Jaggedstream ambled into camp, his large frame taking its sweet time as he entered the clearing, a large collection of moss being carried between this jaws. Since there was a lack of apprentices, Jaggedstream had no issue taking up some of the duties, such as gathering moss for the elders. It was about time to change their bedding again, and the warrior had recently found a bountiful collection of soft moss this past newleaf. He'd make trips every now and then and bring home a sizable amount, which pleased the elders and their aching joints every time.
The gentle giant padded to the elder's den, greeting the few elders that MistClan had before offering to change their bedding, which he did without complaint. He stuck around for a bit, listening to either the mindless chatter or retelling of stories from the oldest of the clan - and there was no in between. After saying his goodbyes for now, Jaggedstream exited the den, the loud roar of the waterfall becoming more audible as he did so. Jaggedstream always did like the waterfall. It was loud, yes, but it was a constant, predictable noise. Calming, in a way. He smiled before opening his maw to release a yawn, his teeth glistening from the sunshine that managed to peek through into the cave. After, he exhaled, hearing his stomach beginning to growl.
The fresh-kill pile wasn't too far away - maybe a few foxlengths at most, but it definitely felt like less since the tom could take larger strides. And so, he turned his body and stepped off with his left paw, walking over in a relaxed gait, as if he didn't have a care in the world. He nodded to a few warriors that padded by as a greeting, not making too much effort to stop and chat. Most other warriors were busy with their own tasks, whether that be going on a patrol, caring for kits, or doing whatever other business they could come up with to avoid such chores. It was that time of day where the hustle and bustle of clan life was very apparent.
Jaggedstream finally arrived, fresh-kill arranged in a semi-cluttered pile in front of him. The green eyes of the warrior examined the prey on top, surely to be the freshest. After a few moments of uneventful pondering, the tom chose a squirrel, a little bit on the scrawny side, but still enough meat to satisfy his hunger. He didn't have much of an appetite anyway, even if his stomach was throwing a fit. Gently picking up the chosen prey in his jaws, Jaggedstream padded towards a less hectic side of camp, a little cozy spot in the corner. He noticed a few others already occupying the space. That didn't bother Jaggedstream, as the tom just shrugged it off. He didn't mind a little bit of company.
Approaching his destination, the large warrior chose a vacant section, sitting down and placing his squirrel on the dusty ground, taking a decent sized bite to start off his meal. Another followed, and then another. After the rumbling subsided, the warrior slowed a bit, not wanting to inhale the food. Instead, his green eyes eased up, seeing who else was enjoying the quiet corner of their home.
