I WON'T SMILE, BUT I'LL SHOW YOU MY TEETH


The weather was slowly turning toward the better. Ghost had no idea what that would look like for Thunderclan when it finally came to fruition. Summers in the city were bound to look different than summers in the forest, and he couldn't even begin to imagine the level of green necessary to paint a mental picture. The melting snow was a good start, though. Thunderclans territory was no longer just snow and frost and ice, and it made it easier to think of it as something other than a frozen, dead woodland.

In another attempt at being social, he'd left an open invite with his clanmates to join him for some training that day over at snakerocks. It felt strange doing this with someone other than Thunderflash, but it was also one of the few languages Ghost knew how to confidently speak.

Even now, moons after joining the colony, he still struggled to connect with anyone other than the blue-eyed tom who'd helped care for him when he'd first arrived. It certainly wasn't in his nature to sit down for a 'hang out', but this? He could tolerate this.

Might even find a way to enjoy it.

"You lot like games, yeah?" he mused, recalling Thunder and Brightpetal and a few others he'd caught in camp messing with mossballs and such. " Well I've got one for you. We're gonna play a few rounds of The floor Is Fire."

He made his way toward the rockpile, hopping up onto one of the small boulders and turning to face the small group that had followed him out. It might be hard getting some of the more… free spirited ones to stick to a proper training regiment, but if he could disguise it as something they enjoyed then maybe Ghost could keep them involved for longer than a session or two.

"Rules are simple; last cat standing on the rockpile is the winner. The rest of us go hunting so they can take best kill."

Simple, but efficient.

"Now get your hides up here– the floor is fire, and your paws are burnin'." he called, leaping to another rock farther within the pile.




OOC- Welcome to a fun, casual little game of The Floor Is Lava WC addition! Stay on the rocks and be the last one standing! There's only two rules!

– You can only try and knock off one cat per turn (yes, you gang up on each other if you want to be evil >:D )
– When your cat is targeted, you must roll a dice in the discord to determine if they fall or not.

Dice Rolls
1 //You not only fall, but you sustain a minor bump or bruise for your troubles.

2-5 // You fall, and it's a little embarrassing how easily you go down

6-10 // You make a valiant effort, but in the end you just can't keep your balance

11-15 // It's clumsy,maybe even a little goofy, but you stay on!

16-19 // Now that's some talent! You dodge and weave like a pro, no falling for you!

20 // You're so on top of these rocks that you might as well be a rock– that's how sturdy and steady you are. The enemy can't even budge/touch you!

With the weather steadily getting more and more warm, and with home becoming a pool of various worries, Burningdawn had no reason to stay behind. Ghoststrike had presented him an opportunity; Snakerocks are not the easiest nor safest bits of the territory, but at least the day would not be boring.

Burningdawn's face morphs into something puzzled upon Ghoststrike's question. Games? Not really. He hadn't played games since moons... he thinks he probably did as a kit, because kits are always playing, but his memory fails him.
"Oh,"
he breathes,
"I haven't heard of this type of training before."
It is not meant in offense — his eyes do not narrow at his Clanmate nor does he scoff at the notion. It just catches him off-guard; training makes him think of practicing a silent pounce or dropping on the back of another cat. Jumping from rock to rock sounds a bit unorthodox, but it should tire muscles out when kept up for a while.

His belly yowls in response to the offered prize. He would feel too bad, watching the others scurry off to hunt for him when he is perfectly capable of catching his own food, but an empty stomach cares little for semantics. Burningdawn hops onto the nearest rock and tries to imagine the frost-kissed ground covered in hot, crackling fire. He is not interested in pushing others off... instead, he simply hops onto the next outcrop and then the next, hoping to get away from any commotion that might start soon.

Ghoststrike was a tom not very familiar outside of being a consistent contributor to ThunderClan. He was dependable, from what the apprentice observed, often seeing him on his paws and putting his efforts in working towards the Clans needs. He was a warrior Grizzlypaw found admirable, the kind he sought to be as he grew up.

Grizzlypaw trailed after the warriors as they approached a rock pile and carefully clambered atop a stone himself, balancing on it as he had with the set of antlers. "Heh, wooaah." His ankles wobble beneath the uneven terrain. Ghoststrike continued on with a promised prize of food and Grizzlypaw's maw dropped open in wanting surprise. The best of the bunch! What a chance! His eyes set on Burningdawn with a mischievous smirk right away, and snapped his teeth at the warriors tail to try and pull him off.

I COULD NEVER WALK AWAY


Sunpaw didn't need much extra prompting. Training in the form of a game, and the winner got the best prey? Try to stop him.

With a grin the ginger tabby bound over and scrambled onto one the rocks he'd deemed to look 'sturdy'. It felt strange standing on such rough, uneven ground, but he was already completely immersed in the task at hand. If Ghoststrikes intention had been to engage them, he'd certain succeeded with fire-furred apprentice. Social activities like this were some of his favorite, and it wasn't every day that the adults seemed keen on joining in on the games. This game was apparently different though, bridging the gap between old and young, play and work.

Amber eyes shone as he watched Grizzlypaw immediately go for Burningdawn, and while he was eager to try and shove someone off a rock himself-- maybe even tempted by Grizzlypaws turned back-- he was also extremely curious to see what happened. Would his denmate get lucky and manage to yank the warrior of? His claws gripped the stone beneath him in anticipation, waiting to see what the older cat did.
