Greypool - Male - Medicine Cat - With: Sandpaw - Feeling: Excited & Concerned

Greypool took a deep breath. He had to be honest. "This isn't fun for anyone. And you're the first cat I've helped." He gulped nervously. If Sandpaw rejected him, he wouldn't be a good medicine cat, but if he accepted than this inexperienced cat would try his absolute hardest. "Do you wanna walk?" Greypool made a mental note to thank Applepaw and Acornstream later.

Yewclan



1. Yewstar slid into the gathering clearing, his pelt slightly fluffed out and his legs aching. But the oriental would not show weakness; he held his head high. Three days was a long way to travel, but the black tom braved through it, bringing his three strongest warriors, and leaving the rest of the clan behind. Figfur was close to kitting- his hackles raised slightly as he thought of the shecat- and Owl Flutter had to stay behind because a somewhat adept healer was needed in case the queen birthed while the clan was at the gathering. Yewstar had picked Houndheart and Applespeck to stay behind and guard them- both strong warriors. Howard decided to go with them- the laid-back tom felt that he had to 'prove' himself to Yewstar that he was worth keeping in the clan. The oriental had told Flurry he was allowed to come as well, but the shimmery tom shook his head nervously. Yewstar understood. His mate was about to give birth, after all. But who's mate is she now..? He didn't know, and at this moment it wasn't his problem. Eyeing a group of proud-looking cats atop a rock, Yewstar decided that that was where the leaders were sitting. He strolled over, leaping deftly onto the stone. It took him a moment to realize that the clans were making announcements, and after a brief lull of silence, the tom spoke up. "I am Yewstar, of Yewclan. You probably haven't heard of us- we are relatively new, and live quite a long way from this place. A three day journey, in fact, so excuse the appearance." The shorthair lapped at his chest for a moment before continuing. "We have our deputy, Thorntoes, and Foxpelt and Howard are somewhere in the crowd. Our queen- Figfur-" he paused for a beat. "Could not make the journey due to being close to birthing her kits, and stayed at camp with our medicine cat, two warriors, and.. her mate. Yewclan is thriving, and the arrival of the new kits will only strengthen us." He dipped his head respectfully. "Thank you for listening." Yewstar left out that Owl Flutter was technically only a medicine cat apprentice, but he didn't want cats to question where the full med was. He doubted other clans had spirits such as Flurry among them, as he didn't see any in the clearing. Or maybe they just don't go to gatherings...?


2. Thorntoes is open, sitting with the other deputies.


3. "I've never seen an otter before. Do they have brown fur like yours?" Foxpelt smiled in a friendly manner, curling his busy tail around his paws. "Yeah, we're pretty new... but we have eigh-.. seven cats already, and kits on the way because Yewstar went around and checked to make sure cats would actually join before he started it." The tom blinked. He almost said eight cats. Does Flurry really count as a cat..? I mean.. starclan kinda gave his mate a new mate, and he kinda hides from other cats. It took him four days just to appear around Howard. Maybe he's just shy..? Foxpelt shook his head to clear it. "What about Echoclan? Are you guys new? Then again, I uh.. don't know any other clans yet."


4. Howard is open, sitting in the general cat area.

Finally Sorrelstar stepped up to the edge of the perch. "Beechclan has been thriving. Tragically, we lost our deputy Sleetfoot to the river. But the river is still our friend and Dunpond has taken up our late deputy's mantle. We have found ourselves new cats and welcomed new kits. As well as old kits into clan life as apprentices. Pigeonpaw, Carppaw, and Sandpaw are among you today. I hope they will make good friends among their fellow cats." Even though she had abandoned pretense of simpleness, Sorrelstar still had appearances to keep up. And with that she stepped back.

{Sorrelstar- Leader's Perch, Open}

"Now the two of you behave yourselves. It's your first gathering so make your father, mother, and I proud okay?" "Sure dad- we won't cause any ruckus! None at all!" Dunpond raised an amused eyebrow at his youngest daughter's promise. The ever-present mischievous twinkle in her eyes had not been dimmed at all be the solemnity of the night. Which was good, let the pair of them have their fun. "I'll watch her," Sandkit told his father seriously, as was his way. "Well maybe cause a bit of ruckus- you're only 'paws for so long. Go have fun." And with the playful flick of their father's tail dismissing them, the pair disappeared into the crowd, and Dunpond went to take his place beneath the leader's perch.

{Dunpond- Beneath Leader's Perch, Open}

"So what if I'm the first cat you've helped? Everyone has a first- it doesn't matter." The fact that Greypool may have been worried didn't even occur to Sandpaw. He was a medicine cat, helping was what they did. "I just want to be fixed. But how's walking going to help?" Nevertheless the tom got to his paws to follow the larger tom, nodding at Applepaw and Acornstream as they arrived.

{Sandpaw- Applepaw, Russetpaw, Ivypaw, Mistpaw, Tigerpaw}

"What?!" Any sour feelings she might have been nursing towards Sandpaw were immediately forgotten in Carppaw's worry over him. "Where is he? What happened? How badly is he hurt? Take me there quick!" The she-cat bounced on her paws nervously, desperate to be taken to see her kin.

{Carppaw- Ivypaw}

Pigeonpaw had decided to stick by Malloweyes for her first gathering since Asptail wouldn't take her. The elder harbored mixed feelings on this, on one paw she had ample time to drive a deeper wedge between the apprentice and her mentor, but on the other she was no longer free to do any converting. Cackling and plotting murders would certainly disillusion her little puppet. "It really is too bad Asptail couldn't find the time to spare on you. A first gathering really is a monument. Oh well, we'll have our own fun won't we?" Pigeonpaw nodded enthusiastically up at her idol, who's returning grin was especially patronizing. Besides Malloweyes, Sharkfang was restless. He kept sheathing and unsheathing his claws with great impatience. "Looking for her hmm?" "Of course." "Well tell her the good news once you find her, I have a little one to mind." Malloweyes dismissed her ally with a flick of her well-groomed tail and Sharkfang shot off readily.

{Malloweyes & Pigeonpaw- Open}

"Ahh well," the tom just grinned again, "plenty in Beechclan to tide me over. Just listen to your mentor kid- she know's what's worst for you." He resheathed his claws and licked Thistlethorn's cheek in return of her gesture. "I'd do anything in my power for you my little devil. And soon, there's going to be an awful lot of it."

{Sharkfang- Nettlefoot & Thistlethorn}

"Honeyfur!" Momomoon rose to her paws as soon as she saw her friend, stepping towards her and nuzzling the medicine cat in greeting. Frostsong made an, "Oooh," noise but the she-cat just giggled and stuck her tongue out at him. "This is Frostsong! He's my best friend! Frostsong this is Honeyfur she's uh-" "The she-cat you were telling me about I presume?" The white tom had a mischievous grin on his muzzle, and while Momomoon flushed in protest she didn't actually mind.

"Because you can talk about anything." Greypool winked, edging away from the cats with the apprentice at his side. Maybe talking could help Sandpaw? "Like, if there's anything bothering you or something like that." He quickly corrected himself, so that no cat could accuse him on trying to get information about Beechclan.

Otterstream shook her head. "Echoclan isn't new. We've been around for a while. I don't know exactly how long though, I was born a while after the Clan was formed." She nodded up towards Squirrelstar on the leader's perch. "That's my mother."

Sandpaw padded quickly after the medicine cat, flicking his tail in goodbye to the other apprentices. "How would talking help my- oh." The tom paused in his tracks momentarily, then quickly sped up his pace to keep up with Greypool. "This has something to do with 'feelings' doesn't it?" He asked in a tone that would have been called accusatory if it wasn't so even. "Well you're welcome and try to explain that."

{Sandpaw- Greypool}

"What?!" Any sour feelings she might have been nursing towards Sandpaw were immediately forgotten in Carppaw's worry over him. "Where is he? What happened? How badly is he hurt? Take me there quick!" The she-cat bounced on her paws nervously, desperate to be taken to see her kin.

3. Foxpelt's eyes widened in awe. "Really? You're the daughter of the clan leader? Wow!" He shuffled his paws, trying to think of something he could use to continue the conversation. "Uh.. Yewclan doesn't really have any.. mated pairs.. except for I guess Yewstar and Figfur?" The tom paused, then quickly added. "But that's a special case. It's just.. weird."


4. Howard is open, sitting in the general cat area.

Cloudstar | Tom | Leader of Briarclan | Tags; other leaders(open)
Cloudstar watched and listened as all the leaders took their turn to say something about their clans. There was some interesting news about other clans but it seemed to be mostly common news; clans are growing and etcetera.

The pure white fluffy tom stood up now and padded a few steps forward to announce his clan "I am Cloudstar, the leader of the newly formed Briarclan. I am proud to say our ranks are growing and strong and will continue to do so." The tom then took a few steps back so the next leader can speak. Hopefully the next gathering he would have more information to gloat about but for now he did not want his clan to come off as weak.

Bouldershade | Tom | Deputy of Briarclan |
Tags; Maplewhisker of Sedgeclan, Thorntoes of Yewclan
"Yes this is my first gathering, but I have a feeling it will not be my last." Bouldershade meowed. Just then a molly joined them "Hello, I am Bouldershade of Briarclan." he said in a friendly manor. He heard Maplewhisker say the leaders were starting and listened but it seemed to be all the same.
────────────────────────────────────────
Owldust | Molly | Warrior of Briarclan |
Tags; [Briarwhisker, Dawnstorm]of Forestclan, Birchwing of Leafclan
"Wow that is great to hear! Every cat is treated fairly!" Owldust purred at that news. She knew her squished in face was different than others but these cats hadn't really seemed to notice. Her own clan mates didn't even seem to care and that made her happy. "Yarn sounds strange, can you find that in a forest?" but before they could answer she rambled on "I grew up by a stream and my brother and I use to always toss pebbles around. One time we had a contest to see who could make the biggest splash!" The only reason she remembered this so clearly was because that was the last day she had seen her family. Though she didn't share that part with them but there was sadness in her voice when she told them about the contest.

Owldust actually paused for a moment to listen to some of the leaders but when the information seemed to all be the same she turned back to her group "Hey Birchwing, how many cats from other clans have you met? I am sure you have been to more than one gathering.."

"Everyone in my Clan finds a mate pretty quickly. Most of them only have one litter and then they're done, except for my mother. She's had three litters.
