AdalineFoxpaw, like the title said, was wandering through the territory. He wasn't too keen on staying in the camp, considering his last few encounters with other cats. He usually walked to clear his thoughts. As the ginger tom continued to walk through the plains, he noticed another cat and he immediately braced himself. But he realized the Fireclan scent and calmed down. "Um... Hey!" He meowed.

((Tbh, I think Foxpaw and Brightpaw have more of an understanding-ish than Brightpaw and Hazelpaw would. Brightpaw feels very much hurt by her family. Hazelpaw errr... She's sort of angry due to a lot of assumptions and her own raging insecurities as to her competence due to her scent blindness. Foxpaw's situation is much closer to Brightpaw's I think. Sorry, rambling b/c of something Birdheart said lawl.
Brightpaw spent most of her time in the territory, so it was rather normal for her to be wandering in the snow covered prairie. Not that she knew that the snow covered prairie was different from the normal prairie. She'd been born in Leaf-bare, and as such, didn't know anything beyond the biting cold of the coldest season of the year.
Then she turned her head to see some... Tom cat. He looked like an apprentice, but older than her. She blinked. Her expression was much more neutral and lacked the usual hostility she showed towards family members. She didn't know that the cat before her was her cousin. "Uh... Hi."

((I saw that statement by Birdheart, and yeah, Bright and Fox might synthesize more with each other.
Foxpaw simply stared at the other apprentice, and shook his head slightly. He didn't know why the apprentice was out in the cold, so he thought he might as despite how stupid it sounded. "Um... May I ask why you're out here..?" He called out to her. His head tilted to the side, and he prepared himself for if the other cat asked the same question.

((.... Sympathize you mean?
Brightpaw didn't expect such a direct question towards everything she didn't really want to talk about. Her ears lowered slightly. "I'm just... Trying to get some time away from... Y'know, stressors." She answered, trying to avoid answering the question that would raise questions, she imagined. She didn't want to straight up say she was avoiding family, then the questions would come.

((Yeah... I had a brain fart XD
Foxpaw glanced to the side and dared to step forwards. He then stared at his paws and shrugged. "That's nice, especially with all the loud cats at camp." He murmured. He wasn't as naive as he was as a kit, but he still didn't understand why almost everyone he met was in such a negative mood. He didn't know if Snakepaw counted as one of those cats or not.

((It's cool. Happens to everyone.
Brightpaw shrugged. "That's true." She didn't get the need for constant noise. Was it to fill some void cats felt in their lives? In her opinion, some peace and quiet did wonders. Especially for her... Tendency to be rather negative and angry most of the time. Since getting time to herself, with large amounts of distance between her and her siblings, she'd been able to clear her head and realize... That she'd had her less than stellar moments. She didn't really want to broadcast it, since Almondpaw and Aloekit would surely mock her for it... But she was worried that her anger and hurt would turn her into someone she didn't want to be.

Foxpaw stared at his paws, and his tail twitched. The tom had always gone on walks through the territory when he got mad, it distanced himself from others so they didn't have to worry about him. He hated the negative emotions, and the cats at camp simply didn't help, in fact they only made him even more upset. "Um... You want to hunt or something..?"

Brightpaw pawed at the ground lightly. To be perfectly honest... She'd started a bit of a habit of napping during the day. Not that she got much sleep in general. She couldn't help but yawn. "I'm... A little too tired for that, honestly." She'd done her hunting the night before. She... Didn't really feel like she had the energy for it, if she was being honest.
((I... I think Bright might actually be low-key nocturnal now

((Brightowl.
Foxpaw raised his head and smiled. "Heh, fine enough. Maybe we could just talk..?" He suggested, shrugging. He noticed the she-cat yawning and he got lost in thought for a moment or two. Did she stay up all night or something? Foxpaw was more of a morning person.

((OMFGASDFGHJKL; btw.... when are you actually legit planning to have foxpaw be warrior? just curious matey. also juuuust curious are you planning to foxpaw's warrior name be a surprise?
Brightpaw nodded quietly. "That'd be nice, thank you." At least this guy seemed nice.... Then she cleared her throat. "Brightpaw. My name is Brightpaw." She said somewhat abruptly, realizing this half-way through introducing herself, and ending off somewhat awkwardly.

((Well, I might ask somebody soon. But I wouldn't mind Foxpaw's warrior name to be a surprise, but I just came up with Foxrunner.
Foxpaw chuckled a little bit at Brightpaw's awkwardness. He edged closer and flicked his tail. "Brightpaw? It suits you, with the pelt and all. And my name's Foxpaw." He introduced himself, fixing his posture.

((Mm... I see.
Brightpaw's tail wavered uncertainly upward, her ears flattening slightly in embarrassment. Compliments had a different effect on her, coming from cats who she thought she wasn't related to. "Oh. That uh, it fits you too." She'd never seen a fox, but she'd heard they had a fiery pelt.

((Curses to strep throats everywhere, it's killing me and my muse.
Foxpaw smiled, "Thanks... My Mom said I was named after my grandfather... But I don't know how to feel about it.." He meowed, gazing to the side. He liked the thought of being named after a good person, but on the other paw he wanted to be original. Well, he shouldn't complain, he's stuck with it for the rest of his life.

Brightpaw shrugged uselessly. "I don't think I was named after anyone." She answered. "Well... Your name is going to just be your's, one day, right? There's been Foxpaws before probably, but your warrior name will be unique."

Foxpaw nodded, "Well who knows, maybe a great warrior shared your prefix?" He suggested, then added. "I don't mind whatever name I get, as long as I don't end up sharing the same name with some ling lost clanmate or something." He snorted at the thought. Fox seemed like a common prefix, so that could be true.
