Ah yes, the snow. Pretty. Soft. Cold.

And almost too deep for Yewberry to walk in.

He lifted his paws higher than usual as he trudged on, heading nowhere in particular. His wounds were freshly healed, but he wasn't ready to go out just yet. He would wait until he was SURE they were fully healed and scarred.

As he passed under the tall rock, misfortune struck. He stopped for a split second, and that was all it took for the snow piled on top of it to loosen and fall right on top of him, burying him completely. He didn't even get the chance to squeak in surprise.

The snow had ATTACKED HIM.

@Echolight .
 

The shift to the nursery had been almost overwhelming one moment, where hope had been sparking and she had begun to feel okay about everything, to complete misery the next. The only things that had been bringing her joy being little Daisykit and her own unborn kits that were to arrive soon, but as her due date crept closer, the side-eyes and curious whispers had grown louder.
She was walking- or she supposed her gait was more of an awkward waddle now- to the fresh kill pile when she noticed Yewberry.
Admittedly, she hadn’t spoken to her friend much since her initial pregnancy reveal, everything had been moving so quickly that.. well, it was hard for her to escape, even to her friends who were only a few fox-lengths away.
She stopped, about to call over to him when suddenly a small avalanche of snow came crashing down on him.
"Oh- Yewberry!" What would have been a greeting quickly became a shocked gasp as Echolight rushed over to him.
She began to dig without a second thought until she saw his familiar pale fur begin to stick through the clumps of frozen powder. "Yewberry? Can you hear me?" Echolight asked to the pile of snow as she continued to try and uncover the warrior.
Fucking leafbare!
"Speech."
[ WHAT A TIME ]

Oliveshade had watched most of this unfold from atop her usual spot on the rock overshadowing the fresh kill pile. Like Yewberry, the snow was a little too tall to be walking in for very long, especially with her lack of a long tail to help her balance in it. The warrior was already choking down snickers seeing him try and maneuver around camp, so to see the snow atop tallrock completely bury him.

Well she might've had to choke her laughter down so hard she started a coughing fit.

She leaps down from her perch, electing to hop her way through the powdery chill instead of attempting to shove through it. When she arrives, she quickly gets to work helping to uncover the tom, tears pricking the corner of her eyes. "Sorry sorry! I couldn't help it, you good there Yewberry?" She might've been a bit of a snarker sometimes but her last leafbare saw some poor sap nearly freezing to death, so while she found the event funny, she's not keen on losing one of the more tolerable cats to that fate.

If there was any spot in camp that accumulated snow, it was her Tallrock. The meeting spot was always covered in snow by the end of the day, no matter how much Sootstar tried cleaning it off the next it was always covered. It wasn't that big of a deal, if it didn't make the rocks slippery to get up onto.

Seems nature was taking care of the snow piling up on the rocks itself though, as a heaping pile of the white fluff fell directly onto Yewberry.
Clan-mates rushed to his aid, and shortly after Sootstar slithers over to the scene as well. "He's fine, I'm sure." The blue-furred she-cat assures, she can't imagine snow made that hard of a hit... Unless ice had collected in it, then maybe they should worry.

IS IT OVER YET - CAN I OPEN MY EYES?

Peri is regretting his apprenticeship. It's not as if he could have stopped it, but as the snow piles up he finds himself missing the saftey and more importantly warmth of the medicine den. Seeing the stars overhead on nights he can't sleep is nice - drawing shapes and counting the glittering points soothing and a good way to pass the time, and he likes being with his siblings once more, but that about sums up all the positives he can think of. It sucks. As snow tumbles down upon yewberry however, his brief irritation is replaced by amusement as a quiet, childish giggle slips past his lips. Eyes glittering, he plods over - having to high-step and even jump a few times to make his way over. "The snow g-g-g-got you g-g-gg-good," he says, jaw working hard. He really hates talking sometimes.
 

With help from Echolight, he managed to free himself of the snow that had so rudely fallen on him. He shook himself free of the mound and gave a small laugh.

"I'm okay! Just colder now than I was before." He answered to those who asked.


He looked around at the small crowd that had gathered. Did he worry them??? Oops. He couldn't blame anyone for laughing either, he would have done the same, he had to admit. He WAS a little embarrassed that Sootstar saw him though. Better him than her though, right???


" It sure did get me good..." He agreed with Peri. "At least it wasn't frozen."

Then he would be in trouble. But the snow was the nice and powdery kind, the kind he enjoyed.
 
( ⓛ ﻌ ⓛ *)∫ A form of pure white and deep smoke sat by watching the cats as they mingled in the freshly fallen snow. Oliveshade had really gotten Yewberry good with that snow throw and it made him laugh a bit as they all seemed so concerned. Yewberry was a strong cat he could take a few snowballs to the body that was for sure.

A mischievious look crossed over angular features, and Snowshadow crouched low to the ground as he slunk over. Paws quiet on the snow-laiden floor and he dragged his tail behind him to gather as much snow as he could. Then the would aim to throw the gathered pile of snow at @SOOTSTAR , and laugh loudly about it. Snow was a time for fun! Even if the days were going to be harsher, a little fun never hurt no body. — tags
