They walk together. Side by side. Silver and tortoiseshell.
It has been a while since they've been able to get away from camp, not least just the two of them together. Lilybloom is glad that newleaf has finally arrived, not only for the warmer weather and the melting snow, but because it means they can leave camp again and not be at risk of frostbitten paws, slipping on ice, or struggling to find prey. "I've missed this," Lilybloom sighs softly as they walk.
As they continue their walk, the signs that newleaf has arrived can be found all around them. Now that the snow has melted many plants and seedlings have begun to sprout and grow again, keen to lap up the warmth of the sun they missed in the winter months. It will take a while for the trees to get there but already fresh buds are beginning to form and soon a canopy of green will once again be above their heads. There were many small flowers beginning to bloom but only one caught Lilybloom's attention and made her stop to get a better look. To most cats - and perhaps even Lakemoon - there's nothing too outstanding about these flowers at first glance. The only thing truly notable about them was their colour - a bright spot of yellow among the greens and browns of the forest around them. "Do you remember these?" Lilybloom asked, stepping forward to sniff the flowers. "I gave you one as a peace offering once. Though they looked a bit more crooked than these." She laughed a little at the memory. How awkward and nervous they had both been back then, struggling to adjust to their new lives and the cars around them.
