જ➶ All day long she has been scurrying back and forth. Looking for different items that can be used for decorating fur. Moth had suggested it and after a bit of thinking and meditating on the whole idea the older apprentice decided that she would give it a go. It has been a while since she has decorated her fur with anything and so she has found some large swan feathers, some berry paint, some small grey feathers, butterfly wings, and the skin of a snake. She found it out near the river and thought it just looked nice. A rough sigh leaves her as she looks through the items, a little nervous. Shaking her head a little she pushes onward. "It...it doesn't look too bad. I'm sure she'll like some of this stuff." Maybe. Perhaps she should have brought some pebbles but they aren't actually wearable. Mm. Whatever it'll just have to do right? Turning her head those harsh amber eyes look around for her clanmate who is to help with all of this. It's supposed to be relaxing and she wants to forget about her mother's death and Windclan's continuous evil ways. Her maw snaps shut before she finally spots the other apprentice and she waves her tail in greeting.

"Hey Mothpaw, I got some stuff for decorating our fur. I didn't know what you would like so I tried to get a lot of stuff." Her maw crinkles in hesitation before she sits down and starts to lightly tap at the white feather she gathered up. Her eyes flick up to the other before looking away again. "So...how is everything going with you, Mothpaw? Training good?"

@Mothpaw
 
Mothpaw always loved decorating, and she had just decorated Sandpelt and Cicadaflight before the gathering. The girl hummed quietly as she organized a stack of shells, her tail curled faintly by her side until a voice catches her attention. The red and black female had gathered an assortment of objects ranging from feathers, butterfly wings, berries and more for her. ”Oh! Thank you, Midnightpaw. You're so sweet.” The white and chocolate apprentice would coo softly as she smiles brightly at the other feline. Her bright smile fades softly to a consistent yet gentle one, glancing at the white feather that the other apprentice tapped.

Midnightpaw inquires on about her and she purrs softly in response, ”It's always going good!” Mothpaw would state towards the first question, flicking her hazel gaze upwards to the other female's. Her training? She continues to smile as she simply smiles and agrees, despite it being an utter lie which made her stomach churn in guilt. If she mentioned that it was bad or anything, then her mentor would get in trouble. It was better to tell a little white lie instead of getting others yelled at. ”What did you and Willowroot do today?” The small she-cat would inquire as she picks up a small flower and idly places it behind Midnight's ear, her tail uncurling momentarily.

They missed decorating their fur, they had ways use to enjoy it and it had been a good way for them to bond with others without having to talk. Talking has been troublesome lately and thusly, Magpiepaw kept to themselves lately and their self-isolation wasnt doing any favors. The young apprentice twitched their ear slightly as they had walked out from a spot amongst the reeds. They had been resting for the most part, listening to the water trickling and getting lost in their own derealization.

As they had emerged they spotted Midnightpaw with Mothpaw and they felt a twinge in their chest. Jealousy? Maybe, but they snuffed it out before it could become a blazing heat. The black and white cat flicked their tail behind them slightly, before then glancing around like they might get in trouble for approaching the pair. But that was stupid and it irritated it that that was the first thought it had. Magpiepaw sighed inwardly to themselves and their ear twitched slightly but they had gone up to the dark pelted apprentice and their lighter companion.

Magpiepaw gave a small dip of their head and then pawed at the ground slightly for a moment, “Sorry if im interrupting- could- could i join in the decorating as well?” They asked meekly, glancing up to Mothpaw then Midnightpaw for a moment. The shells they had were gorgeous and so were the other painting tools they had! ​

-ˋˏ ༻ ❆༺ ˎˊ- After Pinekit had allowed Dizzypaw to weave trinkets into her fur, the patchwork girl had actually taken a liking to the accessorized look- if only it weren’t so terribly inconvenient. As a compromise, the kit had instead kept a small shell to tuck in the wisps of her ear on certain days. She wears it now as she watches Midnightpaw and Mothpaw settle down, and gives the golden trinket a wiggle with a twitch of her ear.
The former's pitched paws twitch, and Pinekit tilts her head as she notes the hesitation in her body language, making whatever she’s saying clunky.
Pinekit liked most of the apprentices, so long as they at least seemed to tolerate her- Midnightpaw didn’t fall under that list, but the sun-dappled kitten still decides to slink closer after a moment of watching, the encroaching Magpiepaw shuffling into her peripheral just as Pinekit approaches herself. Apprentices were strange, she thinks. Shellpaw, Splashpaw, and Dizzypaw were strange too- but in a way she actually liked, this situation just felt… strange. “Where’d you get all this stuff, Midnightpaw?” Pinekit would chirp after giving Magpiepaws prompt some breathing room. Iciclefang would never let her start a collection in their nest, the nursery was crowded enough as it was. Still, it was nice to catch a glimpse of her clanmates' small piles.

Never one to stray far from Magpiepaw, it takes only a moment for Frecklepaw to make an appearance, though the silver tinged she-cat stays silent - whatever answer given to her sibling will do for her too after all. Eyes are tired, her sleepless nights catching up and fur more tangled than normal, and yet she can't find it in herself to be bothered. No matter how healed it may be, leg still aches - the reminder of how she'd nearly lost her big sister because of her own inadequacy. Still, the pretty feathers catch her eye, and she can't help but stare longingly at them.
