Out in the (Open) Sky

[Silentdust]

Silentpaw felt she was going to insanity.

She didn't do anything evil or anything, Sli just wanted company for once. Rockclan felt a little empty lately and the black she-cat statyed behind to watch over the camp, she wouldn't do well because of her asthma anyways. She sat on a rock near the entrance of camp, and watched for a cat to walk by.

[Martenpaw]

martenpaw kind of liked the odd absence of his clanmates in the recent sunrises. having quite a lot of trouble engaging in social situations, the ginger cat found it a lot easier to move about without needing to sneak past other cats. except, apparently, he still needed work.

a pair of eyes felt as though they were burning holes into the back of his neck. clan guards. orange eyes fleetingly looked towards silentpaw, and martenpaw flattened his ears. can you, like, not be a creep and stop watching me. that would be great, actually, his thoughts groaned. “uh.” was the only thing to come out of his mouth. smooth.

[Silentdust]

Silentpaw didn't know how to react to the other apprentice's reply to her rather huge eyes. She flinched back a bit when she realized what she was doing and shuffled her paws awkwardly. "Oh, sorry! I really seen many cats lately.." She meowed, flattening her ears. Silentpaw again was left in the judgemental state of her self esteem, way to go, Sli.

(My muse is dead)

[Martenpaw]

the tiniest movement martenpaw saw silentpaw make, and he immediately jumped back in a mirror image. the skin beneath his short fur began to warm. it was awkward enough without you being such a dolt, he scolded himself. except, well, it's not really all my fault, anyway. aren't sentinels supposed to look out for danger? what the darkpool kinda danger can she find within her own clan? martenpaw barely caught silentpaw's words, too entrapped by his own musings. "o-oh.." he started, "i guess.. you're for--forgiven..?"

[Silentdust]

Silentpaw didn't know how to react, all that was happening with her mind was a crash. She sighed when the other cat spoke, thank Cloudclan. "Thanks... Um. You want to talk?" She asked, feeling like she just stabbed herself. Was she too blunt?

[Martenpaw]

and i thought i was horrible at social interaction. this one's acting like it's her first time to talk to another cat in, like, ever, he thought, though it wasn't as if martenpaw could be so judgemental. he himself had trouble making eye contact with her and the syllables of words seemed stuck in his throat. "..okay," he responded, simultaneously groaning in silence because did he really just subject himself to this?

[Silentdust]

Silentpaw's brain started wailing to Cloudclan, oh lord, did he find her annoying? She shifted her brown eyes away from the other cat, but spoke again. "How have you been doing lately?" She asked, flattening her ears.
