He'd missed what Tad had said, but he was sure that the other tom often stuttered and Squire most certainly didn't want to ask him to repeat. Imagine if he still didn't understand him!


    Still, this little creation - whatever it was called - must have been difficult to actually make. As such, the deaf tom respected its creator's dedication and intelligence, however much he didn't respect his speech patterns, as awful as that sounded.

    [fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px solid white; width: 450px; text-align: justify; text-transform: lowercase; height: auto; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 130%; margin-top: -8px][hr]Squire, although aware of some sort of tension between Darky and Spidersilk, had no idea what it was actually about, wrongly assuming it was some sort of she-cat feud that was bound to happen from time to time. After all, toms had to strut around like they had sticks up their bums for some reason, so why couldn't she-cat show the same sort of embarrassing social faults?


    If Squire had known that the disagreement between the two femmes was actually the fault of Spidersilk trying to convince Darky to end her pregnancy ( which his roleplayer only knew of because #stalker ) then the deaf tom wouldn't have been as well mannered as he was towards the former. Or maybe he would have. He wasn't sure, but he wouldn't have appreciated Spidersilk's efforts, being that he was incredibly fond of both his sister and her kits - Overkit being by far his favourite, although he wasn't about to make that little nugget of information public.


    So it happened that today was the day that Squire finally got to see his littermate one on one since his return, with her glancing about her as if expecting something to happen. "Making sure no enemy warriors sneak in, Darky?" He joked cheerfully, limping over to the dark femme.


    Oh, how he cringed when he remembered his fall. Total idiot.


    "Or are you watching out for you kits?" The counter was a little more probable, being that Overkit certainly was one apt to go wandering. PErhaps the kits were playing hide and seek; he wasn't sure, but he remembered the days when he, Darky and Mango had been kits. He thought that perhaps their antics might have taken a few months off Blaze's life, what with all the worrying she must have done.

    [fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px solid white; width: 450px; text-align: justify; text-transform: lowercase; height: auto; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 130%; margin-top: -8px][hr]Squire was a little aghast that his new friend didn't know what StarClan was, but he thought that perhaps it had something to do with her lack of a memory. "StarClan," he enlightened enthusiastically, "are our warrior ancestors. They look down on us and guide us in everything we do, even sending prophecies and their own warriors down when the times call for it." He gestured upwards with his nose, pointing to the sky where stars would be at night. "You can see each soul in silverpelt at night. Xenia, the members of StarClan are our family, no matter which group they came from before their deaths. Nothing that they ever do is in vain."


    At the tasmanian devil's next question, Squire was had to pause for a moment as he truly considered what he was here for. Finally, he found his answer and sent it, and undercurrent of excitement running through it. "For a long time, I didn't know why I was here. I couldn't hear anything, I was clumsy. How is a cat supposed to serve his Clan like that? But then Darky switched bodies with me and, although it was only for a brief moment, I heard everything. I felt such joy at that and I knew why I was here. Or, at least, I knew why I wanted to be here. I want to help people feel that strong surge of joy that I felt when I heard the world or, if I'm unable to do that, to make them as happy as I can."


    He beamed at her. "That's why I'm here, Xenia."

After all, StormClan was favourable with new joiners because of its friendly environment and there had been a few little ones born into the Clan.


    Thus, the deaf tom felt it was necessary for a mass meet and greet.


    "Meet and greet!" he aimed to send to each and every one of his Clanmates, feeling a bit of a headache spring up from the effort. Gosh, how many members did StormClan have? His brain was sore! "I was hoping we could introduce ourselves; say our names and a little bit of insider knowledge, perhaps!"


    The message successfully sent, the ivory male would shift himself into a more comfortable position. After all, his leg was still broken, no matter how much he wished it wasn't. Maybe he'd joke about that when he introduced himself to any unknown ( and the known ) Clanmates.

Instead, Squire simply slid forwards on the ground with his legs spayed as if he were bambi on ice. "Don't worry, be happy!"

It sounds fun!" He responded quickly, keeping his gaze fixed on the oriental's face for the most part. However, when he realised that she was asking questions, he allowed his eyes to roam around the room, carefully picking out what his Clanmates were saying - or most of it, anyway. All the same, Squire decided that he wasn't going to speak much, afraid that he'd not spot anyone else who was already speaking.


    He drew closer to a piece of paper not taken by anyone else, noticing Overkit as he did so. "Overkit," he inquired, "would you like to sit by me?" She didn't seem to be by any paper right now and there was a spare piece right next to him.

He did remember, but his memory blurred any interaction they may have had in that way common with long ago occurrences. "Meadowpaw!" he greeted, flinging his tail up in an exuberant greeting. "It's been so long; how are you?"


    Squire turned to Oilspill next, including the tom in his welcome. Oilspill! I'm Squire, but I don't know if you know that or not yet. We've never had a proper greeting, have we?" Observing his Clanmate's fidgety mannerisms, he'd ask another question. "Are you all right?"

    I haven't dropped him or anything, and I will get to the threads in my unreplied folder! I'm just really slammed right now because I have the first of my AS Level exams coming up in just over a month so I have to revise and complete the masses of homework that's been set by unrelenting teachers. These exams are kinda (very) important and could determine whether I'll be accepted into any universities I may apply to next year, so I don't want a bunch of U- and E-grades.


    But Squire's still important so I'll keep him going as often as I can. Sorry!

    "For what?" Squire questioned, gaze clouded with a deep sort of confusion that only comes about one when they are lost in long ago thoughts and memories. As far as he knew, he had done nothing to urge Xenia to thank him. Perhaps his own purpose had become such a large part of him now that he didn't recognise so much what some of his deeds did for others anymore.


    Or he was just feeling especially sleepy in this warm afternoon sun.


    But he'd shaken that gentle pull towards sleep off of him in a moment, aware that he was in fact having a conversation with his new friend Xenia, of whom he was certainly quite fond of already. "Was there anything that you wanted to ask me, Xenia?" He chuckled self-consciously, the sound odd thick to anyone listening. "I don't think you came over here to ask about my leg, as side-tracked as we got."


    Unless, of course, they'd covered whatever it was the marsupial had wanted to know when they'd become so densely lost in this conversation.

He was drawn by the growing crowd - of which included his mother and sister - who seemed to be... agitated, to say the least.


    Hobbling over, the deaf tom brushed in front of Xenia, hopefully knocking her snotty paw back, despite her disgusting it might leave his own spotless fur. "Don't do that," he cautioned his friend gently, although an undercurrent of tension might be detected in his message. "You could spread your illness."


    He, like his mother, chose not to speak to Overkit for fear of making her feel overwhelmed, but he did offer the child a tight smile, one that had been intended as reassuring.

To someone closer, possibly someone who had seen this type of dreaming before, these actions were a tell-tale sign of some sort of nightmare. Except that, this time, Squire had left his mind open, allowing his telepathy to reach out and wrap anyone unlucky enough in the thick tendrils of his unwelcome dream.


    He shuffled forwards, heart in his throat, paws bumping against cold, hard ground. He was drawn forwards almost unwillingly, and Squire knew that whatever he would find in this silent, dark world would not be welcome. He dreaded nearing the end of this nightmare, knowing that it was something to do with the heavy scent of blood that overwhelmed his only working sense - his ability to scent.


    As always, Squire knew he was not himself now, that he was whatever had become before him. He knew that this individual was more unfortunate than himself, being both deaf and blind as opposed to Squire's mere deafness. Worse still, when the alabaster tom tried to reach out with his telepathy, he felt nothing but his own terror. There was no telepathy in this body, so like his own when it had been at this tender age of four moons, and he felt isolated.


    His reached forwards again with a tentative paw, pressing into a sticky, liquid-like substance. In the back of his mind, Squire knew that it was blood - that he had stepped in some poor soul's spilt blood, already cooling in the afternoon breeze - but another mind pushed against his own, quiet and wondering and ever so confused.


    "What's this? Aes Sedai?" His fur raised along his spine as his blood chilled to match the temperature of that on his paw, still in the congealing mess. "I'm scared," whined the child that had pushed itself to the forefront of Squire's mind, and it called for Aes Sedai again, knowing that this odd creature would protect it.


    Almost in the next heartbeat, Aes would emerge from the darkness of the world, touching its own mind to Merle's. Squire felt a flood of relief at the familiar touch of telepathy, but this feeling was drowned out by the sudden intoxicating joy of the deaf-blind child standing in the blood as Squire dreamed.


    He felt his paw retract from the blood, and it was then that Squire realised it was not fear that was the reason he had been unable to decide where to place his paws - it was the child Merle whose own mind seemed linked with his own.


    "Gone where?" The thought exploded from his own mind powerfully, drawn out of the depths by the other animal's powerful telepathy.


    So startled was Squire by the strength of Merle's curiosity that he found himself gasping for breath and peeling back his eyelids to glance about the vibrant - although silent - world around him. Squire's release from the dream would in turn release anyone else trapped and he remained ignorant of the strength of his telepathy.

He was sure she wasn't a massive fan of large crowds, yet here she was: the centre of attention in a large crowd. "How long have you been coughing, Overkit?" Squire inquired, moving forwards so that he sat next to her with his tail tucked around her. HE hadn't been around his Clanmates much the past week - his niece included - and now he came back to the little femme ill.


    Squire felt absolutely awful.

The events that had taken place in his mind weren't fading as they had before. No - they were on the very forefront of his mind, fresh and vaguely familiar to the tom, although he wouldn't talk about what had happened, unless directly asked on the issue.


    Instead, the ivory male dipped his head and began to rasp his tongue first on the top of Overkit's head, then slowly expanding along her silvery sides and back. Having never really groomed the young femme before, Squire hoped that he wasn't making her feel uncomfortable, but was instead expressing his gratitude for her presence and his guilt for the lack of his own in the past few days.

Not even a breeze seemed to stir the camp, but one alabaster tom was restless. This restlessness was not due to the occasional coughs and splutters from sick Clanmates, nor from an uneasy howling from an unknown coyote - likely homeless and passing through the territory. No, this particular tom couldn't hear any of this, but he could feel an odd sort of tremor running through his injured leg.


    The splint had been taken off, the bandages removed and re-wrapped thicker and tighter than ever. Squire's leg was healing quickly and the lack of movement from the break was coming to a head in a sort of giddy excitement, the sort he used to feel as a kit.


    Speaking of kits...


    Squire's blue gaze strayed towards the nursery, and it was then that he resolutely pushed himself to his paws and limped towards the structure, as careful as can be. He, Darky and Mango had gotten up to an awful lot of mischief at Overkit and her siblings' age and he supposed it wouldn't harm the children if he took anyone out for a midnight stroll.


    So that was how the ivory tom found himself easing himself into the milk-scented nursery, keen gaze scanning for any of his nieces or nephews - but specifically Overkit - for any sign of wakefulness.
