TELL ME, HOW DOES A MAN CHANGE THE UNIVERSE?
Very good. In which case you shall be Molepaw, a fitting name for the way we found you. Were the words of Sootstar when she had graciously accepted him into WindClan. At the time, Molepaw must confess he had joined half out of fear she would've skinned his pelt if he hadn't. Yet now a couple weeks after his joining he felt... comfortable in WindClan. Well- as comfortable as he could feel in a place swarming with felines, many still practically strangers to him. The fawn and brown tom knew a majority of their names, he could tell you all the high positions, most of his den-mates... half of the warriors? He knew all their faces by now... but memorizing names took a good second for him.
Up until now, Molepaw had always been a loner. From a young age he had left his parents nest and was thrown out onto the world. The chimera was excellent at survival skills, but socializing with other felines? Not so much... many in the clan had already taken Molepaw up to be stand offish and rude, and hey- he had been, but there was a reason. Defensive words always seemed to just... tumble out of his mouth when he was worried. Never did he try to explain himself either, WindClan didn't seem like the kind of place that saw "anxiousness" as a sign of weakness... so being viewed as rude? Much more preferable! Hence, he leaves the assumptions his den-mates have made of him be.
From the gorge bush he clumsily barges into camp, panting could be heard from underneath the rabbit he carried in his jaw. A decent sized catch, this new-leafs kit if he had to throw a guess out there... plenty old enough to be hunted. It was the first rabbit he's managed to catch, suppose Pebblenose's teachings have paid off. He hopes this makes her proud, shows her that he meant it when he had boasted about his hunting skills. Yet the chase had worn him out terribly... lots of work to do on building up his stamina.
"I- I caught it..." He boasts to the first cat who lands eyes on him, giving a very small grin. "With each passing day I become more and more WindClan. It won't be all until I blend right in- I told you guys... I'm a fast learner!"
