    "Kane - " Sabbath paused as he approached, having heard the distinct clink of glass bottles. When the bodyguard began to heave and vomit coated the ground, the tom took a step backward. Lips curling back and eyes narrowing he shook his head at the bodyguard.


    Irresponsible, disgusting. Showing up to a Clan community meeting under the influence? He scraped his paws against the snow as the smell of the toms vomit reached his nose. Wingstar, I hope you do something about this. It's disgraceful.


    Something had crawled into him and made him quite bitter, it seemed. Sabbath, once able to put out of his mind the annoyances around him, instead could focus on nothing but the disgust and disappointment he felt. Kane had been a decent warrior from what it had seemed, but the Head Bodyguard wanted nothing to with him that moment.


    Stepping toward Mountainpaw, the apprentice dipped his head in greeting to the creature. His entire appearance embodied what it was to be winter, with pure white fur and deep blue eyes. Mountainpaw was another apprentice he'd seen often - he didn't know him, but he had seen him around.


    "Hello, Mountainpaw. Wonderful to see you."

    Deviltears quite literally knew hardly anyone. He knew one or two members from his joining, but he was unfamiliar with the rest. He walked over silently, before taking a seat off to the side, his dark charcoal gaze falling upon the group that had formed. The ashen tiger let out a huff, ears perked and head turning to look over at the surrounding area.

    [justify][size=10][color=tan][font=andale mono]"Whoa! Hi there everyone! I'm new here, and my name's Flow. This is my brother Ebb." The light colored gazelle announced as she bounded into the area. Trailing behind was a darker, male version of herself. Identical twins, many shades apart. "He doesn't talk much out loud, so don't expect much from him." She nudged Ebb playfully, but he only looked across the group gathered solemnly.

    lots of people gathered around, including a rather drunk fellow, she didnt need her sight to know that, the elder curled up on the cushion, " i keep forgetting how diverse this can has gotten, i remember back during Gravelstars rule when the clan was only cats " Turtleshell mewed, on the verge of story time

    [font=dotum][color=white]Their eyes shifted from Sans to Araneolus. Huh, was it poisonous? "Oh, how come?" Rudy asked curiously. They didn't really wanna drink it anymore, they just wanted to know what it did. Huh, that was curious. They gave Ebb and Flow a wide smile, then shuffled over to greet them. They had just joined, after all, and they probably didn't have many friends yet, did they? "Hiya!" The kid greeted the duo. "Uh, we met the other day, I'm Rudy, in case you forgot or something, hehe. Uhm, hi! How are you guys? Uhm, uhm, nice day, it is, yep, hehe.." Golly, Rudy was awful at greeting acquaintances.

"Well... I think there's a certain organ inside of you that is specialized in getting rid of the toxins from your body from everyday things you eat and the waste of your body cells. Alcohol is considered a poison so that certain organ flushes it out before it causes real damage to the rest of your body, however that organ gets weaker and weaker the more alcohol you take in, which then it's properties could start damaging other important functions of the body."




    She probably got all of that wrong.

    [justify]Wingstar turned to Kane and narrowed her eyes. She hated the use of alcohol and never would she like it. "Kane, you should probably sleep that off soon," she meowed to the bodyguard, before she turned back to everyone else. "I wish we had some music," she sighed.[/justify]

    Why were they giving him such looks? It wasn't like he stepped on their tails, at least not on purpose. He wasn't the only one who got smashed in public, and he was sure of that. There was no way in hell he'd stop drinking just for them. Why was it such a big deal?


    The attempt at an explanation about the effects of alcohol to a body's system caught his attention, and he turned his head to face them. "The organ i-is called the liver. I-I figure I'm g-gonna die a-a-anyways, so why n-not drink a l-little. Uh, anyways... the l-liver flush-flushes out toxins, y-yes, an' y'know that h-high and g-giddy feeling you get on it? Y-Yeah, that's poison. But i-it feels good. But don't try it a-at your age, unl-unless you're intent on d-dying early."


    He turned a narrowed glare to Sabbath, feeling mild irritation. He lashed his tail, "Wh-What's with t-that look? I'm not h-harming-harming anyone." Sleep it off? There was no sleeping until he was sober, at least for the bodyguard.

"Music would be grand. Is anyone here a fan of classical?" Maybe someone here enjoyed classical music. She liked it because it helped block out distractions. However, Araneolus listened as Kane mocked her attempt at an explanation. She let out a quiet sigh. At least she was being ridiculed in public than dead under his paw. This did not deter her from learning something about the mammals. "Well, I thank you for advanced my span of knowledge," she said, in a calm voice. She refused to let this get on her nerves. "Now I know that particular organ is called a liver. I will make sure to write it down somewhere. I hope you have a good rest of the day."

    "You're not behaving like a respectable bodyguard," commented the ginger tabby, tail flicking. "Walking around spewing vomit everywhere." Shaking his head, he was grateful Wingstar had called Kane out on his actions. "I'd much rather bodyguards who are in top shape to be protecting the Clan, not those who can't keep their dinner in their bellies because of bad choices."

    The she-cat approached, coming to sit next to Kane. Boy, what the girl tired. Harborpaw had a bad tendency to stay up memorizing herbs. Or singing but no one needed to know that. Flicking her thin ears calmly, the apprentice looked at the tom with a chagrined frown. "You know better, Kane.." She whispered softly before standing to go and mingle. It would be nice to go around, meet new members.




    The brown and tan feline spotted Deviltears and decided to advance to him. "Hello. I.. I'm Harborpaw. What's your name?" Purred the fem, coming to sit in front of the massive male. His appearance did keep the head bodyguard on an uneasy state. But she had to keep that to the side.[/fancypost][/fancypost]

    "'S-Spewing vomit every-everywhere' my ass." The feline bodyguard snapped angrily, lashing his tail once more. He only tossed his cookies once, making 'vomiting everywhere' overly dramatic. He could hold in his lunch if he wasn't so smashed and uncaring at the moment. "-By the way, I a-am in top shape. Wanna go?"


    The last sentence was not a threat or a promise, but sarcasm. If the Head bodyguard actually took his invitation, he'd be a little surprised, but he'd still take him on if he were serious enough. After all, he had a reputation, didn't he? Kane wanted to keep it.


    He was no longer that stuttering, anxious and overly depressed 'midget' anymore. The red and white ex-Advisor had found a few ways to keep his sore spots under wraps and 'fix' them. He had enough of everyone's pity, and was tired of others trying so hard to fix him. He was so broken already, and the bodyguard didn't understand why they kept trying to fix those beyond healing, especially a dickhead and asshole like him.


    "Whatever. I'll be in my cabin. Have fun."


    Without further a-do, Kane got up from his seat, tired of being around his clanmates already, and began to walk away, even forgetting his beloved vodka.

    "Did you just threaten me?" Sabbath snapped, taken by surprise by Kane's words. Eyes wide, he looked around at the others. He refused to accept the idea that he'd just been threatened by a Clanmate. It just couldn't have happened. Could it?

    " this is not a face for fighting " Turtleshell snarled, the blind elder getting to her paws and padding over to Kane and Sabbath, " Wingstar worked to make this a nice gathering of clanmates, i dont care who did what just behave " she hissed, before coughing a little, damn hissing and snarling hurt her throat

    Listening to Kane's distorted speech and angry slurs made her sad. She wanted Kane to be truly happy, but he continued to walk further and further down a dark path and she was sometimes afraid to follow him in case she hurt him or herself because of it. Kane was a good cat, deep down, and she knew it- she just didn't know if he knew it himself.


    H-Help. She had been able to get through to him, she had been the one who pulled him out of a rage he could have damn near killed himself with... and for what? Nothing, it seemed, but alcohol and vomiting and threats. This was still not Kane.


    But... maybe it was. Maybe she was wrong. Maybe Kane just was a monster. In which case, she was done. Fleecepaw watched his retreating form as she came forward, her eyes wide and a little stunned as she had witnessed the outbreak between the two.


    She looked over to Sabbath and a small sigh came from her mouth. Sabbath had been acting oddly out of character, and while it may have seemed like just a foul attitude before now it seemed... worse. Perhaps he was going through something internal... in which case, she wouldn't butt in.


    She padded a distance away from the tom and instead stood alone near the back, listening to the conversation before finally moving forward in an almost detached way and began to use a stick to push the vomit into a huge leaf, and wrapped it up, ignoring the foul smell as she tied the end and padded off, dumping it in the dirt place. No need for the bad odor to ruin the meeting, and it had bacteria too.


    She returned to her former place and ducked her head, listening and not saying a word in fear of screwing something up. Best to keep quiet.

    [justify]"Kane, Sabbath. I want to see you both in my den," Wingstar meowed, looking around guiltily at her other clanmates. "I will be back later," she told them, then heading to the leaders den and flicking her tail as if to tell the two to follow her.[/justify]

    oh my, Turtleshell stopped, perking her ears to Wingstars voice before heading back to her cushion and seating herself, blind eyes staring ahead, " well hold up here fine while you're gone Wingstar " she mewed
