Harestar X - male - 56 moons - leader - tagged: Isopodstar(Squidclan) Harestar nodded, musing thoughtfully over the tom’s words. Squidclan was very young, far younger than Caveclan. “Not for long, the time goes faster than you’ll expect.” He smiled, thinking back to his kithood. He and his sister Sedgetail had been the first kits born to a very young and newly formed Caveclan. It had been a much smaller clan then. “For me as well, and I’ve been attending these since I was a young apprentice. I never imagined that I’d one day be standing here as a leader.” His blue gaze flickered over the cats, fondness lighting his gaze when he spotted his daughters, Mosspaw and Rainpaw. He had not imagined his beloved family then either. Turning his attention back to Isopodstar the tom tilted his head with interest. “How do you like being a leader so far? It must not be easy forming a clan from scratch the way you’ve done.”
Mosspaw X - female - 12 moons - medicine cat apprentice - tagged: Hyrax’s Bounce(the Order of the Hyena) “Oh that makes sense,” Mosspaw replied thoughtfully, ignoring the wary glance he’d cast at her. She understood and if it had been her being asked to open up, she would’ve been wary as well. The molly thought back to her first gathering, how nervous and scared she’d been and gave Hyrax’s Bounce a sympathetic chuckle. “I understand, gatherings are a lot. Caveclan’s not particularly small, and although we are pretty close, gatherings are a whole different beast.” She frowned, gazing over the clearing to pick out her clanmates. She wasn’t close with every cat, but even those she didn’t have a close relationship with, such as Narcissus or Echopaw, Mosspaw felt completely sure she could trust in all of them. “That must be hard,” She mewed softly, “I’m not sure I would like that. It wouldn’t feel safe.” Realizing her admission might sound bad, like an insult to the tom, Mosspaw hurriedly added, “I’m sorry, I’m not trying to imply anything. I’m sure your clan is very safe.” Internally, the young medicine cat was horrified, hoping to Starclan she wouldn’t drive him away with her lack of tact. “It is hard imagining that kind of life.” Mosspaw mewed, “It sounds so different from ours.”
Narcissus X - male - 38 moons - warrior - tagged: open His first gathering since joining the clan! Narcissus’ tail was curled in delight and his green eyes flared with pride. What an honor it was to be chosen to attend a gathering and it was no surprise that Harestar would have chosen him. After all, he’d been the one to bring Ferngaze into the clan when she was an apprentice. “Why hello Nyx, it is lovely to meet you!” He declared, dropping into a deep bow. “I am Narcissus of Caveclan.” The silver ticked tom nodded, as if he knew all about what she was talking about. “That must be a pretty harsh life,” Narcissus replied, blinking. For once, he was completely unsure, a lack of experience in territories such as Nyx’s preventing him from being able to relate a story of his bravery(true or not). “I suppose it is a little,” Narcissus replied instead, adding, “We live in a cave within a thick forest so we’re not usually in the open either.” There was the meadow valley south of camp, but Narcissus’s patrols hadn’t sent him venturing that way lately. “Tunnels huh?” Narcissus tilted his head thoughtfully, “What do you do if they flood during the rainy seasons?”
Rainpaw + Softpaw X
X - females - 12 and 11 moons - apprentices - tagged: Coalpaw(Canaryclan) Rainpaw eyed the tom nervously but as he didn’t seem to be at all upset by their conversation, slowly relaxed. “Sorry, we don’t mean to be rude,” Softpaw apologized, “but are you sure that bird is okay?” She eyed the canary with a frown. “Birds… don’t normally behave like that.” Rainpaw nudged her denmate warningly but Softpaw didn’t seem to notice, her purple gaze locked on the bird. “Is he a pet then?” Rainpaw asked Coalpaw curiously, “How did you get him to stay, that's really impressive.” She blinked, adding, “I’m Rainpaw and this is Softpaw. We’re apprentices from Caveclan.” Softpaw nodded, pride lighting her gaze. “Nice to meet you, Coalpaw! Do all of you have pet birds?”
