Chilly autumn winds hung upon Celandinepaw's whiskers and purls, like an algid weight of forthcoming winter, inevitably frosting into even the sun-warmed flanks and cheeks of the medicine cat apprentice. She didn't remember leaf-fall relenting so easily to the throes of leaf-bare, and yet, scarcity seemed to etch its way onto every little aspect of Windclan. It did not crackle and growl like some spurned sun, but instead remained in the background as some estranged entity, though one that still knelled like an omen to all who would listen. She tried not to occupy herself with grim thoughts of the future - doing so only paralyzed her, rooted her paws to the unforgiving earth. The wheat-colored molly carried along a scrawny hare by its limp nape, like a russet flash upon dull and brittle hues of the moorlands, leaf-fall felled and shedding upon the naked fields. Letting out a long exhale through her nostrils, the tabby she-cat glanced around for a particular place to take a break from all the madness of the medicine cat den. Cottonsprig had allowed her to leave, anyhow, under the condition that she were to return no later than when the sun started to bow its crown downwards. That was until she caught a glimpse of bright blue eyes staring at her relaxed frame, frigid as winter's waking days, though perhaps it did not disrobe her and shake her to the core as the harsh season did. The warrior seemed... inquisitive, almost, or perhaps she could not sense the judgment that belied ice-rimmed glance. Paleface sat just a fox-length from her, and she only blinked her own mint-leaf eyes before she realized that she should say something to the other.
"Hi, Paleface! Oh, uh, don't worry. I sorted some herbs and talked to some patients before I got this. It's against the warrior code, I think, but I'm just so hungry! You get it, right? Like, I really can't focus with the way my stomach is growling... and I made sure to take the skinniest piece of prey, too. I didn't eat all morning." The ever-bright Celandinepaw beamed behind where ivories caught into mud-painted fur of her meal. As if on cue, her gut rumbled uproariously, even sending shivers along rushing veins.
