Berryleap let out an amused chuckle at the younger tom, glancing to his sister who looked annoyed that her brother had interrupted their meal. The she-cat narrowed her eyes but continued eating, deciding arguing with him would only cause more of a nuisance. Berryleap lifted his head proudly at his win before turning his attention back to Honeywhisker "Oh, I know all too well Spiderstrike is all talk, she's got a good heart underneath that sharp tongue of hers." Berryleap, of course, was enjoying the idea of Spiderstrike making friends with the young guard, her making friends at all was a surprise let alone with the high energy naïve tom. The lanky tom licked his paw and ran it over his ear comfortably "I'm just grateful she's making friends. I was beginning to think no one would ever get to know past her rough exterior."

Just as I thought Skyflower thought to herself. "Congratulations you two." She purred. "I have no doubt your kits will be adorable." The bloodline would continue and hopefully keep going for years to come.
Duskstorm lifts his head feeling proud despite the nagging feeling tugging at his heart. He expected a little more though he wasn't sure what. "Thank you, I'm excited to meet and raise my future kits. Do you know if father is around?"
Skyflower lets out a small soft sigh. "He is out on a border patrol and should be back soon." She gave up trying to convince him to stay at the castle to rest.

Pinekit thought for a moment before calling down to Robinkit “You know Robinkit it might be best is if you give up on the race, I am just more used to climbing than you are.” He might have wanted to win the race but if his sister would be put in danger then it wasn’t worth it.

Mothwind's tail flicked back and forth. Adorable? Surely they should be 'fierce' or 'loyal'. Irritation prickled at her heart, but she ignored it and dipped her head. Really, she shouldn't be surprised that Blizzardstar had gone off on patrol. "Should we wait for him?" She'd let Duskstorm decide what he wanted to do for the time being. They had plenty of time to open contact with their respective targets.

(( blizzardsfang Sorry for the wait! I was busy for a few days and then missed the post while catching up with everything ToT )) "Huh, I suppose you would know." Honeywhisker replied thoughtfully but as innocently as ever, perhaps realizing that maybe it wasn't Berryleap that Spiderstrike had wanted to keep her kindness a secret from. Granted, He was still not entirely sure that wasn't a joke but at this point he didn't want to ask. However, a dopey smile soon crossed his face, almost skeptical of this 'rough exterior' that Spiderstrike apparently had. It wasn't that he doubted it so much as he simply hadn't caught it, he certainly didn't pick up on tones well. "I guess it helps I don't notice things like that." he admitted somewhat awkwardly but his attitude still as perky and unphased as ever, "If someone's nice to me, that's enough." The young ginger was, perhaps, simple but that really wasn't such a terrible thing, was it? "And I can say for sure that I had a nice time today thanks to Spiderstrike." He added with a proud little smile, genuine by all means. "I wasn't even that annoying, huh?" The tom asked, glancing back at his meal companion, not at all forgetting about her despite the unexpected additional company, his tail brushing against her with a playfulness to match his words.

"Let's go ahead and wait for him." Duskstorm suggested. He figured his father would be back any second now. "Let's go wait by the entrance. Mother, thank you for your time."
Skyflower waves her tail at him. "I have a feeling we will have a lot to talk about later." She gives them both a nod before heading up the stairs. She liked how formal Duskstorm was and she wished Moonfrost could be like him. Speaking of which, she needed to find the heir and continue their lessons.
"A true warrior never gives up!" Robinkit called out as she continues to climb after him. She didn't have a chance, but she still wanted to reach the top.

“But you not a warrior, your still a kit like me. Why do all my sisters have to do focused on tomorrow when it’s today?” Pinekit just made his way the rock as he said this. Once at the top he said, “Just try not to fall please, I would like all my sisters in one piece thank you. How else am I supposed to rub my win in your nose otherwise?”

Mothwind nodded a farewell to the queen before trotting after Duskstorm. Once they were well out of earshot, she flicked her tail. "I wonder how your father is faring, if he managed to drag himself out on a patrol. If he continues to, it might be a good thing for us if he struggles to keep up. No warrior would say anything out loud, of course, but they'd see. And know." And everyone knew gossip ran like wildfire in the castle.

"Ever since the commoner attacks, he has tried to show up more." Duskstorm said as he makes his way down the stairs. Most cats were still on edge and no one knew when the commoners would strike again. He reaches the main entrance and looks out to try and spot any signs of his father. He sits down on the cool ground deciding he might as well be comfy. After a few minutes, he decided to speak. "Just curious, do you have anyone in mind who might be persuaded to join our side?"
Robinkit tilts her head for a moment before climbing all the way to the top. She looks down to see Waterkit, Sparrowkit and their mother watching them. "Whoa we climbed up pretty high!"

As they settled in the grass, Mothwind took to grooming her fur. After their race, it'd gotten mussed. While she wouldn't consider herself to be a clean freak, she liked the repetition if things were calm. When Duskstorm asked about potential followers, she didn't answer right away. She'd thought about it, of course. She was not the type of cat to bring up anything, especially something as serious as the subject matter, without thinking it through.
"There's Mapleheart," Mothwind began and it was clear he was unimpressed with her first suggestion, but she shook her head and pressed on. "You'll need support from more than just the knights. The transfer of power should be as bloodless as possible, which means putting pressure on the king from all three ranks. No one is probably as exasperated with the king's refusal to rest than the herbalists.
"Spiderstrike is a practical she-cat. I doubt she'd be willing to show the king kindness if it does no cat any good in the long run. And if we can convince her, I'm sure she'll be able to convince Berryleap.
"Honeyburr has certainly been vocal about her dislike for weak leadership. If she hasn't thought of throwing Blizzardstar out already, it'd be easy to broach the subject."
Of course, Mothwind wouldn't have approached the cats she listed yet. Most of her speculation was from listening. Still, she was confident there were cats in all the ranks who would be willing to follow Duskstorm if given the opportunity. What mattered was that her mate wanted it.

(you're fine! I've been pretty busy lately)
Berryleap tilted his head slightly, his eyes narrowing in a thoughtful way as Honeywhisker spoke so blatantly at how easy it was to be his friend. Interesting though the eyes he received from his sister was enough to stop his thought process. Berryleap was a very selfish cat, and kind cats were easy to manipulate. Unfortunately Spiderstrike would always see right through her brother and it would seem she had grown a sort of friendship with the younger knight, friendship being used lightly as Berryleap couldn't find the word for it quite yet. Spiderstrike turned her gaze to Honeywhisker as he spoke to her and her eyes softened slightly, although not much. "No, I think you did quite well to stave off by headache so annoying would definitely not be the word I would use." She flicked her tail gently touching the tom with it in a friendly manner, growing more comfortable with him after the day they had spent together.

Honeywhisker / With Spiderstrike and Berryleap Being as dense as ever, Honeywhisker was blissfully unaware of any less than friendly thoughts that might have sprung to Berryleap's head, even more blind to the look Spiderstrike had shot her brother. After all, the thought of someone seeing him as someone to manipulate had hardly ever crossed the young warrior's mind. A case of his own ingrained innocence, but perhaps also born from the lack of self-worth that would remove thoughts that he could be useful to such a degree. He certainly had much to learn both as a warrior and as an individual, but he could take comfort in knowing he had a lot of time to learn as Spiderstrike had previously mentioned. Nevertheless, he looked positively delighted at Spiderstrike's comment, a purr rumbling cheerfully from his chest. He had no particular means to judge the truth behind that statement,certainly not having had a bad experience with the she-cat to judge from, but the young ginger was happy enough to feel as though he'd been pleasant company. "I sure hope I can continue to scare away those headaches, you know, unless you need a headache." he added with a playful lilt as he gazed brightly at the black she-cat.

Sagespirit-Infirmary Sagespirit had released a sigh and headed inside the space, he had heard his sister had delivered her kits and had been putting off actually going to see her, but he did end up on at least going to go and congratulate her, though he personally saw no point. Not spotting the she cat in the area he flicked his tail I'm mild annoyance, at the waste of time this detour had caused him, that could have been put on a patrol or some other activity that would be more useful then seeing his littermate.

(I have some cats open! One of the cats could be on patrol with Blizzardstar)
"I will keep those cats in mind." Duskstorm mewed. He could even try recruiting a few of the apprentices especially the younger ones. Swaying one of the priest or priestess could be very beneficial as well. Seemed most cats supported his fathers but he did hear a few whispers from certain cats who preferred his mother. If he became king, he would secretly make certain cats spies to root out any insubordination.
"No matter what babies will be babies." Dawn remarked with a small laugh. She liked how unfazed the mother was while her calf ran around doing whatever. "I think this is her third calf which explains while she doesn't care." Dawn didn't really know the cows very well only by the things on their ears and a few notable markings.

Amberleaf / Infirmary with Sagespirit
Having long since returned from his nap in the gardens, the ginger form of Amberleaf lay sprawled along one of the windowsills in the infirmary. If nothing else, it never hurt to actually look like he was fulfilling some aspect of his duty, if only by observing the place where such care was, well, carried out. That and from this position, the rays of the sun could still warm his pelt even from inside the castle. Even so, he was ever alert, though perhaps only subtly visible by the twitch of his ear every so often. Those self-same ears perked up suddenly with mild interest as he heard the paw steps of another entering the room, simple instinct to be aware of any injured that may come seeking aid, although he was equally aware that Herbalists came in and out all the time. However, he couldn't say the tortoiseshell form of Sagespirit looked as though he were about to keel over, not that he would ignore the tom on first appearances alone. As one of the Herbalists, it was practically part of his job to know all the cats of Sovereign clan to some degree, and he recognized the Royal guard as being one to overwork himself quite often which alone was enough to earn a certain extra caution whenever the tom made an appearance.
"Good morning, Sagespirit. You seem to be a regular bundle of cheer this morning." Amberleaf greeted, his tone playfully teasing in response to the hard-working cat's generally displeased demeanor at the moment, as he carefully leapt down to the floor to approach the cat. "Need something? Or perhaps you are looking for someone?" he added with a knowing gleam in his amber eyes, though he offered no further signs to betray his knowledge. Of course, he may have known Sagespirit's sister, Heathershade, supposedly had her kits but he had admittedly not been in the castle at the time. He doubted anyone would have wanted him on that sort of task anyways, far too important for such an unreliable Herbalist such as himself and all.

Tiger / Dawn at Paradise Farms "I'll certainly take your word for it." Tiger purred in amusement, having little to no personal experience with so much as kits, let alone babies large enough to end him with a step. Although he didn't fear the barn animals, nor think they intended harm in the off chance it did happen, there was something to be said for sensible wariness of creatures so large. That and of course the reality that it was simply unwise to stress the mouse-brained creatures, if only because Twolegs seemed to take more offense to it than the barn animals themselves. He'd certainly learned that lesson soon after arriving on the Farm. "I wonder if this one will be sticking around." He soon added with a thoughtful look, ever unaware of the machinations of twolegs. Although he could sometimes make out some semblance of words, he hardly understood what they meant a larger majority of the time and even fewer when it came to the other animals. However, he was aware that sometimes certain animals would be taken away while others remained, much like how twolegs would often seperate kits from their kittypet mothers. Of course, the cats seemed to be treated differently in that regard, simply allowed to mind their own business and all that so long as the farm animals weren't bothered in the process.

Sagespirit-Infirmary-Amberleaf Sagespirit turned his gaze to the approaching herbalist, observing the tom for a few beats before flicking his ear. "Morning, Amberleaf," he greeted. While he had no personal issues with the tom, not caring for the aspect of the herbalists blood, as Amberleaf had proven he was loyal to the clan, Sagespirit did have qualms with the tom's abilities. Ignoring the second part to the greeting, as it wasn't fairly new to him. Flicking his ear he released a sigh as he rolled his eyes.
"I came to see my sister, as I suppose it is needed for me to see her to congratulate her on her kits, but it seems that won't happen," he said flicking his tail. It was only out of volition of them being littermates that he felt he had to, but even them the tom struggled to truly find the energy to truly care, due to his own personal stance on mates. "But it's whatever, I'll see her when I see her."

Amberleaf / with Sagespirit in the Infirmary
Amberleaf had expect no better a greeting from the Royal guard, perhaps almost more amused by the rather predictable directness. Such was the way of the ever stern and stalwart warrior, but it was amusing in it's own way, sometimes the lack of active reactive engagement was just as funny. "Aw, and here I'd hoped you just came to see me, maybe take me on a romantic walk." The ginger tom stated in that playful tone before stretching his legs with the lightest pop of his joints. Maybe he was lazing about too much, he was getting all sorts of stiff and he was just far too young for that.
Nevertheless, his jokes faded as he actually straightened up to reply to the tom more seriously. "Oh yes, I'd heard Heathershade's kits had been born, I presume it went fairly well. Not that I was here for it, but news travels fast and all that." he replied, "Though, you don't seem the particularly thrilled uncle. Not that it's any of my business." The ginger added fairly nonchalantly, his interest in such rumors and gossip as unclear as ever. It was simply better to refrain from becoming too invested in such things beyond stirring the pot at his own expense. "At any rate, I assume you have plans? I've never known you to actually take it easy -- or was this all an elaborate scheme to come see me after all!?" his words devolved back into his normal playful dramatics, though he hardly expected anything to come of it. He didn't often engage in conversation with the warrior, but he hardly believed Sagespirit the type to put up with his nonsense for long.

Pinekit watched as his sister finally got to the top of the rock and just sat down. With a happy swish of his tail he said, “Yeah, it is awesome isn’t it. That is actually why I love to climb things so much, I just feel like all the little things that bother me are nothing up here.” Smirking he stood back up and walked over to her and asked, “So, you think you can get down on your own?”

Sagespirit-Infirmary-Amberleaf The tom flicked his tail in annoyance to the other's words. As if he would ever come for such a ridiculous reason! Why would he ever do such a thing for another cat, love and all that romance nonsense was just a waste of one's time, and all it served was a distraction from one's duties! "As if," he scoffed. "I'd be here for such reasons when badgers fly." Observing the tom stretch unimpressed, shouldn't the herbalist have something better to do than laze about? Turning his gaze briefly to observe others in the room listening to the other tom speak about his sister.
He gave a quiet scoff, while it was true, he wasn't very thrilled about his sister's kits, as the she cat was already away from her duties while she was expecting, and now was going to be away even longer till the balls of fur that were kits hit the age of 6 moons. His fur bristled and his gaze snapped back to the herbalist. "As I said, that would only be my reason the day badgers fly." While it was true that he wasn't up to anything yet, the tom was simply working to get up to heading out, with the rule of not being able to go out alone meant he would need to find another guard or knight to head out with, maybe even taking out a squire to get a young cat some training in. Sagespirit was finding it difficult to hold his tongue with Amberleaf's remarks.

Amberleaf • Tom • HerbalistLocation: Infirmary with SagespiritEmber34 Despite the fury of the other tom Amberleaf seemed unphased, his eyes glimmering with mischief, undoubtedly deeply amused in his own way by how easy the Royal Guard was to rile up over so simple a comment. Any cat with half a brain could tell the ginger was fooling around, and whereas he assumed Sagespirit had the sense to know, the anger he displayed was certainly hard not to poke fun at if not moreso because of the thought the older cat was so infuriated by obvious jokes. Amberleaf hardly bothered with friendship among his clanmates, let alone the complexities of a romantic one. When badgers flew indeed.
"Oh, unruffle your fur, you ol' brute. You know I'm teasing." he retorted with a soft chuckle, turning away with an aimless intent, but he looked back with a playful smirk "It'd be the day badger's fly before anyone came looking for me in general, let alone you, grumpy fur." Amberleaf could surely do with having some more respect for cats of superior rank, having formed something of a reputation for being loose tongued regardless of rank, although perhaps that in itself was a farce. To be loose-tongued would imply he actual offered any glimpse of his deeper thoughts and it was far easier to provide for his clanmates someone to find unpleasant and easy to avoid... and perhaps all the better for himself to remain as unassuming and unneeded as possible.
"You can't be too hard on me, though, I'm just so tragically and utterly bored. Oh woe is poor Amberleaf, wasting away uselessly among far superior Herbalists." His tone was dramatic, paying no mind to the looks those around were probably giving at this point. After all, the herbalists on site would have seen his nonsense fairly frequently. Most hardly bothered to pay attention anymore which was fair enough, even this only made it easier to fall off the radar so to speak. "But anyway, I'm sure I've bothered you enough. One of the other herbalists can tell you where Heathershade is unless that is no longer your objective, I wont keep you regardless." he stated coolly as he began padding towards the exit himself. Perhaps a walk was in order, a quick trip off castle grounds might be a nice change of pace, he doubted he'd run into any resistance along the way after all.

Mothwind's tail flicked. "Any cat come to mind now that I've listed a couple?" While the two were friends, they didn't spend every waking moment together, thank the stars. Mothwind wasn't sure if she'd be able to handle that. But it also meant they saw different cats in different ways. Maybe he'd have some suggestions of his own now that they were giving it some serious thought.
[unsure how long you want this interaction to go on for or if we want to move to something else? i imagine they can still tell Blizzardstar, but after that we'll probably need to bring in other cats into the fold and I'm not sure if there's anybody ready for it just yet as i don't where everyone is o-o

"Oh by far, as long as you don't mind getting hurt when you hit the ground." Pinekit said with a slight smirk. Looking over the edge he said, "No shame if you want some help sis, you don't climb things as I do so it makes sense to need some help."
