{Rain} falls on {Holly} bush (tagged)

[Vinepool]

Rainleaf was laying in his nest of moss. He had the moss covering his body due to the cold winds that kept hitting him. He closed his eyes hoping sleep would claim him. He kept his eyes closed and waited for a couple of minutes. Sleep had not come, he decided he might as well get up and go do something. He shook the moss off his back and them he sat up. He blinked slowly and then looked down at his pelt. He licked it clean and got all the moss out of it. He felt a chilly wind hit his back. He grumbled unhappy about the new cold weather. He stood up and shook himself waking him up. He glanced at the exit of the den. He started to pad out of the den and he made sure not to step on any of the other sleeping warriors. He entered the cold clearing.

Rainleaf shivered as he entered the cold clearing. He looked up at the sky to see dark clouds and he looked for the sun. All he could find was the dim rays of sunshine making a effort to break through the clouds. He heard his stomach growl. He remembered he hadn't eaten since sun-high of yesterday. He padded over to fresh-kill pile. It was small and the prey that was in it was boney and barely had any meat. He looked through the pile hoping to find a decent piece of prey. He spotted near the bottom of the pile was a decent looking thrush. He smiled and picked up the thrush. He looked around for a place to sit.

Rainleaf noticed a semi-sunny spot near the center of the clearing. He padded toward it and then once he reached it he sat down. He raped his tail around himself trying to keep it warm. He dropped his prey in front of him and the took a bite. He tasted stringy and and meatless. He swallowed the bite and sighed knowing this was the best the prey was gonna be. He looked around the clearing hoping to find a cat that was willing to ignore the cold and have conversation with him. He took another bite of prey and the waited for a cat to come.

OOC: Sorry about the big post

OOC;; No need to be sorry

IC;; What an annoyance leafbare was. Cinderholly saw little use in it, all it did was take away their prey and cause general discomfort and tension between the clans. Shivering in the cold, the short furred female felt particularly targeted by the cruel winter, and rarely left the camp. However, she was getting bored of the confined space her den offered. She needed something new. Something interesting. Muttering complaints about the chilling weather under her breath, she slowly, achingly got up from her nest. Her limbs with frozen with cold, and creaked in protest and her sudden movement. Growling in frustration, she stretched deeply, sighing in pleasure as she felt her joints being loosened.

Emerging from the den, it was obvious she wasn't in the best of moods. but, she was determined. Seeing as boredom had gotten the best of her, Cinderholly reluctantly surveyed the area for someone to potentially socialize with. She didn't mind talking to others, though she didn't easily trust anyone, she came off as nice and was rather pleasant for conversation. Blinking her eyes, she surreptitiously observed the familiar figure, sitting in a sunny spot near the middle of the clearing near the fresh kill pile. That would definitely be pleasant, a bite to eat and a sunny place to sit.

Who was she kidding. It was freezing. but, knowing herself, Cinderholly was probably overreacting. She needn't make such a big deal over something so insignificant. After a half second of hesitation, Cinder picked up her paws and made her way over to the area. Picking her way daintily through the snow, her willowy figure weaved this way and that. Approaching male, who's name, if she remembered correctly, was rainleaf, she sat down a polite distance away, yet still close enough to have a comfortable conversation. Projecting the facade of ease, she dipped her head in greeting. "Fake it till you make it." The familiar phrase seemed very appropriate in this situation. Being rude of course, wasn't an option.

"Hello, mind if I join you?"
