YOU THINK THAT YOU'RE THE MAN
✦ Something’s wrong with Stagpaw. While she’s normally standoffish and a bit nasty at times there’s an art to it and more importantly they’re not normally like that with kits. Yet they were rather snippy with Beetlekit, while they knew that she cared about training and work. Like a lot they’d never seen it get to the point where she’d but so blunt with a child. Houndpaw had heard whispers about other weird instances like that too where she had lashed out at times where they knew that they normally wouldn’t. She wasn’t sure what had happened but it was like their already clipped attitude shifted for the worse overnight. Any attempts that she made to talk to her went unnoticed too, which was just weird because the chimera never ignored them.
Even when at her most livid she would dignify Houndpaw with some kind of a response, sure that response was a warning hiss or yelling at them in some shape or form but that was a response. There was never… nothing. Houndpaw didn’t like it, quite frankly it was getting annoying- they wouldn’t admit to it being from a place of concern. As the day transitioned into night everyone had found their way to the apprentice den, taking up space in their nests and sleeping.
The chocolate smoke found that she couldn’t sleep though, tossing and turning in her nest until the moss had started to become an irritation to her pelt from the friction. With a sharp flick of her tail they decided that they were going to figure out what thorn was stuck in their friend's paw. Pushing herself up from her own nest she made quick work to pad towards Stagpaw’s, they noted the fresher looking moss in the nest with a smile. That dissipated into a frown as they walked closer and attempted to shove Stagpaw out of her own nest in a mirror of what the apprentice had done to her once before. “Move over, I’m bored” this wasn’t what they wanted to start this off with but if it was the only way to get the apprentice to acknowledge her then so be it. "Come look at the stars with me, it's clear tonight" she doesn't speak like it's a suggestion, rather a demand in an attempt to not have them try and get out of it.
