She had returned to camp hours ago, when Firefly had decided it was too cold for them to linger, decided she needed to get her fever down in the safety of camp instead of out in the pine forest. It had taken her hours to quell the anxiety that had built up in her chest, hiding away from her fellow apprentices in a nest far back into the den. She remembered her and Fireflypaw had once wanted nests right next to eachother again once she was made a 'paw....that would neverr happen now, even when they were adults. If they became adults.
She shakes the thoughts from her head, not wanting to put this off any longer. It wasn't fair to her mentor that he had to be publicly shamed by her own inability to contain an outburst until she was somewhere private. Huckleberry was nice, he was an upstanding cat, warriorhood aside, he did not deserve her disrespect, no matter how unintentional it was.
So the newly named apprentice slips from her nest, from the den that was familiar yet no longer comforting, to find the black smoke without drawing too much attention. Mother only knows how much that many eyes gave her a fright, especially with the horrible contempt she must've earned for running out on an important tradition, and then daring to come back at all. She looks more like a pale rat than a cat, slinking through the shadows as she does.

MUSHROOMKIT-MUSHROOMPAW
5 moons, closeted afab nb [uses she/her]
A comically small flame mink molly with some white spotting and green-tinged aqua eyes
Mushroompaw is generally a bleeding heart of an apprentice, and combined with her suspetibility to stress, causes her to be a little more on the numb side of things now that she's an apprentice. Though she tries to be kind and bubbly to everyone she meets, the comfortable hyperactive chaos that was once given to Skyclan's members has dwindled severely in recent weeks, culminating with her apprentice ceremony not long ago. Currently she's struggling to figure out if her friendships and familial figures are worth staying in the clans for, or if she's better off refusing a life of war for one of peace.
