STILL DON'T KNOW MY NAME
// omg I am sooo sorry this is so late gkcbdkf hope yall don't mind a back written thread
they were apprentices now. it feels like only yesterday they were born, and now... they were getting training to leave the camp and be great warriors of skyclan. drowsynose knows in his heart they will be better than he is. there is not a single doubt about it. his paws shuffle as he grabs a bunch of nesting material, waiting for his little siblings to sit down. he wears a tired smile on his face, his paws planted firmly in front of him with a swish of his tail back and forth.
"i-i'm so proud o-of you all. l-look at how much yo-youve grown..."
somewhere in there, he wants to say that blazestar is proud of them. he wants to say it, because somewhere in there he knows it's true. but he doesn't want to... get their hopes up about seeing him again. besides, is it weird for them to talk about their father like it is for drowsynose? his own dad wasn't a good cat according to his mom, and sure it wasn't the same for blazestar but blazestar was... leader here. since the beginning and now... he just shakes the thought away. this isn't about dads, and lack thereof. this was about being an apprentice, now! he can't remember if he was as scared to be an apprentice as he was to be a warrior. time just moves so fast.
"h-here. i am g-gonna show you h-how to make th-the best ne-nests, okay? p-part of being an apprentice is m-making nests for th-the queens and elders because they're w-way too busy or t-too tired to do it for themselves an-anymore. i-i, uhm, like it. to make nests. but your big brother has a-always liked sleeping. a-anyways... gr-grab some stuff."
he nudges some material over to each of them, swishing his tail as he slowly begins to weave a nest.
"s-so how are you f-feeling about being a 'paw now?"
