[quote=StandardKangaroo] Emberdust started somewhat when the medicine cat spoke up from somewhere behind her. She mentally reprehended herself for not having noticed Puddleheart at all. "Ah, sorry to interrupt," She apologized, turning her attention to the other she-cat now. At her later comment, Emberdust tilted her head a bit and sighed, "Everyone's got a busy mind lately. Has Sparrowstar told you about her plans to leave?" [/quote] "You aren't interrupting a thing" Puddleheart said, inwardly chuckling at the deputy's surprised look, but outwardly keeping a serene facade of thoughtfulness and care. then she responded to the cats other question "She has indeed, we talked at some length about it earlier" Puddleheart said quietly, she had actually been hoping to get the deputy's thoughts on the matter anyway, so her bringing it up was actually a nice coincidence.
