( Ok So for starters I just want to say that I LOVE the idea of the sickness! I think it only really needs to be semi-realistic, though, otherwise we're going to have cats dying off left and right lol. The amount of research you guys went to put into it is awesome, haha. Also, welcome to the new members, and welcome back Lime!! :3 ) ρυмρкιηqυєєη13 "Yes.. they are" Dawnwish meowed, her tone wistful as she enjoyed the moment of peace,just her and her friend atop the breezy hill amidst the sea of bright, sweet flowers. Her pause lasted only a moment or two, and then she continued forward, gesturing towards the stalks. "Bite along the stem here, underneath the first set of leaves below the flower but not all the way to the base," she meows, demonstrating for Leafheart. She sets the flowers down at the other she-cat's feet. "Don't worry about carrying a whole bunch of them, either. A mouthful from each of us will keep the clan stocked for quite some time." (!!! you're back!  how are you? also, since it's been a moon, should we finish out this scene or continue rping it? i could have Leafheart still helping Dawnwish with herbs and such?) "Alright," Leafheart followed Dawnwish's directions and began to pick off some of the herbs. She concentrated on that task only, making sure she did it right. There were a few moments she realized she had bitten them off just slightly too short, or too long, but she stuck them in the small pile and hoped for the best. After all, she didn't want to waste any of these by doing it wrong. She continued to follow with her task for a few moments before she'd gotten a good little pile. She picked the pile of flowers in her jaws and moved over to Dawnwish, a newfound set of pride rising in her, but she held it down. She was just happy to help. |

Starlingwisp nodded at her brother confirming what Littleear explained. "Do you know we're Dawnwish is brother? Perhaps I can look for her if you have an idea." She added. (Sorry it's short. Not really an excuse.)

(Let's finish out the day and get Peony named deputy and then timeskip. I'll take my cats back to camp to speed thigns up too.) NoviBadger shook his head. He taught Ivyfang how to be quick-tongued a little too well. Or perhaps he'd always been that way, it was hard to say for sure. He nudged Scarlet forward with his nose, his large body rising and shaking out moss. "Come along now, you can't fool me. You need your rest after running so far to catch up with Ivyfang and I. Besides, once we start real training, you'll be thankful for any naps I offer to you." He rumbled, leading Scarlet back towards their hollow. ------- ρυмρкιηqυєєη13(Yes! I am back. I'm still crazy busy with finishing up school and starting up my shop, but things are smoothing out. How are you?) Dawnwish looked up as Leafheart approached her, a bundle of stalks in her mouth. For her first try, she had done fairly well. Nothing she couldn't use, anyway. "Great! Let's go ahead and take these back to camp. No use in keeping ourselves away for too long" She meowed, picking up her bundle in her jaws and starting in a brisk trot down the hill. The silence between the two of them wasn't uncomfortable- pleasant, actually. Neither could speak through the bundle of herbs, but the shared sounds of the forest and the birdsong above seemed to be enough. As they neared the camp, however, Dawnwish felt a slow unease start to creep into her fur, lifting the hairs along her spine. Something doesn't feel right...She gave a look to Leafheart and quickened their pace, pushing through the camp at more of a semi-run. Dawnwish set down her bundle of herbs, tasting the unmistakeable tang of pestilence in the air. "What is going on here?" ------ Coonface had finished washing her paws off and was making her way back to camp when she spotted Dawnwish and Leafheart coming back into camp. She noted their hurried pace and guessed that they must have already been told about the strange bird. Huh, didn't think they'd make it back that fast. Maybe I should avoid the craziness of camp and just go on a quick hunt instead...Coonface turned, pricking her ears out across the marsh. What would be best? |

Lttleear looked away from Breezestar as Dawnwish exploded into camp, giving her a sloppy smile and blinking a few times to regain his stability and walk again, taking a few steps toward the medicine cat. "I.. found a dead bird that looked like it had been killed by a cat and picked it up to show Breezestar.. but it tasted funny." He explained again, still woozy.
"I don't know what happened but when I got back to camp I started spasming out."

Peony had watched quietly as the family interacted. It was nice to see the concern for each other, even if Yew was... admittedly distant and a bit strange to her. "Alright..." She watched Yew disappear before she continued to lead the way back into camp. It seemed that there was some sort of tizzy going on and immediately her fur bristled in alarm.
~~~~
(and pumpkin we can just keep going until the ceremony ends and then we can do the timeskip?:3)
"I don't fear too many large birds in the trees." Nectarfur was large. He was large enough that he felt even many of the hawks wouldn't come after him unless they were desperate. Nectarfur blinks at the toms question. Training cats outside of the clan?
"Well..." he hums quietly to himself as he thinks it over.
"We have trained cats outside of the clan before, most have expressed interest in joining, though. There is a sweet cat named Peony who joined us, she used to belong to Two-legs but is now a very trusted member of the clan. It... isn't common. I suppose if it didn't distract from clan duties, and the clan cat trusted the other cat not to use those techniques against the clan...then it wouldn't exactly be against the rules.." He gives his apprentice a look. Many cats were strict with clan rules, spoken or unspoken. What did she think about him saying that?
(Littleear is reporting about the dead bird they ran into and tasted. Dawnwish has just been informed. Breezestar should/is(?) in the scene because of the alarming news of there being sick prey on the territory. Peony and Nightpaw just returned. Mikel is with Nectarfur. Twigpaw and Lightningstrike are still training, I don't think you ever saw my reply...?^^; so we could have end the scene and bring them back for the ceremony if you'd like? and I know a few other cats were in camp hanging out, and some were out in the woods...?? ^^; I'm not positive

Juniperfrost sat outside the nursery, curling her tail around her belly. The news of ill prey on the territory was unsettling to say the least. How could they know what was safe to eat? It was easy to tell if the animal was already dead, but did this disease kill right away or could a live piece of prey carry it, be caught and brought back to camp, and spread it that way?
Ivyfang slipped back into camp with ease. He'd managed a bit of hunting on his way back, although nothing too fat and noticeable. When he saw the dead bird, his eyes narrowed slightly. What had he missed this time?
Scarlet mumbled under her breath, but obeyed and lead the way back. Now that she wasn't running along trying to catch up to two toms much larger than her, it was easier to keep her paws under her and she managed to keep her fur on her pelt for the trip back. Once there, she curled up in her nest and quickly fell asleep.
(We'll need to decide real quick what the clan would've done over the 1 moon timeskip. would more cats have gotten sick? they'd have to be working on pinpointing the source and the like ofc)

((I think so, they'd also realize that it's passed on by prey so there could be the start of a food shortage out of paranoia and stuff.))

Breezestar pinned his ears back. "This is not good." He didn't like the idea of his cats falling ill. "I suppose we will have to be careful." He wondered if they could simply hunt fish or hunt on the outskirts of their territory.

"Correct, Breezestar, you should do the ceremony, Dawnwish is back, and she can take care of Littleear," Starlingwsp suggested. Her gaze watched the tom rather wearily, as if it pained her to see another cat in pain.
(Hey Cinna, can we have Wispkit/Wisppaw's event happen after the timeskip? I think you know what I'm talking about, correct? Anyways, I feel it would be a fitting time, but she will be a warrior apprentice to begin with.)

Wispkit walked out from the shelter of the den, and smiled, spotting Dawnwish. She then ran up to the group, and looked at the medicine cat. She pointed to the freshkill pile, and pointed back at him, trying to communicate he brought back poisoned prey. She wanted to help with something!

(I imagine more cats would have gotten sick. If this is the case we could possibly use that for people who have come inactive..? I sadly don't think Ravenspell will be coming back anytime soon ;; They would have to be working towards pinpointing the source, but where would this source be? Two-leg camp area? somewhere off in the woods where some two-legs were messing around? Polluted water source? Definitely a food shortage like Lime said, because you can't just bring back any prey in case it is also contaminated.)

(I think two-leg camp area could be good, after they leave leftover food is going to attract animals and they could have left out some sort of poisonous thing as well. So it could also be explained that some animals walked through it and got it on their fur ??
Also, since I don't really have a muse for littleear,, should he die of the sickness?? I created Hopfoot as a character I'll rp with more once the next moon starts.)

(Peony angst of having two-legs hurt the clan she loves lmao. But yeah, that'd definitely make sense. It could be something. Could be something like an alcohol or anti-freeze... which is harsh but "Antifreeze poisoning occurs in two phases. In the first phase, the animal typically appears lethargic, disoriented, uncoordinated and groggy. Symptoms usually appear 30 minutes to one hour after ingestion and can last for several hours. If your pet is behaving this way, don't delay. Call a veterinarian. Consider whether any of her activities could have brought her into contact with antifreeze.
The second phase, which can last up to three days, is characterized by symptoms such as vomiting, oral and gastric ulcers, kidney failure, coma and death.
" It doesn't account for the immediate things that we already roleplayed, but...? and if you have no muse for Littleear, then he is your character and you should feel free to do with them as you wish! If you're more excited to roleplay Hopfoot and don't want to keep Littleear around, then go for it! ) |

(Actually, I think we decided on a insecticide? I feel either would work though.)
(Honestly, I think Yew will die. Starlingwisp will probably end up with the sickness to a almost critical stage and might survive. Wispkit is going to probably be unaffected(As a major plot including her will be occurring once the next moon started and Cinna gets on). Nightpaw should be unaffected, but that in decisions right now.)

(Wispkit is going to probably be unaffected(As a major plot including her will be occurring once the next moon started and Cinna gets on). (So are you actually going to share eith us whatever you have planned for Wispkit, Web? Cinnamon and Lime may be the owners of this clan, but if it's a plot that affects everyone (and im assuming it is since you call it a major plot) you need the okay of everyone >.> going through the basic idea in PM with one of them is fine just to get it okayed in the beginning, but to act like it's all figured out and to simply go ahead without telling us what's happening is, in my opinion, incredibly rude. You act like you already have Cinnamon's okay, so what's the issue? Why keep it a secret? The roleplay is a group thing so treat it as such.) |

(Wait, my mistake. I thought I had already told you guys? Hadn't I? Well if I didn't...
Wispkit is a mute kit as of now. Cinna has agreed that when Dawnwish leaves camp to communicate with Starclan to Twilightclan's equivalent to the Moonstone, Wispkit/paw follows, and when she enters the area falls asleep. As part of the wish plot, her one wish is confirmed and given to her, and she receives a voice. I think Cinna said that this prompts Dawnwish to notice Wispkit/paw's liking in medicine and takes her as a medicine cat apprentice.
Anyways I'm sorry! I thought I had already told you guys about this!)

(Hm...so this question is more for Lime and Cinnamon since the plot was originally theirs and im not sure where they wanted to go with it (if they had any ideas to begin with) but, does everyone in the clan get a wish? That could get hectic.... Especially if they're capable of doing things like giving a cat a voice. Wishes in general can be pretty OP if misused. Wispkit cant be the only cat to get a wish since the prophecy was meant for the whole clan. But will every cat get one? If not, maybe those who dont get one become jealous and irritated at those who do and that creates tension? But how is it decided who gets one and who doesn't? Outside of our personal choice of course.)

(The way the wish (idk remember if it's more than one, i think it might be a few) works is that not everyone gets a wish, only those who desire it the most will have it come true, so like, cats who have already been wishing for this thing long before))

( yeah so basically the idea behind the wishes is to get RPers involved and have some fun stuff happen with their cats at least once in roleplay. As Lime said, it can't be a sudden wish or something terribly unrealistic. Lynx is the first one to come up with a wish idea, so naturally her wish plot is first. Wispkit doesn't have any physical defects, she just doesn't talk. I wouldn't consider Starclan giving a kit the ability to speak (perhaps giving her more courage? it depends on Wispkit's original reason for not talking) is terribly unrealistic. Lots of kids don't talk until they're well into their toddler stage, and its not really a miracle or anything when they do, so I don't see it as a big issue when applied to personified cats. However, if someone has a big issue with this plot, then of course they should bring it up, as I want everyones experience to be fun!)
"Oh my goodness!" Dawnwish meowed, padding forward quickly to sniff him. Dried bile crusted at the sides of his mouth, but the stench of illness still seeped from his pelt. "You didn't vomit, did you? I'll need nettle.. we can't let that poison continue to seep through your gut.. Can someone fetch me some soaked moss and help Littlespring to my den?!" She meowed, her voice ringing our clearly through the hollow at th end. Then, dashing to her den, she started hurridly pulling off stalks and leaves, muttering under her breath. "As soon as possible, please!" She yowled, not wanting to wait a moment longer but unable to do everything by herself.
------
( I'm just going to leave Badger asleep for now, and continue with him after timeskip stuff is sorted out)
------
Coonface's ears pricked as she was stepping off into the forest. That sounds like Dawnwish shouting... oh Starclan! Could Peony be sick?! Her heart started pounding immediately, anxiety gripping its jaws into her chest. Her paws skid in the mud as she rushed back into camp, thundering her body into camp and losing a few tufts of fur on the branches that guarded the entrance. She canned the gathering crowd for her mother and started to breath again.
Brushing their fluffy fur together, she jumped slightly when Dawnwish shouted once more from her den. Her eyes caught Littleear's bedraggled form and her eyes widened "Oh my gosh! Littleear!"

Littleear's fur puffed up at Dawnwish's sudden burst of movement, his pelt tingling with embarrasment and worry at how she reacted. It didn't make it any better when Coonface burst through the camp entrance very loudly. He was about to say something when the edges of his vision blurred again and he tilted forward, landing face first on the ground with a grunt, the back of his throat itching.
