mottledove & 20 moons & female & she/her & skyclan perma-queen

Mottledove has thought long and hard on this, log before she'd approached. She'd asked bobbie to fetch blazestar, having taken not of whatever companionship they seem to share (she will not make guesses, make judgements, but she thinks one would be blind not to notice... something) and now she waits, nervously. She has tried, really she has, but every attempt at training has landed a failure. Balance wobbly, gait uncertain - she is soft, limbs frail from a life of careful oversight by her twoleg alone, her only glimpse of freedom at the end of a lead.

And, well, just look where that had landed her - with a mate who'd cheated on her, and a belly full of kits that had gotten her cast aside by her owners. Not that she could ever regret it, not now - she loves her kits, cannot blame them for wanting to be born, and is happy to have them. But now they are going to become apprentices - they have just crested four moons she thinks, it is only a matter of time. And where does that leave her? A cat who cannot hunt, who cannot fight - who jumps at every little noise and shadow when she strays from camp, even carefully accompanied by more experienced warriors.

"Blazestar," she says finally, greeting the tom once she is no longer alone. Its hard, she thinks, to look at him - nerves creeping in against her will. But she hardens her heart, steels it against her worries and doesn't let her voice quiver, doesn't let her body shake the way it wants. She needs to do this.

  • a fluffy she-cat with a mane of fur and a mottled cinnamon tortie pattern. she is missing half her back left leg leaving her at a disadvantage in most things. mottledove is very quiet and withdrawn, a gentle soul. she and the kits she cares for adorn her pelt with flowers and 'paints' made of plants.

Customarily, Blazestar is approached by his Clanmates while he is resting within his den, but Bobbie had been clear Mottledove wanted to talk to him elsewhere. Alone. Though surprised, the Ragdoll obliges; Mottledove seems the nervous sort, perhaps like Bobbie had been when he’d first befriended her.

Dark blue eyes find her soft, ember-flecked figure, and he greets her with his tail lifted behind him. “Bobbie said you wanted to speak with me alone?” He settles next to her, eyeing her warily. Suddenly, he wonders—and worries—if she is speaking to him about leaving the Clan. Perhaps she has seen the death, the destruction, and wishes to return to her kittypet life… “What is it?
