Roll says... 3: Crowcloud.
You wait until there's a pause in their movements and conversations to shout, "Hey, mom!"
Crowcloud looks up, smiling instantly upon recognizing you. Your mother is a pretty cat - jet black with soft fur and a gentle face, intelligent and brilliant orange eyes, and lucky enough to have no noticeable scars to distract from her overall appearance. She's not much taller than you, and has always been a little plump, even after having you. She's always had the talent of soothing tense situations, which makes her a valuable asset in communications between the Clans. You've always been rather proud that your mother is popular even among outsiders for that reason.
You trot up, tail high in the air, and greet her with a head bump and a purr.
"How was your first day?" she asks. "I didn't get a chance to ask."
"I caught a fish," you reply, smugly. You can feel Applefoot's eyeroll.
"That's wonderful." She purrs as well. "Are you and Applefoot coming to train?"
Your mentor begins to say something sarcastic, but is interrupted by Rowanpaw flying backwards into Knotpaw and sending her to the ground. Hailfang strolls up, looking unimpressed.
"You'll have to do better than that, Rowanpaw," he says. The apprentice struggles to his feet, looking thoroughly exhausted.
"I think I did pretty well." He coughs, and looks over at Knotpaw, who's decided to just stay on the ground for a bit. "Sorry about that."
Knotpaw groans in reply.
"You do excellently until you get cocky." Hailfang sits down, tail curling neatly over his feet. "The minute you become over-confident, your skills drop dramatically. It's very apparent."
Rowanpaw doesn't say anything, just shakes the sand off of him. He apparently notices you for the first time, and breathlessly says, "Oh, hey, Rookpaw. When did you get here?"
"Just now," says Applefoot. "She needs to get some fighting practice in."
Hailfang nods. "We'll clear out a spot for you."
The cats pair off again, leaving you and Applefoot to yourselves. She doesn't look very interested in doing anything right now, so you guess you'll have to decide what to do.
Suggest a dodge fight.
Suggest learning fighting moves.
