she stiffened at his touch before attempting to shrug his hug off. "stop, i need you to listen to me, sodapop!" she cried, pushing her muzzle between her paws and shaking her head quickly. she remained like that for a minute before lifting her head and looking at the lion. "i'm not your mother, i know this, but i want -- no, i need you to understand this. i do care for you as my own son. and if that means that you end up hating me for it, so be it."

"i . . . i could do with some practice," essie admitted with a tense chuckle as she approached. she hadn't fought or even sparred in over half a year, so practice really was necessary. "i won't be very good though, i can guarantee it."

his pained expression caused her chest to tighten and eskimokisses had to look away from sodapop to regain her composure. "i just want you to be honest with me, soda! tell me what you really think!"

she listened silently, nodding her head as the lion spoke. "thank you, sodapop," she whispered finally, but her voice was strained. "i shouldn't've been so hard on you though. i should've just . . . talked to you in private about it."

"of course i do," she murmured, reaching out to touch her paw to soda's cheek. "cigarettes will kill you, soda, and can easily get addicted to them. neither of them are any sort of joke, sodapop. i won't let either happen to you, not while i'm here."

essie nodded her head before continuing softly, "yes, and believe me, you will make many mistakes, more than you can count on all of your paws together. but there are some thing that you won't be able to fix if you make those mistakes. you can't undo cancer, soda, and addiction is a life-long thing." her thoughts turned briefly to cayson, his own catnip addiction, and she wondered what had happened to him. "there are some things i have to protect you from."

she paused for a few seconds, considering it. "with moderation, though i would prefer if you waited until you were a warrior, or at least close to it. you can get addicted to alcohol just the same as cigarettes though, so you would have to be careful with it."

essie smiled softly, pride lighting up in her chest for a moment. long term she doubted those words -- she had said them herself not very long ago -- but that didn't change how she felt about them now. "i love you, sodapop. you know that, right?"

"well, that's nice," she murmured agreeably. "i've seen a beach once before. i like them, especially with how the ocean tides and currents move. it's relaxing." of course, she had not been at the rift, but at the rebellion of terminus. the difference between the groups was unknown to her, but she drew up the connection anyway.

Essie came up besides Jonathan, watching sodapop with some tension between her eyes. she didn't like the idea, and she worried about not seeing soda again due to her general concern of abandonment. "if you want to I can't stop you," she murmured simply, glancing down and leaning against jonathan. "be safe."

sodapop had simply decided to leave. what had he said, that he had to explore a little? the idea was so foreign to her, she herself having never left windclan except for a singular visit to darkclan as a kitten. even that, however, was only because her mother didn't give her much of an option, plus their relationship then wasn't so tense. now of course the savannah knew that the whole trip was just an excuse for her mother to spend some 'quality' time with her secret boyfriend but whatever.

by this point, people leaving was just something eskimokisses expected to deal with. truly, in her mind it was only days until jonathan decided to get up and disappear, or maybe he would be one of the first to actually tell her to her face where and why he was leaving. he seemed to be a stand-up sort of character, so perhaps he would give her that at least.

it was a sad thing for the young adult to think, just over a year old and expecting to simply be left alone at every turn of her life. that type of cynicism in someone so young was enough to break your heart, and yet she saw it as something that was as usual as simply eating or breathing. you loved and you lost, that was how the saying went right? love had a cyclical nature in her mind and some cycles took longer than others, but they all started over at one point.

sitting in the center of camp with a small bird at her paws, the feline sniffled quietly. her eyes were free of tears at this point, but discoloured a bright red colour that betrayed the crying she had done. eskimokisses looked down at the bird, simply staring at the dead avian with a blank stare.

the last few days had been hard for essie. between sodapop leaving and falling back into her usual cycle of despair, the savannah had not been up to leaving the small cottage she and johnny had picked out. indeed, her thin form was slightly more gaunt than usual, her coat lacking some of the usual luster it held. still, when jonathan called her the female couldn't resist rising to her paws and discovering what he had waiting for her.

sweetest day was something she had never heard of, and so she had not even the faintest idea of what he could be wanting to ask her. really, she just assumed he wanted to talk to her about sodapop, though then she wondered why he would call for her publicly in that case. "yeah, johnny?" she asked as she approached, blinking up at the bengal tiger curiously.

she was surprised as the tiger pulled out the box of chocolates and the bunch of roses. her eyebrows shot up and her ears perked forward before pulling back into their resting stance against her skull. "aw, johnny," she breathed, a blush rising up in her cheeks as she looked at the advisor and his gifts. "you shouldn't have," eskimokisses quickly added, stepping forward to bump her muzzle against the big cat's foreleg.

essie trotted up beside jonathan, taking a seat before leaning against his side. her pale eyes remained mostly on the ground in front of her paws, glancing up every once in a while to look at jax before hurrying to return her line of sight to the ground.

essie closed her eyes as jonathan kissed her forehead, leaning somewhat more heavily against his sturdy form. she remained that way when jax announced her stepping down, pushing her muzzle into the tiger's fur. it was mostly to hide her personal shame, knowing how proud the big cat had been of her when she was promoted. she simply felt that her presense around the clan had dwindled far too much to justify her position and figured it would be better to simply step down graciously than demoted, as had happened to coralie mae.

her muzzle remained burrowed into the tiger's crimson pelt, inhaling his scent with each gentle breath, but her ears flicked actively as jax spoke. the amount of high positions put on probation or demoted was fairly shocking when you considered only one person was promoted. even more shocking was rhymescheme willingly resigning. it was something eskimokisses never really saw coming, especially with how long the female had held a high position.

she had been flickering in and out of activity for weeks, before finally disappearing. it was early morning when eskimokisses finally reappeared on the edge of the territory. she simply stood there, covered completely in dried mud and natural debris and shaking like a leaf. the only part of her free from the black-brown coating were her eyes, which were wide and looked around wildly.

"h-h-h-hello?" she called out now, voice trembling as violently as her body. "i-is anyone out t-there?"

the first to approach had a coat of crimson and emeralds for eyes. jonathan toews was a lumbering mass in his bengal tiger body, and as he quickly approached the savannah couldn't help but shrink away, brushing her chest against the ground as she crouched closely to it.

"don't hurt me!" she cried out, and her tone held a level of fear practically unheard from her even in her worst moments. her voice was high and strangled, almost immediately sodden with heavy emotion that weighed on her vocal chords and caused fluctuations in her tone. there were a few more half-tonne seconds where the female whimpered, eyeing several more big cats as they approached.

there was, among those who had gathered, a consistent murmuring of 'eskimokisses', and the female couldn't decipher the important behind that word in that moment. in her moment of heightened sensitivity -- physically, mentally, and emotionally -- it took little more than their concerned words to push the tabby into overdrive despite her exhausted state, and soon tears sprung to her eyes and the female continued to cry, "where am i? who are you? please don't hurt me! please!"

as those who tried to comfort her murmured soft reassurements, eskimokisses continued to shake with sobs, pressing her forehead against the dirt as her tears washed bright stripes through the mud on her cheeks. "please, please, please ..."she continued to whimper, pressing her ears down with her paws and squirming against the morning grass. it only grew worse when sam attempted to convince her to eat the flower petals, essie's filthy form scrambling backwards and turning up dirt where her claws sunk into the soft soil.

"i-i-i don't know who any of you are," es cried, confusion flooding her. "w-what do you mean you were my friend? I don't understand what you're saying." shaking her head firmly, the savannah let out a wheezy sigh. "please just help me."

eskimokisses's web of relations connected her to nearly everyone in the thread in some way. jonathan, her boyfriend and mate, wingstar, her aunt, were the most obvious, but upon closer inspection even roepaw and steampunk were connected to her in some way. roepaw, one of aztecruin's siblings, would have been her brother-in-law if their original plan had been followed through, and steampunk had at one point crushed on essie's mother (if she had known of this, es would likely connect the end of that to the public discovery that refinedgrace was a narcissistic cheater, at least in essie's eyes).

clearing her throat softly, eskimokisses would glide past the ex-medic, glancing sideways to see his narrow his eyes at jonathan. recognizing her own initial reaction to him admitting his secret to her, the warrior linked his actions to jonathan's life as a former human. letting out a quiet huff, the long legged female sat herself down next to the tiger, brushing her leg against his own as she took a regal posture, one that almost imposed a challenge just in the way she sat. her chin jutted sharply in the air as she sided obviously with the crimson goliath, and the female only murmured, "eskimokisses."
