longer than his two freshly killed prey he trotted over to Cherrywish. Petalwhisper would more than likely enjoy the warmer pret, and it was a habit of his to not let things go to waste. "Hey Cherrywish, how have you been enjoying the day? Interesting meeting this morning." He questioned, allowing an extra comment for conversation to be made.
Settling down beside her, his large body made a thump and he laid into a comfortable position to begin eating his vole. Glancing at it he always felt a little bad eating fresh-kill. Sometimes they looked so cute, other times terrified. With those thoughts in mind he prayed to the ancestors a little harder than usual in thanks.

Emberpaw's eyes widened in surprise when Jaggedpaw called her amazing. For half a second it felt as if her soul had been touched by Starclan themselves. Her skin itching with heat, it was a wonder that the water didn't start boiling between the two of them.
Watching him splutter and tumble over his words, her whiskers began twitching in amusement as he floundered to save himself. Giggling once he spluttered out swan, hearing the beginning of duck. A purr rumbled from her chest. "You're sweet Jaggedpaw." She responded, softly hoping to calm his nerves at least a little bit.
Turning her attention back to the water, she felt her legs growing tired as she paddled. Curse her smaller structure, longer fur. Deciding to take one more try she looked at Jaggedpaw once more amusement lighting her amber gaze. "Let's see if I can find the grace of a duck this time hmm?" She giggled before taking a deep breath and diving once more. Slowly releasing air as she decsended she got about half a tail length away from the pebble before turning tail and bursting the surface. Gasping as she came up.

“The day has been fair, there seems to be plenty of prey in the grass,” she mewed, gesturing toward the freshkill pile. The ginger she-cat sighed, stretching her legs out in front of her. “Yes, interesting indeed. I wonder where she went, or what took her...” she murmured, loud enough for Oakwhisker to hear, but still quiet. Cherrywish hoped for Swiftkill to be safe, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that it wasn’t right, like it was something more than just her disappearance. “How about you, was the prey running well for you?”

(Yall, i fell asleep HARD CORE lol)
Petal whisper took another bite after her mate. After hearing his words, she rolled her eyes. He was always doting on her when she was out of the nursery. "What warrior things have you done today?" She mewed. She missed her warrior life. After these kits were born, she planned on going out at least to hunt her own food.

Emberpaw nodded gratefully for his suggestion. Swimming towards shore she stood and shook her fur out. First the body and then one leg at a time. Settling down for a moment she groomed a portion of her fur. Knowing full well if she let it dry out too much it would clump due to its length. Sighing to herself she could feel the ache in her muscles. It was pleasant, for a medicine cat it was mainly herbs and studying. Today was nice in the perspective of change.
Glancing at Jaggedpaw she flicked her tail, "Thank you for coming out with me today, normally I'm couped up in the Medicine cats den itching to do something." She purred gratefully.
---
Oakwhisker chewed thoughtfully, flicking his ear in a gesture that he heard Cherrywish. "Hopefully she returns safely." He agreed, feeling the same nagging feeling. The amount of loner scent was alarming to him, one or two were fine and easy to chase off but with the condition of the clan they needed every paw the moment. "You should go out soon, the prey have been active. With the sun shining it's made for nice days." He replied, before finishing his vole. "But I also understand watching over camp while Maplestar is out." He added having realized she was probably restricted to camp at the moment.

Emberpaw followed after Jaggedpaw once he spotted a couple of good sunning rocks. Something she was heavily grateful for. Hearing his question she had the answer it was the reason she had requested the position in the first place. "I'm small." She said matter of factly. Something she accepted long ago. "I was always the smallest in the nursery, every play fight every race. I was the one losing." She explained settling down on the rock.
Grooming her fur a stroke of bitterness rose in her chest. "I always wanted too, wished for being a warrior. Hunting for my clan fighting for my clan." She murmured but quickly sighed. "My mother worried for me growing up, once she realised I had a knack for memorisation and smell she began suggesting the life of Medicine cat. Talked around. Before I knew it I was requesting the position, being given the position."
One Jaggedpaw had gotten closer she helped lick a couple patches on his back knowing his spikey fur would remained spiked so she focused in spots he couldn't reach. Absent mindedly letting her mind wander at the possibilities of her future.

Jagged paw had laid away from her, his focus on his left hind leg but after her words he rolled over to face her. He remained sorta on his back, paws lax on either side of his chest as he looked up at her. “I didn’t know that...” Jaggedpaw had admittedly never paid much mind to the nursery or the kits within it. He’d never noticed Emberkit’s struggles, having thought she picked her role cause it’s what she’d wanted.
He looked at her now and saw the bitterness in her face. His heart squeezed painfully, the thought of her unhappy and forced into a role just cause she thought herself weaker...
“Let me teach you, battle moves and such.” He meowed suddenly before he realized what he was saying. But once the idea had legs it was running in his mind and spilling out his mouth.
“All it takes is practice, I think that you could be good at anything Emberpaw.” He looked up at the sky, clouds drifted by and he lost himself further to the thought.
He could teach her in secret and if she liked it she could continue... if she actually improved...
“Rosepath is young still, I don’t think Maplestar would mind if you admitted the medicine cat role isn’t for you.” He looked at her again, hoping he wasn’t upsetting her with such talk. “Train and see if you really aren’t cut out for it.”
