s p i r i t u a l wintershadow | 2 of 5 | 194 words
He is by far not a spiritual type -- or maybe just not in the sense that he sometimes gleans from Wood Spider, as she invokes something that makes her poultices and charms and trinkets actually work. Wintershadow stands silent at the edge of the clearing, standing there in a stupid, helpless sort of silence as he watches her. There is something about her, he thinks; it has to be that she's a legendary. It does feel that there is something listening, like the swamp has condensed itself, like maybe he should expect to see the Crane, with a capital C, walk into the edges of his vision.
When he surprises himself by sighing -- an interminable amount of time has passed, lost to thought -- she is blinking at him. She has crossed the clearing, silently, to smile at him. He bristles for a split second before it turns to chagrin. "It doesn't work the same way for everyone, Wintershadow," she says, patiently (she is always, always patient). "I think you do just fine by wanting to believe."

7/26 - Walls - Hollyhock XV - 144 words (Murkcrow X, Wasp X, Dogrot V)
Babies...Hollyhock had come to dread the idea more and more. She would be trapped, trapped with Bristletail and a bunch of babies. Her babies. Bristletail was not like to let her go until they were grown. It would be months and more before he might even consider seeking out a zikwa. In the meantime, all she could do was suffer to coddle them, little babies more capable than she was, suffocating them even as her mother and her sister suffocated her, because there was nothing else she could do and she knew no other way to love...
Babies. Hollyhock would take the long and dreary days when she could at least leave at any time over the cage of family. And yet, there was an odd sort of joy there. She could not deny that she wanted to meet them, and love them.

k i s s wintershadow | 3 of 5 | 141 words
He can't think of the last time he'd spent time with anyone. The thought has eluded him for an entire day, a day full of mindless housekeeping that the Vale required. He'd gone weeding with Honey Trap and Sing Out, listening to the two does chatter about this and that, who had interest in who, who'd batted calf eyes at who, and had tuned it out: but the thought remained, around sundown. They'd asked him questions, too -- who had he kissed, or made moon eyes at, recently?
The thought is no one. He doesn't really have any interest. There's the occasional fantasy, sure; a song written about a dark-furred, dark-eyed buck; there is advice given to does about what to say to their paramours; there has been a lack of that in his own life, and he's fine with that.

It has been a long day spent in talks with Bird's Eye View about what to do about the Vale. The tribe is growing, their area expanded -- and in expanding, they'd come across a huge patch of briarthorn, with thorns big enough to pierce skin. It'd been nasty work, and even their biggest caretakers couldn't make anything of it. They'd called in the hunters, too, and none of them had made progress. Ends-the-Chase had come away with a deep scratch down his ribs and an even more belligerent attitude. But now night has come down, and everything is quiet; around him the slow, soft breathing of his tribe measures out the night. Some sleep paired off; some sleep underneath large bushes, or out in the open, and some stand watch at the perimeter. Wintershadow himself sleeps on a large pile of soft, freshly-plucked lamb's ear.
Sometimes being a leader has its perks.
