camp heaven help me ☁︎ 08.02 patrols

—————————————————————⊰✿⊱————————————————————
With so many fresh apprentices and their warriors ready to work, Hazecloud's gait matched in the spark of energy around camp. New faces awaited for the assignments, and one returned that she was particularly excited to see!

The molly is quick to the point for that reason, eager to get everyone out and not keep them waiting.

"Let's get ready for patrols! We'll start with ThunderClan..." Her gaze moved in quick pinning motions to the warriors in front of her. "Ferngill and Dogteeth will join me for that border. As for SkyClan, I want Willowroot to lead Sandpelt and Driftwood out there." Hazecloud trusted the warrior to do well of course, being in her pawsteps plenty times before. Of all the warriors in her rank, the tabby was perhaps the one she trusted the most.

"Lakemoon, you will bring Cicadaflight and Hawkcloud with you. Splashpaw will attend another patrol, closer to camp." It wouldn't be long before she would have the send the white-freckled apprentice out as a warrior and not a -paw, but that was a worry for another day. "Snakeblink will be taking her and Gladefrost to collect fresh moss for all the new nests expected to be made. Moonbeam could use any that's leftover." And lastly, a final patrol to supplement the remainder of those still sat before her. "Iciclefang will have Otterbite and Foxtail to follow the flow of fish. Report back to me which sides of the river are fuller, and where to avoid. Foxtail, you are also responsible for guard duties with Hawkcloud."

After another quick inhale she dismissed them with a sharp flick of her tail. "My patrol will head out shortly, I will hear your reports once you all return."

Iciclefang stretches as she emerges from the warrior's den, the sun gleaming over rippling dappled fur. She had slept well, though there's still a tiredness in her limbs that she knows she will shake once she gets going for the day. She'd likely overexerted little-used muscles the day prior, when she'd taken Pinepaw and the others to the Clan borders, but she wants to get back into her groove as soon as she can. She knows it will take time for her body to readjust to the life of a warrior.

The tortoiseshell trills a greeting to Hazecloud as the deputy begins to line up patrols. Blue eyes gleam with satisfaction as her name is called to lead one. "Follow the flow of fish and report back to me about which sides of the river are fuller, and where to avoid," the smoke-pelted she-cat instructs them, and she dips her head in understanding. "We'll leave right away," she promises. She turns to look for Otterbite and Foxtail, giving them an earnest look. "Go ahead and eat. I'll make sure Pinepaw is ready to go."

Cragpaw really[ was getting his show of the borders, wasn't he? Ferngill beckoned his new apprentice eagerly, emerald eye gleaming with enthusiasm. To see ThunderClan, again... it sent a bit of a jolt through him, but he suppoed it was going to have to be something they got used to. As long as Stormywing didn't lock eyes with him... as long as they kept going like they had been, speaking of nothing, forging forward and avoiding it all, then everything would be fine.

"Hear that, Cragpaw?" He grinned down at his nephew with a shining eye, genuine smile splashed onto fiery features. "This is your first proper patrol- so you've got to make sure you listen well." With a nod of his head, a solitary eye lifted to find the deputy's face. With a flick of a silken tail, a blazing blur, Ferngill chirped, "We're ready when you are, Hazecloud!"

.·:*¨༺ ☾ ༻¨*:·. At the sound of Hazecloud’s call, Lakemoon rises from where she had been previously settled outside of the warriors den. As the lanky warrior approaches, azure hues catch the strident figure of Iciclefang, and the tabby spares a brief tip of her ears towards the recently freed molly.
Without wasting much time, Hazecloud begins to rattle off names and borders, though when Lakemoon’s task is assigned there is a small crease in the tabby’s brow bones. Splashpaw would be sent off somewhere else, again. Lakemoon remains planted where she stood, in no rush to find her patrol mates until she’d be able to catch a moment with Hazecloud. When the deputy finishes and cats begin to spread and shift, Lakemoon would approach her before she got the chance to walk away. “This is the second time Splashpaw has been assigned elsewhere.” The warriors tone is cool, but not curt. “Is there a reason why my apprentice cannot accompany me?”




  • LAKEMOON she/her, warrior of riverclan, 27 moons.
    lanky blue tabby with low white and navy blue eyes and a slightly twisted right hind leg. A large facial scar stretches from her right brow to her left cheek, and another crosses at her chest and stretches down the length of her stomach.

ꕀꕀ The deputy is getting better and better at assigning patrols, it seems. She does, however, shove Splashpaw aside just as she had before. He isn’t quite certain what’s going on with Splashpaw and her acceptance into the clan, but she’s a sweet apprentice and certainly doesn’t deserve to be personally loathed by Hazecloud. Does she? Lakemoon speaks up to ask why exactly her apprentice isn’t going to the border with her. Sandpelt’s single eye widens with surprise, but he doesn’t speak up after her. Instead, he looks around for Willowroot, expecting the dark-furred molly to be looking for him. And not a glance is spared for Cicadaflight and his new apprentice, of course. He doesn’t care. He just wants to get his job done and then pretend not to remember his enemy has an apprentice now.

𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 Hazecloud dishes out patrol assignments, and Crabpaw is right there to listen intently to her words. She tells Ferngill to go with her to the ThunderClan border, Cragpaw with him, and then assigns Iciclefang and Pinepaw to a patrol along the river. He frowns, slightly, because he won’t be with his siblings, but his excitement returns just as quickly as it had faded. He turns to look for his mentor, mossy gaze finding familiar mismatched eyes. He strides over to the black and white tom, white-webbed tail flickering with excitement. This is his very first officially assigned patrol, and it’s to a clan that’s definitely an enemy. "This is so exciting, huh? WindClan!" Of course, he doesn’t know very much about the moorland clan except that they’re all bad. "When are we leaving?"

Cragpaw's ears perk up as Hazecloud calls out the patrol assignments, mismatched eyes lighting up with a mixture of excitement and nerves. He turns to Ferngill with a grin. His first real patrol! There's a weight that settles on his shoulders. Duty. "ThunderClan, huh?" He tries to sound casual, like he's been doing this for so long. His twitching tail betrays his excitement. "I'm ready! I'll pay close attention!" He promises, giving his uncle a firm nod.

He glances over at Iciclefang, her assignment taking her far away from him and his mentor. If she meets his eyes, he will give her a look of determination, a smile cracking his maw. He'll make sure to do a good job for her. With a final flick of his tail, he keeps close to Ferngill, eager to make a good impression on his first proper outing. He can't risk going to eat and being late.

Her path toward the willow den is interrupted, and Hazecloud should find herself unsurprised that Lakemoon would seek understanding. In the midst of her decision following Iciclefang's share of information, Hazecloud had assumed the warrior would understand her intentions behind it.

She allowed herself pause, her tail twitching over her back as she met Lakemoons gaze. "We don't have to pretend, Lakemoon. It's pretty clear to me someone still looks for their wayward girl." She would not bother to spout Smogstar's warning within camp, plenty had already made the connection Splashpaw was formerly from the marshes anyhow. "I will not blatantly expose ourselves to our neighbors while she's still an apprentice. She can defend her place here once she's graduated." Hazecloud feared they would insist Lichenstar not take on the whims of child, she may have better use speaking as a grown warrior instead.
