{$title} feral child experiencing some food aggression
Consumed by the darkness they bore
She will never wake up anymore

// Takes place shortly after Des's introduction into SkyClan.

Des sat pressed into the shelter of a bush, hunched over a sparrow like it might vanish if she blinked. Thin shoulders jut up, head hunched low, and ears flat as she tore into it with fast rough bites. She chewed and gasped between mouthfuls. Around her, a mess of feathers, bits of bloody down sticking to her muzzle.

The nursery was bustling with movement, laughter, and speech—harmless noise to some. But to Des every sound was sharp and jostling. Too much. Too loud. She twitched with each overwhelming sound but did not tear away from the prey beneath her claws. Morsels slid down her throat, sometimes painfully, but she knew to eat quickly. If not, then something bigger would take it. Rip it away from her before she could satiate the gnawing pain in her stomach.

The sound of scuffling near drew a low growl from the kit. Her haunches tensed, but she made no effort to move, only tried scarf the prey down quicker.

"Relax," Stormcrow says, voice neither soft nor hard. Neutral, as she usually is. Observant. "You'll make yourself sick eating like that."

She sets her own prey down, careless, knowing it is safe now that she's picked it from the pile. Skyclanners could be tough, sure, but they were at least above stealing food from starving kits. She cannot understand Des' fear, having not known the hunger she has– even on the journey, there was food enough for all of them, at least most days. And nobody stole. They shared. But perhaps that was a strange concept to someone who's grown up outside of the clans.

Being earnest and straightforward seems to be the way to make this particular kit listen, so she keeps her usual tone and manner of speaking.

"I know you don't know us very well yet and have little reason to trust us," Stormcrow begins, "but we don't make it a habit to steal food from kits here. In fact it is frowned upon to take food from anyone, kit or warrior." A beat. She looks at Des again. "And it would be a waste of food if you threw it all up after scarfing it down like that."
