[Image Description: Moon 22.5. Crowbrook approaches Fawnslash, who is weaving the walls of the Warrior's Den. Crowbrook asks "Hey, Fawnslash, could you show me how to do that?" Fawnslash smiles and replies "Oh, of course! Here, take a stick and I'll walk you through it." Crowbrook sits down next to him, watching intently as Fawnslash demonstrates. He says "So you hold the stick like this… Then weave it between the branches of the bush like so…" End Image Description.]

[Image Description: Moon 22.4. Crowbrook glances aside, anxiously. She says "You know how Fawnslash is expanding the Warrior's Den? I'd like to help him, but he seems to be doing a good job on his own. He might not want my help." Her thought bubble shows Fawnslash weaving branches into the wall of a den. Beetletail says "It wouldn't hurt to ask anyway! I'm sure he'd appreciate your help, even if he can do the world on his own." Crowbrook grins and says "That's a good point! I'll go ask him now!" Then she runs off, leaving Beetletail behind, still processing her abrupt mood change. He says "Glad to be of service…" End Image Description.]

It’s my bday (June 22nd) can I get a funfact(s) about our little boy. the guy. the snowy guy.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Fun fact: our lil boy guy man would be one of those cats that eats everyone else's food. Full? Keep eating, in fact, eat the other guys food. Though Heron tried her best raising him, he still had notable food insecurity as Heron was only 7 moons old when she was thrust into the role of leader / hunter.

Speaking of, your zodiac sign is Cancer the crab! You share a sign with Heron, who was born July 9th 1700.

[Image Description: Moon 22.2. Moonstar and Sandtooth are having a lively conversation with one another. Stonesnarl sits in the background, wanting to join in but unsure how.

Is the healer's mark ear ticking a way to denote a cat so other clans know not to attack them if a fight breaks out or if they have cross a boarder for herbs?

[Image Description: Sparrowpaw leaps out of hiding, causing the hare to run away from her. It unknowingly runs right into Robinstep, who proceeds to kill it. Robinstep picks up the dead hare in his jaws and looks to Sparrowpaw, who is smiling. Robinstep says "Great job, Sparrowpaw!" End Image Description.]

[Image Description: Moon 21.8. Robinstep remains behind the tree, while Sparrowpaw sneaks around to the other side of the small clearing. She takes care to stay under the cover of trees and bushes along the way. Once she's in front of the hare, she stops in a hunting crouch and looks back at Robinstep. After a pause, he gives her a thumbs up, which is the signal she was waiting for. End Image Description.]

[Image Description: Moon 21.7. Robinstep and Sparrowpaw crouch behind a tree, looking at a hare some distance away. The hare has its back turned and is eating, unaware of the cats watching it. Robinstep turns to Sparrowpaw and says "You go around to the other side, and when I give the signal, you scare it towards me." Sparrowpaw replies "Sounds good!" End Image Description.]

[Image Description: Moon 21.6. Boardash says "Look, Fawnslash… You're a great guy and all, but I'm just not ready for that kind of commitment right now. I'm sorry." Fawnslash takes a second to process this, then looks aside in shame. He says "Oh… that's okay, I understand. Thank you for being honest." The scene then cuts to later that day. Fawnslash sits in the corner of camp, facing the wall with his head down, embarrassed. Aspenheart approaches him from behind and asks "Um… Do you want to talk about it?" Fawnslash replies "no" in a shaky voice. Aspenheart says "Alright, well I'll be here if you need me." End Image Description.]

[Image Description: Moon 21.5. Fawnslash, surprised, exclaims "Really?" Boardash dreamily puts a paw on his face, and replies "Yeah. My ideal mate is someone who's compassionate, and able to keep a level head when things get rough. No kits necessary." Fawnslash is now blushing. He says "And… would they have to be a molly?" Boardash stares at him for a second, then looks at the ground in embarrassment. He says "No, but…" And the page ends there. End Image Description.]

[Image Description: Moon 21.4. Boardash and Fawnslash are walking together. Boardash asks "Have you ever had a mate before, Fawnslash?" Fawnslash looks ashamed and replies "No, never. I didn't know many other cats when I lived with my Lady, and a lot of wild cats don't want a mate who can't provide them with kits." While he speaks, we see grayscale scenes from the past: First, Fawnslash curled up in an old human woman's lap. Second, Fawnslash in the wild being rejected by another cat. Back in the present, Boardash looks straight ahead with a serious expression, and says "I don't think I want kits of my own, to be honest. Sandtooth was enough for me." End Image description.]

[Image Description: Moon 21.3. Crowbrook is in the Healer's Den. Antfoot examines her tail and declares "Your wounds seem to be all better!" Crowbrook smiles as she says "Awesome!" Then, as Antfoot walks away, Crowbrook turns to Beetletail, who is laying in a nest nearby. He still has leaves and cobwebs over the wound at the base of his tail, and it's now aching and infected. Crowbrook says "Uh… sorry, Uncle Beetle. I hope you feel better soon!" Beetletail, with a determined look on his face, replies "Don't worry about me, Kid. A little infection can't keep me down for long!" End Image Description.]
