(Lol I saw that!) Shadecreek - In the medicine cats’ den - DarkWordlessly, Shadecreek nodded and slipped quietly into his nest. The poppy seeds he was given earlier was finally kicking into effect and the black tom curled up to sleep. He was still plagued with worries of his clan’s future. He was convinced at this point that Thistlestar was trying to destroy the clan she had StarClan blessing to lead. How could they allow her to continue on with this? |

(My kittens' reactions in a nutshell:
Weaselflare: Imma keep clawing at the ground and pretend it's Thistlestar.
Darkwhisper: Meh. Just wait for her to die, everyone.
Wolfpaw: Oh shit, is Starclan evil?!
Stoatpaw: Go choke on your freshkill, Loserstar!)

( Dark I may have Shadecreek insist that he needs to go on a walk to clear his head from the Thistlestar nonsense when he wakes up. Could be a chance to meet someone for the first time I don’t know  ) |

Shadecreek - In the Medicine Cats’ Den - DarkAs quickly he had fallen asleep, he was quick to wake up. At least it felt that way, he had no idea how much time had passed. Despite the bouts of rest he had today, he didn’t feel at all rested. With a huff of frustration, he stood up to leave. His wounds had closed up somewhat and he had long stopped bleeding, surely a walk out of camp will wear him out enough to sleep tonight? As quietly as he could, he made for the den’s exit, hoping not to disturb Hollyfeather as she worked.

Shadecreek - In the Medicine Cats’ Den - DarkShadecreek froze, caught out. “Look I’m sorry but I’m tired and Thistlestar has me all wound up. I’m just going for a walk to clear my head and tire me out. I won’t stray far from camp.”

Mintpaw-Medicine Cat Den-Frecklecloud
"I'll try harder next time Frecklecloud," he said looking at his mentor, a small yawn escaping him, he hadn't heard much of the meeting having passed out before being able to try make attempts to go. "I'm sorry if I let you down..." His ears pulled back as he turned his gaze to his blurry paws.

Brambletalon - In Clan Meeting w/everyone
Thislestar did it. She actually did it. Brambletalon watched in shock an aww as Thistlestar presented a rebuttle. A chill rolled down his spin from her icy tone and he pulled Icepaw a little closer as she shuttered in fright. After Thistlestar finished tearing some of the cats a new tail, he then watched unsurprised as a few of them left the meeting not giving a care in the world for anything else she had to say. Despite agreeing with his clan mates on the matters currently at hand, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for their leader. He honestly wondered if there was something that was driving her the direction she was going. Is it really just her personal ideals driving her decisions? Or was it maybe something else? His mind pondered a few different thoughts and then he realized something. Aside from Thistlestar's brother and maybe Shatterfrost or Cedarstorm, does anyone even personally know her that well? His curiosity couldn't help, but wonder what would happen after the meeting was at an end. Regardless of his feelings towards his leader, she probably would feel more alone than anything after this. He couldn't even imagine what it'd be like in her position to find out that almost none of yours cats trusted or respected you. Things would only get worse after this and even if Thistlestar learned to change her ways, theres too much damage thats been done and in need of repair. Swiftclaw - In Clan Meeting w/everyone Swiftclaw watched in shock as Thistlestar furiously yowled out her responses to everyone. Is t his it? After today, is everything just gonna fall apart? His mind wondered in worry for the future of his clan. Part of him started to regret he ever set foot here in the first place, all to steal a piece of fresh kill because he was hungry and lost. He even began to question why Thistlestar was even kind enough to let him into the clan regardless of him just being a kit. He worried at the thought of what would have happened to him had Brambletalon not been there to speak on his behalf and take him in. Icepaw - In a Clan Meeting w/everyone Icepaw's heart raced and even though she was almost a warrior, she felt as if she was just a lonely kit again. All she wanted right now was the warmth of her mother. The mother she never even really got to know. Her bodied shrank as she pressed herself into her father's pelt taking in his warmth and scent. All she ever wanted was to make friends and try to help others in need, but now it felt as if a war was going on. A war in which she felt powerless to help anyone around her. At that moment a thought crossed her mind. Would Thistlesstar make an insult or example out of me when I recieve my warrior name? Would I maybe even be made a warrior early? I don't even feel ready right now. What will she do to me if I disappoint her? |

(Just for the record, I got on and immediately started giggling at all the backlash and angry title cards on everyone's characters hahaha you all didn't disappoint 
Poor Icepaw, just a baby  And Brambletalon is being such a peacemaker <3
Also, I just wrote out this reply and kinda ran with it... I am wanting to do this bc I think Thistlestar naturally would want to punish and make a show of those who walked out just now instead of just letting it go, so I think it would do well to raise tensions and drama. But if you guys are super upset by this, I'll retcon it  Of course, Mintpaw/Freckecloud and Shadecreek/Pebblepaw can still interact in defiance bc they each formed important bonds.
I'm going to be writing replies/reactions for my other cats, once more, let me know if I need to change the punishment. ) Thistlestar Speaking Stone, thinking she rules the world and Starclan
With everyone who didn't turn their backs just now lol
Specifically speaking to Shatterfrost, Dark and Dapplesky ; Mentioning Mintpaw, Ember34 ;
Frecklecloud moonclaw400 ; Pebblepaw ; and Shadecreek Junospower or at least she thought so because she's egotistical and insane.
She flexed her claws, quite pleased by this punishment. "Finally, as I was saying ,there were things we could have done to be better prepared for an attack such as that. Surely by now you all have realized how important battle training is. I want all mentors to make sure to review battle moves with their trainees every day, and cats who have no apprentices should practice battling among each other daily as well." She flicked her tail, thinking of Mintpaw. The young apprentice probably would have faired better if he had been practicing as he was supposed to- she could tell he was lagging behind when he couldn't produce a smoke wall, all the other apprentices could do that and more she thought, completely ignoring the fact he was two moons behind any of them and literally physiologically incapable. She hoped the reassignment would serve him better. "Continue training, for once we are better prepared, we will launch another attack on Willowclan." She curled her tail, obviously pleased with her plan, and prepared to jump off the speaking stone. "You are dismissed." She mewed.

Frecklecloud tried to keep the growing anger within her down when she heard the words, ears pinned back"Ivyclan will die under her leadership"she muttered to Hollyfeather and Shadecreek"...and there is no word from Starclan on this Hollyfeather? Surely you or Cedarstorm would have heard something!"

 Open Waspfang watched the proceedings, feeling little surprise over how the meeting had gone. He had expected some backlash to Mintpaw and Stoatpaw's involvement, but was pleased that Stoatpaw and he was doing well enough to avoid any reassignments. He could also sense the growing unrest in the crowd, but felt ambivalent about it- whether Thistlestar succeeded in gaining their loyalty or not, it was all a moot point to him. He would follow whoever his leader was, regardless of his own personal connections to them.
 Dapplesky froze, feeling all the blood drain from her face. Thistlestar had reassigned Mintpaw to her? She couldn't help but feel as though she was being punished as well- this only meant that Thistlestar would be watching her more than ever, forcing her to train Mintpaw and send him into battles in which he wasn't prepared, and punishing her when he didn't meet expectations due to his size and age. She stared around wildly, realizing not only that, but this would possibly make her an enemy to Frecklecloud and Foxskip alike. I don't want to be his mentor! She wanted to scream. I'm barely a warrior!
 Patchpaw In Camp, then heading to the Medicine Den Open, heading towards Shadecreek and Frecklecloud Patchpaw watched, incredulous, as his leader flippantly reassigned mentors. Pebblepaw would no longer be training under Shadecreek? He flicked his eyes to Shatterfrost, a shiver running down his spine. The tomcat wasn't necessarily a bad choice for mentor, but Patchpaw knew his brother's personality. Shadecreek had perhaps been the best choice for him to train under, what with his patience and good nature. Shatterfrost... might not would have so much patience. Plus, it seemed as though Pebblepaw had finally started to warm up to Shadecreek. Where are you, brother? So much is happening... Patchpaw then watched as his mother, Frecklecloud, left. She too was losing her apprentice. Did she even know? Patchpaw waited until the meeting was dismissed, then shot towards the medicine cat den, determined to share the news with the two warriors before Thistlestar did so that she wouldn't get the satisfaction.

Mintpaw-Medicine Cat Den-Frecklecloud
Mintpaw sprang up, wincing in pain and collapsing. "I don't want a new mentor, " he whimpered. "Frecklecloud I'm sorry! Please don't let her make me have a new mentor!" The young kit was close to tears, he adored training under Frecklecloud, even if he wasn't always paying attention. He knew next to nothing about Dapplesky and was terrified that she was going to be like Thistlestar.
Ebonywhisker-Camp-Clan
Ebonywhisker scoffed and left the gathered cats. She was getting tired of Thistlestar and her holier than thou behavior. There was no way Starclan was agreeing with how she was running things. They could have been sending signs but that she cat was just to full of herself to actually notice. Her tail lashing as she settled back in the elder's den.

( bluewonder as paranoid as Thistlestar is, I think it would be more fitting if this was at least a temporary reassignment? Like maybe the other apprentices aren’t progressing properly with out their old mentors? Totally not because I formed an emotional attachment to Pebblepaw what who said that) |

Shatterfrost- At clan meetingShatterfrost dipped his head at his leader's words and thought about the reassignment of Frecklecloud's and Shadecreek's apprentices. He thought about Pebblepaw- who would be his apprentice from now on- and flicked his tail. He knew he could handle Shadecreek's old apprentice, but was this really the right thing to do? The tom didn't question his leader, though, and just sat there listening until she called the meeting to an end. Hollyfeather w/ Frecklecloud- moonclaw400In response to the molly, Hollyfeather shook her head solemnly. "Unfortunately I haven't, though I'm not surprised. It's not like Thistlestar killed a cat and hid the blood that was on her paws," she sighed. Looking over her shoulder at Frecklecloud, she added, "Maybe you could join Dapplesky in her training sessions with Mintpaw. I don't see anything wrong with that." Oatstream w/ Lizardeye- bluewonderGiving a soft lick to Lizardeye's cheek, he sighed. "It's not like we can stop it either, Thistlestar would never listen to a bunch of silly old elders," he muttered close to her ear. He glanced at Dapplesky. "And Dapplesky doesn't seem too fond of this punishment, either."

Stoatpaw - Medicine Den - with Mintpaw and Frecklecloud (Ember34 , moonclaw400 )As soon as Thistlestar dismissed them Stoatpaw padded back to the medicine den. "Great StarClan, who made dirt on her freshkill today?" she snorted as she entered, swishing her tail. Her anger faded a little when she looked to Mintpaw but flared up again when he pleaded with Frecklewish to not let Thistlestar let him have a new mentor. He had already been upset before and now their leader had made it even worse by making him train with someone else. Stoatpaw let out a small sigh and settled down next to her littermate. She was clearly still angry at Thistlestar but tried to hold it back for now, not wanting to scare him. "I've seen Dapplesky with some others a few times," she meowed carefully. "She seems really nice." She gave him and Frecklecloud a weak smile and added "Frecklewish is still the better mentor though." She lowered her voice a little and turned to said warrior. "Can't you still train with him? In secret, I mean? We wouldn't tell anyone!"

"I'll ask Dapplesky if I can work with her and Mintpaw. If anything, I can at least make the transition easier, but I don't want Mintpaw punished further for my actions"she said, pulling the young tom close to comfort him. Her gaze turned to Patchpaw"I know dear, we heard her"She said, pressing her nose to her kit's forehead

Junospower - would be more than willing to have it be a temporary thing. 1 moon, then she re-evaluates? Or is that too long too? Should I change it to they have to have another warrior with them at all times while they're training?
Edit: Just reread your post and I understand it better lol sorry. Yeah, I think it would make a lot of sense if the apprentices didn't progress as well without their mentors, bc Mintpaw loves Frecklecloud and Pebblepaw was finally starting to feel understood, so both I think will be resentful and not perform as well, and maybe if a deputy like Shatterfrost reported that to Thistlestar and pushed her a lil bit, she'd have to reinstate them. We can roll with that idea if you'd like! )
