The young warrior couldn't quite get the incident involving Betonyfrost out of his mind. The desperate look in her eyes, the way she slunk near her bloodied scraps like a feral beast. Roosterstrut has never quite witnessed any of his clanmates, the folk he was raised by and with, act in such an unhinged manner. Leaf-bare has truly driven people to commit acts they were not proud of, yet others gossip about the she-cat — "She's unstable." They whisper. "She's crazy."
And yet, even after all these moons, Roosterstrut can still see Betonyfrost as his denmate, who provided him with a sense of comfort and reassurance following the tragic death of his father. "Betony...?" The glossy-eyed, young tom had sniffled aloud, furred cheeks damp with tears. "Can you stay? Please?" Those nights of settling by the mouth of the den and counting the stars above are still recounted vividly in the tom's mind.
Maybe he's only blinded by his own memories. However, he cannot bring himself to turn his back on someone he once considered a good friend, even after all of the outbursts and aggressions toward everyone. Roosterstrut had tried to approach her before, though to no avail. He didn't see why this time would be any different, but he wanted to at least try.
Roosterstrut lifts his head from the meager fresh kill pile, a toad dangling from his jaws. His belly is hollow like a log, yet he still pads on over in the ashen warrior's direction and meows, "Hey, uh, Betony," He's still used to calling his clanmates by their original names, a habit that he's slowly graduating from but still slips up with from time to time. Going from Rooster to Roosterstrut is still an adjustment as well. "You wanna share this with me?" Did she really deserve this after she savagely tore into that bird? Roosterstrut's gesture might earn some raised eyebrows from others, but Betonyfrost was an individual just like everyone else was, still a clanmate; maybe all she needed was to be shown some kindness.
