i'm golden I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name Like a fool at the top of my lungs Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright But it's never enough Cause my echo, echo Is the only voice coming back Shadow, shadow Is the only friend that I have

"That's right," he murmured with a rueful shrug. "Perhaps he'll appear again one day. We were never really that close. I just......It's family, y'know? I guess I just expected more." He'd never thought his love for his family, or the trust he put in his clan was a weakness. He didn't think it now. But it was a little disheartening. "Do you have any siblings?" He asked suddenly. She would have left them behind, coming to Rockclan.

"Oh, well then," he tipped his heads, ears flicking to the side happily. "I'm glad to be your friend, Anemonemist." He fell into a thoughtful silence, a little confused by the question. She wanted to know how to act? It seemed like a strange question to him, but then, apparently Anemone hadn't had a friend either? It was a little sad. "How to act? You act like you. You wouldn't be my real friend otherwise."

[Anemonemist]

Anemonemist shrugged at the question, almost debating not answering. Her kin were... well, they existed she was sure. But identities and locations were all but forgotten within her life. For, her memory only served for the knowledge of healing. Most anything else that didn't have an impact on her life wasn't needed to be recalled on. "I only know of three sisters." Anemonemist admitted, settling her eyelids close with a ragged sigh. "No names or if they're still alive. I wasn't exactly close to any one of my kin... I have little, if any, memories of them." It was a depressing thought. But in the outside world, it wasn't uncommon for cats to want the independent life. Her sisters had all been the same, and Anemonemist had been forced to take her own path by their actions. Her three sisters all disappeared and forgot about her, while she simply had no choice but to survive on her own. She wasn't sad by that fact, though. It had always been as if she walked in a completely different world than everyone else around her.

Act like myself. the RockClan healer repeated, before taking another bite of her mouse. There was a reason she had no friends, and it was because she always acted like herself. Head in the clouds and only thinking about one subject, finding no need to really go out of her way to socialize if there was no reward, and a personality that ranged from amusing to frustrating. Yet if Raggedwolf was willing to look past her flaws, then she admired him. If he crushed under the weight, she would possible set up his own murder and hope he wouldn't spread any rumors about her attitude before death. Plans aside, Anemonemist gave a short nod. "... Alright. But I'm warning you, I've received mixed comments about how I act." growled the RockClan medicine cat.

"Three sisters? Wow." He often romanticized large families, and wished he knew more about his own. At least he'd been able to live with his brother and sister, before they'd both disappeared. "I'm sorry. I bet you miss them." He offered sympathetically, unable to think of many things worse than losing those you loved.

Raggedwolf snorted skeptically. Every individual had likeable traits and unlikeable ones, that wasn't anything strange. "If you're happy and chirpy all the time, I'd call you unrealistic and painful to be around," he offered instead like a smile. "I already said; act like yourself. If that means acting the way you want, then I can definitely handle it. I wouldn't be much of a friend myself otherwise." Since he was exactly the same. He was kind, too much so sometimes to the extent that he'd let others walk over him without a care. If Anemone could be his friends with those personality quirks, then he'd be stupid not to embrace hers. "You definitely won't scare me away." Then he glanced at the mouse and smiled. "Does it taste ok? I probably put an embarrassingly long amount of time into choosing it."

[Anemonemist]

Raggedwolf acted like three sisters was such a big thing. When, as Anemonemist had learned, Queens from the four clans had dozens upon dozens of kits... all ending up to be brothers and sisters of one another. That was a big family. But, perhaps Raggedwolf didn't belong to such a bloodline. Maybe he only had a few blood-relatives here and there, much like Anemonemist. At least the two had another thing in common besides being both RockClanners. "No. I don't miss them." she said simply with a blank expression and light shrug of her shoulders. "I did my own thing as a kit, and they did their's. Maybe if I was closer to them and actually knew their names, I would feel some obligation to miss them... but to be honest, I think my life is just fine the way it is without worrying about long lost kin."

"Hmm. I suppose you make sense." the speckled healer mused. But she did feel better knowing Raggedwolf at least accepted her as she was. Even if he barely knew her, it was at least a start at friendship. And maybe that would be good for her in the future. "I'll hold you to your word, then, that you won't just back out once you get to know me more." Though, she was smiling faintly.

Anemonemist's dusty blue eyes dropped to the mouse. "Oh? And what made you believe this mouse was so special?" she teased, lifting her gaze back onto his. After a moment, she added with a light laugh. "It tastes fine. Your welcomed to a bite, even... though I don't usually like to share, so I suggest you really consider my offer."
