Is it my line or yours? [OPEN]

Ivyheart headed out for another long day of hunting. Well hunting not just for prey but for the leader as well. She still hadn't talked to Tigerfang yet about how he was doing because along with training her one apprentice Goldenpaw she was worried about feeding the clan as well. The tabby she-cat felt the need to go out and hunt more that one of her two sisters was in the nursery with several lovely kits. Because of this Ivyheart made sure to go out and catch anything her green gaze landed on. The only problem is that with all the snow and frost the mountain of Talonclan became quite a bit harder to travel on. She climbed her way up the hill before stopping and tasting the air. Her breath swirled around her face as her eyes scanned the barren white cliff side for anything. She just sighed before then heading down the mountain slowly. Thinking that the prey probably went down the mountain where it was warmer and there was a bit more shelter. 

As the tabby was making her way down of course she was thinking about other things that were important at the moment than where she was actually stepping. Misplacing her front paw she slipped her weight falling forward. Fox Dung! She screamed in her mind as her weight made he slide down the hill faster than she ever wanted to go in the first place. Leaned back pulling her head up trying to get her weight towards her hind legs and with doing so, well her hind legs slip forward and she was sliding the rest of the way down on her hind quarters. She let out a gasp as she slid down the hill. Finally when getting to the bottom came to as stop and she just blinked her green eyes with surprise. Her heart was pounding in her ears and glanced back up to where she came from. That was the last thing that Ivyheart was not expecting to happen. "That could have been a lot worse." She said out loud.

A laugh came from above. Deadpaw leered down upon Ivyheart, his ears twitching in amusement. "Hey there," he chuckled. "Nice tumble. Need some help?" Bouncing down the hill, he peered at her. "More importantly, are you okay?"

He had to admit, that had just made his day. He'd been out on a walk, preferably alone, and just wanted to get out of all the tension, stress, and work for just a little while. Then, he saw Ivyheart fall.

Ivyheart was looking up and then a cat's head appeared from above. She recognized the cat quickly and had a name to a face. "Deadpaw." She said to herself. She just watched as he climbed down landing and coming up to her. She just blinked her eyes at the apprentice and grumbled slightly. The last cat she wanted to see her fall was a apprentice. but what had happened, happened and the tabby warrior couldn't do anything about it. She just snapped slightly at his first questions, "No. Not that I'm at the bottom of the mountain. Thank you." Then she wrinkled her nose slightly and said, "I'm fine though thanks for asking."

[Deleted]

"Okay," said Deadpaw, but stood to aid anyway. Walking down, he half-slid, half ambled, and landed next to the she-warrior. "Whatcha up to?" he asked simply. "Out for a walk, or just fooling around? If it's okay, I'll join you- I don't have anything to do, and we could have a two-cat patrol."

The tabby warrior shook her head at the apprentice. She just said with a flick of her tail, "I'm hunting." Then she just turned and started padding away. She needed to find something anything for their clan. Ivyheart's gaze glanced around the snow covered land and she just growled slightly. She personally hated snow it made everything that much more challenging. She started padding off in a direction calling over her should, "If you want to come get your paws moving!"

[Deleted]

"Jeez," muttered Deadpaw under his breath, shaking his head. He might as well do something productive. He scrambled to his paws and ran to catch up with Ivyheart. "So, uh, what's up?" he tried asking, slipping just slightly on the snow. His dead tail drooped behind him, and he was actually making an effort lifting it, trying not to drag it on the ground like a limp, angled snake.

Ivyheart heard the comment from the tom and she just rolled her eyes. She was harsh but she really didn't care. She just kept padding forward, she could hear Deadpaw's tail dragging on the snow and she just looked back at him and was about to snap about his tail but then she remembered that he was born that way. So she just shut her mouth and continued forward. She just easily said, "Nothing really just doing my warrior duties." Then she looked at him with her green gaze and asked, "How's your training going? Bluethorn is you mentor correct?"

[Deleted]

"Uhm, yes," Deadpaw said. "She's been training me... well enough. I practice more on my own. Well, um, if I may ask, how was apprenticeship for you? Can you give me any advice?" he asked. It wasn't that hard, training, but it was the apprentice duties outside of learning that piled upon him; most of the other apprentices ditched as soon as they'd changed one elder's moss nest, and he was left to clean the rest, something he hated.

Ivyheart just turned and looked at the apprentice. Bluethorn was a new mentor the poor guy getting two apprentices on the first time. but Ivyheart had talked to the charming blue gray tom once and he seemed like a nice tom. Unlike her, she was harsh and well honest. She just turned back around scanning the area, she laughed slightly at his question. Not because it was funny it was actually a good question it was just that her mentor and she got along quite well and well of course her siblings and herself were crazy as ever. She just replied to the young tom, "My mentor and I got along quite well. but if I had any advice for you it would be to trust your mentor." She thought about her a Mudpaw and how there was no trust. "If there isn't trust with your mentor then its not good for you and your mentor either."
