|| Lilypool ||
{{Lilypool rolled over in her feather-lined moss nest, sighing at the knowledge that she had to get up eventually. Her warm breath scattered tiny shreds of leaf and stem, the remains of the daisy she'd used yesterday. Daisy, she mentally groaned. Good for aches and bones, but scarce in leaf-bare when the elders and senior warriors need it the most. Heaving herself forward, the delicate blue feline sat up straight, feeling the cool air nip at the tips of her ears and nose. I should find more marigold before it dies out, she thought, stretching a leg to lick its white toes. Perhaps juniper berries as well. I haven't any parsley, but the Clan doesn't have any queens at the moment either. Juniper, yes; parsley, no, she recited in her mind, the thoughts of herbs mixing with the concentration of lapping the moss and leaf scraps out of her fur.
|| Brooksplash ||
{{Brooksplash leaped and thrashed, juggling her footing and an enormous slippery fish in the stream. With a silver paw outstretched, she batted it in the air while balancing on her hind legs. Just as she was about to clamp her jaws around its body, it twisted in midair and the tailfins slapped her muzzle on its way back into the water. Whiskers dripping, she dropped back down onto all fours and hauled herself out of the black stream, the current not bothering her at all. She caught a glimpse of Nettlestream farther up the bank, and despite the cold of the water, her fur prickled. I hope she didn't see that! the young spotted warrior thought. When she was attempting to catch the fish, she was having fun trying out a new technique rather than trying to kill it. She thought of her hunting expeditions as an adventure, an exploration of new opportunities, but the StreamClan deputy might not see it that way.
