Such a small group accompanied Sorrelstar to the gatherin, and no cat quite knew why. Perhaps she had judged it best to let most of her clan stay and rest and recover from recent incidents, or perhaps some cosmic figure who controlled their lives was lazy and wanted not to control a whole hecking handful of cats. But whatever the reason, the weather was hot and practically unbearable, and those who had attended wished they were back at camp swimming in the river. Or at least Momo still did. The bobtail was panting as Beechclan finally made their way into the clearing, not overexerted but certainly overheated. She missed the water, it's cool touch against her felt as if she were floating in air. But air could never compare to her water- especially not muggy air like this! Why did I even ask to come? I could be late night fishing or exploring or- Oh yeah! Out of the corner of a sapphire eye, Momomoon caught sight of a certain medicine cat from a certain clan who she may or may not have seen on a certain day and subsequently had certain dreams. The she-cat had broken off from the group before Sorrelstar had even dismissed them and quite happily totted up to Honeyfur. "Hey Honey! You look nice tonight, you have an herb to keep from getting all ruffled and sweaty?" She chirped to the Thicketclan cat, grinning broadly. Anything Honeyfur had said previously had been forgiven and forgotten a while back. Hey, if you like the rude snappish type you have to be willing to put up with the rude and snappish!

Momomoon- Tagging Honeyfur

Sorrelstar squinted over at the tom addressing her. He was familiar, but didn't look like any of the leaders she was familiar with, unless she had already forgotten her allies faces? For a moment the leader was confused before her brain recognized the face as Foxfoot of Blueclan. In no time at all there was a large grin that the she-cat did not feel stretched across her muzzle. Blueclan was an ally, and one must keep up appearances after all! "We are doing well!" Sorrelstar purred in that too-high-to-be-quite-real way of hers, "Thanks to Blueclan's help in the war we are recovering quite well! And Blueclan? How is Tawnystar, is she here?"

Sorrelstar- Tagging Leaders' Rock

Malloweyes had made it her job to scout out potential converts in the midst of the gathering. The elder knew exactly what to look for; ambition- but not too much that it became self-righteous fanaticism. Self-loathing, that hunch to a shoulders that indicated you thought you were nothing. A simple flicker in the eyes that betrayed one's cruelty. And of course, there were those rare cats who simply seemed to be looking for her as trouble always did. In fact, she spotted one right now. "Why don't you go visit your friend Sharkfang? I have some business to attend to." Her warrior entourage grinned just as his namesake might before stalking off in search of a certain she-cat. Malloweyes simply padded up to her target and made herself clearly available. "You look lost my dear," she purred to Littlestep, "Perhaps I can help you find your way."

Spotting the more reasonable of the Shade Sisters plodding her way, Malloweyes raised her tan tail in greeting. "Ahh Nettlefoot, so pleased you could join us.I have so much news to share with you."

Malloweyes- Tagging Littlestep

Sharkfang gave the departing Nettlefoot a small, satisfied smile, thanking her for giving him and her sister some room. It was a good thing that she seemed to like him or Sharkfang would have likely been facing more scratches than he was willing to get this close to Thistlethorn. But here he was, very close and very alone with her, well, as one could be in a crowd of different cats of different clans. "Oh I'm glad you like, because I very much like what I see too," He dropped his purr to a low murmur, bringing his mouth down to Thistlethorn's ear once more before adding, "Hopefully we can arrange it sooner rather than later, red certainly is your color. Now-" The tom straightened up, and untwisting his tail from the she-cat's, lay it across her shoulders instead. "What would you like to do my dear? Get to know each other more? Terrorize a couple of apprentices? Find somewhere nice and quiet?"

Sorrelclan

Cats attending-
Russetstar | leader | with leaders / talking to...
Heronstream | med cat | open
Kesteltalon | warrior | open
Lillypaw | apprentice | open
Rainpaw | med cat apprentice | open

Russetstar walked to the leaders and sat near a group of the conversing ones. He flinched as a cat jumped up behind him. He turned to them. "Hello, who are you?" (Sunny, hi)

Kestreltalon stood beside Lillypaw, standing proundly beside his apprentice. She paced nervously beside him. "I've never seen so many cats." She whispered, holding her tail close to her hind quarters. He turned to comfort them.
"As our clan grows there may be as many as these clans."
"Someday." She whiskerer her tail. "It still makes me nervous."

Heronstream walked with Rainpaw closely following behind. Her fur was spiked and her ears were flattened. Heronstream took notice of this but spoke not word of comfort, instead he slowed his step and matched her step. Her fur lowered slightly.

Cats attending: Foxfoot, Mallowpool, Thrushwhisker, Stonefur, Gingerstorm, Snowpaw.

foxfoot purred, his amber eyes gleaming. "i'm happy to hear you're doing well. of course, we were happy to help." his chest puffed in pride as he replied, "she isn't here tonight, she gave birth to our four healthy kits." his eyes shifted as he said the word our, and hoped the leader hadn't noticed. his gut was telling him that he shouldn't give away any secrets to this leader, but he shook it off.
foxfoot- with the leaders. tagged; sorrelstar of beechclan.

mallowpool glared at anyone who approached him, his heart still hurting from when tawnystar refused him. and picked the deputy, the safe option. he knew he was the one that made her even have a choice, but he could be rational later. now, he was hurting, his heart bleeding out.
mallowpool- with the medicine cats. tagged; open.

thrushwhisker and gingerstorm sat together once again, their voices hushed as they gossiped about the other clans. their fur brushed together as they huddled, watching the others with gleaming eyes.
thrushwhisker and gingerstorm- with the warriors. tagged; open.

stonefur looked at snowpaw, who refused to make eye contact with the grey tom. he sighed and decided to try and make friends in other clans, he had none in his own. "whatever." he walked a bit away from the surly apprentice and hoped someone would come and talk to him.
stonefur- with the warriors. tagged; open.

snowpaw huffed in annoyance as he felt stonefurs eyes on him. the grey tom had never apologized for being so rude when they had found him, and as such, snowpaw hadn't forgiven him. he looked around and wished that someone would help him out of his horrific fate of boredom.
snowpaw- with the apprentices. tagged; open.

It warmed the deputy to see Ramhorn so clearly excited for the birth of his kits, he was glad that the tom cared about his family this much. Yet he couldn't help but feel sorry that he was so far away from them as well. Rowanpelt glanced around to make sure they were out of earshot before responding. "She was tired when I left, but uh, I guess kitting takes a lot of energy out of you." He began, an awkward chuckle leaving him before continuing. "She's fine though, no worries. She had five kits: three toms and two mollies." He mewed pridefully over PineClan's newest members and for the fact that his best friend delivered such a large litter without much trouble.
[ rowanpelt ; ramhorn of echoclan ]

Hearthflame always left a positive effect on the PineClan medicine cat, there was something about the tom that left Weaselstorm feel more open and relaxed despite being in places where he felt the need to be on guard such as the Gathering right now. Shadepaw let a tiny smirk play on her muzzle as she noticed the tenseness leave her mentor's shoulders as he heard Hearthflame's greeting. She decided to let him speak first, as there was no doubt that's what he wanted. Weaselstorm smiled at his friend, who probably didn't see it given the tom was now staring at his paws. "Likewise, it's great to see you again Hearthflame." He meowed gently, surprising Shadepaw as she had never heard him speak in such a tone back home. She resisted the urge to giggle before mewing a greeting of her own. "It's been a while~"
[ weaselstorm, shadepaw ; hearthflame of soulclan ]

Mintstar signaled for her cats to join the clearing below with her tail, waiting until every one of her own joined the rest of the Clans until she padded towards the Highrock, feeling a bit out of place as the other leaders conversed with themselves casually while she didn't feel close enough to engage conversation with anyone.

𝓶𝓪𝓹𝓵𝓮𝓬𝓵𝓪𝓷 - "falling down is part of life. getting back up is living."

foxstar walked into the maze of cats, a slight frown on his face. his mate briarleap was due any day now, but the stubborn she-cat has insisted for him to go. "i'll be fine, i have smokeleaf with me and i feel great. go on to the gathering." the ginger tom shook his head trying to shake his nervosity away. "she wouldn't want me worrying because of her." foxstar climbed up onto the rock with the other leaders, saying hello to everyone.

[ with the other leaders, talking to... ]

littlestep looked up to the cat that had spoken to her. the elder's pelt color and striking eyes fit the description of her spy. "thank you for your offer, but i am not lost. i was simply looking for the queen of cruelty herself, and i think i have found her. malloweyes, is it?" not waiting for an answer, the black she-cat turned to look at the new arrival, apparently one of the 'shade sisters'. "and you are neettlefoot? i have heard quite a lot about you and your sister as well."

Thicketclan
Cats Attending: Briarstar, Silvershade, Honeyfur, Morningleaf, Jayleap, Nour, Applepelt, Foxpoppy, Mintpaw, Beetlepaw,
Forbidden relationships open: Morningleaf, Jayleap, Nour, Applepelt, Foxpoppy, Beetlepaw

"Well, good to meet you Spiderstar!" Briarstar turned back to Honeystar and smiled, glancing down at his clanmates happily. "Thicketclan's doing good. Our first kits, born between our deputy and one of our warriors have been apprenticed!" Only two had come today, thanks to a prank gone wrong the other day. "The greenleaf heat has left us alone, probably because of all the trees we sit under! But's it's definitely been dryer than usual."
[tagged: honeystar of forestclan, spiderstar of swallowclan, open]


Mintpaw was thankful that she had been forgiving of his slip-up, and answered her question dutifully. "I'm Mintpaw, an apprentice of Thicketclan." He perked his ears curiously, eyes sparking happily at having someone to talk to. There were so many cats around, he was afraid that none of them would want to talk, or were to busy to notice a tiny apprentice. He quietly mewed, "What's your clan like? Caveclan.. That sounds neat."
[tagged: poppypaw of caveclan, open]

Honeyfur sat on the edge of the gathering, tail wrapped tightly around her paws. Morningleaf had already run off, who could blame her, to talk to somecat. She shrugged and leaned against the tree beside her. Then, she saw a familiar bobtailed cat move towards her in the crowd. "Momomoon?" She whispered questioningly, tail twitching nervously. When Momomoon complimented her, she felt her heart flutter a bit, managing to choke out. "Uhm, thanks.. No herbs, I guess." But, after slamming her heart down and shoving it back into its corner, she continued with a grimace. She peered past Momomoon to scan the crowd, nervously looking for any watching eyes. "But what do you think you're doing? This is public, Momo!"

Gustclan
Heronstar, Chubtail, Harrierpelt, Myrtleclaw, Argusheart

Heronstar noticed another fellow leader who appeared about as uncertain of herself as she did herself. She was a rather pretty molly, grey and white, who she didn't recall from the last gathering- but then, there had been so many new faces there that it should be no surprise that she couldn't remember everyone.
Heronstar walked up to her fellow leader, moving alongside to talk so as to be out of the way of the other leaders (who all seemed to know each other as far as she could tell). It would be a good move to at least make acquaintances with various leaders, in case they needed the support at some stage- if not just to be able to make friends at all.
"Greetings. I'm Heronstar, from Gustclan. It's a little over-whelming to see so many unfamiliar faces, isn't it?"
[@solgaleo, Heronstar talks to Minstar of Pineclan]

Harrierpelt looked around for his friend from the medicine cat gathering, Brackenflower. But he couldn't see her. It might just be that there were too many other cats in the way. He sighed slightly. In lieu of meeting his friend again, at least meeting other cats would be a good idea.
He noticed that there was a white tom cat among the medicine cats who looked rather... sad, although he was unsure why.
In his mind, mental wellbeing and physical wellbeing being just as important, Harrierpelt stepped up to the tom.
"Feeling alright?" he asked, skipping straight past formal greetings to get to what he thought the tom probably wanted.

I'm assuming each of you are okay with me taking an open cat for interaction ;3

Caveclan

Cats attending: Morningstar, Woolyfur, Cloudpool

Cats attending: Rowanfur, Ebonywing, Dappleleaf, Poppypaw, Tigerpaw, Duskpaw

Morningstar with the leaders

Arriving at the gathering, Morningstar flicked an ear back to hear his warriors instructing their apprentices about the gathering protocol before allowing them to go on their own. Approval flashing in his gaze, the tom headed to his spot with the rest of the leaders.

Woolyfur with the deputies(Birchnose)

Woolyfur headed to the other deputies, acknowledging them with a nod. He said a polite hello and sat down to observe the rest of the gathering. Like the rest of the Caveclan warriors, Woolyfur tried to keep an eye on the three apprentices they'd brought. Tigerpaw in particular could get rather aggressive sometimes.
Woolyfur looked at the molly who'd spoken to him and gave a small nod. "I am. Woolyfur's the name."

Cloudpool + Dappleleaf with med cats/ Crowcloud

Cloudpool nodded, his ears flicking quietly. "We do so it isn't surprising you've come across a few patrols." He murmured. "That border is a really good place to find chervil too."

Rowanfur + Ebonywing are tagged with Acornstream

Boldened by the mentions of her kits, Ebonywing was not nearly so quiet as she could be. "Thank you. His sister, Willowpaw is just as wonderful." She purred. Not to be outdone, Rowanfur chimed in, Ebony's not the only one with lovely kits. Morningstar and I have two beautiful sons. Sunstripe and Emberslash."

Tigerpaw, Duskpaw are with Applepaw

"I'm 11 moons and I became an apprentice when I was six moons with my sister." Tigerpaw replied. "Along with Mistpaw, Willowpaw and I are the oldest of the apprentices." Slowly seeming to grow less nervous, Duskpaw chimed in, "Ashpaw's only a moon younger than Tigerpaw and Willowpaw though. Then Poppypaw, Stormpaw, and I are all the same age." He told Applepaw.

Poppypaw is with Mintpaw

"Nice to meet you!" Poppypaw purred. The dilute calico tilted her head curiously, wondering what to say. "Umm what do you want me to tell you about us? She asked. What's your clan like? That was an awfully vague question.

Caveclan

Sedgetail (tagged with Tumbleclan)
Morningstar
Woolyfur
Hawkfeather

Relief fizzing through her body, Sedgetail leapt up and darted over to her clanmates, greeting them with a happy mew. Hawkfeather nosed her affectionately, while Woolyfur welcomed her back with a purr. Morningstar's gaze was fond but stern. "That's enough for now. We'll celebrate your return back at camp." He promised. Turning back to Sagestar, he murmured, "And yours. Good luck on your journey and May Starclan light your path." With a flick of his tail, the orange tabby turned to leave. Sedgetail glanced back, her gaze finding Burrwhisker's. Was this the end? Was she never going to see him again?

(Whelp, Morningstar and Woolyfur were in two different places this post.)

"Oh, haha, sorry! I meant what your territory is like." Mintpaw hummed for a moment, quickly adding, "Thicketclan is like a swampy forest. It's kind of muddy, but it's okay."

"Oh okay!" Poppypaw nodded. "Caveclan's mostly forest though our south border is plainland. We have a river running through our territory too." Poppypaw explained. Making a face, the molly shook her head. "A muddy forest? Yuck! I hate mud. It's really sticky and gross."
