She had suggested pigeon feathers as nesting material because the little buggers were everywhere, they swooped in and around the place and made a right mess of areas beneath trees and on the smooth warm rocks that she liked to sunbath on. They were menaces, almost as intolerable as the kits of the clan but at least she could eat the pigeons to solve that problem. Mintshade had taken the time to clean her sunning rock spot, now lounged across it comfortable and observing the camp she scanned the skies. No sign of those pesky feathered rats right now but any moment she expected them to come soaring overhead as they often did, risking death near the moorland cats to see if any scraps of food might be lingering in or around the camp. Acid green eyes narrowed thoughtfully, there were no trees close for them to nest to it was hard managing to catch one when it dropped down to peck at the ground without knowing when they would or even having an idea. She knew for a fact they liked to flock at the horseplace, nesting in the two-leg structures there where they could get at the leftover grains those colossal beasts ate. While she mused a shadow darted overhead and she raised herself up from laying down to sit upright and glance upward with interest, a pigeon passed by and she watched as it kept going, its body hitching slightly as it appeared to drop something directly down onto a cat who had just stepped into the camp.
Mintshade's eyes widened in delight as the object revealed itself to be a white splat upon her clanmates skull and she howled her hyena laugh, cackling and wheezing where she lay outstretched.
"A gift from StarClan!" Her voice rose up, crowing, "How kind of them to choose YOU!"
Ooc: Feel free to be the unfortunate reciever of this 'gift'.
