He was right, Maplestream was a strong and capable warrior, the chances were she’d gotten side tracked and not realized how long she’d been away from camp. Nothing bad will have happened to her, probably. The she-cat’s whiskers twitched as she listened attentively to what Stonefall had to say. When he confessed his own worries about his duties as deputy, she blinked comfortingly at him, reaching out to nudge his shoulder with her forehead briefly. [b][color=f9ad81]“Well, I think you’re doing a great job, so far.”[/color][/b] she promised. [b][color=f9ad81]“Fernstar chose you for a reason, too, you’re a good cat. A lot of the Clan look up to you, you know.”[/color][/b] even her, though she wasn’t quite brave enough to admit it yet. Speaking of the leader, though, Stonefall quickly had to excuse himself as Fernstar needed him for something, so she gave him a quiet purr of her own, nodding. [b][color=f9ad81]“Okay. Take care, I’ll see you when you get back.”[/color][/b] She turned her attention back towards her other Clanmates, just in time to hear them talking about some sort of creature called a...a horse? Well, Spidernose had never heard of such a thing before, and her mother had taught her about a great many of the other animals that the Clan were sharing their territory with. But, if Stormheart said he’d seen some then they [i]must[/i] be a real thing, so Spidernose twitched her whiskers in amusement and chuckled. [b][color=f9ad81]“No need to apologise, Honeypaw. It’s good practise, someday when you’re on watch duty without me you may have to talk to hunting patrols or the medicine cats as they pass you while watching out for danger at the same time.”[/color][/b] Her tail whisked absently through the snow as she thought, angling her ears to the other fully grown warrior as she added. [b][color=f9ad81]“Besides, stories from cats that came from other walks of life before joining WillowClan can be good and helpful information for us to protect the Clan from future dangers. I can’t say I’ve ever seen one of these…”horses” before...are they dangerous?”[/color][/b] she asked the tom, equal parts wary and curious to know more.
