FoxclawAmberflash sighed, as she laid down over a partially eaten rabbit. She was nearly finished, just finishing up the meat on the legs. She supposed she should get her last bites in, before the cold moved in and prey became that much more difficult to find. It was funny, how you never got used to the scarcity of prey in Leaf-bare, no matter how many seasonal cycles passed you by. She guessed that New-leaf and Greenleaf were long enough to make you forget the cold, the threat of disease, and scarce prey. She raised her head and looked to the sky, which was relatively cloudless, aside from some faint wisps of cloud high in the sky. It'd been... A long time since she had anyone she could talk to without anything in the way. Fangshadow wasn't the same since Silverwhisker died. Hazelclaw... There was this tension that never left between them. The less said about her grandkids the better. The rest... They'd all disappeared. No one else to talk to. She sighed.

Foxclaw was so very happy with his life, he could sleep again, he was aware of the joy he should have and suddenly had it. His father didn't matter I mean he was a grandfather. Birdheart was a mess but he would talk to her later, sure his son was missing but he felt it in his bones he was alive.
He noticed Amberflash looking pretty crushed by a rabbit, then again when didn't she look crushed. "hey how are you" he purred padding over to her.

Amberflash suddenly noticed a familiar face next to her. "Foxclaw?" She was extremely surprised and thought he'd disappeared like so many before him. "You're... You're still here....?" She shook her head to snap out of it.
"I... I dunno. My grandson ran off after he failed his assessment." She confessed outright to her friend.

"I just took some time to reflect on myself and life. I'm not planning on vanishing" he purred. Before adding in a more serious tone "sorry about your grandson things like that are hard.

Amberflash's gaze hardened. "Couldn't you have done that without disappearing?" She grumbled. She sighed, and scratched at the ground with a paw absentmindedly. "I probably shouldn't be that surprised. My grandkids are all a mess, and now my kids are a mess."

"your kids are a mess because of their mates and kits not because of you and I'm sorry I isolated myself" he sighed making eye contact with her "complaining makes it worse.

Amberflash gave Foxclaw a sour look. "You sure about that? It's just my grandkids. I've seen those kids of your son Speckflame's. They're sweet." She snorted. "The complete opposite of the brats Hazelclaw spawned."

"shockingly enough parents don't have much say in how their kids turn out" he said I mean speckflame's habbits were shocking to him considering how he was raided but it didn't matter "Our job is to love them it's that simple. Do you love your kits?" he asked.

Amberflash shrugged. "I guess that's true. Yeah... I do. I love my grandkids too, even if they love to throw it in my face. Well... Not all of them. Just two."

"Doesn't feel like I'm doing a good job." She grunted.

"it rarely feels like you are" he smiled "and that's because you love them you just want to give them more than you actually can".
