She's not on an official patrol to the borders, but the warrior she'd tagged along with had followed the river until she finds herself peering over the border and into the sliver of SkyClan territory she can see beyond the water. It's late, evening, and the surface of the river glows almost orange. There's the barest hint of brisk leaf-fall chill in the breeze -- with it comes pine, a sickly sweet and almost unpleasantly spicy scent that she immediately identifies as the kittypet Clan.
Or, that's what she's heard some cats call it. Her parents lived in the pine forest before Cicadastar started RiverClan -- she knows this, knows they weren't kittypets. The nickname sticks in her mind, though.
Pale blue eyes search the sandy riverbank opposite their territory, startled to find a cat her age looking back at her. "Oh." She tilts her head, surveying the gray and white apprentice -- or at least, she assumes he's an apprentice. He'd have to be, right?
There is a river between them, so she does not make any effort to appear guarded. She doubts he'd make it over the river, and besides, since when does SkyClan attack anyone?
After a moment, Iciclepaw calls out, "You're an apprentice, too, aren't you? You're a SkyClanner? Are you a kittypet as well?" It's said out of genuine curiosity, though the judgment is still clear on her tortoiseshell face.
