Her paws landed lightly on the snow, the white substance crunching slightly under the weight. Jaggedbriar kept her head aloft, and her plumed tail also aloft in a similar manner. She was bordering on looking haughty or cocky, but she kept a friendly smile on her face, hoping to at least seem approachable.
Maybe it was the cold air buffeting her face, or the grey clouds covering the normally blue sky, but the day felt quiet. Unnaturally quiet. And that bothered the blue tabby. Though she preferred order to chaos, utter silence was strangling to her.
Heading for the dead willow she payed little attention to the path her paws were taking, having memorized the trails long ago. The cold usually didn't bother her this much, her fur normally created a barrier against it. but the wind pushed past her pelt, chilling her to her bones.
I should try and hunt out some prey...who am I kidding I can't hunt in new-leaf when prey practically sacrifices itself. she thought, annoyed at the fact that she had never caught onto the art of hunting. She would always dart out too fast, or too slow, or entirely miss the prey. If there's an award for lousiest hunter I would probably win it.
Passing by the heat pool Jaggedbriar slinked away from the frozen banks. Even if the water was shallow, and frozen over nonetheless, she had an ingrained fear of falling into it. It was an unfounded fear, but she just strongly disliked the feeling of water in her pelt.
Reaching the dead willow she began sharpening her claws against a root, arching her back, pleased with the feeling of tension it brought into her muscles. Shaking the flecks of ice covered bark from her paws she curled up at the base of the dead willow, fluffing her tail over her nose.
Closing her eyes she had no intention of sleeping, just to rest and wait for something to happen.
