Haha, it's fun when you accidentally delete all of the page and have to redo the whole thing, right?

## Appearance and Personality

### Appearance

Sproutsong is a small, fluffy and friendly-looking tom with light brown tabby fur and a lighter undercoat. He has small, wide ears, a tuft of fur on his head, and a short, bushy tail. Scattered along his pelt are clovers, sprouts, and leaves, and his eyes are a nice green color.

### Personality

Sproutsong is friendly and accepting, and non-judgemental, but is somewhat mysterious. He can keep a secret, which is why he wanted to be messenger other than having something to do. He's not very subtle or good at talking, but he tries his best to fulfill his purpose.

## Backstory

### Kithood

Sprout and Soil were born to Hazelbright, a Fallclan warrior, and Jillian, a she-cat from Twolegplace. Jillian said she wanted nothing to do with the Clans, but she still wanted to be with Hazelbright. So to prevent Jillian's kits from being taken away, and to be with Jillian, Hazelbright dropped his kits off at Fallclan where they were renamed Sproutkit and Soilkit, and Hazelbright dropped his suffix and ran away to be with Jillian as Hazel.

Sproutkit and Soilkit weren't raised by a specific cat, everyone kinda raised the pair of brothers. They had fun throughout their kithood though.

### Apprenticeship

Sproutpaw was apprenticed to Pheasantfeather, a stoic but not very harsh mentor. She was very lenient and Sproutpaw got along with her okay.
Sproutpaw's apprenticeship was pretty normal, there's isn't much to say. He and his brother passed their warrior assessment.

### Warrior Life

Sproutsong and Soilspring were excited to be warriors, and after their vigil Soilspring suggested going out for a celebratory hunt. Sproutsong was hesitant because there were landslides occurring often, but Soilspring managed to convince Sproutsong to go and they went out.
They caught a few pieces of prey before a great rumble sounded out, and Soilspring was suddenly swallowed by a landslide. Sproutsong was shocked, and hurried back to camp to tell everyone what happened. Sproutsong was pretty sullen about it for a bit, but eventually got over it and convinced himself it wasn't his fault.

When he was twenty-eight moons, he saw that the position of messenger was open. He considered it, and thought it could be fun. He was good at keeping secrets, had a good memory, liked traveling and usually didn't have anything to do all day. So he applied for it became messenger, and he likes his position.

When he was 41 moons old, he encountered Goldthicket while going to deliver a message to HorizonClan. Goldthicket kept on following him and trying to be menacing but Sproutsong really didn't care and just thought he was annoying. So he insulted Goldthicket and he attacked him. Fun. Sproutsong got beaten up pretty badly but he tore out Goldthicket's eye, which made him very unahppy. Sproutsong ran away after that and basically collapsed near FallClan territory. Thankfully a warrior named Lagoonfrost found him and helped him to FallClan.

Sproutsong was taken to the medicine den and healed by Songskip, the MarshClan medicine cat who was retrieved by Lagoonfrost. He didn't remember much while being healed, because he was unconscious. But after he woke up he ended up talking to Lagoonfrost a bit. They started to feel a little weird about each other.

About, like, a moon or so? I think? Anyways, Sproutsong's all healed up mostly and the only thing that left a scar was the wound on his chest. He and Lagoonfrost chatted for a bit before going on a hunting patrol together, where they both proceeded to question their relationship a bit since both started to develop some feelings for each other. Some funky stuff happened while the pair tried to hunt and Sproutsong had to physically leave Lagoonfrost's presence to think straight.

Lagoonfrost found him a few minutes later thinking to himself and some *very* weird things ensued. Sproutsong randomly blurted out he had feelings for her and the two both felt weird about it, so they decided to wait to see where the relationship would go. Of course they still had feelings for each other, but, you know. Then they rested near each other for a bit and fell asleep. It was so. Cute.

One day the leader of FallClan instructed Sproutsong to warn the other Clans about Goldthicket and how he was lingering around the borders and attacking cats. Well, I guess he had only attacked Sproutsong so far but you get the gist.

Anyways, since FallClan didn't have a medicine cat, Sproutsong had to leave to MarshClan to get his herbs from Songskip. He went to their camp and couldn't really find the medicine den, but luckily Tawnythorn helped him to the medicine den where he got the herbs. Tawnythorn told him to say hi to his family (I think that's what he said if I remember correctly) and then Sproutsong left on his way.

Sproutsong found the young warrior Cometbriar hunting outside, and they chatted for a bit before Sproutsong invited him to go to HorizonClan with him, where he would deliver his news to Junglestar first. Cometbriar agreed and they went to HorizonClan, where Sproutsong proceeded to get intimidated by the leader Junglestar. He eventually finished delivering the message and went to go sit by Cometbriar, who was talking to his uncle Falconfeather.

He brought up the topic of Goldthicket while speaking of Junglestar and the message and both toms seemed uncomfortable, so Sproutsong tried to reassure them by saying he wasn't a really good fighter which kind of backfired. Falconfeather got a little more hostile than he meant to be, and apologized after, but Sproutsong decided it was probably time for him to go anyways. Cometbriar tagged along and they both went their separate ways after they left HorizonClan to go home.

The strand is still going so I'll update this when it's done :3

### Other Info

* Sproutsong originally had a lot more siblings the first time I wrote this but I figured it didn't make sense that Sproutsong and Soilspring were the only kits taken to Fallclan out of like, five kits.
* He was also planned originally to be really big and intimidating but I sided against it.
