He catches her fishing, a skill she's developed well. Lilybloom is a talented young warrior, for all that Clearsight can't help but see her as a kid. She's Clayfur's niece, which endears her to him already; the earthen-furred tom speaks highly of the girl.
"You've got the right idea. Perfect fishing weather," he comments-- a cool breeze that signals leaf-fall approaching and a bright, cloudless sky. Golden eyes mirror the sun as he gazes at the water. "Mind if I join you? I could use the company..." There's a particularly flat stone a foxlength out that he's got his eye on-- he's made some fine catches from that perch.
And if he's honest, he's not just offering for his own sake. Something in him freezes up a little every time he spies a clanmate out alone, imagines blood and thunder and ruthless twoleg paws.
Should she oblige him, he'll nod amiably, and then make a clean leap to the stone--
Or, ah. What should've been a clean leap.
Oh. Fuck, Clearsight thinks as he overbalances, water rushing to meet his face. All the times he's successfully done this alone, and now Clayfur's niece is about to watch him--
Hit the water with a massive splash.
