.°☀ AND IF IT EVER STARTS TO FEEL BAD, LITTLE FANG
Sunflowerpaw has grown used to staying in camp by now, even if they don't like it. They especially don't like having the privilege taken away right after they'd gotten it back again, but they'll live. They can find ways to occupy their time. They recall their one of their favorite things they did while stuck in camp, only a few days before being granted leave, when they were barely well enough to walk around: making flower crowns.
They gathered supplies on the patrols they've been sent on, and now they work. One paw on the stem, hold it down. It's not unusual for the apprentice to take things back to camp that they find out on the moors, a few more flowers was an easy addition. Another stem grasped in their mouth, maneuvered with care. Red flowers, a few orange and yellow-gold. Weave this stem over the other and pull it tight. No black flowers -- they looked -- and no deep purple. That's alright, they'd hardly show up in his fur anyway. It takes them a while, finishing the crown. It's bigger than the ones the apprentices had made for each other, all of them caught up in the excitement of learning how.
Their teacher had been left crownless. That wouldn't do.
Delicately, Sunflowerpaw picks up the makeshift crown, much more sturdy than their first, and makes their way to the medicine den. They'd not have expected Vulturemask to know how to make these, but he proved a good teacher. So, a thank you gift. A flower crown given in return for showing them how to create them. Sunflowerpaw peeks their head into the medicine den, calls a small chrrp of hello. They place the flower crown by their paws, wait for their half-brother to come see.

Flowers have brought color and life to windclan's moors. they're too pretty to be left just outside of camp. Are there any gifts that your character would give to a friend, either to decorate their pelt or their nest? -
