EVEN THE WIND KNOWS YOUR NAME ❀༉ ROWANLEAP

[Meadowfur]

The clearing just beyond camp was quiet, save for the rustling leaves overhead and the distant hum of birdsong. Sunlight filtered through the branches in lazy golden beams, dappling the forest floor where Meadowfur stood, tail flicking behind her with idle anticipation. She rolled a kink from her shoulder, flexing her claws into the soft earth. It had been too long since she'd last sparred like this—not just training with random Clanmates, but really sparred. And of course, if she was going to sharpen her claws against anyone, it might as well be the one cat who'd always had a habit of getting under her pelt.

" Try not to fall out of a tree again this time, Rowan, " she teased, shooting a crooked smirk across the clearing at her longtime rival. Her voice was light, casual, but the familiar edge of competition sparkled just beneath it. " I know climbing's your thing and all, but the ground's a little less forgiving when you land on your face. " She gave him a few heartbeats' warning—enough to make it fair, not enough to give him the upper paw—then lunged forward, hind legs driving her across the short distance between them.

Her form was solid, but her speed lacked its usual crisp precision. The tension in her shoulders made her aim just a little off, and her swipe—a low, sweeping forepaw meant to catch his front leg and throw him off balance—was well-intended, but lacked the force and sharpness she'd hoped for. She could already feel the move falling short the moment she committed to it.

Still, she aimed to strike, ears pricked and green eyes gleaming with challenge. If she landed the hit, great—but if she didn't, well… she'd just make sure the next one did.

" Come on, " she huffed, circling again, " Don't tell me you've gone soft while I've been busy outclassing you in actual warrior duties. " She didn't mean it—probably. But she wasn't about to admit she'd been looking forward to this all day.​
