MAYBE I'D BE A SAINT IF I WEREN'T ————————————
As Snakeblink has been tasked with making sure the former colony cats adapt to clan life, he allows himself to be more open about the way he keeps an eye on all of them. It’s only to make sure they are not meeting any hostility from established Riverclanners, or sparking such hostilities themselves — which does raise the slight problem of Thornmask.
He doesn’t think the tabby is actively hostile to clanlife, per say… but they were certainly aptly named.
It’s nothing outside the bounds of a difficult adjustment, yet: though he heard the other cat complaining of his new clan name during the meeting, Snakeblink also noticed the enthusiasm with which he called the new names of his fellow colony members. This is not a cat entirely lacking in loyalty — only, it seems, one whose loyalty must be won. That will come with time… and hopefully facilitated by Snakeblink’s own meddling.
Finding Thornmask alone, he sidles up to them with a neutral, hopefully trustworthy expression settled on his thin features. He carries a fish between his teeth; a peace offering that he places on the ground in open invitation. A return to the river has made hunger a thing of the past.
”Hello, Thornmask,” he greets politely, offering the other a polite nod. ”How are you settling in?” The rogues had left the camp in an ugly state, but the necessary repairs offered a good opportunity to make new space and nests for the former colony, if nothing else.
