The Cricket Whisperer

Ooc: Can you reply to what Rainstripe said about Speckledclaw?

[Darky [Megan]]

ooc Sure.

bic Speckledclaw's ear twitched as she listened to Rainstripe. Hmm, why was she still here? The she-cat didn't quite know, herself. There certainly was not much point in staying here. Perhaps she was simply bored. Ah, that would be it.
"I can't say I'm very sure," Speckledclaw admitted, aware that this reply wasn't a very good one at all. "Perhaps I'm simply still here because I find the situation particularly amusing, and perhaps slightly bored, as well." She looked at her tail and half-heartedly began examining the many scars there. That old rat bite still stung sometimes.

The orange tom who had just arrived took no notice of the other three cats, chomping away on even more crickets.

[Gosh]

Bronzefoot padded over. "I see you all have found a colony of crickets," he meowed smoothly. "Mind if I have some? Oh, and by the way, I'm Bronzefoot." He had had some rat meat only a little while ago, but he wasn't satisfied - when was a cat full in this dark place?

"Eh," Speckledclaw muttered, looking at the new cat and glaring at the orange tom. "Perhaps feasting on this particular group of crickets wouldn't be a very wise move." The tabby nodded at Bigstep, hoping that her voice carried a tone of warning.

Rainstripe tugged on Bigstep's ear with her teeth, her long legs straining to reach up to the big tom's head. "We should be going now!" she hissed angrily, lowering her voice so only he could hear it. All these cats were making her nervous and edgy. This was why she didn't like being with more than one cat at a time- it seemed like she was surrounded. "They'll eat all your cricket friends!"
