walking around camp, pretending to be all sad and pathetic, it was all getting a bit old. how long did one have to grieve? it was no secret she wasn't close with her mentor, practically despised the molly. still, crowpaw played the role of the sad apprentice who had witnessed an oh so unfortunate death. it was driving her crazy.

luckily, she found peace under the open sky. it wasn't much like her, taking time to just sit and look at the stars. however, here she didn't have to pretend. starclan knew of her crimes, they also knew what drove her to them. surely her reasoning was justified. many have done much worse for less. she was just looking out for herself, her future. they knew that. they had to.

a quick toss of her head over both shoulders confirmed that she was alone, so crow tilted her head back up, green eyes glittering with the stars above. "ma," she greeted the stars inwardly, flopping on her back into the fluffy snow to achieve a more comfortable position. "i do it all for you. i will be great for you, i won't let anyone in my way." she added onto her thoughts, hoping they were strong enough to reach the sky. talking to the mother she never met was becoming more and more common for the girl. the mother who had lost her life to grant crowpaw hers. maybe it was delusional for her to believe that a dead cat understood her motives when crow only knew her through stories. she didn't care. the apprentice was determined to make her mother's death in turn for her life worth it.

paws crunching snow gained her attention. her head shot up from it's place nuzzled into the flurries, green eyes narrowed slightly to take in the form of someone approaching. the form she took in was a windclanner no doubt, but why were they interrupting her? how rude. "what are you sneaking up on me for? you're lucky i'm too tired to move or else i totally would have made you eat snow," crowpaw said, humor poking at her threat. she brushed off her annoyance to give the intruder a playful smile, while remaining lied down on her back.

( ♬ ) Oh yes. Crowpaw. The little apprentice who was playing pretends with her grief. Vixengaze had been disinterested in the child until the news came that her mentor had just so happened to fall into a gorge.

Perhaps Vixen would believe the young molly's grief-filled display if she did not recognize the signs of deception herself. Took a deceiver to know one, if you will. The pretty warrior would smile back at the apprentice with a look of expertly practiced warmth and concern as she purred gently, "Just came to check if you were alright, losing a cat close to you can be quite the devastating blow, after all."

The former rogue would walk up and take a dainty seat beside Crowpaw as she looked up at the sky as well and smiled, "Such a beautiful sky tonight, wouldn't you say?" Her viper-like tail swished behind her in a devious manner, "The perfect night to contemplate secrets." Her smile would melt into a smirk, as she slowly turned her head to look at Crowpaw with interested copper eyes, "Perhaps we can share some; as a bonding experience. We are clanmates after all now."

( I'M THE BAD GUY ; DUH )
 

her playful smile quickly disappeared as she took in the appearance of the former rogue. why come to check if she was alright? they weren't friends. barely even acquaintances. "i'm managing just fine," an almost cautious tone escaped her. crowpaw didn't trust the warm purr presented to her.

as the warrior moved to sit beside her, she remained in her relaxed belly up position. green eyes carefully watched the molly as she tilted her head up towards the sky. a beautiful night indeed, she only hummed as a response. crowpaw had to force her tail to remain still from lashing. something was off, she didn't like it.

secrets? a wicked laugh escaped her. she wasn't stupid. she refused to fall into an sort of trap that the older cat set up. the warrior obviously had speculations, but was she bold enough to just throw them out into the open? "i'm not sure what secrets you think i have. why not just ask me what you want to know?" crowpaw returned her smirk with the warm smile vixengaze donned moments earlier, although her words had a slight edge to them.
