Okay, let's talk. [OPEN]

[Ripplestar]

Ripplestar padded out of the leaders den and yawned. She was tired. And she was definitely not a morning cat. Maybe she'd find someone to go hunting with, and that'd wake her up. She padded over to the fresh-kill pile and chose a nice, tasty trout. She looked up hopefully to find a cat to share it with, and then maybe go hunting with. Spotting one, she smiled. "Hi!" She said cheerfully. "Do you want to share this with me?"

[Silverstream]

Silverstream was in her den reorganizing her herbs, and dusting out the cracks in the dens wall in which her herbs were stored at. It was pretty early in the morning and lots of cats were not awake at this time. So when she was done she didn't really have anybody to talk to. She didn't have an apprentice either. Which made things allot more lonelier.

Her ears swerved around as she heard paw steps outside. Who is awake?  She shuffled from one paw to another. Should I go outside and check who it is? Now what if I disturbed them! She really wanted someone to talk to so she just shrugged it off and slipped out of her den. 

She looked around as she noticed Ripplestar. A smile spread across her face. She hadn't spoke to her leader in a while. She padded towards her quickly. Once she reached her she dipped her head respectfully. "Hey there Ripplestar." She meowed with a cheerful smile.

[Ripplestar]

"Silverstream!" Ripplestar mewed happily. She loved talking to the medicine cat. "How are you? How the medicine cat work going?" Ripplestar mewed a little playfully.

[Silverstream]

Silverstream smiled widely. "Medicine-cat duties! They have been good. But I can't help to say that it does get lonely sometimes." She meowed. Silverstream was so glad she could talk to someone for once. "Well how about you? How have you been managing with all the leader work?" She asked with a playful smile.  

[Ripplestar]

Ripplestar grinned and replied. "Not bad, not bad." then she though of something and her smile faded and a frown appeared on her face. "Actually, I'm worried about Ashclan...and Nightstar in particular." she confessed awkwardly. "You know about my friendship with Nighstar, no doubt. And I'm worried about her. At the gathering, she looked...uncomfortable and unhappy...and I'm wondering if it might have something to do with how Ashclan is doing...but I can't find a way to talk to her!" Ripplestar burst out.

[Silverstream]

Silverstream's smile turned into a frown. She couldn't help to see Ripplestar in suck discomfort. Seeing her feel down made her stomach flip over. It made her feel bad. She does indeed know how she if really good friends with Nightstar, but she didn't really attend this moons gathering she came in late so she pretty much missed it all. Biting her lip she spoke up. 

"Well I'm pretty sure she'll be fine. Maybe it's because there haven't been much kits or growth in Ashclan that must have made her react a little differently. We're having the same problem here. So she might be worried for her clan." She meowed glancing around. She continued. "Maybe by the next gathering you guys can get a chance to catch up on a few things." She meowed with a thoughtful glance. 

She indeed hoped that Ashclan was ok. She also hoped that Nightstar, and Ripplestar could have a chance to catch up at the next gathering. 

[Ripplestar]

"I hope so...." Ripplestar mewed, slightly comforted. She hoped it was just a little problem that could be fixed easily. Surely if it was something serious Nightstar would have told her. It was probably just the amount of kits in the clan. Stormclan was having problems with that as well. Also, leafbare was coming, so all the leaders were worried about that. Starclan knew that was all Ripplestar thought about these days.

"Thanks, Silverstream." Ripplestar mewed quietly. "I guess I just needed to hear that." Ripplestar gave a small smile."On a different note, would you like to go hunting?"
