⋆⍋ It's a peculiar thing, keeping skulls about. Basilwhisker had never thought of keeping such trinkets, or really any at all, but seeing Spiderlily out in the clearing with such things made him ponder. The young warrior had noticed the darker tom's affliction for the bones of his prey, particularly the helms, and brought forth curiosity as to why. Why keep such frivolous things? What use could they have, aside from useless decor and meager intimidation? If one could factor the dry remains of prey intimidating at all. At first Basilwhisker viewed it as weirdly playing with one's food, but after several days of catching on, Spiderlily genuinely enjoyed the presence of such objects.
Tentatively, he observed the older tom in silence. It seemed as though some sort of organization was occurring, and one had rolled away unknowingly. His eyes watched it roll away into the shadows of a bramble bush, and waited for Spiderlily to realize his prized possession was no longer there. It didn't take long, in fact he counted only a dozen heartbeats before pale eyes were in search and ears alert.
Basilwhisker rose, finding himself useful for the occasion. He ducked under the bramble bush carefully and pawed the skull toward him and turned to present it.
"These have meaning to you." It could be a question or a simple statement, however Spiderlily interpreted it was his to choose.
