He had had a late night. Earlier the previous day, Mantispaw had managed to sneak away and spend some alone-time in his favorite hiding spot. It was where the young tom-cat had came since he was a young kit with his mother. It allowed him to clarify his thoughts and rejuvenate himself, which was important. The only problem was that more often than not, Mantispaw found himself having to sneak into camp late at night due to him becoming preoccupied with what he was doing (falling asleep, visiting with a friend, etc). Last night had been one of those occurrences, and Mantispaw had found himself hunting alone until past dawn. He had snuck in just in time to get two hours asleep, which was where he was now. Stretching very groggily out of a short nights sleep and exiting the Apprentices den, Mantispaw found his way over to the fresh-kill pile, looking around for something to satisfy his hunger. "Does anybody want to share something with me?" he meowed, loud enough for passing warriors and apprentices alike to hear. Hopefully, someone would take up his offer.

"W-What is it t-that you're s-sharing?" A smooth, masculine current of wind did erupt beautifully from the weeping willows in which he stood underneath, those malachite eyes blinking handsomely as he approached the younger apprentice with slight confidence... But mostly fondness. He'd taken notice to the sluggishness that was Mantis, and frankly it was amusing to him. Recalling nights where he wandered freely upon Riverclan, normally they were very blissful, yet some he would rather not think about. Death, drowned deep inside of him. Kidnappings. Thieves. Life was... Cold. That didn't mean he had to be."Time, w-words, n-news perhaps?" He sat down beside the male, smiling softly and letting himself take in the sights of the food pile. Ah, a meal? Hum... "W-What are y-you in the m-mood for?" Chase wasn't too picky, he had his favourites though.

A bright yellow gaze focused upon Chasingpaw, and Mantispaw offered the male a warm smile. "Good morning Chasingpaw," as the tom-cat settled down beside him, Mantis gazed back down at the freshkill pile, trying to decide what he wanted. There was a vole that looked appetizing, and it was big enough for two. But did he want vole? "What are your thoughts on vole?" he meowed, returning his gaze to him. Not everybody liked vole, and he wouldn't force the tom to eat anything unappetizing. He pointed towards the vole. "That one looks pretty good, and it's big enough for two?"
(thank you!! excited to be here!!)

Lizardpaw joined the two toms, curiosity flickering in his eyes. Though, he realized they were probably stuck in a conversation together. He wasn’t needed now, was he? Of course not. Mantispaw was talking to the handsome Chasingpaw, and Liz realized he probably just looked like a deer in headlights standing there. Mantispaw did strike a curious chord in him. Wouldn’t hurt to get to know his denmates? That was, if they’d let him join in. He was too shy to say anything, mostly just trying to inch closer to the toms.

The cream and white tom who was really quite unusually would make his way over, his dark sapphire blue eyes glimmering as he spotted the three apprentices. "Good morning," Flowerkit would say cheerfully, tipping his head to the side and allowing his ears to flop[ over as well. His unusually bushy tail would flick behind him as he sat down, smiling softly. "Mind f i join you?" he'd add, curiosity in his soft voice.

It was great to see his clan mates getting to know each other. Since Toadpaw liked talking, spending time with the younger cats, anything to be a little lazy. The brown tom made his way over with energy pouring out of them. Maybe they could all train together one day or play by the river, that sounded like a good idea to him. "Morning everyone!" .riverclan ⇧ apprentice ⇧ 9 moons ⇧ boy ⇧ npc x npc ⇧ tags

Mantispaw's eyes lit up at the sight of everyone that had joined him, and a deep purr erupted from his chest. "Everyone is welcome!" he answered to Flowerkit. Then, glancing over to Lizardpaw, he motioned for the tom to take a seat. "On second thought, maybe we should try to find something all of us could share.." he laughed, studying the pile again. "I'm not so sure there's something big enough?"

"If we maybe grab two big fish, everyone can have some of each?" Flowerkit would suggest, though he wasn't entirely sure if it was a helpful idea.
