Kitty nodded at the opal comment. "They are quite beautiful. Indeed, there are many beautiful gem stones around in our streams and ponds, I often wonder how they got there, but that's a question I think about a lot about various things around our territory." She finished. "I also understand your reasoning for being self-conscious about your eyes. Two of our apprentices, twins, have heterochromia. I remember when they were kits and one asked me if they were normal." She sighed at the memory. Kitty turned to Zarude. "Pocketclan, what's the area like?" She asked, considering Opal's Circus was in a strange area she was always curious of the other territories.

"Thank you!" Hoshi chided, Karasu whispering a thank you next to her. "Opal's Circus is super far! We travelled weeks to get here, but good thing our Witch Doctor was with us!" She spoke proudly. "Hoshi? I'm pretty sure Kitty always goes to the gathering, because of the journey?" Karasu spoke. "Also speaking of Witch Doctors.. I've heard that some jobs are called different things in different clans.." He thought out loud. "Per chance does your clan have different names for things like that? What's it like there?" He said a bit nervously, finally gaining the courage to ask a question.

Cockroachstar - 63 moons - Marquess - Tags; open - img

Cockroachstar looked a bit uncomfortable, constantly fluffing out his fur. He was usually glad to have such a thick pelt and fur, but in the warm nights of greenleaf, he was less than happy to have to lug around pounds of pure fluff. He glanced at Hollystar, who had a confident demeanor- unlike her first gathering, where the poor she-cat seemed to be too scared to talk to a single cat. The fluffy tom looked around for a bit, but turned back when he heard Hollystar address the clan, "Don't stay out to late, alright?" She mewed, and Tsunamibite nodded, and Cockroachstar almost burst out cackling from the Earl's stiff figure, and he made a mental note to himself to teach Tsunamibite how to loosen up and not be so serious.

Hollystar - 58 moons - Marchioness - Tags; open - img

It was hard not to notice Cockroachstar constantly shaking out his fur like a bug was annoying him, but Hollystar figured it was due to the unusual warmth- or perhaps it was usual? She didn't know; being in a tundra your entire life kind of messed up your temperature perspectives. She turned to her clan and told them about not staying out too late. To be honest, she much would rather have stayed at camp instead of coming here, to catch up on sleep she had been missing, but she knew it was her duty to attend the gathering with her clan. She sat down and surveyed the cats around her with curiosity, looking to see if any peaked her interest.

Tsunamibite - 73 moons - Earl - Tags; open - img

tbh hes probably just walkin' around. what a guy

Morninglight - 49 moons - Healer - Tags; Ninjask (Pocketclan) - img

Morninglight nodded along, her fluffy white fur sticking out amongst the greenleaf colors, so much so it looked like she was a sort of snow-cat. "That's good to hear! Tundraclan also has two leaders- well, a Marquess and a Marchioness. Our Marchioness is Hollystar and our Marquess is Cockroachstar- you've probably seen him," she laughed, "He's huge and definetely not missable. Did both Dialga and Palkia come? Usually Hollystar and Cockraochstar both come, but I know that isn't true for some other clans with two leaders." Before Ninjask could reply, she continued, her excitement over seeing him not wearing off, "How is Pocketclan, by the way? I've never heard of it before now. It seems nice, though! I appreciate that Palkia befriended Hatterene." She smiled and curled her tail over her paws.

Swanpaw - 11 moons - Healer Weakling - Tags; Hoshi and Karasu (Opal's Circus) - img

Swanpaw looked astonished as Hoshi stated it had taken the Opal's Circus attendees weeks to arrive at the Gathering. Swanpaw nodded and he wondered for a moment what a Witch Doctor was, before figuring it was most likely a healer. Once the gray and white tom heard Karasu's question, glad that the tom was curious about Tundraclan, "Well, we have two leaders! A Marquess and a Marchioness. Then we have an Earl, which I suppose is a kind of second-in-command, and Healers, which are basically like your Witch Doctor, I think! The cats that train and hunt are Knights, and the cats that are taught by them are Weaklings- im a Healer Weakling!" He seemed excited to talk about his clan, and continued on just a moment after stopping for air, "Then the cats with kits are called Esquires, and the kits are called Reines, and our old cats are called Comte!" He was struggling to breathe, but seemed satisfied he could enlighten some cats on Tundraclan, "What about Opal's Circus?" He asked.

cats in attendance; Palkia, Zarude, Fearow, Ninjask, Kabuto.

Palkia ♀ 32 moons (leader) - tags; squirrelflash (evergreen park)
the molly's hind end quivered a little bit, as though the spot where her tail would have been was attempting to curl around her front paws, like she had seen many other cats do when they tried to get comfortable while sitting. she did her best to stop flexing her claws into the ground before her, knowing that without a tail to cover her actions, she would only look nervous, not excited, and perhaps be judged for it. not by this leader she was talking to, she quite liked her actually, but perhaps by some of the other older or more stern leaders. "oh yes, it takes a lot of physical stamina for me to get my clan all the way here. in pocketclan, we actually have two leaders; the other is my former mentor actually, dialga. but he's a bit older and has a harder time bouncing back from such journeys, so he and i i have agreed to allow me to attend soley instead." as she explained a bit about her clan's hierarchy to this other leader, she was grateful that her first friend from another clan was a kind cat who seemed to like having conversation, instead of feeling forced to. "we aren't the largest clan, but we aren't tiny either. we're a traveling clan you see, so we stay in a two-leg city for a few moons, finding cats who'd like to join the safety of a clan, before we move on to another two-leg town." her bubbly voice was happy to talk about her clan, her chest puffing up a bit in pride. "only five of us came ot this gathering, but the only one that you'd really be able to see is our healer, zarude. he's sitting down on that ledge there, talking to that tabby molly. he's the pure white manx with a blue eye and a green eye; he's the largest cat i've ever met, so he stands out in the crowd. what about your clan, do you have a lot of members who attend these gatherings?"

Zarude ♂ 56 moons (healer) - tags; kitty (opal's circus)
the large white tom kept his eyes trained intently on the smaller molly before him, showing her his full attention as a form of respect for the other healer. "well, pocketclan is a bit of a unique clan, you see, we travel a lot. we don't have any permanent camp; we stay in one two-leg town for a few moons before traveling to the next. the region where we live currently is called sinnoh, its a large island that has a massive mountain range right down the center, so if we're not down at the coastal beaches, we can experience some cold and snow." he spoke fondly of his clan, his chest puffing out in pride."what about your clan, what's the territory of opal's circus like? you said you have streams and ponds, so do you guys have to learn how to swim rather well?"

Fearow ♀ 38 moons (warrior) - tags; arrowthroat (seaclan)
the oriental molly had been content to stand at the far end of the clearing, her multi-colored eyes watching the cats interacting before her, while she simply leaned against the tree behind her for a bit of support. she was not one to have her back turned to anyone, so the tree offered a bit of comfort knowing no one could sneak up on her, and she was also unlikely to actually sit down, as that was too easily vulnerable of a position to be attacked from; some old rogue habits died hard, she supposed. her blue and grey eyes snapped up quickly as a voice called out to her from a black tabby tom who was approaching her; he seemed friendly enough, but she wasn't one to let her guard down, so she carefully nodded her head, gesturing with her tail that he could sit at her side if he wished. she was surprised that anyone had come up to her; her nicked ears and heavily scarred body typically were enough to scare off anyone from wanting to talk to her. she shifted a bit, just the slightest bit uncomfortable, because when she spoke, the badly healed broken jaw that she had from an old rogue fight was clearly visible; she couldn't hide it as she talked, so she instead tried to just appear confident, despite her odd appearance. "i suppose that's alright. i'm fearow, of pocketclan. who are you?"

Ninjask ♂ 27 moons (warrior) - tags; morninglight (tundraclan)
the small black tom was filled with energy at the excitement and happiness of seeing this familiar face again, but finally he was able to calm himself down enough to sit down, wrapping his tail around his paws in an attempt to remain relatively still. "marchioness and marquess - those are weird words, i've never heard them before. both of our leaders are kjust called leaders, although i suppose having different names would be easier sometimes." the tom tended to ramble a bit, but he never seemed to notice, and hopefully the older molly didn't mind. "dialga stayed behind with the rest of the clan; he's older than palkia and we have a long travel here, so it's harder on him. palkia did attend though; if you look up at the leader's ledge, she's the bengal molly with no tail and blue eyes, right now she's talking to a fluffy brown cat." he gestured with his tail towards where his new leader sat. "pocketclan is good, and its always an adventure, which i love. we don't have a permanent camp but we are constantly traveling, which i love, being on the move and meeting new cats."

Kabuto ♀ 12 moons (apprentice) - tags; open
the bubbly tortoiseshell molly was practically bouncing in place as she tried her best to stay still and listen to her leader talk about the rules for the gathering, but she just couldn't focus. her bright green eyes were constantly scanning the gathering space before her, taking notice of the wide variety of cats before her; some were larger than zarude, and some were smaller than her! the eye colors and pelt patterns were more diverse than she had ever seen before either. she turned and made eye contact with the harsh eyes of the molly fearow and offered a nervous smile before she raced excitedly into the crowd before her, hoping that someone would just jump out to hit her in the face with their friendliness and she could strike up a conversation. "okay, lets see..." she murmured to herself.

"Very interesting! I suppose you all have to be prepared for any weather then, yes?" Kitty smiled, she couldn't imagine traveling as much as she used to now, other then to and from gatherings. "Swimming is a big yes. There are plenty of streams, ponds, rivers and lakes around us.. The area is a beautiful one, and could be mistaken for twoleg made but after studying the area long enough, I simply believe it's a gift from Starclan themselves." She spoke softly, loud enough for the other to hear at the same time. "Our camp is located in a crater, one I have yet to figure out the cause of. It's in a relatively large field, and it's quite ominous at first glance. Outside of it is a forest with too many butterflies to count, sometimes I have a hard time seeing in there." She huffed, remembering training with Tora while a butterfly harassed her Pupil. Smiling fondly at the memory, she continued. "The rest of the area is pretty much unexplored, as the field is so tall and practically a sea to be drowned in, but we are working on it." Kitty shrugged. "Do you perhaps have a Pupil of sorts? I'm not too aware of what you may call them, but one you may be training?" She asked curiously, tilting her head to the left.

Hoshi's eyes became stars, staying true to her name. "Two leaders?! That's so cool!" She bounced a bit. "In Opal's Circus, we have the Opal, which is basically our leader.. and yes! Witch Doctors are our healers. Proxy is a second in command, which we don't currently have but I think our Opal has been thinking of choosing one soon. We have Vindicators and Nimrods, which are like your Knights! We are pupils, I'm a pupil of a Nimrod, so that's what I'll be when I grow up, where as Karasu is a pupil to a Vindicator, so he'll be a Vindicator! Our kit caretakers are called Monarchs and the kits are called Ankle-biters! And finally, our elders are called Seniors!" She finished happily, being used to talking so much without needing to breathe. "Normally when speaking of our Opal we do not reveal any info on them to outside cats, and normally we wouldn't even refer to them by their name in clan, but they have told us to 'skip the formalities' with them. But we still refer to them as our Opal outside of our clan, along with gender neutral pronouns." Karasu added on. Hoshi nodded. "Oh! I have a question! What kinds of things do you guys eat in Tundraclan? Also is it really cold there? I've heard the word tundra before and it was described as cold.." She meowed, interest sparkling in her eyes.

Morninglight - 49 moons - Healer - Tags; Ninjask (Pocketclan) - img

Morninglight nodded, “I’m not sure why we use such different and weird words? I always forget the difference between the two.” She chuckled. Morninglight looked up at the leader’s ledge, and could manage to make out a cat with Ninjask’s description, conversing with another cat, then turned back to Ninjask, “That sounds fun! I’ve heard stories that before Tundraclan made its permanent camp in the tundra, it was originally named something else, and was located quite a ways away. I wish I could’ve been there for the journey to the tundra.” She looked wistful, but continued, “Where does Pocketclan usually stay till they relocate?” Morninglight asked.

Swanpaw - 11 moons - Healer Weakling - Tags; Hoshi and Karasu (Opal's Circus) - img

Swanpaw purred at Hoshi’s enthusiasm, and listened intently. When she mentioned Ankle-biters, Swanpaw stifled a loud laugh. “That’s interesting! I get why the Opal would want to hide any information on themself from outside cats.” His ears perked as Hoshi asked another question, and he grinned widely while answering, “Well, we eat.. what are they again..? Oh! We eat lemmings, common ravens, tundra voles, tundra shrews, rock ptarmigans, stoats, and harlequin ducks! If you ever have the chance to eat any of those, I recommend stoats! They are a little small compared to some other prey, but their taste is so delicious!” He purred, “And oh yea, it’s freezing! I’m glad my pelt is kind of thick, but there are shorthaired cats and they aren’t as lucky. Some of them even have to use moss to cover themselves to keep warm!” He laughed, “It snows a lot, and I absolutely adore seeing Esquires take out some Reines and show them the snow. A few kits recently got their first experience with snow, and one of them even interrupted me in the Healer’s Den because they were worried if they ate a snowflake, they’d get sick!” He purred with laughter, “What about you two? What’s it like in Opal’s Circus?” He asked curiously.

While Hoshi was giggling to herself at the thought of cats covered in moss, Karasu answered for her. "We'll take that recommendation into consideration!" He smiled warmly, trying to pick up his own spirits a little bit. "Our territory is pretty warm most of the time, and winters aren't actually too bad.. though we do get more snow then I'd like to have personally." He sighed frowning at the thought of snow. "I am wondering, do you happen to have your mentor here? What are they like?" He asked, tilting his head a bit with interest.

EVERGREEN PARK

squirrelflash: pathfinder, 55m, ♀; tags: palkia
indentthankfully, palkia seemed to a sweet leader, and squirrelflash counted herself lucky to meet with a leader who was happy to swap stories about their clans. whereas other leaders might stiffen at even the slightest curious question about their clan, squirrelflash was happy to relish in her new friendship, and her ears pricked in interest. "really, you split the leadership? how does that work, exactly? what if you two happen to disagree?" she supposed it wasn't unheard of, perhaps, in other clans, but it wasn't something that squirrelflash had ever considered before. though mammoth acted as her deputy and had a large sway in the decisions made for their clan, it was never a question whether or not squirrelflash was the sole leader of evergreen park. her closest friends and confidants could only push so far if it ever came to a disagreement, though squirrelflash valued their opinions and considerations.
indentsquirrelflash craned her head to follow palkia's gaze towards pocketclan's healer, and she nodded along with the other leader's words. "he certainly does stand out," she said, not unkindly. when palkia asked about her own clanmates, squirrelflash hummed thoughtfully, scanning the crowd before gesturing towards mammoth and his trainee. "the hairless tom over there is our clan's deputy, mammoth. though it seems a little silly to call him mammoth after looking at zarude," she purred, clearly fond of her best friend. "he brought along one our young trainees tonight, thinking it'd be good to get her out of camp for a while, to see a few other clans. but, for the most pat, majority of our clan is back home on their missions." she watched mammoth and bramblingpaw in the distance as they seemed to be locked in conversation with two other cats before she turned back to palkia. "where we come from, there are a fair few passing loner and rogue groups, and we try to keep peace in the forest and work as emissaries between them in times of conflict. which can mean that several of our pioneers are away from camp for some time while they carry messages or deal with any other business. which doesn't lend much of their time for gatherings, unfortunately, since i know many of them would love to join." she shrugged nonchalantly. "but, if your travels ever find you near evergreen park's territory, you must come by, i'm sure our clans would have much to learn from one another."

mammoth: trailblazer, 47m, ♂; tags: bramblingpaw, onionwhisker, balancepaw
indent"and yours," mammoth greeted, unable to help but smile as his glance turned to the two young cats speaking excitedly to one another. "do you have a lot of training apprentices in seaclan?" he asked onionwhisker. while it seemed that the apprentices were too caught up in their conversation to listen to their mentors, mammoth smiled wistfully. "it's kind of strange, isn't it? being a mentor, i mean. like, you have to pass down everything you know to a kit who doesn't know much of anything, and preparing them for anything that they might come across." catching himself getting too caught up, mammoth drew his paw over his ear. "it's an honor, it really is, and i like to think that i'm a good mentor, but, if i can be candid, it is daunting sometimes."
indentat the same time, bramblingpaw's tail fluffed out with excitement as she listened to balancepaw talk about seaclan. "whoa... we have a lot of rivers and streams in evergreen park, but nothing like the ocean. do you get fish from there?" in her excitement, bramblingpaw kneaded the ground. "and living on a cliff? you must freeze every morning," she said, and her long tabby fur seemed to fluff out even further, as if her imagination made the greenleaf air turn frigid.

cats in attendance; Palkia, Zarude, Fearow, Ninjask, Kabuto.

Palkia ♀ 32 moons (leader) - tags; squirrelflash (evergreen park)
the friendly bengal molly couldn't help but notice the way the other cat's head tilted ever to slightly, the way her ears perked and her eyes narrowed the tiniest bit, as palkia herself mentioned sharing the leadership. she could tell that squirrelflash was lost in her own thoughts for a moment after asking the question, likely trying to wonder out how exactly it worked, and so she waited until the other molly's eyes returned to meet her gaze before she answered with a smile. "well, where we come from, there is a myth of these two legendary creatures, some even call them gods, called palkia and dialga. in this myth, they are mortal enemies, and yet they are also perfect partners; dialga controls time and palkia controls space, and so they must work together in perfect harmony, otherwise the world is thrown out of balance. our clan is founded on this ideology, and so there are always two leaders, who upon becoming leaders, take on the names of these gods. my co-leader dialga and i may be very different, but we balance each other out in every way." the molly couldn't help but smile as she spoke of the older tom who had, by pure luck or strike of fate, saved her life when she was just a kit. her blue eyes flashed over from the spot where her healer sat to the hairless tom that her companion spoke of, and she quickly found him. "oh wow, your clan sounds incredibly interesting squirrelflash. although it is ultimately up to the gods where pocketclan travels, i can certainly pray that at some point we can find ourselves crossing paths with your evergreen park. because of how incredbily far away our island is from this gathering space, we don't exactly have any bordering clans, and thus even fewer allies unfortunately. being isolated can have its perks, but also its disadvantages."

Zarude ♂ 56 moons (healer) - tags; kitty (opal's circus)
the fluffy white tom nodded his head at the smaller molly's questioning, chuckling lightly at how odd it must seem to a cat from another clan, to be constantly on the move like a loner would be, yet doing it together as a clan. "precisely. i personally prefer when we go more inland, because of my thick fur. i can get hot rather easily, so the beaches aren't my favorite place to be, although obviously i can put up with them when i must." his ears did a quick swivel around as he could have sworn he heard his name come from somewhere, before quickly returning to the forward position, fully back on the molly he was speaking to. "we all must learn to swim in pocketclan as well, due to the fact that we live on an island. it's just for safety purposes, because you never know what could happen." he rumbled out his words with a purr, appreciating that his clan wasn't the only weird one that actually had cats who swam in the water instead of avoiding it. ”wow, opal's circus sounds beautiful though! that crater sounds very interesting, i would definitely be curious as to how it was formed and for what purpose. and i must say, i have a bit of a soft spot for pretty things like butterflies, so that forest sounds wonderful." he gave a large grin to the molly, head tilting slightly as she asked him about a pupil. did she mean apprentice perhaps? he knew some clans called things different names. "I had an apprentice, if that's what you mean. she goes by cresselia now that she has finished her training, although back then she was just chingling, and she is considered our clan's secondary healer under myself."

Fearow ♀ 38 moons (warrior) - tags; arrowthroat (seaclan)
the oriental molly had been content to stand at the far end of the clearing, her multi-colored eyes watching the cats interacting before her, while she simply leaned against the tree behind her for a bit of support. she was not one to have her back turned to anyone, so the tree offered a bit of comfort knowing no one could sneak up on her, and she was also unlikely to actually sit down, as that was too easily vulnerable of a position to be attacked from; some old rogue habits died hard, she supposed. her blue and grey eyes snapped up quickly as a voice called out to her from a black tabby tom who was approaching her; he seemed friendly enough, but she wasn't one to let her guard down, so she carefully nodded her head, gesturing with her tail that he could sit at her side if he wished. she was surprised that anyone had come up to her; her nicked ears and heavily scarred body typically were enough to scare off anyone from wanting to talk to her. she shifted a bit, just the slightest bit uncomfortable, because when she spoke, the badly healed broken jaw that she had from an old rogue fight was clearly visible; she couldn't hide it as she talked, so she instead tried to just appear confident, despite her odd appearance. "i suppose that's alright. i'm fearow, of pocketclan. who are you?"

Ninjask ♂ 27 moons (warrior) - tags; morninglight (tundraclan)
the small black tom did his best not to be judgemental; he knew that many clans used different names for things, and so it really wasn't all that weird, just something he himself wasn't used to. but he tried to compare morninglight's clan ranking names being unique to how his own clan's naming system was unique; he was named after a pokemon now, not at all following the traditional warrior prefix-suffix naming style. "what are your leaders like? having the two of them, like we do in pocketclan, i imagine they have different personalities too? are either really above the other, or do they sort of balance each other out?" he couldn't help his curiosity about other clans, after all, he had been born into a very traditional clan and was now living in a very non-traditional clan, plus he was a curious cat by nature. "that sounds a bit too cold for me. i mean, i love the idea of traveling and always adventuring, but doing it somewhere thats freezing cold doesn't sound super fun. i wonder how the cats of your clan knew that they would be able to find shelter, or if any of them froze ecause it was too late..." his voice trailed off at the dark thought, shaking his head to try and clear it away. "it all depends! when we are staying in a two-leg town, we tend to look for a building that's been abandoned by the two-legs, so we don;t have to worry about them bothering us. when we're traveling in the paths between towns, it all depends on the terrain; sometimes we sleep under the stars, sometimes we make nests in the trees, sometimes there are shallow caves we can crawl into."

the bubbly tortoiseshell molly was practically bouncing in place as she tried her best to stay still and listen to her leader talk about the rules for the gathering, but she just couldn't focus. her bright green eyes were constantly scanning the gathering space before her, taking notice of the wide variety of cats before her; some were larger than zarude, and some were smaller than her! the eye colors and pelt patterns were more diverse than she had ever seen before either. she turned and made eye contact with the harsh eyes of the molly fearow and offered a nervous smile before she raced excitedly into the crowd before her, hoping that someone would just jump out to hit her in the face with their friendliness and she could strike up a conversation. "okay, lets see..." she murmured to herself.

Cockroachstar - 63 moons - Marquess - Tags; open - img

Cockroachstar looked a bit uncomfortable, constantly fluffing out his fur. He was usually glad to have such a thick pelt and fur, but in the warm nights of greenleaf, he was less than happy to have to lug around pounds of pure fluff. He glanced at Hollystar, who had a confident demeanor- unlike her first gathering, where the poor she-cat seemed to be too scared to talk to a single cat. The fluffy tom looked around for a bit, but turned back when he heard Hollystar address the clan, "Don't stay out to late, alright?" She mewed, and Tsunamibite nodded, and Cockroachstar almost burst out cackling from the Earl's stiff figure, and he made a mental note to himself to teach Tsunamibite how to loosen up and not be so serious.

Hollystar - 58 moons - Marchioness - Tags; open - img

It was hard not to notice Cockroachstar constantly shaking out his fur like a bug was annoying him, but Hollystar figured it was due to the unusual warmth- or perhaps it was usual? She didn't know; being in a tundra your entire life kind of messed up your temperature perspectives. She turned to her clan and told them about not staying out too late. To be honest, she much would rather have stayed at camp instead of coming here, to catch up on sleep she had been missing, but she knew it was her duty to attend the gathering with her clan. She sat down and surveyed the cats around her with curiosity, looking to see if any peaked her interest.

tbh hes probably just walkin' around. what a guy

Morninglight - 49 moons - Healer - Tags; Ninjask (Pocketclan) - img

Morninglight thought for a moment, "Hollystar relies heavily on our ancestors, and I've heard other cats talk about how she lost a lot of family due to a tyrant who led our clan before her. She is a bit somber, but still cares a lot for us. Cockroachstar is kind of the opposite? He's Hollystar's mate, and both of them lost a kit due to the tyrant, but he tries to be optimistic and fun, a contrast to Hollystar's pessimism and somberness." She licked her paw and drew it over her ear. She looked back at Ninjask and nodded, "I do not believe any cat died on the journey?" She shivered a bit in fear, "But I heard, a few moons before I joined, a cat got lost in a snowstorm and when the patrol found him, he froze to death." She dug her claws into the ground, silently hoping that none of her family dies so soon after joining. "That's cool! We dont deal with twolegs at all, due to our location, but I've always wondered what it would be like to interact with one. In Tundraclan, a few of us sleep under the stars. Mostly cats with thick pelts, since cats with short fur end up complaining about chills." She joked. "How many cats are in Pocketclan? Do you have any friends?" Morninglight knew she probably sounded like an overbearing, overprotective mother- but she couldn't help caring about a cat younger than her, especially one she spent much time with.

Swanpaw thought for a moment, "I've never really known warmth- our summers are still rather cold." He laughed a bit, his eyes bright with laughter. He shuffled his paws a bit when Karasu mentioned his mentor, "He isn't here right now, sadly. His name is Wisteriaflight and he is the best though!" He gave a wide grin, then continued, "He's in the nursery right now, though. I have a new mentor now, though. Her name is Morninglight. I'm not sure where she went? She's fluffy and completely white. She's a good teacher but.." He trailed on for a bit, "She doesn't really understand me, I suppose? She tries to- but she is very overbearing." He shook out his fur and sighed, "What about you two?" He asked, giving a small smile.

Kitty huffed a small laugh. "You must be proud of her, yes? She sounds like a wonderful cat." She smiled and thought for a moment. "My own Pupil is named Tora. She's only 9 moons but has been progressing through her training with ease, she's a quick learner." She spoke with pride about her Pupil. "Has healing been busy for you? I should imagine with all the traveling you must run into issues quite often." She inquired to the tom.

Karasu looked at him with a bit of sympathy. "I'm sure she's trying her best, but I'm sure you know that too. Adults can make mistakes too, so if she gets anything wrong, you'll just have to correct her! It's the only way to learn." He spoke, a bit of determination in his voice. "Our mentors are currently here.. I'm not sure where-" "Probably flirting in a corner or something" Hoshi interrupted with a smug face. Karasu turned quickly to scold her. "Don't say that! That's not all they do you know, they have decency." He said, not sure if he was reassuring Hoshi or himself. "A-anyways.. they have an... interesting? Relationship? They flirt a lot and are always together.." He meowed. "Aiko barks like a dog at anyone who looks at Kure." Hoshi spoke up with a stupid look on her face. Karasu glared at her. "Hey, at least we get to train together because of them!" She yelled defensively. Karasu sighed and looked back to Swanpaw. "Moving on... how old are you? You definitely look a little older than us, are you almost finished you're training?" He asked. "Ooh yeah! Are you excited to be a Healer?" Hoshi questioned excitedly.
