Ambersun and Crookedlight were assigned on a hunting patrol together. They had chatted on and off for a while, randomly spending time together. Crookedlight was not used to cats that would flirt back with him, but Ambersun met his advances just as eagerly as he provided them. It wasn’t really that Crookedlight had particular desires with Ambersun; it was all in good fun, really. It was easier to flirt with his clanmates than to simply hold a conversation.
Their conversation was sparse now as they hunted through the treelines for birds or squirrels. Crookedlight still took the occasional opportunity to walk up to Ambersun and brush against her with a smile before slinking away to continue hunting. When he brushes his pelt against hers this time, he purrs, “Your coat has gotten more radiant recently. Doing something new?”
Ambersun smiled as Crookedlight brushed past her. "Not much," she replied. "Just grooming extra thoroughly for you, darling." Honestly, she wasn't doing anything different, so she assumed it was just the sunlight hitting her pelt just right. But that wasn't very fun to say, so Ambersun embellished to flirt back.
At first, Ambersun had wondered if she and Crookedlight would ever become mates. She found the idea very appealing, but as she learned more about Crookedlight, she felt like he didn't see them like that. Which was fine. Noticing a bird perched at the treetops, the young she-cat launched herself at it. The bird tried to fly away, but Ambersun caught one of its wings, before biting at its neck to kill it. Smirking, the young she-cat jumped down to bury it, before returning to the treetops and Crookedlight.
Ambersun attempted to catch a bird, costing 3 stamina. Hunt was a success!

Crookedlight
Crookedlight grinned at Ambersun as he watched her scamper up the tree and nab a bird with ease. It didn’t stand a chance. He purred and cheered, “Great job! I hope I can catch something as easily as you.”
He moved in his own direction to try and scent some prey. He spotted a squirrel up a tree and he scampered up it like Ambersun had done. He is certainly better at climbing trees than he had been in his youth, but it was still a bit awkward or him despite his SkyClan heritage. He managed to get up the tree, though at a slower pace than Ambersun had managed, and his claw hooked onto the squirrel before it could run off. He bit it as he dropped back down to the ground.
“Almost missed it!” he chuckled as he dropped his prey beside Ambersun’s own catch. His gaze spotted something over Ambersun’s shoulder and his eyes lit up. He moved past her and to a small patch of flowers that were growing. “Look at how pretty these are.” He leaned down and bit one flower, pulling it from its root. He turned back to Ambersun and purred. When he returned to her, he placed the flower at her paws. “For you. I think it matches you pelt nicely.”
Crookedlight successfully caught a squirrel! -3 SP.

Ambersun watched as Crookedlight scurried up the tree to try and catch a squirrel, before landing gracefully on his feet. "Nice catch!" she said at the same time as Crookedlight's comment. "I mean, you still caught it. Don't sell yourself too short, y'know?"
As Crookedlight's gaze lit up, Ambersun turned to see what he was looking at. Realizing what it was, the young she-cat's eyes widened in shock. A beautiful patch of flowers, with whites, blues, and purples, so small but so beautiful. How did I miss that earlier? After Crookedlight picked one of the prettiest white flowers for Ambersun, the ginger she-cat giggled in delight. "I love it," she grinned, stretching her neck to put it behind her ear.
Now it was her turn to return the favor.
Searching the patch for a pretty blue or purple flower for the black-and-white tom (she felt those would look better on him than a white one), the light ginger she-cat plucked one of the dark purple flowers, before returning to Crookedlight. "Hold still, darling," she cooed, tucking the flower behind Crookedlight's ear. "Wanna go look at our reflections in the creek?" Yeah, they were skipping on hunting duty, but she wanted him to see how pretty the flower looked on him before they continued their hunt.

Crookedlight
Crookedlight smiled brightly when Ambersun assured him that he still did well in catching his prey. He watched her put it behind her ear and his grin brightened further. The color really did suit her.
He hadn’t expected her to return the favor, but he purred when she came back with a flower of her own and placed it in a similar spot behind his ear. “How do I look?” he chuckled before she offered that they look at their reflections. He nodded and followed behind her. They can catch more prey on the way back. All work and no play made for quite the frustrated warrior.
They arrived at the creek and Crookedlight purred as he looked at them in the reflection. They really did look nice together, and the flowers complimented them well. “Very good, I think.”

Ambersun smiled. "You look amazing," she mewed, before leading him to the creek. The water was sparkling clear, allowing her to see her reflection perfectly. She could see her ginger ears with a gorgeous white flower perched right behind it. Giggling to herself, she gazed warmly at Crookedlight. With the flower she picked out, he seemed even handsomer than he already was, even if the flower Ambersun chose wasn't perfect.
With Crookedlight's comment, Ambersun agreed. "Yeah, I think so, too." The creek had some sort of... calming presence to it. She couldn't describe why, but she felt at ease here. Perhaps it was because of Crookedlight being with her. Just... someone she trusted, someone she cared about. She slowly rested her tail the black-and-white tom's, before turning up to him. "Y'know, Crookedlight, I really like spending time with you."

Crookedlight
Crookedlight turned his head to look at Ambersun directly instead of just her reflection. His ears straightened up and he smiled. His smile was a little goofier than the usual smooth one he wore on his face. “Oh yeah? I like spending time with you too, Ambersun. You’re a very lovely cat.” Crookedlight wasn’t terribly close with any of his clanmates, but he had spent a fair amount of time with Ambersun as of late. He always had a nice time with her. There wasn’t much expectations with the both of them. It felt easy.
