Oh, was Animatedpaw overjoyed. They were interested, and were congratulating her, as matter of fact! "Thank you, everyone!" she yipped excitedly, giving Inquisitivekit, Nox, and Pastkit grateful smiles and shooting one in Sharkbait's genral direction. It wasn't very likely he'd see, but it was whatever. She then nodded eagerly at Pisces and Hyacinthia, quite happy to have reached the age where she could train with friends. Only then noticing how downcast Pastkit appeared to be (to her), she nudged him lightly with her nose, giving him a wide, hopefully reassuring grin. Upon Vanillatwilight's arrival, she dipped her head slightly, before granting her, too, a wide, grateful grin.

"Hey, Seafoam, could I have another?" she asked merrily, trotting back up to him. The previous task had been completed, with some reluctance and embarrassment, of course.

Her bags of belongings laid on the ground beside her, and her gaze was fixed upon Vanillatwilight. Animatedpaw liked the new territory, even if it wasn't her absolute favorite. The trees were coated with pink leaves, and it was actually quite gorgeous upon second glance. She was very excited to move in, however much she'd miss their old home. She knew she'd enjoy this change.
A grin slowly spread across her maw as she heard the different ranks as well, bouncing lightly up and down on her paws. This would really be a very amazing day. "Noted," she yipped, voice faltering slightly at the end. She surely wouldn't admit it aloud, but, in all honesty, the husky wasn't entirely fond of all these changes. Animatedpaw had been extremely last-minute in packing up her things, and she'd been entirely reluctant to make the journey.
Oh, well. No going back now.

That was it. The chatter of games had drawn her near. "Hi! I'm Animatedpaw, but most call me Ani! Nice to meet you, Splash!" she yipped cheerily in a museless post.

Animatedpaw had clearly not rested well the previous night, but she'd gotten up, stretched, and stepped into the clearing without a second thought. Ears perking at the familiar sound of the beginnings of small talk, she trudged over to the source, head low and paws nearly tripping over one another. "Hey, Cinthia, Freedomfighter," she greeted with a tired yawn, giving them both small smiles as well. The husky usually had restful nights with fantastical dreams and woke up early, but today had been an exception to that rule.

Animatedpaw presently sat directly before the Asian shrine, her eyes closed and head angled downward. She'd become a stu- wait, no, trainee almost directly before the move, and she'd never forget the place she'd spent six moons of her life at. She'd miss the summer camp, surely, but change could be good, and, no matter her reluctance, she'd make a home here. She vowed it to herself.
The husky would also train here, which is what she'd planned for upon arriving to the clearing. She hoped no one had planned to use the space before, as she was there now, and ready to begin her training. Animatedpaw had every intention to become an impressionist when she reached the age, but now she was to train. Thoughts drifting away, she waited there for her mentor, still and silent, lost in nostalgia and memories made recently. She wasn't handling this all too well.

Trotting over with an interested expression, Animatedpaw found herself staring up in awe at the new dragon body. "That's so cool, Hyacinthia!" she gushed, sitting down to see the albino creature better. She liked her husky body, but she definitely wouldn't reject having a cool one like that. "Can I get a ride, after...?" she trailed off, suddenly aware she didn't know the serval's name, so she just nodded in Darius' directions.

Her eyes had blinked open upon the sound of talk, and she got slowly to her paws, then padding over to the growing group with a tilted head and a soft groan. Animatedpaw looked towards the jackal, brows furrowing in concern. Nightmares? "And I'm sorry, Pisces, that you had a bad dream," she murmured in response, figuring it wouldn't be worth the effort to trudge back into an uneasy sleep yet again.

"That looks really awesome!" Animatedpaw complimented with a cheerful expression, chipper as could be. The color change looked very lovely with her pelt. Wow. All these cool things.

It had been a mistake. Did she deserve it? Not likely. Had it happened? Yes.
Animatedpaw had been sitting at the edge of the walkway, gaze resting on the sky, head angled upward. She'd come to enjoy the serene nature of their new camp, though nightmares still plagued her rest daily. She let out a content sigh, the only sounds other than her own breathing being the gentle buzz of insects, an occasional splash in the pond, and the wind rushing by her ears. She was unmoving.
And then came a push.
It was soft, just like all else in her fragment of the world, but it was there, and the canine was caught unaware. Eyes firing open in alarm, she let out a shocked yip, just before toppling into the pond, sending up a wave of drops and splashes. Now submerged, Animatedpaw began struggling, paws flailing about in every direction, but, for all her effort, she was unable to reach the top for more than an instance. This area of the pool was not, by far, the deepest, but she was small and had never been the greatest at swimming. After what seemed like an eternity of struggling, she fell still, and, despite the burning pain in her lungs, she felt a sudden sense of peace rush over her. The husky now drifted to the bottom, her eyelids feeling heavy, and she let them close, feeling she would welcome inevitable death with open arms.
Then it hit her; death was not the only inevitable thing.
Quite literally, it hit her. Animatedpaw's head had lolled back out of the blue, striking a rock and hitting it hard. Pain shot through her head and reverberated through her, and, once again, she put up a pitiful struggle to get to the top, only to stop yet again. The pain was unbearable now; her lungs were on fire and her head pounded continuously. When her sight narrowed and all blacked out, the young student was glad- there came an end.
Was she dead? No. Would she die? Likely. All it had been was a mistake.

Well. That seemed to have done it. Animatedpaw felt herself being dragged out of the water, though by whom, she could not tell. Her thick fur was plastered to her frame, and there she laid, until some effort was made to bring her back into the realm of the living. Feeling pressure put on her stomach, she gave a meager bout of coughs, letting out a few spurts of water. The fire in her chest dulled, but her head remained entirely pained. Slowly blinking her eyes open, what she saw was limited, and the only thing she could make out other than blurs and colors was a single raven, perched on a tree high above. Thinking it to be Masquerade, she let out a very soft, weak bark, before trying to focus in on the gathered shapes above. None of them made any sense; there was a pink and white blur, a red one, and another she just couldn't figure out, regardless of her effort.

Animatedpaw beamed in pride, glad she'd been noticed. On those final words, she got to her paws, taking up her belongings and padding away in a museless post.

Eagerness growing by the second, she gave the dragon a gracious nod, before hopping wholeheartedly on to its back. This was to be very exciting, she thought. Thinking of flight had always been entertaining, and now she had an actual chance to fulfill those, with the help of a friend. Grinning broadly, she steadied herself on Hyacinthia's back, prepared to begin once the others who wished to fly had climbed on.

((she just has a fairly bad concussion, and yes, of course!))

Hearing voices speak above her, Animatedpaw let out a soft groan, head locked in a continual ache. She recognized Hyacinthia, Sharkbait, and Mixtape, but the second and fourth had been a complete mystery to her. Then again, she was nowhere near her right mind, so that didn't prove much. Her lungs and throat burned from the water as well, but that seemed to be nothing compared to the pain in her head.

Animatedpaw's gaze had been fixed on the ground, trying to avoid the vicious sunlight and sound, when her keen ears picked up Hyacinthia's voice from across the camp. Blinking a few times, she slowly got up, making her way over to the feline with a yawn and cringe. Listening to the explanation with a lowered head, she looked upwards upon her ending statement, though her expression was nonchalant and she appeared a bit tired. "That sounds nice," she commented after a moment, having taken that time to sort through her thoughts. Taking another minute or so to think of a wish, she got back up, picking up a feather, some ink, a slip of paper, and a short bit of light blue ribbon. The canine took up the quill in her mouth, beginning to scrawl out something in messy writing on the paper. I wish that everyone in SunClan could always be happy. Pleased with this, Animatedpaw folded it up, straightened herself out, and trotted over to the tree. She slowly tied the paper to the tree with her ribbon, then stepped away, assuming herself to be happy with this work. That was that.

((this is a really cute idea!! i really like it!!! also this is post-injury i guess ec h))

"That's... pretty," Animatedpaw commented after a moment, having struggled to produce a word for the gorgeous spectacle. Taking a seat at the back of the group as to avoid talking to anyone else, she gazed at the fireflies for a long while, watching their rhythmic movements with clear awe and fascination. It was stunning to watch, and certainly uplifting to the young canine, for some odd reason.
