It was a languorous day in the decaying city.
The sun rested at its peak in the sky, sending spots of light dancing through the holes in Feliguard’s walls. Ferns clinging to its rusting buildings waved their fronds cheerily, bugs hummed in the noon’s warmth.
And Truffle was hiding his tail between his legs, waiting to be called on.
The city’s de-facto leader, Mischief, had recently exiled a fair number of cats over a dispute over the idea of trade deals with Verdevarians, and the city was struggling to support itself as a result. It seemed a bit extreme to Truffle, but he guessed Mischief knew what she was doing, so he didn’t have much cause to ponder it. Dusk, an intimidatingly brash kencat and the unofficial head of hunting affairs, was assigning small groups of cats to stock up on prey. It was really supposed to be a voluntary job, but with so few paws on deck at the moment, Dusk thought it better to assign it to anyone available. And that meant…
“Truffle. You’re out the Eastern port, solo hunting. I don’t expect you to catch a mammoth, but for the love of the stars, attempt pull your weight for once.” Ouch.
Truffle was about to make an ill-considered retort, but was interrupted by the wiry ginger cat next to him. Crocosmia’s tail practically jumped on its own, sticking straight up and quivering slightly.
“Prr-Dusk! You shouldn’t send Truffle out on his own, he’ll only spend the whole time looking for mushrooms instead!”
Truffle shot Crosmomia a look of resentment, but the latter’s eyes were closed in self-satisfaction. They both knew Dusk deplored cats who preferred to gather over hunting, viewing it as a cop-out.
Dusk paused for a beat, then nodded his chin towards Crocosmia. “Go with him to keep him in check, then, and ensure he spends his patrol looking for actual prey.”
Crocosmia shifted their weight from foot to foot, subtly kneading the peat beneath their paws. They nodded back, and Dusk swished his tail, dismissing the both of them, going back to assigning the last few stragglers.
Crocosmia looked to Truffle. “Well, on then. I want to be back before nightfall.” They raised a paw to shoo him forward.
Turning heel, Truffle let out a little huff. He was constantly shocked at what Crocosmia would do for some brownie points, especially given Dusk absolutely couldn’t care if they lived or died — he was just happy to have someone to comply with his bossiness. And Cos played into it every time… especially when it came to Truffle. What did they have against him, anyways?
There was a cat lounging just inside the port, grooming her paws. She glanced lazily up at them as they approached, and asked for their names — “for record.” They gave them, and she let them pass, reabsorbing herself in her task.
Stepping out of Feliguard, Truffle felt it in every part of him. The ground was damp and spongy beneath his feet, the sound of ruffling leaves flooded his ears, the silty scent of creekwater danced on his tongue. Free of Feliguard’s strong walls, he felt a breeze card through his fur. It took an effort to start walking from there, to not just stand still and feel the forest’s sensations coarse through him. But he thought better than to give Crocosmia reason to complain about him later to Dusk.
Cos themself didn’t seem bothered in the slightest, still warm with the feeling of being praised (if only in comparison to Truffle).
“So, what should we be hunting? Fish is the easy answer, but I don’t fancy getting too wet today…”
Truffle cocked his head. “Not irk?”
They shook their head. “The irk have been tasting strange lately, Prr-Mischief put a hold on bringing any into the city until that’s figured out.” Haven’t you been paying attention? went politely unspoken, likely due to their good mood, but Truffle still felt it in their tone.
“Well…” Truffle paused to think. “I guess we just hope we get lucky and find something big on the ground, otherwise I do think it’s best to fish.”
…plus, the further the two walked, maybe Truffle could find a patch of God’s Paw to come back and get later. They’d been getting sparser and sparser lately.
