☼—— "guys! guys!" emberkit is half-shouting, half-cheering as he scrambles over towards any other kits who will listen to him, golden legs that grow longer by the day pumping furiously until he nearly overbalances and ends up with a muzzleful of sandy earth. he hurtles towards the familiar faces so fast, in fact, he has to pause and take a breath before he can announce his grand idea. a small pink tongue pokes between pearly canines as he catches his breath, beaming at the other kits despite it, excited to share his idea for a game.

one he's reined in his heaving chest, the sun-furred tom beams at those he's captured as an audience, chirping, "we sh-should play gathering! like all the leaders do." his childhood stutter has already begun to improve from his first moon, but it will linger up until nearly his apprenticeship. regardless of his new (or not) friends' response, emberkit flops down on increasingly lanky legs to take his 'official' seat, holding his head high and grinning unashamedly as he mews, "i'll start! i'm emberstar, leader of .... of s-sunclan. an' this month we have new warriors—uhh .... frecklepounce, puddlepool, and, um, sq-squirrelpelt." he'll turn soft blue eyes onto his companions and wait for the next 'leader' to respond.

Hearing the name Emberstar again after so long caught her attention quickly, not that no one spoke of their past leader but it was not a very common occurance among those her age who experienced the horrifying dog ordeal after and certainly not from one as young as the cream kitten in the middle of camp. Until she remembered his name, one of Sunfreckle's kits; the one her grandmother had found in the forest - Emberkit. He spoke not of the legacy of a fire branded molly with a kind heart, but of himself and his own imaginary clan and she can not help but smile as she wanders over on light steps to sit next to him. It was not often she felt so inclined to silliness but how could she not? He was adorable and she could not miss an opportunity to take it easy when it presented itself. Watching the kits was a job on its own after all and she could see the red tabby form of his father napping near the nursery from here; perhaps he'd like the break.
"Moonstar, founder and leader of MoonClan here. We have been blessed by StarClan with good prey and a large litter. One of our queens had twelve kits named Birdkit, Springkit, Smilekit, Bluekit, Spottedkit, Flopkit, Lightningkit, Lifekit, Pinekit, Boldkit, Shrewkit and Nosekit." A flurry of silly names both made up on the spot and in reference to her existing clanmates flew casually from her maw as she tucks her tail around her paws, "That is all the news MoonClan has to bring."

sleekpaw & 06 moons & genderfluid & he/she/they & thunderclan apprentice

Hesitation is clear to read on sleekpaws delicate frame as the boy pauses to join in the conversation, blue eyes glittering. "Erm... I'm s-sleekstar, leader of flowerclan and - we've had... we've had plentiful prey, and chased off a, um, dog-," The words that fall from her lips are stilted, awkward - utterly out of place from the usually confident feline. But they are not good at making things up on the spot, no not at all - face burns beneath pale pelt, tinging their features even pinker, and the apprentice is quick to look away once their part is done. Perhaps he shouldn't have joined in to begin with, but he'd been bored - there's not much to do outside of patrols and training when you have no friends. "Thats all,"

  • a small and effeminate apprentice with pale pinkish cream fur and baby blue eyes. sleekpaw comes across as quiet and aloof towards most, though he shows a softer side around the nursery queens and his mentor. she seems to care little for anything outside of training, apprentice duties, and her appearance. they seem strangely silent on the topic of borders however, and even shiftier about anything concerning cross clan relationships.

ROEFLAME — break the air to feel the fall.
There’s a strange tingling in her throat today, a soft hitch in her chest.
Only a few short moons ago, she may have ignored it, gone about her day while praying to the starless sky that her breath keeps it’s steady pace.
Not anymore though, she was not ready to risk her life over such an easily preventable thing, to take it for granted.
So, she is camp-bound today, happy to help around camp, though mainly towards apprentices stuck with nothing to do.
Emberkit’s announcement, however, is intriguing enough to draw the amber tabby over, brows risen in both amusement and curiosity.
The warrior settles in front of the small, partial circle the younger trio has made. Head tilted.
"Well I, Roeflame from Sunclan, heard Moonclan warriors were hunting on our territory!" Roeflame pitches in, unrealistic to how an actual gathering commenced, but she wanted to stir the pot a bit.
She shoot’s a playful side-glance towards “Moonstar,” wondering how the molly would handle her faux-accusations.

( ) Hailstorm can't help but chuckle at the sound of 'Emberstar' holding a gathering and sure, he was the oldest cat present at the moment but that would not stop him from contributing to the fun. His whiskers twitch as he steps forward to join on the little games noticing that Sunfreckle was resting near the nursery, he will play along and humor those around him. "Congratulations to your one Moonclan queen, may Starclan continue to treat those of Moonclan kindly." A dip of his head before turning to the rest of the leaders present and puffing out his chest whilst he announced his own made up clan of sorts "Hailstar of Snowclan present and accounted for. We have had a recent and horrible infestation of FROGS!"

A frown on his maw as he shook his head continuing "My clan is getting absolutely tired of the taste of frogs and we do not know what to do. Would of you like some frogs? We have a lot to spare. Despite the frogs, we have had plentiful prey and two litters. Both queens having ten kits each. Waspkit, Pollenkit, Leafkit, Puddlekit, Splashkit, Icekit, Frostkit, Frogkit, Fernkit, Whitekit-" He takes a dramatic deep breath, "Frownkit, Sillykit, Upsidedownkit, Rightsideupkit, Tumblekit, Rumblekit, Mumblekit, Stumblekit, Bumblekit, and lastly Gigglekit. That is all from Snowclan,"

A dramatic gasp left him as Roeflame, the Sunclan warrior, accused Moonstar of her warriors hunting on Sunclan lands. Hailstar turning to Moonstar and speaking with nonexistent brows furrowed "Is this true, Moonstar? Is this why your prey is plentiful?" His voice laced with playful accusing as he awaited an answer.
( O SOL PEDIU A ; LUA EM CASAMENTO )
 
A play gathering was a brillaint idea, because Emberkit-star was brilliant like that. Everyone's reports are pretty much perfect. Rainbowkit doesn't have a good reference for what a gathering should look like, so this must pretty much be it! They even had full warriors here to confirm. MoonClan didn't seem right though. WindClan wasn't called SootClan, it was WindClan! SkyClan wasn't BlazeClan, it was SkyClan! Though, Rainbowkit thinks BlazeClan would have been a very good name. Perhaps Moonstar should be interrogated on the problem! Rainbowkit is debating how much this matters to them.

Poor SnowClan has a frog infestation! " What's a frog? " They must be big scary monsters, they figure. Oh! but they can eat frogs. Rainbowkit would like to eat something new. " I want– I mean, Rainbowheart, SunClan's deputy would like your frogs, " They don't really have a deputy voice, which Rainbowkit figures has to be big and commanding like a leaders. ...Though, They didn't think Flycatcher was very big or commanding either, so it's probably okay.

Frownkit was a very sad name. But Sillykit was a very good one, so is Upsidedownkit. Rainbowkit giggles from their spot beside Emberkit-star. They could've been Gigglekit! " Hailstar, you should rename all your kittens to Frogkit, then they would eat all of the frogs for you and your problem would be done forever. " This was perfectly sound logic to them. " Um, maybe MoonClan needs lots for all their kittens. They don't have frogs. You should give Moonstar all the frogs. "

☼—— he's glad to see so many friends joining in on his gathering! the first one is moonpaw—er, moonstar—who declares herself the "founder and leader" of moonclan, whatever that means. he grins at her anyways as she says a queen had twelve kits, wow! emberkit's eyes round with surprise; could a queen even have that many kits? and all with such cool names, too .... he chirps, "wow, twelve? i wish my n-name was nosekit ..." the tom trails off, blue gaze turning to their newest leader; sleekstar of flowerclan, who's had plentiful prey and chased off a whole dog, which is so cool that he wishes he'd thought of better news. maybe he can make up some more while everyone else talks ...

thankfully, a couple more cats arrive. roeflame joins his clan and he rewards her with a brilliant smile that turns into slack-jawed surprise as she proclaims that moonstar's warriors were hunting on their territory! he gasps and stares at moonstar, eyes wide, yelping, "really? stop takin' our prey, moonst-star!" he tries to lower his eyebrows and look scary, like howlingstar does sometimes, but it's difficult to soften his open face. hailstorm is here too, puffing out his chest and telling them about his clan, which has twenty whole kits if emberkit is counting right! and a bunch of frogs! wow, he really does need some cooler news, but for now emberkit nods sagely to his newly-arrived sibling who asks what a frog is, confidently replying, "uhh, frogs are .... are b-big, scary monsters with a thousand claws and a thousand fangs," he mews wisely, like a leader should.

"yeah! moonkiy can have them, 'cause they st-stole our prey," he proclaims, then adds, "i have more news too!" everyone else had way cooler news than him, so he pauses and inhales deeply to give his brain more juice to think of news. the golden kit puffs out his chest and half-shouts in his "leader" voice, "uhhh, sunclan has even more n-news! one of our queens had a lot of kittens, and they have all been n-named mouthkit," he squints, tries to think of some additional news, then declares, "our brave warriors, led by rainbowheart, successfully killed a thousand foxes." he decides on this with satisfaction.

It took tigerkit a few moments to understand this gathering that emberkit spoke of. She was more than confused though. "Em-emberstar, frogs are gentle creatures! They hop really high! And they're super slimy. They're kinda cute!" She said, excitedly. Her adventure had taught her of many animals, and nothing scary like that. But what were foxes? If they had to fight them off, then they must be scary. She knew dogs were, from stories from her mother.

"I am .. uh... Tiger...." Her eyes flicked side to side, trying to think of a cool name. "TigerLeaf, a medicine cat of Sunclan!" she finally decided, trying to feel super cool. Like Berryheart! And berryheart had an apprentice, so she wanted one.

And following Hailstorms lead, of wise words complimenting the kits, she would say, "Wow! So many kittens, that's so great to hear. They'll be... super strong one day! And big!" It wasn't the best, but the chocolate tortie was trying.

She wanted to come up with something cool, for this gathering of news. And she thought it would be. "I have decided an apprentice, tonight!" she exclaimed, her gaze searching for someone to name as her new apprentice. But her ears flattened, and she whispered quietly to Emberkit. "I don't know who to make my apprentice," she said kind of softly.​
