"Damned be that deputy..." The tortoiseshell grumbled to herself. For all of about ten seconds, she was really excited for a patrol! One to lead! With her friends nonetheless, even with Torridflame and Fawnpaw coming along, she thought they really could have a decent outing. Only for Owlbark to tell them it was to practice their diplomacy.
It scoffed just at the word. It wasn't a council member. It wasn't some mediator for the shit between clans! It was a warrior and hunter and now she had to drag her feet with a rabble of her friends knowing they would have none of their fun pissing off the locals. None of her friends were dirty rats, so it just seemed he had a radar for when the group of them had an idea and wanted to stick a thorn in their sides without fail.
They chuffed a sigh, tail dusting the ground as they approached the border, ear flicking as she listened out for any cats. It was just the moon before she was here, with Hazelheart on a border patrol, and maybe it'd be fun to be back but any joy that would have come with it was sapped away just knowing the upcoming gathering would rat them all out for any behaviours Owlbark and those Skyclan cats deemed "bad".
Snapdragon faced her friends, realising with a snicker she was basically babysitting half a family of cats and a single apprentice she shot a quick warning. "I'm just as pissed we got sent on a trip to act like diplomats. But we gotta be somewhat cordial or we're gonna be picking ticks off Urchinespine for the next moon and get no change going to the gathering." Her gaze flit to Fawnpaw, Flicker's little apprentice who was much kinder eyed than most the cats her age, the same little scrap of fur she darted to save from the hawk attack on the camp some moons ago.
The young warrior hummed, before letting a breath out. "All you gotta worry 'bout Fawnpaw is knowing the border lines, that's what we're here to mark. Don't cross over 'nd if we run into any Skyclan cats, stick with Flickerdance, got it?" How the kit had earned the high honours of Snapdragon being an ounce of kind to her was besides even the molly herself, but maybe having already saved her pelt once meant she didn't want her in trouble again.
The tortoiseshell didn't know, but regardless she motioned her friends to get to refreshing borders, Snapdragon padding to the tree stump Hazelheart started with the last time they were there. "Let's just get this patrol over 'nd done with before we get a lecture from someone. There was always something they were doing wrong according to the older warriors--well they usually were but they always picked up on dumb stuff like marking borders wrong or picking up stuff too close to someone elses border. She still didn't fully understand clan life, it was far different from her own colony in such head-turning ways.
