Hawksong was only half-listening, being so focused on how well she had played her sweet-and-innocent role. She saw the boiling expression on Deathshadow's face and smirked with her eyes. She couldn't wait to shove it in hi- wait. What did Duststar say? Did he just- what? Her ears perked up sharply. She was a bit dumbfounded by the leader's words. No one usually let intruders into their clans.. did they? "Wait, you want me to join ShadowClan?" 

She retreated into her mind for a moment and started to think. Clans. She had been without for seven moons. But that was her own fault, and she started to accept that. More importantly, she kinda started to regret. Duststar's offer was a big deal for her. And it was a simple answer that did not need thought at all. Just a yes or no.

But Hawksong was worried. What if she blew it? She didn't want to make the same mistake she made in her father's clan. Then again.. she'd be chased out if she refused the offer anyway. So she really couldn't go wrong and finally snapped back into reality. Hesitantly, she nodded slowly and washed away any kind of anxiety she had in her eyes. "I accept and would love to join your clan." That oddly felt better. She would try to not mess it up this time.
