Prompt: With the camp calm, Nightwind found herself sunbathing next to the cliff face, laying on her side to let her dark fur soak up the warmth of the sun in the chilling leaf fall. The morning patrol had just come back and she’d just returned herself from hunting patrol with more than was expected at this time. It left time for much of the clan to rest before the struggles of bare leaf hit them.
“Lazying about this early Nightwind?” A voice asked, causing the molly to open her than closed eyes to the dark-colored tom before her.
“Have to take advantage of it before I can’t anymore. It’s a sunny day, plenty of prey, and much of the preparation for leaf-bare has already been done.” Nightwind responded, lifting her head to the tom. “Besides Kestrelstar on such a fine day like today, it’s best to use it all up after working the morning away.”
The brown tom did nothing but laugh at first, at the older molly’s words, knowing that there was some truth to her words. The medicine cat was busy with there apprentice getting the last of the herbs, the apprentices were busy cleaning today, and the patrols had already returned leaving time before the later ones would go out.
“Alright, I see your point then, I guess there isn’t any harm in it when we have the time,” Kestrelstar replied, at last, moving to lay on the other side of the molly with his back to the cliff facing the sun.
“Exactly you never know when these good days will go away.” Feeling the brush of the toms fur as he laid next to her, Nightwind laid her head back on her paws while closing her eyes, content the soak the suns rays in while they could.
