★ ★ ★ Brambledawn had been sitting by Featherfoot, listening to the leaders with a gaze that almost made it look like she was bored. Amberstar was the first to go. Not that she cared, she already knew everything that the molly was going to say. Shaking out her pelt, she listened as the Gorestar started speaking. The molly's ears perked at the mention of a new deputy, glancing in the direction of Icehop. The tom was certainly handsome, she'd give him that. However, she hadn't been expecting to lock eyes with him. She slowly closed her eyes for a moment, before looking back up at the leaders. She didn't see much point in talking to the tom. Sure, he was attractive, but he was in Shadowclan. If they ever fought, she'd have to ignore any personal relations with him. Brambledawn let out a small groan, listening to Flystar accuse Riverclan of something. She had tuned out for a moment. Surely there was a better place to do this?

"Speech."

★ ★ ★Mudstar sat on the rock, listening silently to the rest of the leaders. He didn't really care what happened in any of the other clans, unless it was something drastic, like a drought or something. He shifted on the rock, wrapping his tail around himself neatly. Once Flystar started speaking, the fur on his back starting to rise, especially when Flystar started accusing Riverclan of killing Heathersnout. With a hiss, the leader stood up,"My warriors would never kill a cat without a proper reason! Besides, none of us ever go near your mouse-dung of a territory!" His snapped, lashing his tail angrily at the

"Speech."

(( That's completely fine!

Also, your fancy has a scroll bar that makes it a little hard to read at the edges. If you add in "overflow:hidden" it should get rid of that! ))

★ ★ ★ Brambledawn sighed, watching the drama flare up. Mudstar always was defensive about his clan. The molly licked her paw, drawing it over her ear. Giving her pelt a shake, she laid down. This would probably take awhile. Turning to Feathermoon, she opened her mouth to speak, before realizing that the new deputy had walked over.

"Hello, Icehop. Congratulations on being promoted to deputy," The white molly smiled, flicking her tail. "I've been quite well, actually. Thank you for asking. What about you?" Feathermoon tilted her head as she waited for a response. She shot a glance in the direction of where the leaders had gone,"It would have been nice to go a gathering without any drama. Shame that it didn't happen," Feathermoon sighed, glancing over at Brambledawn,"Don't you agree, Brambledawn?"

Said molly perked her ears, having tuned out for a moment,"Hm? Oh, yeah!" She gave a small nod.

"Speech." / "Feathermoon speech"

★ ★ ★ Mudstar stalked after Amberstar, glaring at Flystar as he padded behind the trees. The leader listened to Flystar silently, but ended up cutting him off with another hiss,"You seem to forget how Heathersnout loves to pick fights! I think it would be safe to say that she picked a fight with a Riverclan cat on our territory and ultimately ended up loosing!" Digging his claws into the ground, the leader stood tall. Clearly, unless there was more valid evidence, he wasn't going to back down. He always hated Flystar. It seemed like the Windclan leader always had it for Riverclan. Every turn, it seemed Flystar was trying to accuse his clan of things. In all honesty, while Mudstarwasn't going to admit it, Flystar probably wasn't always looking for something to blame Riverclan, but it sure was the only thing Mudstarremembered.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Mudstar ducked his head when Flystar raised his claws against him. While he didn't dodge it, he was sure it would have been much worse had he not dodged. Unsheathing his claws, the tom prepared to fight back. However, Gorestars voice caused him to stop in his tracks. Knowing that Gorestar was not only older, but stronger than him, he backed off. Casting one last glare at Flystar, the leader turned and started walking back towards the gathering,"Tch. Whatever. We should get back to the gathering." It was clear in his voice that he was still quite angry. He believed he had every right to be. No cat had reported to him about any scuffling with Windclan, nor had he seen any cats in the medicine den with injuries indicating that another cat did it.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Brambledawn smiled back at the deputy, slowly rising into a sitting position,"I'm Brambledawn. I would ask for your name, but considering the fact that you're now a deputy I kinda already know." The she gave a small laugh, although she wasn't sure what she was laughing at. The amber-eyed molly did find an attraction towards him and she couldn't ignore the fact that he was rather charming, but she wasn't sure if she wanted to get to know him. Nothing on his part, she just... hadn't really ever felt this way? It was weird for her, to say the least. She couldn't say that she ever felt this attracted to any other cat she met and the thought made her a little cautious to say the least.

"Speech."

(( On mobile, so sorry if the post isn't as long as the other ones. I tried to keep it as close to normal as I could. ))

★ ★ ★ Mudstar narrowed his eyes, not failing to notice the limp,"It's nothing. Why are you limping?" The tom let out a sigh, staring at his medicine cat. She was such a pretty molly with a great personality to add onto that. Occasionally, he would end up wondering how things would be different between her and him had she not chosen to become a medicine cat. The tom flicked his tail, ushering any and all thoughts of the sort out of his mind. This most certainly isn't the time to think about that, after all. Instead, the tom started thinking of ways to punish whichever cat had done this. She was a medicine cat, after all.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Brambledawn glanced at her paws for a moment,"Why, thank you!." The warrior shifted her paws. Was she nervous? Why did it feel like she was nervous? Gulping, she glanced around the clearing. Clearly, it was merely because he was a deputy from another clan. That was the only reason she could think of for it. Her attention snapped back to Icehop, staring in the direction of the leaders as she listened,"I'm not surprised. He and Mudstar never got along. Plus, Flystar seems to always be looking for drama," The molly watched as Mudstar appeared, tilting her head as she noticed his nose bleeding. She figured that it was safe to assume that Flystar's claws dealt the blow.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Mudstar relaxed a bit once she told him her paw got stuck, believing the medicine cat. He gave a small nod in response to her mentioning treating his wound. "Gracklestar certainly could have chosen a better deputy," He grumbled, glancing in the direction of the great rock with a frown,"I should probably wrap the gathering up. I'm sure the rest of the clans want to leave," Flicking his tail, he started heading back to the rock. Hopping onto the rock without a second thought, he positioned himself to where he was looking out on all the cats below. Not waiting for cats to realize he was there or even listen as he began to speak, the tom opened his mouth,"Riverclan is doing well. We have a few more apprentices, Bearpaw, Buzzardpaw, Ferrettpaw, and Cypress paw. I have heard reports of rogue scents on our territory as well. Now, if any cat doesn't have anything to say, I think this gathering might as well be over!" Not giving any time for a cat to object, Mudstar hopped off the rock, padding over to Meadowstream.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Brambledawn nodded her head in agreement,"True. Flystar should have handled it much better. He risked Starclan covering the moon."

"Flystar just needs to manage his emotions better. Obviously, it was him who scratched Mudstar. I wouldn't be surprised if Windclan is eventually the reason for a major battle," Feathermoon added, flattening her ears with a frown. When Mudstar hopped onto the great rock and started speaking, both Feathermoon and Brambledawn quieting down quickly and listening. Neither of them had expected the gathering to really continue, so they didn't really expect that any cat would object. Feathermoon sighed, glancing at Brambledawn,"I don't think we'll be here much longer. I'm sure Amberstar doesn't want to stay around after this all happened.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Mudstar lead the way back to camp, chatting with his deputy as he walked. He could sense that the entire clan was just as annoyed as he was about the accusations. None of them would have a reason to kill Heathersnout, unless she was causing trouble. Once in camp, Mudstar continued to talk to Ashspeck. Eventually, the deputy went off to bed. The leader almost went to bed himself, until he remembered his scratch. The slight sting had vanished a long time ago, after all. Smirking, the tom snuck up behind her. "Boo!" He snickered, making sure not to be too loud. He didn't want to disturb the clan, after all.

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Bramble smiled, watching him walk off. She stood up, seeing that the rest of her clan was leaving. She paused, waiting for Feathermoon to get up before following after the clan. The molly stared at her paws as she walked, wondering what attracted her to the tom so much. It was honestly starting to bother her. The warrior decided that she should get some sleep as soon as she could. Maybe she just didn't get enough sleep, and that was why Icehop was refusing to leave her mind.

((That's fine!))

"Speech."

★ ★ ★ Mudstar chuckled, smirking at her response,"Sorry, sorry. I couldn't help myself!" The tom sat down, waiting patiently for Meadowstream to treat his wound. He remained silent, listening to her as he was questioned about his beliefs on the allegations from Flystar. Heaving a sigh, Mudstar looked up at the sky,"I'm not sure. His only 'evidence' is the fact that there was the fur of a Riverclan cat on Heathersnout, but at the same time I don't recall seeing any cat here having injuries indicating that they got in a fight with a cat and no cat has admitted to fighting with Heathersnout." Flattening his ears, Mudstar found himself wondering if it could have been one of the rouges. Both Riverclan and Thunderclan had scented them on their territory, and it wouldn't take them long to get to Windclan. Maybe they just mistaked the scent?

(( Sorry for the wait! I got side-tracked! Not quite sure what to do for Bramble other than having her thinking and falling asleep, so I'll just skip out on her for now. Should her and Icehop meet along the border again? ))
