Gathering for December 2011 (Last one of the year!)

Sleepystar looked up from his back. "Oh hello!" he smiled brightly. "How have you been?" he asked excitedly, mostly because he had been referred to as a friend.

Gravepaw proudly stumpled behind Stonestar. Then, when he left, she went to stand close to a... tree.

Badgerfang looked at Butterflywing with surprise, "Oh, everything is good. I have two kits," she purred, hoping that Butterflywing hadn't noticed how her back left leg stuck out weirdly, as she had broken it in a fight with a fox.

Hopeclaw followed her clan- rolling her eyes at their odd leader. She went up to Badgerfang and another cat she didn't know- it was a Windclan cat. "Hello." She greeted.

Willowpaw followed shyly. It was her first Gathering as a medicine cat apprentice, and she was nervous. Hopefully, she could spot the other medicine cats without too much trouble. She began weaving through the other cats, hoping to hear conversation about herbs, or perhaps patients.

Badgerfang turned her head to Hopeclaw, nodding. "Hey, Hopeclaw." she meowed, glancing quickly at Butterflywing. "Hopeclaw, this is Butterflywing. Butterflywing, this is Hopeclaw, one of my best friends in RiverClan."

"Nice to meet you." Hopeclaw said, nodding her head.

Moonfrost nodded to Shadowsong. "Alright. Well, I hope she gets better." She purred, then looked around for other cats she knew. She spotted Badgerfang, Hopeclaw, and Butterflywing together. She was about to pad over to them, but realized it would be rude.

Recognizing the deputy of RiverClan nearby, she wanted to know more about the deputies of the forest. "Greetings," snarled a black she-cat creeping from behind.

Gracepaw crouched near her tree, since she can't climb yet. Then she waited and sprung next to a random cat.

Sootshadow padded into the fourtrees behind Stonestar. She glanced around to try and find some one to talk to but she decided to sit alone. She walked over to an empty space and sat down.

Moonfrost looked a little surprised, but merely dipped her head. "Greetings." She meowed back, not knowing what else she should say.

"congratulations badgerfang, and nice meaning you hope claw" she purred

Tawnypaw padded into Fourtrees and looked around the clearing.She hoped this would be her last gathering as an apprentice.

"I've been well. I trust you have a reason for smelling like dirt?"
She joked lightly.
