Dreampaw . trans tom (he/him) . 9 moons . apprentice of ThunderClan . mentored by tba . short and small hazel-eyed tortie with mohawk-like head tuft TAGS! ₊˚✧ ゚. It was midday and Dreampaw crouched low on a warm stone in camp, his fiery hazel eyes fixed intently on a lone leaf trembling in the new-leaf-promising breeze. "Behold," he intoned with a voice deep and commanding, "the art of predation perfected! This is no mere slump but a stance ordained by the very stars…one that allows me to strike before my prey even dares to dream of danger." A few bemused glances drifted his way from nearby clanmates who were busy with their own tasks, though Dreampaw stubbornly ignored the suspicion he was merely amusing them.

As he tensed and held his breath in anticipation of launching himself at the unsuspecting leaf, Cricketpaw glided over with a playful flick of her tail. "Really, Dreampaw?" she said with a tone equally challenging as it was light, "Perhaps if you spent less time reciting and more time blending with the earth, you'd catch more than just your own paws. Stealth means vanishing into the shadows without a sound, you know."

Did he really just look like some silly kid spouting poetry to a leaf? Nah! Dreampaw's eyes flashed with both amusement and stubborn defiance as he lifted his chin slightly higher, projecting the fullest image of confidence he could muster, "The Dark Warrior does not simply hide—he commands the darkness to do his bidding! I summon the very shadows to cloak my approach and shroud my every movement, ensuring that when I strike even the wind itself stops in awe." He paused, a fierce-fanged grin tugging at his lips as he became absorbed in the moment and the thought of his own grandiosity. He briefly wondered if his words sounded suitably intimidating or merely like some kit's bedtime story but quickly brushed the thought away. After all, he told himself, it's all about delivery and mine is legendary.

Maybe if Thunderflash hadn't spend every hour of his day arguing with his blood-father, he'd be a bit more like Dreampaw. Maybe.

He's not too far away, having just returned from a midday hunting patrol with a plentiful bounty- considering the warming territory- and was taking a rest before heading back out again. Amusement plays on his face as he watches some of the apprentices tussle just after lunch, though this particular apprentice wasn't really tussling, more just... announcing his actions. He shoots a look at whichever warrior was beside him, a grin pulling at his lips, before he looks towards Dreampaw.

"I dunno kiddo," He starts, "Y' really think y' can jus'... ask th' shadows t' move fer you? Y'ken, they're older then ye'. Waaay older." Thunderflash puts the emphasis on that statement, settling into a laying position with both paws stretched out in front of him. Luckily, his shoulder was feeling better, and moving was nothing to blink at anymore. Lead warrioring was getting easier, too- though it was a funny thing, being one of the only ones without an apprentice. His schedule was far emptier then even Ghoststrike's was. His head tilts towards the leaders den, a brief thought crossing- What if that's on purpose?- before he's looking back at Dreampaw.

A rare sight indeed these days– Rowanpaw's nose isn't buried in herbs, she's outside, enjoying the sun like any other apprentice would be doing. She'd layed down with the other's, intending to mingle, but the only one she could really hear was Dreampaw. He goes on about some dark warrior or other, and Thunderflash chimes in from not far away. She stifles a laugh, stretching her paws out in front of her. It had been a while since she got to sunbathe.

"And I doubt you're going to catch much if you keep narrating the whole ordeal," Rowanpaw says lightly. This was mingling, right? She's mingling? "The prey is going to hear you coming from about 20 fox lengths away. Or are you going to command the sound waves to do your bidding too?"
