The Golden Retriever sat outside the entrance of Ivylee's personal quarters having just cleared his throat and requested an audience with his distant superior, intelligent brown eyes surveying the glowworms lining the cavern passageway's walls and ceiling. They cast him in an unflattering light, morphing the handsome color of his coat into an odd-yellow green and casting somber shadows over his youthful features. If he was being honest, he was slightly nervous about this appointment, knowing full well that he was here to ask an unorthodox question and that there was a not-inconsiderable chance the Skipper would turn him down. But Roosevelt tried to live by the principle that worrying unduly would solve nothing, and so spent the long silent moments attempting to quiet the writhing anxiety in his stomach, feathered tail laid neatly over his large forepaws, shoulders held at attention.

"Hello, Skipper." Roosevelt stood up straight as the Samoyed's head appeared from the depths of her den, and padded in with confidence in his soft steps. He turned around and faced her, remaining on his feet out of a self-created sense of courtesy. "Thank you for agreeing to speak with me. I know we've never met, so: my name is Roosevelt Ives. I am here to request something highly unusual - I would like to request that I be granted the status of a warrior before reaching twelve months old and having undergone no formalized education. I wish to give my heart and soul to this Clan, and I feel I can best do that as a warrior." he glanced down at his feet - currently out of scale with the rest of his body, indicating how much further he still had to go before he reached his full size - and took in a breath. "I understand the reasons for the age limit, but I am still requesting that this be waived in my case. I am willing to partake in your assessments should you wish." he cleared his throat and added, "If you refuse this request then I ask that you do not think less of me, and please let me know where I should go or who I should contact to receive a mentor."

Roosevelt did not have any knowledge of what had transpired between the RiverClanners and their former medic; all he heard as he grew nearer was the steady hum of conversation, the occasional peaks as the argument continued. He allowed their words to flow over them and drew strength and comfort from the simple fact of their presence and their raised emotions, deciding not to get involved and veering instead towards the waterline. It was only when he saw Arcanepaw collapse and saw a tree tear itself from the earth that he wheeled around and sprinted to stand directly beside Ivylee. He paused for a beat, drawing upon his reserves of energy, and hurtled forward, attempting to careen into Hope's grounded side with his super strength behind him. He was careful to aim not for Ivylee but for the horse, trying to break ribs or snap her spine.

Faith was an area of life Roosevelt had never explored; he was young, and despite the fact that he was quite capable for his age he was simply not emotionally mature enough to grasp or investigate the concept. The underage warrior focused his stinging eyes upon Tephrael and the other three RiverClanners, having been resting underwater, savoring the way the newly risen sun lit up the water. He rose and stood dripping in the squishy sand along the very edge of the lapping tide, his gills flaring. The pup coughed violently a few times and then shook in true canine fashion, ears flapping. Then he trotted forward, gold coat agleam in the fresh light. "Perhaps, for him, it will be different." said the retriever, addressing Escaflowne. He shrugged his thin shoulders. "Hard to say, really."

Roosevelt was not someone who would often be seen adopting Alex's casual, content position among the tree roots. He did relax, though only when absolutely exhausted, as he believed that he best way to make yourself stronger was to push yourself as hard as you could. However, whenever he took time off he slept in the privacy of his own den. The prospect of simply hanging out in a public space was befuddling to the Golden Retriever. Perhaps it was his youth, but he was not great at appreciating downtime purely for its own sake. Now it was meal-time, and as he plucked a fish off the pile he tried to think of reasons why Alexander might have made himself cozy upon the tree roots. Perhaps he was waiting for something, or someone? The warrior settled down and began to eat, chewing slowly, unable to keep his eyes off of the fox.

Totally interested in having Roosevelt host events!
I can also make accolades so I could turn these into badge events if desired ^^IC ideas:
- Underwater scavenger hunt. Since he has gills he can set out the items in the shallow areas and make sure no one drowns.- Put on a play! It could teach RiverClan's morals; StarClan, the warrior code, merciful fighting, etc. This could go on for a while, starting with casting then rehearsing then the big performance. Allies could be invited to the final show. Roosevelt could be the really stern director xD
- Power tournament! Challenge RiverClanners with powers to do a thing, using whatever powers they choose. Whoever does it best (fastest, most creatively, etc) moves on to the next round, til it's just the two finalists. The winner gets a badge & maybe a title?? Winners of each round chosen by a panel of impartial IC judges
OOC games/events I would love to host:
- Play 'who's your character in THIS situation?'. Basically, you give a situation and everyone describes who their character would be in that situation. Example:
Situation - a local newspaper.
Who is your character? - Roosevelt would be a blonde intern with way too much time on his hands who spends his time nagging his bosses and building little model boats.
Laugh, rinse, & repeat with a new scenario!- Partner RPers up and then have an AU thread in which everyone plays their partner's character based on their knowledge of their partner's character! E.g. I play Ivylee, you play Roosevelt.
I have more ideas, just let me know if you want them x3
