private A BLADE TO THE DANCE ROUTINE ✦ bloody mary

[DOEBLAZE]

Miraculously, the capering white demon who'd attacked Butterflytuft's friend has somehow become her charge. The timing is more blessed than the assignment, at least. Cloudypaw is nearing warriorhood, enough so that she trusts him to head off with a pack of other apprentices to the Sandy Ravine with a supervisor while she handles the new one.

Swishing her tail for @BLOODY MARY to fall in step as they proceed through the nonexistent undergrowth, a leaf-fall chill nips at her pink nose despite the sun's place flawlessly in the center of the cloudy sky, sending occasional shafts of gold through the grey.

StarClan, give me patience.

Luckily, she tends to have that in spades, excepting a few familiar faces. She stops once they're isolated enough, lest her charge's cackling disturb someone else's prey. " So, " she says, turning and taking a seat on bunched haunches, nodding for the other to do the same if she so pleases. " Tell me what you already know. About anything—hunting, fighting, climbing. "

" The latter's especially important. Most of SkyClan does our best work in the trees, myself included. " She rolls the tension out of one sinewed forelimb, an old scar paining her in light of the morning's fog, now burnt away; the ache lingers. Her eye flicks to the other's grinning visage; jury's still out on how she feels about this strange cat. " It's not the end of the world if you have no experience, though. My last shadow had none when we started. "

[BLOODY MARY]

Look at her! Doing the impossible; leaving tracks in places she should have never ended up in... They'll eat something like you, he had told her. How stupid would he feel glimpsing this: the dog trailing after something so much smaller, hah! Already, she's learned much... like: being tiny did not make you prey. This one would be a fool to sink teeth into the likes of her. No, she had some ways to go, before she earned such a privilege. The promise has tied a tether 'round her pale snout. Her grin is close-lipped, pinching her eyes. She'd work hard for what she wants. Oh, certainly, she would... Like a lost little duckling, she trails after her tail.

Bloody Mary follows her lead. Oh, she can't sit dainty-like the way she did. Her spine curves and her shoulders slouch. The dust needs time to settle once she's sat. They're matching, she notices; the bobs of their tails... Oh, had SkyClan seen this, when they deigned her shadow? Not even the gnats buzzed without purpose, she supposed... She'd be a kind corpse for them. Sweet piece of rotting fruit. " Anything? " she breathes. Exciting suggestion- her lids press slime along bug-eyes. Ah, anything clan-like she means. Some difference there, yeah. She's ready though. S'been ready.

...Oh! Climbing. Wasn't ready for that, hah. That one's intrinsic, at least. A pink tongue swipes across front fangs. " A tree? " Half-growled, only 'cause she's thrilled. Pardon her... " A tree-! Oh no. V'climbed plenty, though. M'sure I could figure it good... Climbing a thing's like climbing any other thing, huh? " Expectant is her gaze upon her, eyes suddenly ample and ears pert. Pink lips peel back to show teeth in her grin. " I could show you. " There's bird-quickness in the turn of her head, scouting for a subject.

" I've got good teeth. I'll kill somethin' for you, if you let me, " she giggles. Something to kill, something to climb- Claws were crucial for either. She had a good set, she'd like to think. Good for a maggot, anyways. At the slumbering forest, her eyes do pry.

  BLOODY MARY ⬪ KITTYPET. SHE - HER - HERS. 24 MOONS.
  

  A dog-like woman. Large, with bulk in some places, and only lean muscle in others. Elegant at some angles, acutely strange looking at others. Has a longer, wolfish muzzle and gleaming dog teeth near-always on display due to an overbite. Skull presses insistent against her skin. Eyes are almost too - large, and not all sunken in her skull. Has large, tufted ears. Polydactyl, with a curved spine and recently-chopped tail.
