TAGS — It's normal. It's all normal, a fine time underground, until it isn't. Smokestep has been here before. As the tunnel quakes and dirt rains upon him, the conversation sprints ahead and away from him in the shape of Firepaw, hardly four moons old and more reckless than she'll ever be...

TAGS — It's been a long time since he's seen Icebreath. It's been a long time since anyone has seen Icebreath, truly, or at least it feels that way; though the rebellion was still fresh in WindClan's history, it feels moons away now. Smokestep still isn't sure what he feels about it. Obviously...

TAGS — Smokestep brings up the back of the patrol, largely wordless, short ears swiveling in the pitch black as he follows the conversation. Mouseflight signals them forward; Pinkpaw spouts nonsense (albeit entertaining nonsense); Scorchstreak chides her apprentice with an amused anecdote. He...

TAGS — He's never liked monsters. He's sure that most cats would feel the same; their raucous screeches hurt his ears, their flashy pelts burn his eyes, they stink like no other animal he's ever seen. Their trekking can be felt beneath the tunnels for fox-lengths before cats exit to the surface...

TAGS — He carries a vole from the fresh-kill pile across their peach-pit hollow, covered in ash and dirt, stinking of his own namesake. He carries it limping, forelegs aching from the recent strain, until he's seated a few tail-lengths from the mouth of the medicine den. There he settles...

don't talk down to me. don't be polite to me. don't try to make me feel nice. don't relax. i'll cut the smile off your face. you think i don't know what's going on. you think i'm afraid to react. the joke's on you. smokestep — 10 months — tunneler — tags don't talk down to me. don't be polite...

TAGS — Smokepaw hadn't been there to eavesdrop when Vulturemask had given his prophecy; he thinks he must have been too busy with his tunneling duties, the only good excuse to miss something as big as a new prophecy, but in hindsight he isn't really sure. He's heard murmurings of it here and...

TAGS — Smokepaw feels little of the tension that Icepaw carries upon her shoulders. WindClan had only gotten stronger since the last gathering- they had no more sick, they had ratted out the weakest of their warriors, and- if he were to say so himself -there would be a rather impressive batch of...

TAGS — "Best is a stretch," Smokepaw rumbles below his breath when he happens upon his fellow tunneler. He still struggles to see Silverpaw as an apprentice, despite the name he wore- the one that Sootstar gave him. Maybe even she could be prone to lapses in judgement. But really, Firepaw wasn't...

TAGS — Here comes the worthless loser of a tom now. Smokepaw is drawn by the commotion, having completed his tunneling duties this morning (lately he's been trying to get through them faster and faster)- he'd seen Dazzlepaw and Shinepaw down there ever earlier than him, but only now does he...

TAGS — Firepaw runs to his aid and the gasoline fury reignites in his veins. He's got this- he's small, it will be hard to fight against Coldsnap, but he's got it, he's defending his mentor -there's no reason for her to interfere, right? But she does, and she tears a chunk of flesh from...

TAGS — / cw brief mention of a corpse in 3rd paragraph Smokepaw keeps his eyes on his mentor as they walk single file; presses his paw to the crags every once in a while to mark the scent. He tries not to seem like he's hanging off each word she speaks like a cliff. Even though Sootstar is his...

TAGS — He's already having a hard time sleeping, so when Icepaw's hoarse shout splits the night, he finds himself grateful for an excuse to be up. Dandelionwish is a traitor to WindClan, plain and simple. It was only a matter of time before he was punished for it, and frankly, Smokepaw is...

Before roleplay:[/color] — although he was originally born outside of the clans (not that he is aware of that fact), smokepaw now considers himself a very loyal windclanner — smokestep and his siblings were all apprenticed to be tunnelers at their mother's behest. however, firefang caused an...

TAGS — Icepaw's voice startles him initially. He didn't think anyone would really be milling about in this weather, but then here he sits in the snow despite it all. Smokepaw's ears twitch and he turns to look at his friend, the puffs of clouded breath obscuring their face when they speak...
