*+:。.。 Singepaw stares at the patch of disturbed earth in the center of the clearing. Although the air remained muggy, a level or two into uncomfortably warm, he imagined that bare spot would be cold to the touch. That was the only intelligible thought he'd been able to form since he'd sat outside of the apprentice's den. This wasn't the first time he couldn't sleep, he doubted it'd be the last. All he could think about was that spot he now stared at. There wasn't an expectation that it would suddenly spawn a living, breathing cat - he knew Chilledstar was dead and gone, buried under the soil in a completely different part of Shadowclan's land - he just...couldn't stop staring. The night hung heavy above his head, the stars winking unchanged above his head, too far out of reach to provide any comfort, even if he did believe he was being watched by kindly, dead eyes. Or where they all also trained on that probably-not-actually-cold spot? Had they always been, and he just never noticed? What did that make him, then? A living cat following the paw steps of the long-deceased. Was a part of him dead, too? Did it matter?
Claws dig deep into the soil, unconsciously anchoring him in place. For what, though? There was nowhere to go, nothing to do, even if he desperately, desperately wished to get up and just-
He dug them in harder, feeling breath hiss through his teeth even as his lungs remained somehow painfully empty. His eyes were stinging, but he continued to stare unblinkingly at the spot. Yes, it's because he doesn't blink that his eyes are burning, the corners aflame with an aching pressure mounting behind his corneas.
