-ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ- Perhaps it was almost funny how fast he went from scorned, forgotten from patrols and relinquished to simple hunting duty time after time of Cherryblossom calling for the lists, to Orangestar herself handing him the duty of leading a patrol. That, over Figfeather, who he was sure was better suited to the task. Nerves played at him for but a moment when he was asked, but he accepted the duty with a gleam in his eye.
Was he thinking of this as getting back at Cherryblossom? Certainly not- no, what was more important here was ensuring this patrol went smoothly, without a hitch. Riverclan was akin to an ally, especially after their little gathering. His vision turned towards the patrol he lead towards the border, the scent of water already clinging to the air- Figfeather, a lead warrior. He questioned himself why she hadn't been chosen for lead, but that was swept away by the inherent sense of duty that claimed him. Drowsynose, his 'friend', who he was overjoyed to have close.
Radiopaw, his apprentice, sure to have been yapping the entire walk. Which was fine- Falcongaze was a hint brighter at being able to answer questions, or to will his apprentice to keep up with them. Another sense of duty that kept him moving forward. Apprentices of the clan were with them as well, ear twitched and looking out for them as well. Nothing could go wrong, beyond the sense of dread that curled in his stomach as to why Orangestar asked him to take the task. She had almost looked... far away, when she asked.
Nevertheless, he persisted. Pushing out from the line of trees, he inhaled deeply as he made it to the border, a low rumble leaving him in appreciation of how much cooler it was near the water's edge. "We're on good terms with Riverclan. Be kind, courteous." He reminded, voice light. He wasn't lecturing them- just a small reminder, and it was mostly directed at the apprentices, not the two warriors with them. He had no doubt that Drowsynose and Figfeather could and would handle themselves respectively.
Falcongaze's vision shifted towards Radiopaw. "You remember the Riverclan border, yes? You can tell their scent from ours- slightly fishy. Can you tell me what you know of Riverclan?" He asks his apprentice, ear turned to look out for a Riverclan patrol. Despite their status with one another, one could never be too careful.
