Oakstar looked around,too, only now realizing how many cats and leaders there were. She had lots to do and only one more day!
“Lilystar,” she said, “we better get going!! You can look for more cats to Ally with. I'll do the same. How about we go back up together? I could meet you with my clan and we'll head’er. Tomorrow. I have another 3 cats with me — orange, silver and cream.”

Fritillarystar - Talking to Amberstar and Lionstar
Peace without justice is tyranny



She dipped her head politely and in turn did the same for the amber-eyed molly nearby. ''Nice to meet you.'' The tortoiseshell murmured, ears pricked as she slowly worked out that he dwelled far away in some sort of desert; sweltering and dusty. Flicking her tail to and fro, Fritillarystar's eyes squinted thoughtfully and she glanced momentarily at the lantern-like stars above. Fritillarystar's attention snapped back to Lionstar and she shuffled her paws thoughtfully. ''Well, I wish you luck; clans grow quickly thankfully.'' Fritillarystar turned to Amberstar, smiling politely. ''What about you? How's your clan?''

𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐍
Attending High Ranks: Honeystar, Birchnose, Crowcloud
Attending Low Ranks: Applenose, Dandeliontail, Hillfang, Nour, Patchcloud, Tipnose

Honeystar | tags: Morningstar of Caveclan (open to Hazestar)
Honeystar's ears twitched and her eyes narrowed. That molly had started a fight between three clans, something that could never truly been forgiven. What if Duckpelt's kits had been hurt? Or that Caveclan apprentice? But Morningstar was right in that there was no conclusive evidence...yet. "Perhaps one of us should speak to Emberstar privately," she suggested, "and ask if she knows where Frigidrose has been recently. If she's been on an abnormally large amount of hunting and border patrols, or simply has taken several walks alone with no good reason."

Birchnose | tags: Nightglow of Hopeclan
Birchnose chuckled as well. "With this many clans," she said, "there are bound to be repeat prefixes. Why, our medicine cat is named Crowcloud and Echoclan's medicine cat apprentice is named Crowpaw!" She cocked her head thoughtfully. "I haven't heard of Hopeclan. Is it new?" she asked.

Crowcloud | tags: Crowpaw of Echoclan
So she did have a family, thought Crowcloud, eyes softening. He wondered for a moment what Forestclan would be like without Honeystar. She had been the one to bring them all together, the one to give them a home, the one to give them a family. The clan would miss her when she was gone. That was a given.

"Forestclan is doing..." Crowcloud sighed. "Dawnstorm and Grayfur died a few moons ago, while Acornstream and Bramblebush may follow close behind. There was a badger attack and we're lucky that the apprentices all made it out safely. But," he said hurriedly, trying to rush past the painful topic, "prey is running well."

Applenose | tags: Cloudmask of Caveclan
Applenose laughed, a corner of his mind noting how pretty Cloudmask was when happy. "We've got every pelt color imaginable. Black, brown, ginger, gray. You name it, we've got it. Doesn't make it too easy to hide in the snow, but great for hunting and fishing. 'Cause," he said with a half-smile, "the prey thinks you're part of the light. And we've got one kit in the clan right now. Her name's Fritillarykit and she's been begging to leave camp so that she could play in the snow." He shook his head with amusement. "She doesn't know just how bad it would be for her, but she's still super cute."

Dandeliontail | tags: Firepath of Gustclan
Dandeliontail noticed a tom from another clan walking towards the clearing, and he wondered if he should go meet the other. It was his first Gathering, and Daisywhisker had stayed back with Briarwhisker (who everyone was sure would become his mate soon), both to mourn and to let those who hadn't experienced the Gathering too many times go. Well, this was a time to meet those from other clans, the warrior thought, so why not?

Dandeliontail padded up to the tom, tail twitching with nervousness. "Umm, hello?" he said quietly. "I-I'm Dandeliontail of Forestclan. What's your name?"

Hillfang | tags: Juniperpelt of Pineclan
Hillfang stifled a giggle. Secretive, huh? she thought, amused. "Yeah. Well, Forestclan's been here long enough for there to be..." She paused to count the number of litters there had been. "Ummm, three or four litters. So at least a third of our clan is clanborn at this point. I think. So," she said, shifting the topic, "what's Pineclan like? A lot of pine trees?" While her words and tone were in jest, there was nonetheless a hint of seriousness. While some clans were named after their founders, an equal number were named after the territory, a landmark, or a significant ancestor.

Nour | tags: Blossomstep of Gorseclan
Nour had been wandering through the crowd, looking for someone to catch his eye. A molly who had been staying around the edges looked interesting, and he went over to talk to her.

"Hello," he said politely. "How are you this fine night?"

Patchcloud and Tipnose | tags: Juniperfoot, Harespring of Caveclan
Tipnose dragged her brother over to a pair of warriors who smelled familiar. Probably a border clan, thought Tippnose. Ummm, Leafclan? Caveclan? Gustclan? The two warriors were leaning against each other, seemingly happy to simply watch the Gathering.

"Hi," said Tippnose boldly. "I'm Tippnose of Forestclan."

"And I'm Patchloud," her brother grumbled. "Her littermate." He wondered where his sister's boldness had come from. Perhaps it was from passing the assessments. She had lost her shyness shortly after becoming a warrior, and now rivaled Brightfang in chattiness.

"What're your names?" Tipcloud asked cheerily.

The leader kind of just wondered off, slowly drifting away to speak to other cats.

•Orchidstar is currently atop the leader's rock, watching the stars and moon above.

Orchidstar tags: Open! (Leaders)

•Batwing is with the deputies, shivering like a madman. He hates leafbare.

Batwing tags: Open! (Deputies)

"Haha, well it's good to meet you too!" He chuckled, adding a happy nod of head to emphasize. Charredfern settled down beside her, tail tip slowly twitching. "So, how're things going with you and Pineclan, hmm?" After a couple heartbeats, he quickly added, "Well, not to pry or anything. Just curious, no need to tell me if you don't uh.. want to!" His smile briefly faltered into a grimace at his words, but it was quickly pulled back up into a grin, albeit a bit of tenseness behind it now.

Charredfern tags: Daisystorm of Pineclan

•Hareflight seems to be rather on the bored side, trotting around the clearing restlessly.

Hareflight tags: Open!

Blossomstep flicked her ears over to catch the sound of the tom's voice. She smiled up at him, and purred back. "Well, I suppose I am doing well. " Blossomstep gently patted the spot beside her with her tail, beckoning him over. "And how might you be doing tonight?"

Blossomstep tags: Nour of Forestclan

•Cinderfall seems nervous, sitting stiffly at the edge of the gathering, eyes flickering around warily.

Cinderfall tags: Open!

•Greydusk is walking around the gathering, grumbling to himself.

Greydusk tags: Open!

•Newtcall is leisurely padding around the gathering, watching all the different cats that pass by.

Caveclan
Cats attending: Morningstar, Woolyfur, Cloudpool
Cats attending: Harespring, Juniperfoot, Cloudmask, Thymepool Spottedpaw, Mintpaw

Morningstar tagged with Honeystar(Forestclan)

Morningstar nodded slowly in agreement. “If one of us does this, we need to be careful not to accuse Frigidrose or Leafclan of anything. It would make Emberstar defensive and perhaps refuse to talk to us.” Pausing a moment, he added, “That incident earlier wouldn’t have endeared me to Emberstar but neither of us are likely to be her favorite cats. If you want me to speak to her, I will.”

Woolyfur is open

Cloudpool is open

Harespring + Juniperfoot tagged with Pathcloud + Tipnose(Forestclan)

The pair sat close together, Harespring’s dark grey fur and Juniperfoot’s tabby pelt pressed together as the pair enjoyed each other’s company. It had been several moons since they’d become mates and they were enjoying every moment. Except, perhaps, Shimmerpelt’s nagging. Shimmerpelt knew the pair eventually wanted kits but not so soon. Even so, she continued to ask them whenever she got the chance about it. Any mercy they got meant Shimmerpelt was talking to Sedgetail about becoming mates with Burrwhisker. And even though they felt for Sedgetail, both Juniperfoot and Harespring we’re relieved to have a bit of time alone together. Purring softly, they observed the gathering, one eye kept on the apprentices, since they’d promised Thymepool they’d help watch them.
Two warriors caught the pair’s attention and Juniperfoot mewed a friendly greeting. “Hi, I’m Juniperfoot and this is Harespring. We’re from Caveclan.” She said. Harespring nodded at them, noting the tom’s grumpiness with a slight tilt of his head. What was bothering him?

Cloudmask is reserved for Applenose(Forestclan)

The tom had a nice laugh, Cloudmask noticed as she blinked at him and it was surprisingly easy to speak to him. “As do we.” She murmured. “From solid greys and tabbies like Juniperfoot and Harespring over there, to any color you can think of. Though most of our brown and grey cats are tabbies so no solid coated cats there.” Cloudmask made a motion towards the happy pair who were now speaking to a new pair of cats. “She sounds adorable.” Cloudmask purred. “We have 7 kits,” She told him, eyes momentarily darkening when she remembered poor Maplekit. He shouldn’t have been killed. If only the clan had had some kind of warning about the badgers!
“Their mothers only let them in the snow briefly. When they see the signs that the kits are getting too cold, they bring them back into the den.”

Thymepool is open

Mintpaw + Spottedpaw tagged with Cloverpaw(Mapleclan)

The silver tabby tom led the way, the grey and white molly behind him. Their small size made it easy for the pair to slip through the mass of cats and make their way to a spot on the edge of the clearing. “There! Now we can find someone to talk to.” Mintpaw said, scanning the clearing. Eyes landing on a ginger tom who looked to be around similar ages, Mintpaw and Spottedpaw approached. “Hello!” The tom’s scent revealed that he was from Mapleclan, one of their border clans. “I’m Mintpaw and this is Spottedpaw. We’re Caveclanners.”

“I’m Oakstar of Oakclan,” Oakstar said, “And sure. I'm trying to Ally with as many clans as possible.”
Oakstar smiled.

||Stormclaw||Tags: Open to 21-30 moon old warrior || 26 moons|| She-cat
Stormclaw just looked around, looking for any attractive warrior toms that looked around her age.
(OoC: Stormclaw is up for a forbidden romance.

Gustclan
Cats attending: Heronstar F, Chubtail M, Harrierpelt M, Osierfang, Firepath, Martinwhisker, Merlinpaw, Cicelypaw, Ploverpaw


xxxx-snip-
xxxxSorting out the gathering party from Gustclan was a surprisingly stressful affair. She was hoping that her choices wouldn't make the gathering stressful, too. Heronstar stopped the group of Gustclan cats just before they reached the clearing, and spoke in the quietest voice she was sure they would all hear, giving her briefing for what was going on (which none of its subjects would hopefully realise was something she was doing just for the first time with them).
xxxx"Merlinpaw, I want your best behaviour. No pointless bragging, in case you're called out on it. You would never be able to live down the embarrassment. Cicelypaw, stay with your brother or a warrior, and if you think you've got lost, stand still so we can find you faster. Ploverpaw, actually try to interact with others, or it'll be a very boring evening for the both of you. Cicelypaw, I am sure, is very willing to give you the necessary encouragement."
xxxxShe gave all the apprentices (even Cicelypaw for a moment before realising it was pointless) a firm look, a sort of warning that they were indeed going to follow her instructions, and then she quickly spun around, tail high in the air, trying to look like she hadn't just had to brief her apprentices on how to behave, and lead the Gustclan party into the clearing properly.
xxxxAs usual, they were late. Why would that be a surprise by this point? Heronstar didn't even bother jumping up to the high rock, she was sure she wouldn't fit, and so headed towards the other leaders still hanging around on ground level.

[Heronstar is open]

xxxxChubtail was (for once) far more concerned about the risks of Heronstar's decisions than she was. Bringing Merlinpaw and their own kits was clearly a recipe for disaster, however she justified it to herself. They'd probably be picking up the pieces of their apprentices later in the night. Trying to keep his mind focused on being a deputy and on not falling into dad-mode was going to take a lot of effort.

[Chubtail is open]

xxxxHe felt almost a little dirty as he approached the other medicine cats. Sure, Heronstar had said that he could, in theory, actually have kits of his own if there still weren't any medicine cat apprentices around, but he had just acted on that without asking strict permission. And here were a load of cats who Starclan were openly communicating to who could maybe, therefore, work out why he probably looked a bit uncomfortable despite his best efforts.
xxxxHarrierpelt did his best not to look guilty as he approached the others.

[Harrierpelt is open]

xxxxOsierfang had chuckled at Merlinpaw's assertions that he never bragged (spoken under his breath) as they neared the other cats in the clearing. She was still smiling to herself as she made her way over to the other warriors, but, more importantly, she was keeping an eye out for Merlinpaw so she could step in in the case of the inevitable stupidity he was about to get himself in for.

[Osierfang is open]

xxxxFirepath's eyes stayed fixed on the potential troublemakers from his clan until he almost jumped at being addressed by another tom. He tried not to show his surprise as he looked across to where the voice had come from, a light ginger-y coloured tom, almost cream, with hazel eyes.
xxxx"Firepath. Formerly of Lunarclan, now of Gustclan." It felt odd not including where he was born. Lunarclan didn't exist any longer, so he didn't have any issues with potentially conflicting loyalties and anyone could know that, but he'd been born expecting to be Fire- of Lunarclan, and the idea had stuck. "I've only been to one gathering before, so it's all a bit unfamiliar. The other tom's nervousness was fairly apparent, so he said that to at least provide some form of reassurance.

[Firepath is talking to Dandeliontail of Forestclan]

OoC: Sorry for taking ages, I was doing the map much of yesterday and was out this morning too, so this is the first time I've had to respond!

xxxxMartinwhisker had never been to a gathering before, not since joining Gustclan, not since becoming a warrior in his clan that had broken down many moons back, and not as an apprentice. He jolly well wasn't going to be telling Firepath that he had less experience at gatherings than the newly named warrior. As if to prove his point, he walked right into the crowd of warriors (while Firepath stayed milling near the edge), tail high to show his (fake) confidence, and started speaking to the first unoccupied cat he found.

[Martinwhisker is open]

xxxxPff, what pointless bragging? What bragging? It wasn't bragging if you really were
awesome, amazing, and frankly, now he thought of it, devilishly handsome too. If you had to lie to make it the case (and Merlinpaw would assure anyone that he wasn't lying), then it was bragging. Merlinpaw, of course, did not brag. Of course. He just... wouldn't be telling the best of his stories to all the other apprentices.
xxxxAfter all, it wouldn't make sense for other clans to know exactly what they were up against when they messed with Gustclan. It made sense to have some points about his brilliance kept secret.
xxxxMerlinpaw positively strutted up to the group of apprentices, trying to almost personify the idea of "fashionably late" to a set of cultures which had probably never even heard of it.

[Merlinpaw is open]

xxxx"Stop shoving me, and just move yourself, I know you can go faster!" Cicelypaw was long since fed up of her brother's stupid patronising protectiveness, but for all intents and purposes, he was her eyes (a rubbish pair of eyes), and she was scared (though she would never admit it) of getting lost in the woods and encountering another dog and it finishing off the work it had started on her tail... She wasn't going to be trying to ditch him unless it proved necessary for the sake of relieving boredom and thus maintaining sanity. "Or do you like being scratched?"
xxxxEven though Cicelypaw was terrible at actually aiming her blow, Ploverpaw didn't, so he stopped his stupid head-butting and actually did his job of guiding her in his own stupendously over-cautious way.

[Cicelypaw and Ploverpaw are open]

OoC: Martinwhisker and Osierfang are both open for forbidden relationships, though I suck at writing romantic things, so if you want to take either of them up with that, you have been warned about my skills for RP-ing them together. But they're open.

✧ mapleclan
[ foxstar, briarleap, frostnose, vixenbelly, heatherpaw, cloverpaw and fogkit are attending ]

xxxfoxstar - ♂ - with other leaders - no tags

foxstar led his clan-mates down a hill to enter the gathered crowd of cats. there was fewer mapleclaners attending this gathering, and one of them was even a kit. but much to his mother's disapproval, the little fogkit had to come along. he was the only cat to fully understand frostnose's signing. starting to piece together a speech for the announcements in his mind, the ginger tom hopped onto the leader's rock and sat down comfortably near it's middle.

xxxbriarleap - ♀ - with other deputies - no tags

briarleap walked through the crowd of cats with a seemingly unperturbed calm. she sat down in the deputy group, alone in a corner, not saying a word. she curled her tail over her paws and continued her endless reflection on recent events in her clan, completely unaware of her surroundings.

xxxfrostnose - ♂ - with other medicine cats - maplepaw of pineclan, fogkit of mapleclan

frostnose held the apprentice's curious glare and guessed she had figured it out by now. fogkit continued to sign what they were saying, and the medicine cat quietly watched the young cats speak.

xxxfogkit - ♂ - with medicine cats - maplepaw of pineclan, frostnose of mapleclan

"nice to meet you too." fogkit didn't speak this much at home, but he enjoyed speaking to maplepaw. she seemed to be as shy as he was, so for once he didn't feel like he was talking too slowly. "pineclan? aren't you one of the biggest clans around?"

xxxcloverpaw - ♂ - mintpaw and spottedpaw of caveclan

cloverpaw looked up when a cat spoke to him. he hadn't heard them approach, so they're sudden appearance slightly startled him. "oh, hello. i'm cloverpaw from mapleclan. nice to meet you two. caveclan? don't we border each other?"

Amberstar cleared his throat for his announcement to make sure everyone was listening, he looked over to Windflight and Wolfmoon before beginning his announcement, "name's Amberstar, I'm from Badgerclan, so far I only have 2 cats, but I believe my clan will be strong in the future.. Any clans wishing to ally with us are welcome" he announced, it felt weird to have less cats than the others, but he ignored it
