Cedarmouse hadn't set foot in this place since his clan had been able to return back to their camp after the fire some 5 moons ago. He thought it was odd how fast time had passed, he still remembered taking a last glance at the cave's entrance before heading off alongside his brother to go back home. And... the fire itelf. It had burned it's way into his memories, often into his dreams as well. And now, he couldn't wake up without the smell of burning fur and smoke in his nose... or the extreme fear he had felt when suddenly he and his family had been sepearated in that blazing forest. He was aware of how bad Newtglow had had it too, they had been huddled together those nights while the forest had been healing, comforting eachother silently. He knew his brother, his poor brother, had seen much more than he had. Cedarmouse wanted to do anything; everything in his power to help. It was hard accepting that all he could do was wait. His comforting words didn't tend to help for long, if at all any longer. And he knew that a simple 'sorry' would never be enough. And so he remained a hopefully soothing figure, a shoulder to cry on if he ever needed to let it out. He reminded himself often that he needed to stay strong for Newtglow, so that maybe one day he might be able to get over the loss himself. The black-and-white tom gave a long, slow sigh, and lowered his head. He felt unusually numb, and was fighting the urge to curl up inside the den right in front of him, that he could swear still smelled vaguely of his clanmates. What was even more odd was how his ears were flattened against the back of his head. He rarely let himself do this, since he always tended to be on high alert. But now that his brother finally seemed to be feeling better, he... needed some time himself. He couldn't ignore the feeling of someone he knew wasn't there, sitting beside him. He had gotten used to his brother's constant presence again, after moons of training and slow distance. He was glad for the familiarity though, especially now that so much had changed. Perch.´

Ospreycall didnt have much opinion in this place, it was a bit creepy tough, the feeling that something could just- come out of nowhere and nearly murder. What if a bear just came and killed the whole of Thunderclan? Nope, thats a depressing feeling. He could imagine kits being scared by him and his...different speech. He was still just as smart, no matter what the others said. It still hurt him. He had no idea why but it did, it made him really sad. And now, why didnt he let this cat mourn in peace, and instead why did he go sit next to them, with no warning at all. As he was looking towards the large cave entrance he thought he saw a weird shape but t was just a rock. This was awkward, really awkward. He didnt say anything, he just sat there staring in the cave entrace. How was this going to go well? Maybe if he tried to speak up- No that would make things worse, Osppreycall would just let it be. That would be just fine. Right? Eknipp

His ears immediately lifted as fur brushed his side, and he glanced up. After realizing that it was just one of his clanmates, a fellow warrior, he glanced away again and redirected himself. But now that his 'silence' had been broken, he couldn't focus and kept thinking back to the feeling of his brother's warm pelt beside him, and his clanmates somewhat familiar face that he had just glanced at. Cedarmouse suddenly felt very surprised and awkward, finally taken from his trance. He stared at Ospreycall for a moment before uttering a soft, " Thank you." to him, and looked sheepishly away again as he shifted a bit from where he sat. He wasn't sure what to say, his mind still taking a minute to catch up. And he had a feeling that the tom beside him didn't quite either, which made an odd feeling of... regret, stirr in his chest. He forced a small smile on his face to hide his muddled emotions as well as he could, while finding himself drift back into thought as his gaze shifted once again back to the black-spotted warrior.

Ospreycall felt the soft, warm fur of Cedarmouse next to him. He felt Cedarmouses breathing not matching his. Ospreycall held his breath for a few second and released it quietly, so that they would match. It was calming to be honest. Having a cat next to him. Both of them having their..problems. He lsitened to their breathing for a moment, enjoying the calmness. As Cedarmouse thanked Ospreycall, he flicked his tail. Turning his gaze slowly to the tuxedo-cat next to him he felt a bit of awe. He knew he had to respond, [or so he thought] so he gathered his courage and said. "Welcome, white midnight pelted cat." He felt a bit emberassed even tough this was the way he normally spoke, he knew it wasnt for Cedarmouse, he wasnt stupid even tough he spoke a bit differently. "Sorry that i speak like a badger on a leaf." He looked at his paws. This could go well, right? This wasnt that bad, right? Flashes of blue and waves of the breeze went in his mind. Eknipp

Cedarmouse met the black-spotted tom's eye as he turned to slowly look at him, and blinked several times in mild surprise at his response. He took a moment to try to puzzle out what his clanmate had meant, then realized that he was probably the 'White Midnight-pelted cat.' Ospreycall's embarrased look put some sense in himself, and he reminded himself of the goal he had set not long ago. He gently flicked his tail across the tom's back in an attempt at a comforting gesture. " Hello to you, too." He said quietly, and gave him a small smile. He wasn't quite sure if that was what he had meant, but there was no way he would know anyways. After all, he couldn't read minds. " You don't need to apologize, you haven't done anything wrong." He replied, dipping his head. He gave a soft chuckle, and added, " Maybe I should be apologizing, I feel like I misinterpreted something." He admitted, his smile faltering a little. Perch.´

He raised his gaze to meet Cedarmouses gaze. He started to let his emberrasment fall a little. He settled is paws in to a comfortable position. He didnt thankfully have a hard time undestanding the tuxedo-tom next to him. Ospreycall felt a bit more close to the them. He smiled as Cedarmouse said hello to him. But he wasnt sure he noticed. He felt a bit weird but it was alright, maybe it was just that Cedarmouse couldt understand him as easily as Ospreycall could him. "I do, i speak like a badger inside a beehive! I just have a..an illness of speaking" He giggled enjoying the comfort of Cedarmouses tail on his shoulders. "You understood me like the leader ordering you to grow flowers on braches." Ospreycall said also now brushing Cedarmouses back with his tail. Yellows and reds went in his mind giving him happiness and calmness. ((TW: a bit shorter then i meant it to be Eknipp

" I'm catching a... badger trend here." He chuckled, with a smile. Ospreycall's comment about 'illness' made him hesitate. He wasn't quite sure how he thought of his interesting way of speaking, but an illness hadn't exactly been it. He just saw his denmate's way of speaking as something that made him unique. The tuxedo-pattered tom quickly corrected his posture after he realized his head started to tilt to the side thoughtfully, and murmured the other thing aloud that had been on his mind. " You remind me more of a... Heron, though. In some ways. Mysterious, but in a... curious way." He explained, with some paw jestures as he spoke. He hesitated again as his clanmate spoke, and thought about the comparison with evident curiosity. " I'm tempted to say thank you," He admitted, and added, " It'd be odd if I were to make flowers grow off of trees, though. Seeing as i'm a... well, Water Elemental." He huffed with amusement.

Ospreycall gave a small laugh, was it true? Did he say badger too much? Well he had to admit that he was a little over using the word. He felt awe, The tuxedo Tom was actually interested in having a conversation with him, It was wonderful, nearly the best thing! "I think i need to follow my toque carefully." Ospreycall said. His ears perked up as he listened to Cedarmouse now i miss the generator cedarmouse, Was Cedarmouse serious? Did he mean that Ospreycall wasnt..that he wasnt different in a bad way? It filled him with warmth and happiness, from the same thing that had made him emberrassed and overwhelmed. He felt some sort of proudnes of the way he spoke and thought, rather then hate and sadness. "Your a water elemental? Aha. Im one too!" He said splashing water in Cedarmouses face with his paw, playfully but not so that it would hurt or get stuck in ears, he hoped. Eknipp

Cedarmouse felt his smile linger on his face much longer than it usually did, Ospreycall's awe and pure happiness was making him feel... good. He gave a soft chuckle, and nodded. " Perhaps you do." He could tell clearly that his kind words had meant something to the white-and-black tom, and slowly relaxed enough to let a soft look of cheerful releif come across his face. And the more he listened and watched his denmate, the more... familiarity, he felt from him. It was soothing, in a way, to be talking to someone like this again. He had never realized that he had missed this. " Oh, you are too? That's wonderful! Perhaps we could spar together sometime, then. If you'd like." He suggested warmly, then went on as the words bubbled up into his chest. " I don't think i've practiced my element in a while, since I was made a warrior." He admitted, tightness slowly taking the releif from his expression. But something seemed to cross his mind almost immediately, and the look dissappeared. " But that's okay. I don't really need to now, anyways." He said in a tone resembling reassurance, then wondered if he had only said that to reassure himself. Perch.´

Ospreycall let out a loud but short: "Ha!" as Cedarmouse agreed on him watching what he says. Maybe..just maybe this cat liked his company. A calm feeling went threw him. He was relaxed and he was going to enjoy this, if he could that was. Warm colors and snow crunching under paws went inside his head. "I agree, but lets not make water fill our insides all the way." He responded to Cedarmouses idea. He gave an affectionate bump to Cedarmouse as he started talking about not training in a while. He nodded when Cedarmouse disregarded the idea. Actually, Ospreycall himself hadnt practiced himself that much either. "Maybe some time, ill inform eknipp ya when its not jump from side to side -time for me, and hopefully then you wont have to eat air for breakfast."
"Lets go explore this mystery of mysteries!" Ospreycall noded towards the cave that he took steps towards, It was a bit creepy but it was abonden, ooo what could be there? Eknipp

He exhaled softly, a smile morphing across his face again. That little sigh was probably the closest thing he'd gotten to a laugh in a while. " Yeah, i'll make sure to stay super focused." He replied, in a humored, but reassuring tone. But once again, he found himself rambling on. " I don't have a clue how Sagewhisker... Or, well, much of anyone would fix something like that though. Sounds... filling." A rather apprehensively thoughtful look crossed his face. "Not the good kind, though." The next thing his denmate said had him rather confused, which was not surprising, but he was trying his best to be very careful not to let it show as he worked out what he thought the dappled tom meant by 'jump from side to side time' and 'eating air for breakfast.' He nodded slowly after a moment, forever glad for his quick wits, and murmured, " I'd appreciate that, thank you. I don't want you to be uncomfortable, If you are please tell me. I'm not perfect, but I can always try to help." After his 'speech,' he felt a lingering sense of doubt. He hoped that he had interpreted correctly, it would be awfully embarrasing and shameful if he had been way off. He hoped that his denmate felt comfortable enough to admit something like that, even just the thought of messing up so foolishly was making him feel guilty. And he hadn't even had conformation yet! He let out an airy sigh as he drifted back out of his muddled thoughts, and found himself staring at the fellow warrior as he looked back at him. He let out an instinctual, " Oh, sorry," and tried to ignore the prickly feeling of the fur rising along the back of his neck. He quickly found himself following the tom's gaze as he glanced into the tunnel, and hesitated again at his suggestion. " I'm not sure if it's safe, it's been 5 whole moons since we were all in there last. Though, with the patrols... hm. Okay, sure. Why not." He seemed assured enough by the fact that this spot must be patrolled at least somewhat frequently, and sat up with a nod to his denmate. " Go ahead, lead the way. I'll follow." Perch.´
