THIS WEIGHT ON MY NECK MAKES IT HARD TO CONNECT
Slow was quick to approach the clearing, spotting Emberstar's leap onto the rocky plinth before the sunny leader called the rest of the clan. As the other filed in to listen, the young tom slipped to the edge out of the way. The motley of half-familiar figures was a little intimidating.
An announcement of a new deputy, Howling Wind, swung his head to the masses. There, he pinpointed the rising tabby. Her stride was strong, a vision of competence. A good candidate. The excitement of the clan swept him up and soon his voice entwined with the rest, cheers of recognition.
Warrior names followed and he took the opportunity to properly tag names to faces. There were so many. His gaze bounced from tattered ear to pink nose, a flitting citrus blur. When mentors and apprentice pairings rang out his focus remained on names, faces. Then his own slid into his pricked ears and the task fizzled from his focus. Of course, he would have one too. Sloepaw. The convenient twist of his name brought a little smile to his maw, the amusement not lost. The title that followed, however, brought his active mind to a halt.
Howling Wind? The freshly dubbed deputy? She found him before he did, a daunting shape that cut through the crowd like a monster along a thunderpath. An inscrutable expression laced across her striped face, twisting uncertainty through him. " 'Ello, so-" A quiet greeting, interrupted by the tap of the molly's nose against his. The contact made him flinch. In seeing the other mentors do the same the panic slackened. "Yeah, course. Can do." Sloepaw wasn't really sure what to think.
/a late but MASSIVE congrats to blitz!!! super well deserved and a perfect fit <3
