((( For anyone who does not celebrate Thanksgiving, we are using this American holiday as an event in our Clan in which we give thanks to Starclan at a special gathering. We will begin with preparation, being generous for our food, deputy, and leader, preparing the freshkill pile for a feast at the gathering, etc., and end sometime toward the end of the month with the gathering itself.
I will begin. If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas do feel free to share them. ^^ )))

The winds of leaffall whispered gently across the mountains, tickling the small tuffts of grass caught in the jagged rocks. A calming aura coated the clan camp. It was the time of Thanks Giving and the entire camp was bathed in nature's excitment as the gathering drew nearer.
Silverclaw gazed around camp, more lighthearted with the moon's comming, despite the cool weather. She was eager to see the Clan prepare for the gathering as it was her favorite part. Wistfully, she gazed up toward the sky and watched as the light clouds drifted by.

(((Sorry it took me so long. xD I really wanted to get a good start and, of course, I had a brainblock. Thanks so much, oh Wonderful Lightfur. ^^ You too, Pumaclaw. It makes me feel all fuzzy inside.<3 )))

((Yay! Thanksgiving! Oh, Honorable Silverclaw!!))
Bluesky yawned and uncurled slowly. She stretched out her slightly stiff muscles, and padded out of the den. As the branches of the Warriors' den swung back in place behind her, she reveled at the beauty of the leaf-fall sunset. She spotted Silverclaw and trotted over to join her. Another yawn escaped her jaws and she clamped her mouth shut on it tightly. She then inclined her head to Silverclaw and mewed quietly, so as not to break the spell that seemed to be holding the forest fragilely. "StarClan have blessed the forest this Thanksgiving, it would seem."

OoC: Er… Bluesky… ^^ I'm reasonably sure that Silverclaw established the time as evening? With 'the moon's coming", and all. x3 So you may want to edit the morning bit.
BiC: Lighfur's ears pricked forward at the sound of a voice. Bluesky, she decided, trotting towards the sound. Preparation for the time of Thanks to Starclan always made plenty of work for everyone, and she'd been quite busy lately, although with such marvelous ClanMates the deputy's duties were much lighter than they would have been otherwise.
The pale-furred she-cat's green eyes quickly picked out Bluesky and Silverclaw. She padded over to them, and purred a glad greeting. "Excited about Thanks Giving?" she queried, happy to have some time to talk to her friends. Of course, Lightfyr herself was hugely enthusiastic about the entire gathering and ceremony. It would be a marvelous thing, even more so this year than it always was. She was sure of it, deep inside, and it showed in the glow of her eyes and the lightness of her step.

((Whoopsie, thought I already changed it. ^^;  ) Bluesky nodded enthusiastically. "Sure am! Bet this one will be amazing!" She then turned an excited circle, feeling energy flowing through her body. She clawed up a couple tufts of grass and stretched her front paws. "Ahh!"She exclaimed, delighted. "I feel like an apprentice again!" And she danced a couple steps to the side and did a roll over. She got up, she the dust out of her fur, and grinned at the others. |

((Shadefoot shall join in too :3))
Shadefoot opened one eye, his amber eye, at the sound of voices. He yawned, stretching slightly. Slowly, he stood, then sat down, and licked one of his smoky black paws, and drew it over his ear, then giving his chest a couple of licks. At once, he stood again then padded out of the den.
He slowly padded over to the three cats he saw, Silverclaw, Bluesky and Lightfur. "Hello, Bluesky" He mewed, nodding to her then turning to the other two cats. "And to you, too. Talking about Thanksgiving, I'm guessing?"

((I'm pretty sure it's Thanksgiving, not Thanks Giving, or else maybe all the calenders I've ever had are wrong...?))
"Yup! Sure are!", Bluesky bounced up and down excitedly. Then she stopped as a great idea hit her. "I know! Why don't we decorate the camp? We could string up Rosemary and use some safe berry juices to paint sticks and weave them into the wall! And we could make a huge arch above the gorse tunnel, with a bunch of fragrant herbs. And weave more into the sides of the den, so they would smell wonderful!" She had been turning to all the places she spoke of as she named them, and now her paws were all tangled up. She fell on the ground with a grunt, then picked herself up with an excited spin. She grinned widely at her clanmates.

Willowkit hopped around in circles at the entrance to the nursery. She had just three days ago opened her eyes, and she had eagerly taken in the beautiful Earth since then. Since then, she was allowed minimal amounts of fresh-kill and was slowly growing away from milk. Her mother had told her about Thanksgiving, and Willowkit had been very exited about the Clan's yearly gathering to celebrate. Her first Thanksgiving! Willowkit's heart leaped at the very mention of the word.
Her warm gray eyes wandered the clearing for a moment, and she caught sight of three she-cats and a tom discussing the occassion. She padded over and started rubbing her silver tabby-marked fur against their ankles. "Can I help you with it, Bluesky?" She asked in a tiny voice, "Please?" The gray eyes looked hopefully at the she-cat.

Silverclaw retreated from her reverie, noticing the group of cats gathering around to speak of the holiday's festivities soon to come. She looked at each cat with glazed eyes and mewed softly "Hello, everyone. I seem to have lost myself." She shifted a bit, embarrassed for not noticing them sooner. "It is a blessed time, thank Starclan. And an exciting time, too," she looked to Bluesky, an amusing glint in her eyes, "It does bring out a younger side in all of us, though we each show it differnt ways." She purred affectionately at the warrior.
"I do like those ideas, Bluesky! It sounds like so much fun and every cat could participate." She turned toward Lightfur and mewed, "What do you think, Lightfur? Would Wildstar allow such lighthearted fun in the camp?" The amused glint that lit her eyes grew to a gleam and Silverclaw's inner kit began to emerge.
(((Sorry I haven't been on lately. I've been to a lot of concerts and lectures on Classical music. x3 Oh, and when I put "Thanks Giving" I was trying to make into Warriors terms. Does that make sense? You know, like leaffall and the others?)))

((Oh, alrighty. ^^))
Bluesky purred at Willowkit. She picked up her paw and patted Willowkit's head softly. "Well, we'll see about that!" Then she turned to Wildstar. "Well, what do you think? It would be great fun for the whole clan! And it would look and smell wonderful!" A smile crept over her face. "StarClan knows we could use a couple air sweeteners in the Warrior's den!" She purred loudly and bounced up and down excitedly, anxious to be speeding through the forest once again, the lovely music of the birds filling her ears, the soft undergrowth, springy at her feet, propelling her forward, and the sharp smell of the fresh grass and leaves. And the autumn leaves, oh how she loved the Autumn leaves! Falling like rain around her, and lacing the ground for a beautiful affect!

OoC: *cough* Bluesky… Wildstar isn't… er… there yet. 'Twould be hard to turn to her. ^^ Ah, well, I'll have Lightfur answer anyhow.
BiC: Lightfur purred, amused, at the eager warriors and kit. "Since the Clan is fed… Very well fed!" She glanced towards the large mound of fresh-kill that had been caught for the feast of Thanks Giving that had been set for the next day. "And the patrols for the day are done… There's a bit of light left, as long as it's done quickly, I believe Wildstar wouldn't mind." Her ears flicked slightly, betraying the excitement she felt. "Willowkit, if you want to help, remember that you need to stay inside the camp, and follow any instructions, all right?" She turned her gaze on the little cat, thinking that she'd made a great warrior one day, always happy to try and make things better for the Clan.
