With the new alliance formed between her clan and two others to her held in mind, Fawnshine padded into the Gathering with a grace she had not saved in long since after the proclamations of Windclan's medicine cat, her apprentice kept close by her side as they walked into the clearing where others have already seated themselves upon. She would be lying if she said she did not miss the familiar coolness of the breeze, replaced by a much warmer sensation rippling through the night sky. Though, the weather was not for her to decide on her wants, as much as she would've preferred that. Sitting by the edge of the Great Rock, she waited for the fellow other medicine cats to arrive.

The familiar sights of the five clans gathering during the full moon were not a sight he was unfamiliar with, especially after attending the Gatherings multiple times himself. Though, as strangely ironic as it was, he found himself looking out for the fellow friends he had made since the late moons of apprenticeship—the familiar faces that made up this 'Birdclan'. He couldn't wait to tell Kestrelchirp of Falconmoon of how he was in another Birdclan of his own, silently hoping that it wouldn't count as a 'betrayal' for the other two members.
Bright, gleaming yellow eyes caught sight of his friend from not afar, and his maw spread into a grin as he walked up to him. "Falconmoon," Thrushnose greeted him, almost failing to take note of another fellow feline sticking by his side from his excitement. "I see there's a new face?" He tilted his head, settling down on the empty spot next to Falconmoon, still on the lookout for Windclan and Kestrelchirp when they'd arrive. He offered the seemingly younger cat by the tom's side a nod and a smile as a greeting. "How've you been?"
Thrushnose is talking to Falconmoon and Lionstripe!
Hawkshriek
Hawkshriek entered the Gathering with the crowd of his clanmates in Riverclan, looking nowhere in particular as he searched for a spot to sit in. He found the sight of an apprentice by herself, and it caused a wave of nostalgia to wash over him from the excitement practically reflecting from her bright, hopeful gaze. It reminded him of himself when he had first attended a Gathering in the young moons of apprenticeship. Humming, he sat down beside Bubblepaw, his maw spread to reveal a warm grin.
"This must be your first Gathering, huh? You seem excited." Hawkshriek chuckled warmly, his tail curling by his paws. "I'm Hawkshriek, by the way. It's nice to meet you. Are you thinking of making any new friends?" He asked, figuring he should still introduce himself formally to the apprentice despite being in the same clan as her. It was strange, but he was becoming more introverted than before. He thought he should at least attempt to break the cycle before he got too used to it.
Hawkshriek is talking to Bublepaw!
Crowspirit
Cooling hues of yellow scanned the clearing as Crowspirit emerged with Shadowclan to make their way up to their usual spot, silently thankful that Windclan seemed to have not yet arrived. Though she found herself not necessarily wanting to make conversation, she noticed a plentiful of new faces in the crowd of other clans, some which she had seen before, and others much less familiar. In any case, a large, flame-colored tom caught her attention, his pelt striking in the midst of the night. She found her curiosity to be piqued by his figure and before she knew it, she was already approaching him.
"Hi there," Crowspirit greeted the tom politely, her smile warm, yet bright, "You seem a bit lost. Is this your first Gathering?" She asked, taking note of his scent. He must be from Thunderclan, based on the smell of fresh oak and a foresty smell she could not put a name to; a scent she came to familiarize with the fellow clan. The young tom seemed a bit sheepish, based on his appearance, but the she-cat knew to not judge too brashly before getting to know someone. "My name is Crowspirit from Shadowclan. It's nice to meet you."
Littlepaw padded into the gathering with her clan as she looked at the giant area. Skyclan was the first clan to arrive but soon the whole clearing was covered in cats mingling. Littlepaw walked around before she noticed Whin and went to sit next to him. "Hey, Hows it going?" she mewed to her friend giving him a slight nudge of her nose on his neck.

Peonypaw padded into the gathering with her clan and shyly looked around. She didnt know where to go until she noticed Amberpaw sitting alone. she silently padded up to her friend with a smile. "H-hi Amberpaw...." she mewed sitting down next to him, facing the leaders on the rock.

◇ whinchatpaw ◇ "you get one chance, make it count."
Whinchatpaw acknowledged Littlepaw's arrival with a gentle flick of his tail against her flank. His eyes remained watchful for the next hoard of cats to enter the clearing. The fur on his back had begun to bristle slightly; he felt a growing sense of discomfort with the amount of cats all in one place.
"They just keep coming-" he replied forlornly to his friend.

Things were not going well as WindClan trudged into the Gathering. Shrikestar felt all eyes on him, from the other clans and even from his own clan. He bristled at it, scowling and not even trying to hide his foul mood. Seeing the other leaders on the Great Rock made his eyes narrow. Being at the Gathering in general felt like a farce. One night of peace his paw. Despite it all, he was there, and he wasn't going to let the other clans - or his own clan - keep him away from his rightful place. So he climbed up the Great Rock, refusing to look at any of the other leaders. He took his spot and looked out into the nothingness instead. Oh StarClan, what was he supposed to do now?
WindClan can now enter the Gathering!

Sootstorm followed behind Shrikestar, more determinded than ever that this was the night he finally had proper interactions with a cat from another clan. the glares sent their way, however, made him stop in his tracts. His gaze flickered uncertaintly from one hostile glare to another. It really was that bad, huh? The dappled tom shrinked into his pelt, but remained determinded to find at least one cat that didn't look like they would rip his pelt off. His eyes met a she-cat's for a heartbeat, and before he knew it he was standing in front of the she-cat.
"Hello! You look like you're looking for someone," He chirped as cheerfully as he could, praying to Starclan that she would at least give him a chance. Sootstorm has approached Murkyripple Tawnyshadow is with Sunflare and will only talk to Shadowclan cats Copperlark is open to interactions, but you have to drag her out first
Nectarflower padded down the slope alongside her clanmates, her chest puffed out proudly. This was her first gathering as a warrior and she intended to make the most of it! So, as the rest of her clanmates flooded into the clearing, Nectarflower weaved among them, trying to find the best spot to settle down for the night.
After a moment, she sat down beside a small group of chatting cats, her tail curled neatly around her paws. Unfortunately, it looked like all of the other clans got here before Windclan, putting her at a slight disadvantage since most cats would already have someone to talk to.
Though this may have deterred a lesser cat, Nectarflower was determined to make a new friend tonight. So, with a huff, she got back up and searched the area for any lonely cats. Of course, it didn't occur to her that some cats may prefer to be alone, she just figured that lonely cats needed more friends.
Finally, her pale green gaze landed on the form of a white tom huddled away at the edge of the clearing. He definitely looked lonely, but no matter! She was here to save the day and keep him company!
With a whisk of her tail, the tortoiseshell she-cat made her way toward the unsuspecting tom. She stopped a few steps away, a bright smile on her face. Hey there! What're you doing all the way over here?"
The young she-cat looked around, taking in the area. It was nice enough she supposed, but not exactly the best spot at fourtrees. They could barely see the leaders from here - though the quiet peacefulness was nice.
Nectarflower has approached Cloudychase! Cedarpaw will not be attending this gathering

The scent of musky pine filled Amberpaw's nostrils as a smoky tabby approached him. As the friendly stranger greeted Amberpaw and offered and introduction, he pawed nervously at the ground with a pale front paw - a habit he's had since kithood. It relieved some of the anxiety that tightened his chest. Despite this subtle nervous action, he kept his expression reserved and collected. "Nice to meet you. I am Amberpaw, Thunderclan." His booming voice masked the cowering kit hidden beneath his skin. "Yes, this is my first gathering." What else was he supposed to say to the she-cat? Talk about the weather? Bring up clan politics? He sensed an awkward silence approaching and tensed with worry.
And then, Peonypaw appeared, and Amberpaw was set at ease. He brushed her with his tail affectionately, then nodded toward the Shadowclanner beside him. "Hey Peonypaw. This is Crowspirit, from Shadowclan. Crowspirit, this is my good friend Peonypaw."
Amberpaw responded to Crowspirit, and introduced Peonypaw to his new acquaintance!
Brindlepaw was followed Thunderclan to Fourtrees, the gleam of excitement in her eyes the only fault in her proud and seemingly unaffected posture. It was the young tortoiseshell's first gathering, and she fought hard to appeared dignified in front of all these unfamiliar cats. At first, she stuck close to her mother, but once the clan cats mixed with one another in the clearing, Brindlepaw found endless curiosity leading her away from the majority of her clanmates. She found herself near two apprentices, one tall, grey and orange and the other small, grey and white, who probably weren't that far from her own age. Although it took her a second, she managed to identify their scent as Skyclan, which she recognised from their forest border, after much trouble untangling it from all the other scents that swarmed around her. Brindlepaw did not yet have any reason to be unfriendly, so she approached the pair of friends with a small smile on her face. "Hi! I'm Brindlepaw from Thunderclan! Is it your guys' first gathering as well?" She asked, taking a seat beside them. "You're from Skyclan, right?" She added, wanting to show off that she knew where they were from without asking.
Brindlepaw is talking to Winchatpaw and Littlepaw
Violetpaw was a tangled mess of worry and excitement on the way to her first gathering, unable to untie the knot in her stomach no matter how many deep breaths she took. Upon entering the clearing, she breathed a sigh of relief that Skyclan were the first here and she would have time to collect herself. However, soon endless numbers of cats were filling into Fourtrees, overwhelming the young apprentice entirely. There was just so many of them. It blew her mind that each pair of eyes in the dark was a three-dimensional personality, full of story and family whose world perception came entirely through their own lens. As much as she wanted to endlessly question each one of them, her paws stayed frozen in shock as she watched cats be acquainted and reacquainted with old friends.
Eventually, she managed to force her feet to move, searching for anyone who looked like an apprentice, hopefully one who was also at their first gathering to make the whole experience seem less terrifying. A pair of apprentices with a warrior caught her attention, and she slowly made her way towards them. If she wasn't mistaken, the apprentices were from Thunderclan, their forests scent one she was familiar with from their shared border. She could immediately tell they didn't know the warrior, not only from what they were saying, but also because her scent was distinctly different, one of more musk and pinesap. Shadowclan?
Violetpaw had no idea what to say, but could tell the Thunderclan tom was in the same predicament as her. She smiled at him and his friend, dipping her head in greeting to the three cats. "Hi Peonypaw, I'm Violetpaw. Both got flower names, that's cool right?" She said slightly uncertainly, as if she suddenly doubted whether a peony was even a flower.
Violetpaw is talking to Crowspirit, Amberpaw and Peonypaw
Leopardsun followed ShadowClan into the clearing, brushing aside her grief and her anxieties for her Clan. It got easier with time, to pretend they weren't lingering just below the surface. A polite nod to the other deputies, without any of the usual small talk, was all she offered.Lightningbreeze loved Gatherings: it was an opportunity to speak to cats from other Clans, to get to know them on a personal level without risking a fight (usually), and it was a night dedicated to peace. As far as she was concerned, it was great- as long as nothing went wrong.Nightdancer followed the rest of ThunderClan into Fourtrees, sitting with her Clanmates. Another Gathering, another chance for chaos.
Leopardsun is sitting with the other deputies. Lightningbreeze is open to talk to! Nightdancer is open to talk to!
Dawnfeather followed Violetpaw into the hollow, keeping an eye on her daughter from a comfortable distance. She looked like she was making friends, which was great! A comforting smile and encouraging wave to Wolfblossom on the Greatrock, and the golden molly sat near SkyClan, ready to collect her dears and bolt if necessary.
Ridgecrest watched Peonypaw as she approached a couple of apprentices. Huh. Looked like she was doing well, which was good.
Blackpaw trailed behind ShadowClan, sitting with her Clan and managing to look less like a teenager who’s entire world was falling apart than normal.
Dawnfeather, Ridgecrest, and Blackpaw are open to speak with!
Swanpaw padded into the gathering with the rest of Riverclan, eyes widening at the barrage of unfamiliar scents and faces. Perchstar had gone for the large rock in the center of the hollow, where two other she-cats were sitting. It wasn't long before more cats came pouring into the clearing with another two joining Perchstar and who she assumed were the other leaders. Unsure of what to do, Swanpaw stuck close to her fellow Riverclanners, though her pale blue eyes swept over the rest of the gathering cats with curiosity.
Swanpaw is open to talk. As are Graywind and Stoneheart.
Thornstalker followed the rest of Skyclan into the gathering clearing, her small form making her somewhat hidden among her larger clanmates. The pale warrior looked around at the gathered cats unsure of where she should sit, until she spotted Falconmoon, while he may have been speaking with someone else, she figured he wouldn't mind. She offered a nod and a simple "Hello." to the others in the area.
Tigerdance followed Windclan into the gathering, not very pleased at the current moment with his leadership so the tom sat off to the side, trying to avoid associating with his clan for the time being.
Owlcall walked with his clan, his blue eyes flicking between all of his new siblings that were attending the gathering. He didn't want any of his siblings causing trouble for Riverclan. He looked to Ravenpaw. "Stay out of trouble, and keep an eye on your siblings as well." The large brown tom said, fixing his younger brother with an intense stare, before walking over and finding Swanpaw. "Everything okay?"
Ravenpaw gave a simple okay in response to his older brother, before letting out a groan when Owlcall was out of ear shot. Of course his older brother was over bearing.. He loved him but sometimes it was a bit too much. Oh well, he wasn't going to let that keep him down. Bright yellow eyes looked around the clearing looking for something interesting to do. The tom was quick to find a Shadowclan apprentice sitting on their own. (Blackpaw) "Hi! I'm Ravenpaw, What's your name?" He asked the apprentice.
Thornstalker is talking with Falconmoon, Lion and Thrush. Tigerdance is open for conversation. Owlcall is talking with Swanpaw. Ravenpaw is talking with Blackpaw.

His first ever Gathering. Dovepaw couldn't help but be a little bit wowed by the sheer number of cats inside. Scents he'd only ever caught whiffs of at borders, and some that he'd never even thought of before. Pelts of all different colors. And of course, on the Great Rock, five cats. Perchstar he knew, and he'd heard a few rumors about the other leaders, but he couldn't quite put names to faces yet. However, he didn't have the privilege of letting his eyes wander. He had to keep an eye on his siblings. Swanpaw was over there with Owlcall. Ravenpaw had gone off to speak to another apprentice. Good. They'd be safe in Fourtrees under the stars' promise of peace, he knew, but he couldn't help but feel a bit worried. It wouldn't be possible to keep watch on all of them if they split up. So he stood on the edge of RiverClan's ranks for a brief moment, torn between his desire to learn and explore and his need to protect his siblings.
◇ whinchatpaw ◇ "you get one chance, make it count."
To his dismay another cat was coming towards them. Please turn another way... please... Alas, the dark-furred she-cat seemed to have her eyes trained on them. Whinchatpaw visibly took a step back behind Littlepaw. The tom listened to this stranger in his disquietude, answering only when needed. Thunderclan? He found he did recognize the scent this apprentice carried with her. To both her questions, he gave a hesitant reply.
"Um... yes."
Whinchatpaw is making... conversation. with Brindlepaw and Littlepaw

Walk like a majestic lion, eyes glinting with so much desire. Pour more gasoline on fire, fly again, rising through the flames.
Bubblepaw blinked curiously as one of her Clanmates came to sit beside her. RiverClan was always lively and bright with cats of all ranks coming and going, leaving their dens for the day and heading back into them for the night, heading out of camp to go on patrols and coming back for some well-earned rest. She considered herself to be pretty good with names, but there were still some that she didn't know. It would only be right to know the names of all the cats in her Clan. Plus, it would be rather rude if she didn't know who some RiverClan cats were. She lived with them, after all. The apprentice put on a matching warm smile as she looked up to meet the Hawkshriek's gaze.
"Oh, hi! I'm Bubblepaw. It is my first gathering, although I kind of hoped I wouldn't make it so obvious. Guess that didn't work out very well for me." The apprentice's tone sounded just as happy as her smile. She glanced around the clearing once again. It was honestly a lovely sight. When she was told about the other Clans, she had often imagined that all they did was fight. She had never been able to truly visualize them getting along until tonight. "I'd love to make some new friends. I'm so curious as to how the other Clans operate. Like, do SkyClan cats really jump on trees? That must be crazy."
