Spottedgem entered the Grand Cavern, flicking her tail in farewell to the Tunnelers that she had accompanied on a trip to find gems. She slowed as she approached the dip in the center of the Cavern, sitting and setting down the rose quartz and selenite in her mouth onto the moss. She inspected the gems a second time under the soft glow in the chamber, before nodding to herself in satisfaction. Lifting her gaze, Spottedgem noticed the cats lounging about on the moss, and she began to converse with some of the cats near her. As a tom answered Spottedgem's greeting, Spottedgem noticed one of the she-cats at the edge of the Cavern. Spottedgem's pupils narrowed slightly, trying to remember the she-cat's name. She recognized her; there were six moons between them, if she remembered correctly, so Spottedgem did spend two moons near the she-cat before she was made apprentice. Lilycloud. That was her name. Spottedgem excused herself, picking up her rose quartz and selenite and trotting over to the pretty she-cat. "Hello, Lilycloud! How are you?" Spottedgem asked warmly as soon as she had sat and dropped the gems. Tags: jinxy Notes: finally managed to post this aha im sorry for taking so long! |

Lilycloud tiredly flopped into her nest. She had spent entire day hunting for her clan, then hanging out with her sister Dawnstone before going down to the caverns to search for more gems. Lilycloud hoped she'd bring her some, she loved gems. Her favorite though was Rose Quarts, a gem she always assigned herself. It was silly to see yourself in a rock, but something about the stone drew her near, made her feel safe. She hugged the one in her nest closer with her tail as though it may roll away if she didn't know it was near at all times. Lilycloud looked over when she heard lots of voiced echo along the cave, soft murmuring turned to greetings. She looked over to see it was a bunch of tunneler's back with gems. Nothing Lilycloud understood, she didn't know about caves and gems, only some names. She'd ask Dawnstone to teach her but she hadn't seemed to remember any names. She turned back, facing away from the new cats that had joined and let her mind wander. "Hello, Lilycloud! How are you?" Lilycloud squeaked, jumping a bit and whirling around to face Spottedgem, the leader of Chasmclan. 'Oh no am I in trouble? What did I do?' Lilycloud put on a shaky smile, her ears flat against her head. "H-h-hello Spottedgem" she meowed, dipping her head respecably. "I-i-I'm g-good. y-you?" she hated how she stuttered through the sentence but she kept on the nervous smile. Tags: zesty, Notes: Don't even worry about it! oh I love her btw <333

Spottedgem's eyes widened upon Lilycloud's skittish response. She certainly didn't remember Lilycloud having a stutter. Then again, Spottedgem didn't interact much with the cats that weren't heirs as a kit and apprentice. "I'm doing well," the she-cat answered, adding a kind smile at the end; whether it was to calm herself or calm Lilycloud, Spottedgem didn't know. An awkward silence stretched between them as Spottedgem struggled for something to say, which is something that never happened. She wished she had brought Rhodonite instead, maybe it would help calm Lilycloud down. Spottedgem looked down at the two gems at her paws, and pushed the Rose Quartz forward with her nose. It wasn't Rhodonite, and it wouldn't help a panicky cat at all, but it would have to do. "Here you go, take care of this for me, yeah?" Spottedgem said, with a flirty smile.

"I'm doing well" Lilycloud looked at the ground, willing Dawnstone to come. She wasn't sure what Spottedgem wanted but she was sure she was in trouble, she did something. She must have! No ever came to just chat with her, no she was much too weird. She was sure her heart was thumping so hard against her ribs that the other molly could hear, only making her more anxious. 'I wish Dawnstone was here, she knows how to fix this, I can't take care of myself" she thought sadly. Then the molly pushed a gem toward her. Lilycloud looked up from the ground to look at the other molly in confusion. "Here you go, take care of this for me, yeah?"
Lilycloud gasped as she realized it was a Rose Quarts, her favorite gem. She pulled the gem much closer, hugging it closely. She looked up at the molly with large doe eyes. "O-Of course, I l-love Rose Quarts." She purred. She looked back up at the molly with confusion again. She didn't understand why this molly was being so nice when she was in trouble. "A-am I in trouble?" she asked, looking at the gem the molly had given her. Tags: zesty,

Spottedgem sat a little straighter as Lilycloud gasped and seemed to come alive. She felt proud to have evoked such a response from the normally shy and quiet she-cat. "O-Of course, I love Rose Quartz." The ChasmClan leader made a mental note of this, glad to have found a gem that Lilycloud adored so. She looked at Spottedgem with large, doe-like eyes, and Spottedgem noticed how pretty they were; a comforting gray-blue. Although they were the roughly same size, both small, Spottedgem felt a surge of protectiveness well up within her. Lilycloud seemed like too small and delicate for this world. "Well, I'm glad you like it," Spottedgem smiled. However, the smile didn't last long as Lilycloud asked if she was in trouble. "No, of course not!" Spottedgem hurried to assuage her worries. What gave her that idea? Had I not been polite enough? "Just wanted to check in... you know, as ChasmClan leaders do."
Spottedgem didn't know what it was, but she felt clunky and useless when she was with Lilycloud. Each time she tried to talk to the she-cat, it seemed like she did something wrong. Tags: jinxy Notes: i can't believe my reply is so late im SO sorry |

"No, of course not!" Lilycloud sighed in relief, her muscles relaxing. She had been expecting the leader to drop something on her. Lilycloud was sure she had done something wrong, maybe taken the wrong gem, or even worse said something to Dawn accidentally. The last one sent a shiver down her spine, not wanting to think about how she could have hurt her sister's feelings and done it in front of the clan. She instead focused on the ohter molly again, her shy smile much brighter now. She realized she might have offended the leader, the look of confusion prominent in her eye. "I-I'M SORRY SPOTTEDGEM- I DIDN'T MEAN- I just h-have a bad memory and I was a-afraid I did something bad on accident" she meowed, looking at the ground. "Just wanted to check in... you know, as ChasmClan leaders do." Lilycloud perked up, realizing just how innocent the conversation was. "Oh!" she giggled, feeling her fur grow hot. "How silly of me, y-y-you just wanted to t-talk and I-I was a-afraid y-y-you'd come to y-yell at me" she meowed, looking at the ground. She looked back at Spottedgem, feeling as though emotions seemed to flick from one to the next. "I'm sorry" she whispered, her eyes castes to the floor like a child who had done something wrong.

Spottedgem tilted her head as Lilycloud relaxed, and felt a little rush of pride run through her at finally getting the she-cat to not be so quiet. Lilycloud offered her a bright smile, and Spottedgem reflected it on her own muzzle. Lilycloud offered some explanation, and Spottedgem shrugged. "Don't worry about it, dear!" Spottedgem said, tone easy-going. Lilycloud deflated again, and Spottedgem's ears pulled back a little in consternation. "It's alright. Please don't worry--" Spottedgem was about to say more, when she caught the eye of one of the Chief Tunnelers darting in from the Council Chamber, who was looking worried and frantic. She got a sinking feeling about the news she was about to receive, already suspecting and dreading more news about black gemstones. Spottedgem leaped up to her paws, forgetting to mask the concern on her face. Remembering that she was in Lilycloud's company, Spottedgem quickly schooled her expression into a smile. "Duty calls, Lilycloud. How about you join me tomorrow at the underground lake and we can go hunting together?"Tags: jinxy Notes: Sneaked some clan plot in to wrap this thread up and also got Spotted to ask Lily out on a date (; |
