Chestnutroot

Drunk on the idea that love, only love, can heal

"And that's when a star-forsaken fish jumps outta the water and slaps me on the muzzle!" Her laughter is unapologetic, her heart warm. The usually reserved but kind Chestnutroot has taken hold in this group. Her usual front was gone here, lost in her recounting the funny - and slightly mortifying - tale of how leaf collecting went eariler that day.
"And then Flurryjump here challanges him to - of all things - a hunt off!" She bumps the molly's shoulder playfully, eyes alight with glee. It wasn't often that the girls could go for a patrol like this - what between everyone's duties and the harsh leaf bare there had hardly been time to sleep before doing more things. But now that the sun was staying longer in the sky, Chestnutroot was relieved to have found a moment with them all.
"Stars know who woulda won - but Flurry woulda given him a real run for it if Flamestar hadn't stop 'em," She mrreows, smiling at both mollies. The sunlight dances through the leaves above them, warming her pelt in odd patches. She recalled how Stormywing and Thundergleam had been eariler that day - splayed out in the sun for all to see. Chestnutroot had elected not to say anything then - simply happy for her friend - and even now she simply sends a warm (but knowing) smile towards the gray and white tabby.

Stormywing lets out a bark of laughter as she flops dramatically onto her side with a grin splitting her face. The mental image of a trout tail slapping her friend's muzzle is too much to bear. "A fish?! Oh, Chestnutroot, you can't make this stuff up!" She kicks a paw at the air as she guffaws, golden eyes gleaming with amusement. "Serves you right for getting too close! Leave the fishing to RiverClan next time!" Catching her breath, she rolls back onto her stomach and flicks her tail over her paws with a playful smirk aimed at Flurryjump. "And you, Flurry - a hunt-off? As if you wouldn't have left that poor RiverClan tom with his tail between his legs!" Her whiskers twitch. "Though I gotta admit, I would've loved to see that."

The tabby stretches her forelegs, arching her back luxuriously in the shimmering sunlight before settling into a more relaxed crouch. It feels good to relax like this…to laugh, to forget the weight of patrols, responsibilities, and...other things. Thoughts of Pinefrost and Freckleflame are shoved away in favor of this joy with her friends.

Her ears then twitch as Chestnutroot's knowing smile lands on her. For a heartbeat, Stormywing freezes, but then recovers with a sly grin of her own. "What? Don't give me that look." She gives her chest a few quick licks, suddenly very invested in smoothing out her fur. She knows exactly why her friend is giving her the look. "Thundergleam and I were just…chilling. Sunbathing. Like any sensible cat would do on one of the few warm days we get in leaf-bare." Her gaze flicks back up, gleaming with teasing defiance. "You should try it sometime instead of wrestling fish."

The red tabby's whiskers twitch in amusement as she watches Stormywing dramatically fall onto her side in a fit of laughter. Part of her wishes she could have been there to watch the fish jump up and slap her friend across the muzzle, but she had been a few heartbeats too late to the scene. The brown and white molly was braver than her, being so close to the river. She didn't really even like the rain making her pelt damp, there was no way she would get that close to the river willingly again, not after Snakeblink's stunt many seasons ago.

Chesnutroot's pause caused her to glance over at the molly, and the look she was giving Stormywing was one she knew all too well. It was the same look that had been given to her and Flycatcher by Sunfreckle. The leader smiled mischievously, and she joined in on giving her mate's niece the look. "Oh Stormywing, anyone with eyes could see what was going on." she purred in a teasing manner. She had spotted the two lying together in the sun, love filling their gazes. When she had spotted them, she hadn't approached them because it was...difficult...seeing mates with one another, when her's lay permanently outside the camp. But she was happy for them, especially Stormywing, and she knew Flycatcher would be too. "How long have you been mates?"
