This part, at the very least, was starting to get easier. Twitchbolt wasn't overly noticing it, but when he thought back to his first round of patrols... upsetting Edenberry, stumbling over his words... yeah, everything was a bit simpler now. The longer he served in his new role the easier it became to get his thoughts organised- the simpler it was to remind himself that his Clanmates were not hoping to pounce on his downfall. When he regarded them now, it was with a flickering warmth, aquiver upon him as ever. The light shook from him like radiating heat on a jittering body- but there was a bit of strength in his eyes and voice as he called, "SkyClan, gather around for patrols!"
He still, sometimes, felt as if he was wearing his mentors skin... and that old, creeping concern of what it is that had stopped her came back. But he had a job to do... and one he was doing, and had managed multiple times before. And nothing had gone awfully wrong, yet- was that a good sign? "Johnnyflame, you'll be taking Howlfire, Eggshellbloom and- and Glimmersun along the Twolegplaceborder." A quick, sharp nod in his fellow council-member's direction; Johnnyflame was a cat he entrusted with a lot of important duties, and he trusted his knowledge immensely when it came to the Twolegplace border. Daylight warriors had saved their skin when it came to that place more than once.
"Greeneyes, I'll need you over at RiverClan." His friend was trustworthy, positive... the sort he entrusted to walk their borders and manage to maintain a good relationship. Anything to keep SkyClan safe, to stop them from earning ire... "Momowhisker, Mallowlark and Dandelionwish will go with you."
Then, onto dusk patrols- Twitchbolt took a steadying breath of the perfumed newleaf air, allowing his heart to beat a little slower. "Orangestar, you'll be taking... Slate, Cherryblossom and Sorrelsong with you to the loner lands border. Um- Oddpaw, you go along too." He locked eyes with the leader for a second, before looking over to the tricolour apprentice and giving him a nod. His mentor was ill, but he shouldn't miss any training because of it- entrusting him to the leader herself was an honour he would not tolerate being argued with about.
Lastly... he sought a scarred face in the crowd, a candle-light of pride int he amber-strike oddness of wide eyes. "Edenberry," he sought out another friend- trusted, and hopefully not offended by this one. "You'll lead Crowsight, Falcongaze and Owlheart along the ThunderClan border. Fireflypaw will- will accompany you." He gave the large medicine cat apprentice a nod. Still an apprentice... he'd be getting restless, though anyone would with Dawnglare as a mentor.
With a whole host of new warriors, there were plenty more options to pick from... "Tawnyclaw, Eggbounce... you guys will take the hunting patrols. Moonseeker, you're in charge of training exercises." Nods in their direction were given- each of them were newly named, and maybe he'd be proven a fool, but he was sure the lot of them had passed their assessments for a reason.
