With all the swirling rumors lately, a clan cat couldn't be too cautious. Thistletail had taken it upon herself to regularly find a nice sunny spot close to the Windclan borders. While Riverclan had allied themselves with Vipereye and his followes for a short spell, they had done so at the cost of their leader, Whitestar. Being a tad superstitious herself, Thistle believed the ordeal to be a warning. They'd do best to keep their distance now and let Windclan lick their wounds. While she wished their new leader well, the battle with their former and his followers tended to unsettle her stomach. Such squabbles were never over so easy, hence why her careful paws drew her closer to a creek that separated the two clans. She didn't mind her silent watch, and besides, her solo routines also allowed her to nap on the job if the inclination overtook her. For whatever the reason, her mind was prone to wander at night and the poor cat couldn't seem to rest well while the moon hung high.
At last, she found herself a soft sunny patch of moss that grew just a few yards away from the creek's edge. Settling in, she laid down and tucked her front paws beneath her fluffy chest. The gentle gurgles of the creek tickled her ears as her eyes watched a wayward branch float by. Thistletail had always favored greenleaf time over any of the others. Her thick fur easily kept her warm, even as the early morning mists hovered over the groves. Her white coat and yellow patches of fur made her easy to spot, and she wasn't really trying to conceal herself- She was a warrior within Riverclan territory, and she hadn't yet scented anything beyond her own clan. It was such a peaceful, cozy morning. Perhaps she'd even try to catch a fish to take back to camp later.
Content to bask in the early morning sun, time slipped slowly by as her eyes narrowed into sleepy slits. Had the sun ever felt so warm? Ah, how she'd missed basking in it throughout those chilly winter moons. As mid-day approached, the rustling leaves and chiping birds lulled her into a light slumber. Clearly, there was nothing happening around this little slice of the border today. Perhaps the worries and ponderings that kept her awake at night held no hold over her during daylight.

though the battle was long since done and over with now, blossomtalon still felt the soreness in her muscles and the stinging of the wounds buried in her pelt. she'd gotten off relatively light, but many of her peers weren't so lucky... including her own apprentice. sedgepaw had gotten some nasty scars on his face and it infuriated her. she should've been able to protect him, and splashmist too, but she hadn't been strong enough. even though they were both alive and fine, it still irritated her. the brown tabby let out an annoyed sigh as she stalked through riverclan's expansive territory, pretty much just walking in circles. she'd already been on patrol earlier and wasn't eager to be put to work again so soon, so she decided to take a walk. maybe she'd hunt a bit if she were feeling up to it.[break][break]
she stopped as she caught a familiar scent lingering near the border with windclan, and upon closer inspection she was able to put a name to the scent. thistletail. blossomtalon's ears twitched, and while she had half a mind to just turn around and leave the other molly to it... something nagged at her, helping convince her otherwise. she rolled her eyes and shook her head and slowly slunk out of her hiding place, coming up beside the other molly. "everything looks peaceful out here." she grumbled reluctantly, firmly fixing her gaze out into the depths of windclan's distant territory.[break][break]
"really wish things would stay this way forever. would be less of a pain in the tail." she gave the other molly a side glance, and with a small smirk reached out a paw and gently prodded the other molly's side. "hey, you awake? this place is nice, but i don't know if i'd consider it prime nap material." after a moment she shook her head slightly and flopped onto her rear beside her with a snort. "seriously, though, the other clans are so annoying. how does anyone even put up with them?"

Long nights awake had finally caught up to the she-cat, and she entirely missed the start of conversation. The sun was simply too warm, too inviting. The grass was too soft and lush.
Only when a gentle poke nudged her side did the warrior awake with a sputtering rasp. Who? What? Sleepy-eyed, her head swiveled around to look at the cat who'd poked her awake with a paw. Recognition flickered across her features. Oh, Blossomtalon. She knew her. A sheepish grin flashed across her maw as she smiled, half-embarrassed at being caught in the middle of a cat-nap.
"hey, you awake? this place is nice, but i don't know if i'd consider it prime nap material. Seriously, though, the other clans are so annoying. how does anyone even put up with them?"
"Yup," she sniffed, or snorted rather, "'M wake." Or rather, she was now. Blinking slow, it took a brief moment for her clan-mates words to filter through her mind well enough to be comprehended. Blossomtalon wasn't wrong, this wouldn't be an area best suited for napping- Not so close to the borders. The cat stretched a paw out to roll a shoulder in a half-hearted shrug. Oops. She hadn't meant to doze off truthfully.
Despite it all, Thistletail couldn't ward off a yawn and a shake of her head to further flush sleep from her fur. "Beats me. I don't know how anyone can get past that smell either. They all reek." An idea caught her, and she flashed a mischievous tooth to cut a joke. "Ya know, I bet if we dunked one in the river it'd help." A cat could hope. A soft chuckle escaped her maw.
Her front paws crossed to better prop herself up. A moment passed and a curious eye glanced over at the younger warrior. Thistletail remembered the cat's naming ceremony moons ago. Since then, Blossomtalon had grown into a talented warrior of the clan. She remembered seeing her fighting tooth and nail against those Windclan rogues. Had the past battle stolen sleep from her too? Stolen friends? Stolen futures? Had worries crept into her skull and gnawed on her thoughts?
Her gaze drifted back towards the creek, "How've you been doing, hm?"
