cats attending: stoneburr, foxtrot, snowpetal, yewberry, quailjaw, coypond, daisypaw, wrenpaw

Stoneburr - wise one - 91 moons - male - tags; foxtrot, open

The last thing Stoneburr had expected as the chatter of the upcoming gathering rippled throughout the caves was that he'd be trotting ahead of the younger group, leading them into the field. He'd been happy to sit idly in the back of the caves as the members of their seemingly still scattered clan conversed over past gatherings and strangers turned friends. Then, as worries began to float around over who would be acting leaders, Stoneburr's ever wonderful mate had spoken up with the biggest grin to volunteer the two. So here he was, frowning beside his skipping mate as the youngsters dispersed into the crowd of strangers.

Foxtrot - wise one - 89 moons - male - tags; stoneburr, open

Foxtrot couldn't help but to laugh at the sneer upon his mate's face as the two made themselves comfortable to the side of the gathering cats, he'd known the reaction he would receive from the steely tom the moment he'd stood to volunteer the two as acting "leaders" for the gathering group. Perhaps Foxtrot had done so for his own amusement, but he knew they could both use the time away from the fractures of their home and the lost friends that plagued each empty corner of the caves. With a small sigh, the ginger tom let his shoulders droop and heavy body lean against his mate's darker pelt, it seemed no matter where the two went or what was going on around them, Foxtrot could always find comfort beside the older tom.

Snowpetal - healer - 26 moons - female - tags; ceriseberry [keyclan]
The white molly's light gaze caught sight of an approaching red-furred feline, and upon the she-cat reaching her, Snowpetal could guess she too was a healer. A small touch of a smile appeared on Snowpetal's face as her shoulders relaxed slightly beneath her white coat, feeling somewhat relieved to have a companion who would understand even a small part of the life they lead as healers. "Snowpetal, I'm a healer of Moonclan. It's nice to meet you, Ceriseberry". Snowpetal purred in her greeting, happy to have seemingly made a new acquaintance.

Yewberry - warrior - 34 moons - male - tags; cobrashade [chaosclan]

The light grey & white tom was excited, noticeable by the twitching of his tail, as he split from his brother's side and began weaving his way through the crowded clearing. He wasn't so sure what exactly it was he was seeking, but Yewberry found his paws tended to have a mind of their own and he'd simply take with stride wherever it was he ended up. It seemed, this time, to lead him in the direction of a younger-seeming tom with a sharp gaze, drawing Yewberry in closer with a mild curiosity. "Hello there!" The warrior was quick to approach, smile kind and bright as he trotted towards the steely tom. As Yewberry's brother would always say; he wasn't very good at reading certain situations. "I'm Yewberry, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Quailjaw - warrior - 34 moons - male - tags; shoreabranch [cascadeclan]
The tabby warrior definitely wasn't expecting to enjoy the gathering as much as he found himself enjoying it now, seated beside a new companion with a constant smile and laughter shared, it was definitely shaping up to be a favourite of his. Quailjaw couldn't contain the rumble of amusement as Shoreabranch spoke of her encounter, head shaking in humoured disbelief. "Well, I'm certainly glad to be of better company than a tail-eating quail." Quailjaw couldn't help but to lean closer to the grey & white molly, amusement lacing his tone and twitching his whiskers "Though I must say, you're quite the brave feline; taking on such a mighty foe, I'm truly impressed".

Coypond - hunter - 26 moons - female - tags; yewclaw [pinewatch]
Coypond could barely hide the small smile at the sound of the tom's soft laughter, it seemed she'd already acomplished what she was hoping to. The molly couldn't help to feel a little pride in herself eachtime she drew a smile or laugh from the more "stoney" of felines, given why she seemed to have a pretty decent relationship with Stoneburr. Coypond sounded a small hum in acknowledgement at the grey tom's reasoning, though the she-cat had felt the same her first gathering, she found it wasn't too different from back in caves. "Oh, I'm Coypond, hunter of Moonclan. A pleasure to meet you, Yewclaw." The smile stayed on the molly's face as she came to settle beside the scarred tom, finding she wouldn't mind a space beside him for the remainder of the gathering. "If you don't mind my asking; why come to the gathering if you do not like it?"

Daisypaw - to be warrior - 12 moons - female - tags; mintpaw [duckclan]
The soon to be warrior had found herself striding through groups of strangers and mingling around in bits of conversations as she split from her brother's side, finding comfort in going forward on her own. Soon she found her eyes trailing another young to-be as they walked about the gathering, though appearing much more the frightened type than most of the other felines around them. Daisypaw continued to watch the younger she-cat closely as she sat to the side, eyes growing ever softer at the look of hoplelessness grasping the poor thing. With a sigh, the to-be dragged herself up and started towards the younger, thick tail waving to draw her attention. "You certainly seem a little lost here. I'm Daisypaw, who might you be?"

Wrenpaw - to be hunter - 12 moons - male - tags; open
text

[DadjokeNess]

Cocoaclan

Pizzastar - Leader - Orange and white molly who is very large and elegant - She/Her
->Birchflame (Highgarden)

Pizzastar grinned mischievously as she saw the big tom settling at the edge of the leader's clearing. Still smiling, she strutted forward to sit by him.
"Howdy! I'm Pizzastar from Cocoaclan, who are you?" she purred. "It sure is a lovely gathering we've got going on today!"

Maplesyrup - Warrior - Brown (Genetically black) tabby shorthair with green eyes - He/Him
->open to warriors

Maplesyrup bounced eagerly into the crowd, letting the flow of cats carry him around as he indulged in the smells around him. It was lovely to enjoy all the unique scents, from the cats that smelled like oceans and pine forests, to the cats that smelled like mountain rain, to the cats that smelled tangy and metallic or like the thunderpath. It was lovely!
He bounded forward, looking for a great place to talk to new friends, eventually settling under a tree. Sitting on one of the jutting roots, he grinned at the crowd and waited for someone to come talk to him.

Keylime - Warrior - longhaired polycaudal mackerel blue tabby lykoi with green eyes - he/him
-> Here for Morasspounce (Sloughclan) and Crécerelleflight (Chessclan)

Keylime relaxed at the presence of the other two. Glad they'd remembered him so fondly, he smiled softly. "Sorry I missed the past few gatherings! I didn't have a chance to leave recently, my kits became apprentices, then there was an accident where another kit lost her leg, and then our writer had executive disfunction we just couldn't make the journey due to the weather." He faltered a bit with the show of affection, letting out a little squeak of happiness that someone would show him such love. "Uh, how have you guys been?" He said, nuzzling the other two back gently with his nose.

Tealeaf - Medicine Cat - Brown and white tabby longhair - she/her
->Wolfwhiskers (Chessclan)

Tealeaf considered the tom with interest. He seemed nice enough. "Greetings, I am Tealeaf, medicine cat of Cocoaclan. Please, sit next to me, it would be lovely to talk with you."
She smiled up at him invitingly, hoping he'd sit so she wouldn't have to keep craning her neck. She was quite comfortable and didn't want to stand up right yet.

Pepperpaw - Med Apprentice - shorthaired black tortoiseshell mackerel tabby missing her right leg - She / Her - 11 moons
->Penstemonpaw (Pineclan)

Pepperpaw stood immediately, leading the other apprentice until they reached a quiet, shady spot where some roots made a little cave, perfectly sized for two young cats. "Here we go!" she declared happily. "It's nice and quiet here! I'm still a new apprentice, since I lost my leg 'fore our ceremony, so I got really good at finding little nooks where no one else will bother me!"

---

Pillar Clan

Starearth - Leader - a fawn mackerel tabby with green eyes and scars - he/him
->open for other leaders

Starearth, reassured finally that no one from his old clan would be at these gatherings, slid into the crowd with barely concealed unease. He knew it was good to make allies, and young Barkbrush had pleaded for a chance to come back and see the molly they'd fallen for again, but the crowd always felt threatening. Starearth slunk forward until he reached the edge of where the leaders and deputies gathered, and he settled himself in the shade to watch the others and see who wished to talk.

Barkbrush - Warrior - a mediumhair chocolate spotted tabby with low white, a face burn and two scars - They / Them
-> Here for Mourningdove (Viridian Court)

Relief washed over them as they realized Mourning was looking for them! Not anyone else! Barkbrush almost barked in joy, swallowing the noise of surprise they were about to make. Instead, a surprised purr came out, growing deeper when Mourning nuzzled their face.
"I just, missed you a lot, and I...uh...." Barkbrush faltered a bit, then swallowed deeply. Starearth had told them to have courage, so they were gonna try. "I uh, really like you a lot! I only come to gatherings to see you now, and I was worried you'd like someone else..." They felt nervousness flood over them again, and instead fell off into a silly purr, hoping their deep red blushing wouldn't show too obviously on their scars.

Henfeather - Warrior - Tortoiseshell - She/Her
Snowdrop - Queen - a white shorthair with blind amber eyes - She/Her
-> Here on a DATE
-> Coco ( Duckclan)

Snowdrop nodded for the other molly to sit. "It's a pleasure to meet you. We're from Pillar Clan, where our trees are so large that you can fit an entire clan underneath one and no twolegger would ever find them!"
Henfeather relaxed slightly at the warmth of Coco. "Our trees are so tall, they reach almost to Starclan! Not that Snowy here does much climbing."
Snowdrop grinned. "I'm blind, so I wouldn't be able to see where I'm going that well. But that's enough about us, tell us about yourself! You smell delightful, if I do say so myself."

ooc: Feel free to interact with any of my cats!
ＳＨＯＲＥＣＬＡＮ
────── ★ SPIRITUAL BEACON ★ ──────
ATTENDENCE: Blizzardhowl, Redflame, Sugarbreeze, Oysterpaw, Forestpaw, Baytuft and Hayblast

Blizzardhowl | 16m | ♀ | Shoreclan Heir | Tags: Open, with deputies
Her first job as the heir of the clan has become leading a group to the gatherings. Her father had avoided them for the past couple of moons due to the harsh rogue attacks. She felt honored, and a bit nervous, to be interacting with the deputies of other clans. Her father told her to go right up to the leader rock, however, she didn't feel as prestige as them. She wandered her way to the deputies, trying to put on her air of confidence. She didn't crack a smile, she kept a shadow of seriousness around her as she passed a few cats. She settled on a spot to relax and sit, eavesdropping on the surrounding conversations.





Redflame | 40m | ♂ | Healer | Tags: Open, with the Medicine Cats
Redflame hadn't came to a gathering with Shoreclan since he joined. He had either been too busy or another healer took his place there. Despite being the third qualified medicine cat of the clan, there was always something to gather of a cat needing attention. It was almost a relaxing escape to come to this gathering, instead of worrying about the next attack on their cats.





Sugarbreeze | 34m | ♀ | Hunter | Tags: Mushroomforest of Viridian Court, Forestpaw, Oysterpaw
The calico she-cat searched the clearing for her old mate, looking out for their familiar brown pelt. She spotted them quickly, whispering to her son quickly. "Stay close by me, Oyster." She ordered, keeping her tail touching his side so he doesn't get lost in the crowd. She didn't pay much attention to Forestpaw, worried more about her other son. As she approached the cat, she sighed. "Uh, Mushroomforest! I've been trying to find you... Do you have time to talk? It's very important." She questioned, holding back any introductions for the moment. She had avoided letting Mushroomforest meet their sons, thinking that it was better for the apprentices if they didn't get attached to a father figure. However, she was starting to regret that decision.





Oysterpaw | 8m | ♂ | Hunter Trainee | Tags: Sugarbreeze, Forestpaw, Mushroomforest of Viridian Court
Oysterpaw followed his mother quickly, following the feeling of her tail on his side. He listened as she spoke to Mushroomforest. He remembered the name mentioned before, probably while he eavesdropped on his mother's conversations with his aunts. He knew what today was about... He knew his mother's intentions. Oysterpaw wasn't sure if his brother was aware of what Sugarbreeze planned, but he was too scared to say goodbye to his brother anyways.



Forestpaw | 8m | ♂ | Hunter Trainee | Tags: Pluvierpetal
Forestpaw was tired of having to deal with the idea of another parent, he slipped away from the conversation before his mother could notice him. He soon got bumped into by another tom. With a loud sigh, he stared him down. However, as Forestpaw listened for a moment, Pluvierpetal's demeanor soothed some of Forestpaw's tense feelings. "I'm Forestpaw..." He stated quickly. "You do anything interesting at the gatherings?" He questioned, wanting to distract himself.

Hayblast | 53m | ♀ | Guardian | Tags: Open
The orange tabby sees a large tom make his way over towards her. She sits happily, her tail twitching with anticipation. "G-Greetings haaandsome, uh, cat?" She stayed, an awkward smile on her face. 'Perfection. Any cat would want this.' She smirked weirdly, introducing herself. "I'm Hayblast. More like, Heyyyyy there Blasty, amiright?" She grinned wide.

Baytuft | 39m | ♂ | Hunter | Tags: Oriolewind, Silver Smoke of Dying Flame
The blue-gray tom felt his boredom being lifted as the pair of younger cats approached him. He found t h e m... a bit interesting. He smiled politely, dipping his head. "Very glad to meet the both of you. My name is Baytuft, I often go by Bay. I came to the gathering from Shoreclan, the best clan in my opinion. I'm probably biased." He joked lightly with a little chuckle, his dry humor probably coming off as boring and lame.

[chaotic creativity]

CHESSCLAN !!
ROOKSTAR | Roi | Tom | 52 moons | Tagged: Minkstar (PineClan)


PineClan was familiar enough, a well known Clan throughout the Gathering, but he hadn’t had the opportunity to speak to any cat claiming them as their home. “Pleasure to meet you, Minkstar,” he purred formally, his ear flicking away an annoying mosquito. “Prey is running just fine considering just how many patrols we have to send out to keep all the cats fed,” he chuckled, knowing many Cavalier were exhausted. He had commanded they hunt outside their borders, in unclaimed territory, so as not to over-hunt their territory. It may have been vast, but he wanted it to last. “How is prey running in PineClan? I’ve heard you’re a rather large Clan as well,” he meowed, lifting a paw to smooth the ruffled fur around his ears.


CHASMSTAR | Dame | Molly | 43 moons | Tagged: Morningstar (RyeClan)


Chasmstar roughly pushed Rookstar to the side as she led the charge into the Gathering, her Clan fanning out behind her and dashing to familiar and unfamiliar faces alike. Chasmstar snorted as she watched Richterscreech bolt to a molly with joy. That tom, she thought, turning towards the leaders and spotting a very happy molly. "You seem eager to be here," she meowed, her voice gentle. She knew when to control her temper, and she didn't want to drive away a new cat so immediately. Her issues with a specific cat a few Gatherings ago tickled at the back of her mind, but she quickly smothered them. She wouldn't go seeking fights this time, that was for sure. "I'm Chasmstar, Dame of ChessClan. I don't think we've spoken, but I believe I've seen you in passing at previous Gatherings," she introduced, hoping to strike up a conversation with the stranger.


RICHTERSCREECH | Tour | Tom | 62 moons | Tagged: Swiftwind (KeyClan)


Richterscreech couldn’t help but chuckle before he spotted the tom’s face, and the color drained from his muzzle. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t realize!” he cried, mortified by the ordeal. He didn’t know what to say; he was at a loss for words. He stammered out a few incoherent syllables before shutting his muzzle with an audible snap. He just stared blankly at the tom, anxiously awaiting a response. He hated the silence, but he just couldn’t bring himself to say anything. He feared he would sound more of a fool than he already did.


WOLFWHISKERS | Fou | Tom | 67 moons | Tagged: Tealeaf (CocoaClan)

The way she spoke was so stiff that it frightened Wolfwhiskers, so he obediently sat next to her. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Tealeaf,” he meowed, pausing on her name. There was something strange, nearly ironic, about her name, but he couldn’t quite place his paw on it. Pushing the confusion aside, he smiled gently at her in what he hoped would be taken as genuine. Faonpaw had told him that his smiles never looked or felt genuine, and he worried that his practice was all for nothing. He was so effortlessly not-grumpy with Emberspark, but it took all of his willpower not to scowl and mumble throughout his conversation with Tealeaf.

CRÉCERELLEFLIGHT | Cavalier | Tom | 54 moons | Tagged: Morasspounce (SloughClan), Keylime (CocoaClan)

Crécerelleflight flattened his ears in embarrassment, looking towards the other cats with a sheepish smile. He had become so consumed by his appearance as a way to distract himself from the absence of Soleilstripes that it had become habit, one he was trying so desperately to break. He shook out his pelt and smiled at Morasspounce and Keylime, quickly forgetting his earlier embarrassment. “It’s so good to see the both of you,” he purred, neary shocked that Morasspounce had been as bold to Keylime as she had been. He found it rather attractive, and he had to hide the sudden rapid beating of his heart. The both of them had an effect on him, that was for certain, but he didn’t like admitting these things. It had taken several visits to admit it to Soleilstripes when the tom visited Crécerelleflight’s dreams.
Crécerelleflight willingly accepted the affection of Keylime, gasping as the tom explained the hardships that hit his Clan one after the other. “I’m sorry that all happened, but I’m glad you could make it tonight,” he purred, hoping to reassure Keylime. “You have kits?” he meowed gently, hoping to learn more about the tom. He didn’t know much about Keylime’s past, and he thought this to be a good time and test the ice. If the tom seemed uncomfortable with sharing, Crécerelleflight would of course stop his questions immediately. He wasn’t rude.

OISEAUDAPPLE | Cavalier | Tom | 16 moons | Tagged: Quakestone (Highgarden)


Oiseaudapple took a gentle step into the Gathering as he looked around, nervous to not have Sopranocavern or Violindapple at his side. His throat closed at the thought of his sister in ÉtoileClan, but he knew she was always watching over him. He missed her fiercely, and he only hoped to chase away the sorrow. He slid to a stop as a familiar pelt reached his line of vision, and he scurried towards Quakestone. "Quakestone? Is that you?" he meowed, realizing how long it had been since he had seen her.


PLUVIERPETAL | Cavalier | Tom | 16 moons | Tagged: Forestpaw (ShoreClan)

Pluvierpetal shrugged and quickly smoothed his chest fur. “Not really, though some of my clanmates are very prone to fighting. I hope it doesn’t happen again,” he chuckled nervously, eyes quickly searching for two familiar pelts. Cats who got in fights at Gatherings were always a joy to deal with on the journey home, either extremely angry at everything or moping about for days. “What about you? You do anything fun at these things?” he chuckled, hoping not to drive the other cat away. It was a sad day any time he caused that to happen. After all, Pluvierpetal really enjoyed talking with other cats, even if he wasn’t the best at it.

KeyClan
(I can bring more cats, if anyone needs someone to talk to! Here's a link to my last post; feel free to either dm me or just tag one of them at random. As long as you mention KeyClan, I'll find it!)

❧Cypressstar || Ringmaster || ♂ || 69 Moons || longhaired solid black tom with amber eyes, blink in the right || Tagged: Wolfsnarl [Pinewatch]

paraEventually, Cypressstar's wandering brings him to a strange tabby, and he doesn't think twice before approaching him with a "hello there!" to catch his attention. He does his best to keep the stranger more on his left side, making sure he's able to see him the best he can.

❧Swiftwind || Trapeze Artist || ♂ || 84 Moons || blue somali with one blind golden eye and facial scars || Tagged: Richterscreech [ChessClan]
paraThe panic in the other's voice has Swiftwind wheezing out another laugh, and he shakes his head fondly before turning in his direction, an gentle smile on his muzzle. "Don't worry, I'm not offended. It was almost nice to be treated like a normal cat again." the last bit is mostly said as a joke, because he does still get treated like a regular cat by a good portion of his Clan, but he can't help but pull at this tom's tail a bit.

❧Ceriseberry || Tamer || ♀ || 26 Moons || mediumhaired red classic tabby with green eyes || Tagged: Snowpetal [MoonClan]
paraBouncing a little on her toes, Ceriseberry beams at the white molly. "It's nice to meet you too, Snowpetal! I'm a tamer of KeyClan, which is a healing rank, so I assume it's the same as healer?" She cocks her head to the side as she thinks it over, trying to remember what Weasel said other tamer's in other Clans were called. Medical cats? Medicinal cats? Something like that. Oh well, doesn't matter in the long run!

❧Skullbash || Acrobat || ♂ || 61 Moons || shorthaired black tabby with low white and pale green eyes || Tagged: Hayblast [ShoreClan]
paraSnorting in amusement, Skullbash beams back at her and settle down next to her, his paws shuffling a little as he gets comfortable. "Hey yourself, pretty cat!" He then laughs at his own words, eyes scrunching shut with the force of it. Bumping their shoulders together, he offers her a softer, more kind smile this time. "Nice to meetcha, Hayblast! I'm Skullbash, we almost have matching names!"

❧Pantscat || Acrobat || ♀ || 47 Moons || solid cream & chocolate chimera with amber eyes || Tagged: Claw That Tear the Sand [Court of the Butterflies]
paraShe nodded absently as they spoke, and slowly lifted her head out of the tilted position she had had it in. "Nice meet you, Sandclaw! Rompo is Pantscat, rompo!" She chirps out the second rompo without really meaning to, rolling her shoulders back as she sits up a bit higher. The longer name sounds fun, but she wouldn't be able to say it properly, so she didn't even bother with it.

❧Snickersnee || Acrobat || ☿️ || 46 Moons || ruddy somali with amber eyes || Tagged: Cocoagleam [SloughClan]

paraThey shudder for a moment at the question, ears dropping as they puff out another sigh. "Birchglow isn't going to make it." They settle on saying, not wanting to just blurt out that their shared mate is dead just yet. They're not even sure if they'd even be able to say it in as many words, but they'd already made their mind up to do so before coming here. So, they were going to do their best to ease into it gently, instead of just throwing it on Cocoagleam like shoving him into a deep pond.

‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾Moonclan☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙

cats attending: stoneburr, foxtrot, snowpetal, yewberry, quailjaw, coypond, daisypaw, wrenpaw

Stoneburr - wise one - 91 moons - male - tags; foxtrot, shade cast by falling snow [court of butterflies]
It didn't take all too long for the rather grumbly elder to find himself dragged by his mate in the direction of a youngster who seemed a little more nervous than the felines around them. Stoneburr could only sigh at the golden heart of his mate, and alas found himself leading the two closer to the younger tom. "You doing alright over here?" Well, the gruff greeting was possibly the best the stranger could get from the steely elder.

Foxtrot - wise one - 89 moons - male - tags; stoneburr, shade cast by falling snow [court of butterflies]
Foxtrot's gentle gaze watched his mate affectionately as he lead the two towards the young warrior Foxtrot had spotted amongst the crowd, it never mattered how much Stoneburr seemed to despise starting conversations with "mere strangers", he would always take the lead for Foxtrot. The ginger & white tom could barely hide the laugh of amusement as Stoneburr's greeting rumbled between them, pelt brushing against his mate's as he stepped closer to lean his head affectionately against Stoneburr's grey shoulder. "His manners have escaped him, I apologise. I'm Foxtrot of Moonclan, and this is my mate Stoneburr. We just happened to notice you looked a little in need of company."

Snowpetal - healer - 26 moons - female - tags; ceriseberry [keyclan]
The energy the red molly exuded shocked Snowpetal a bit, drawing a small laugh from the healer as she watched the other seem to ponder over what had been said. "Tamer? That sounds very unique. I would assume it's the same, yes; helping with the sick and injured, collecting and learning herbs & medicinal practices, communicating with our lost"? Snowpetal's smile remained as she explained the best she could to her new companion, seeming to find amusement in the other's confusion. "I believe the other clan cats name them Medicine Cats".

Yewberry - warrior - 34 moons - male - tags; cobrashade [chaosclan]

The light grey & white tom was excited, noticeable by the twitching of his tail, as he split from his brother's side and began weaving his way through the crowded clearing. He wasn't so sure what exactly it was he was seeking, but Yewberry found his paws tended to have a mind of their own and he'd simply take with stride wherever it was he ended up. It seemed, this time, to lead him in the direction of a younger-seeming tom with a sharp gaze, drawing Yewberry in closer with a mild curiosity. "Hello there!" The warrior was quick to approach, smile kind and bright as he trotted towards the steely tom. As Yewberry's brother would always say; he wasn't very good at reading certain situations. "I'm Yewberry, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Quailjaw - warrior - 34 moons - male - tags; shoreabranch [cascadeclan]

The tabby warrior definitely wasn't expecting to enjoy the gathering as much as he found himself enjoying it now, seated beside a new companion with a constant smile and laughter shared, it was definitely shaping up to be a favourite of his. Quailjaw couldn't contain the rumble of amusement as Shoreabranch spoke of her encounter, head shaking in humoured disbelief. "Well, I'm certainly glad to be of better company than a tail-eating quail." Quailjaw couldn't help but to lean closer to the grey & white molly, amusement lacing his tone and twitching his whiskers "Though I must say, you're quite the brave feline; taking on such a mighty foe, I'm truly impressed".

Coypond - hunter - 26 moons - female - tags; yewclaw [pinewatch]

Coypond could barely hide the small smile at the sound of the tom's soft laughter, it seemed she'd already acomplished what she was hoping to. The molly couldn't help to feel a little pride in herself eachtime she drew a smile or laugh from the more "stoney" of felines, given why she seemed to have a pretty decent relationship with Stoneburr. Coypond sounded a small hum in acknowledgement at the grey tom's reasoning, though the she-cat had felt the same her first gathering, she found it wasn't too different from back in caves. "Oh, I'm Coypond, hunter of Moonclan. A pleasure to meet you, Yewclaw." The smile stayed on the molly's face as she came to settle beside the scarred tom, finding she wouldn't mind a space beside him for the remainder of the gathering. "If you don't mind my asking; why come to the gathering if you do not like it?"

Daisypaw - to be warrior - 12 moons - female - tags; mintpaw [duckclan]

The soon to be warrior had found herself striding through groups of strangers and mingling around in bits of conversations as she split from her brother's side, finding comfort in going forward on her own. Soon she found her eyes trailing another young to-be as they walked about the gathering, though appearing much more the frightened type than most of the other felines around them. Daisypaw continued to watch the younger she-cat closely as she sat to the side, eyes growing ever softer at the look of hoplelessness grasping the poor thing. With a sigh, the to-be dragged herself up and started towards the younger, thick tail waving to draw her attention. "You certainly seem a little lost here. I'm Daisypaw, who might you be?"

Wrenpaw - to be hunter - 12 moons - male - tags; maplesyrup [cocoaclan]
The young soon-to-be hunter had done well so far, keeping to himself after his sister had left his side, straying to the outskirts of gathered cats where he could find comfort in a quieter space. It seemed, however, the stars held a different plan for the young tom. A surprised yelp sounded from Wrenpaw as his white paw caught on the root of a tree, sending the tom flying forwards and right into another feline having sat between the roots of the same tree. Wrenpaw felt his pelt grow hot as he scrambled to his paws, worried golden eyes scanning the tabby tom he'd sent falling to the ground. "Oh! I'm so sorry! Are you hurt"?

✦ morningstar ──────────── she/her
matron 37m ♀ - T: chamstar / chessclan
"Nice to meet you, Chamstar!" Morningstar tried to hide her keenness to talk to the other leader. "I'm Morningstar, matron of RyeClan." She dipped her head respectfully.

"I've been to a couple of gatherings now, yes. Not much to speak on, I've been more of an observer than an interactor." She tilted her head slightly. "How have things been for you, if I may ask?"

✦ cottonwhisker ──────────── he/him

Cottonwhisker flicked his ear as he gazed around at the entirely-too-large group of cats. Why did he come again?

Deputy | She-cat | 41 moons

Sighing as she padded into the gathering which was yet another without her leader. Sitting more toward the edge of the group this time around. Not really realizing she was getting lost in her thoughts tell she heard a soft voice say hello to her. Shaking her head a little with wide eyes she looked at who it came from. "Why hello there sorry I was just thinking about some things. I'm Moonblossom the Deputy of Sloughclan." she said giving a slight nod as she introduced herself.

Morasspounce tags: Crécerelleflight [Chessclan], and Keylime [Cocoaclan]
Warrior | She-cat | 51 moons
Looking curiously at Keylime as he mentioned having kits of his own. Something she didn't remember him mentioning to them before "You've got kits? What are they like?" she asked curiously. Personally, she never cared whether she had kits or not. She did enjoy playing with the ones who are apart of the clan. Though she didn't know if one day she may have kits if her mate if she was ever able to convince someone to be her mate, wanted them. Brought out of her thoughts by Keylime nuzzling her cheek with his nose. Smiling at Crécerelleflight "It's good to see the both of you too." she purred happily.

Cocoagleam tags: Snickersnee [Keyclan]
Warrior | Tom | 39 moons
"Wh-what?" he stammered voice cracking not really know what his mate meant. A million thoughts ran thru his mind as he. Stumbling a little bit away from Snickersnee's side as he looked at the ground. "Wh-what do you me-mean?" he said as his shocked and worried eyes looked back up at them. Fur almost standing on end as he shivered with the fear that flowed thru his body. Feel like ice was running thru his veins as he stood there.

Parsleybound tags: Pikeleap [Hazeclan]
Warrior | She-cat | 15 moons

The smile that was upon the young warrior's face couldn't be hidden. Bounding into the gathering with her best friend by her side. The two of them giggled with each other. Grateful to have Sussurusbounce there with her as she struggled a tad to pass her assessment but she finally did just in time for the gathering. Though she was glad to be with her friend it didn't stop her eyes from wandering in hopes to find a familiar face. One she hasn't since for quite a few moons since her last gathering in which she still was an apprentice.

Sussurusbounce tags: Diamondgaze [Hazeclan]
Warrior | She-cat | 15 moons

With a grin on her face, the young warrior bounded into the gathering with Parsleybound by her side. Glad to have her best friend with her as it was her first gathering after all. Though she was glad to be there as she was worried she may not be able to make it due to the assessment to become a warrior being a challenge for her. It loomed in her mind that maybe she wasn't fit for the role she was put into. Granted she loved being a warrior and it brought her a lot of joy, it just was very disheartening.

Lemongrass tags: Blitzjump [Tidalclan], and Fallowdust [Tidalclan]
Warrior | She-cat | 30 moons
It was the cream cat's first-ever gathering so she didn't fully know what to do. Watching around but a little worried she wouldn't be able to find anyone to speak with. That was before she felt another body collide with her own. "Oof-" she said as she stumbled a little "Uh hello there..." she said trying to hide her slight annoyance of being ran into. Shaking out her fur a little bit as she looked at the fact that two cats were not in front of her. One of whom was smaller with a black pelt the other was a fawn in color. "I'm Lemongrass." she said introducing herself to the two cats in front of her.

Mourningdove tags: Barkbrush [Pillar Clan]
Knight | She-cat | 27 moons
A shocked expression came upon her face at the words that came out of their mouth. Suddenly a purr came from deep within her as she pressed close to them. Licking their face gently "I like you a lot too. Every time I get picked to come to a gather I hope I will get to see you..." she trailed off at the end blushing. Her heart was racing as she never fully admitted that to anyone other than Baywatcher. He kept telling her that she should share her feelings with Barkbrush because to him she was clearly in love with the fellow cat. Though she never had been in love before she trusted her friend due to him being in a relationship that she could tell he cared deeply for. Which she knew was similar to how she felt about the cat she was next to now.

Mushroomforest tags: Sugarbreeze [Shoreclan], Forestpaw [Shoreclan], and Oysterpaw [Shoreclan]
Knight | Enby [they/them] | 31 moons
To their shock, the group began to approach them so they attempted to act like they weren't studying them. Though they took note that one of the apprentices was staying rather close to Sugarbreeze. WIth her tail constantly touching them as if to lead them. That's when they noticed that their eyes looked rather strange. Not in a bad way, but they assumed that the apprentice was blind. They cleared their throat as they listened to their old mate address them. "Ahem, yeah what is it Sugarbreeze?" they questioned keeping their eyes fixed on the calico now. Shuffling their paws as they waited for her to tell them what is up.

[recognize]

duckclan - attending: duckstar, marchsnow, clovermouse, mintpaw, rookflight, foxangel, coco, puddlepaw

duckstar - female - 50m - the yellow guide - mate: littleink - tags: with puddlepaw, ignitionpaw (cascadeclan)

duckstar felt a sense of pride that the apprentice knew about her clan. she didn't realize they smelled like ducks, but now that she knew she would wholeheartedly embrace it.

puddlepaw - male (afab) - 11m - apprentice - open for relationships, pan - tags: with duckstar, ignitionpaw (cascadeclan)

puddlepaw blinked, the question momentarily lowering his guard. "i like learning new things," he said, thinking about everything his mentor had taught him. "eveninglight's a good hunter and knows all sorts of techniques and hunting strategies that no one else knows. she says that i'm a good hunter too because i'm good at hiding." being so small, he was easily concealed by the tall patches of grass in duckclan, which helped him ambush enemies and also be the best at hide and seek. "what about you?"

marchsnow - male - 52m - the blue guard - mate: asterblizzard - tags: open

clovermouse - enby (amab) - 28m - med cat - open for relationships, pan, has 3 kits - tags: wavecall (snowclan)
"hello wavecall of— snowclan," clovermouse repeated, nodding enthusiastically. "how are you? how is your clan?" they peered at the tom curiously. "i like snow!"

mintpaw - female - 8m - med cat app. - open for relationships, lesbian - tags: daisypaw (moonclan)
"oh! hello!" mintpaw stood a little straighter when she noticed someone talking to her. "i'm mintpaw." she glanced around. "yeah, i came here with clovermouse but he's gone off by himself." she paused before adding, "he's not very responsible. but, if you have the time, we could talk to one another." she looked to daisypaw hopefully.

rookflight - female - 31m - warrior - tags: firetail (cloverclan)

someone blocked her line of vision, and for a moment she thought they would go away but they decided to sit there. she eventually decided to approach them, having nothing else to do. "hello," she called, giving a friendly wave of her tail. "mind if i join you?"

foxangel - female - 59m - warrior - tags: open

foxangel nervously peered into the gathering area, not sure what she was meant to do. she had been excited to return to her warrior duties but quickly found that she had forgotten a lot, and it had been ages since she had gone to a gathering. did duckstar want her to do anything in particular? she remembered that silentstar would always ask something of them to do at the gatherings.

coco - female - 27m - warrior - tags: henfeather & snowdrop (pillarclan)
coco tried to imagine what their clan must be like, but she had never seen any tree nearly so large and her eyes widened. "wow! trees! we don't have many trees in duckclan." they were more used to a wide open area, with sun warming their pelts and the dirt ground beneath them. there were only a handful of trees scattered around until you got to the humans and their houses, but even those were small and easy to climb.

"your clan's so interesting! i'm from duckclan. we live in a big hole in a meadow." she smiled as she thought of her home and the new friends she'd made there. "we have flowers and ducks and mud, and it's just a lovely place in general."

[salvation.]

the fallen

badgermask|warrior|molly|aldernight (cascadeclan)
"well wouldn't be the word i would use, we lost our deputy in the past moon, a tragedy really." normally one would speak of this topic with a sense of sadness, but badgermask said it rather amused, partially because she had something to do with the deputy dying.
wildflame|warrior|molly|open
wildflame looks around eagerly for someone to chat with.
sandrunner|warrior|tom|open
sandrunner takes a seat somewhere further from most of the cats.
koitail|warrior|molly|open
koitail is practically ready to burst as she is eagerly waiting for someone to chat with her.

pinewatch

wolfsnarl|king|tom|cypressstar (keyclan)
wolfsnarl was a little surprised by the sudden greeting from another cat. "greetings, i am wolfsnarl king of pinewatch." he dipped his head in formal greeting, noticing that the tom was seemingly trying to hide his right side, but wolfnsarl brushed it off.

hawkstorm|hunter|tom|sparrowflutter (highgarden)
"ah thank you." hawkstorm replied in regards to the compliment about his fur. most of the cats in pinewatch had longer fur, it was much better at protecting from the usual cold weather in the pine forest, although the fur was somewhat of a nuisance in the hotter moons. "i'm from pinewatch, it's a small kingdom in the pine forest. there isn't much of us yet, but our king is trying to rebuild." he said proudly.

laketalon|soldier|molly|open
laketalon is sitting and quietly observing the others at the gathering.
yewclaw|soldier|tom|coypond (moonclan)
"for one thing there aren't too many cats in pinewatch, and it's rather cold in our territory, i suppose i just wanted to stretch my legs." he paused. "what's it like in moonclan?" he was genuinely curious, as he found moonclan to be a strange name for a group of cats.
