private SUNLIGHT [ hazecloud ]

() sunlight dapples soft sand, beams of warmth casting a comforting glow as midday sleepiness overtakes riverclan’s camp. pebblepaw lays with sun pooling into his dark blue fur, head resting on the slowly rising and falling flank of his mother. her silver fur gleams in the brightness as she rasps a pink tongue across his head. a soft hum escapes the young man’s throat, contentedness in every fiber of his being. soft ember eyes open, slightly glazed in the sunlight as he finds hazecloud’s green gaze. “oh, it’s not time yet,” he’ll mumble, falling back into the fog of sleepiness. “i’m going fishing with splashdance soon,” comes the explanation, white-tufted tail waving.

a smile graces the tom’s mouth as he thinks of his friend, of the fun time they’re going to have. (he thinks maybe he’ll challenge her to a race or a competition, she likes those.) noticing his mother looking at him, he meets her gaze, ears flicking. “what?” he asks, cheeks heating up at her side eye.

A lull spreads about with the slow creeping tide of sunlight. The rise of its current had washed over their pelts in a midday fog, warming the spot she and Pebblepaw lay. She took to cleaning and taming the scruffy curls of his fur while he rest- stars knew how soon she would get this moment again. It's quiet for the most part though, as though everyone had the same idea to relax before the next charge of patrols were to set out.

"Hmm?" Hazecloud looked at Pebblepaw curiously from his stirring, wondering if he were talking to her or something in a hazy naptime dream. What sort of late day plans could an apprentice have, she wondered? His clarification came paired with a name- Splashdance, and her sides shake with a bit of laughter.

"What?" She repeated back in mocking innocence. "Is this your first time, fishing with Splashdance? Should we clean you up, stick some sage in your ear so you smell nice?"

() hazecloud's voice rings with a teasing tone and her son flattens his ears, flushing. "mo-om," he complains, curling his tail over his face as if hiding. he knows what she's implying, the same thing splashdance's own mother had not so subtly implied. "it's just a hang out! as friends!" he will clarify, although he knows the silver femme will not let him live this down. thwacking his tail against the earth, the young man meets his mother's gaze, honeyed eyes sparkling with embarrassed amusement.

"what, i can't go fishing with a friend?" although now that she mentions it, his fur might need some more grooming. hazecloud has slicked down his head-fur, but his body remains slightly ruffled from his midday nap. subconsciously, he begins grooming his shoulder, smoothing the blue and white fur. "we go fishing all the time. i just don't want to miss it, that's all." a glance at the sun, which has still not slotted into the spot it should be when he and splashdance meet up.
