If plants could run, we would be their food.

They would have no mercy, no remorse. They'd become the dominant species, and we would worship at their feet. Or... Vines? Roots? Rootlegs?

with Rattlegale injured, Rootleg volunteers to take Bloompaw out for the day

I had a dream I was reading Sandstorm's novella

ok not necessarily reading it but I skimmed through the book & it was..well...

I remember Sandstorm was in the nursery, Millie was also in the nursery with two foster kits, & Darkstripe was trying to poison one of the kits ?? While reading it, I know it was going to be Sorrelkit, but that can't be (ignoring the mess of the timeline), the protag or whoever was talking to Sorrelpaw and like, they were watching Darkstripe I guess- he was near the nursery. Sorrelpaw also said something about her showing Darkstripe this herb, making it known to the reader he was going to use that herb to poison a kit

But like nobody was actively trying to stop him & iirc the protag was Bramble (not sure of his rank) and he was thinking how maybe the presence of the kits Millie adopted was strange

But my favorite part? Sorrelpaw wanted to do something about the kit thing but Bramble (or someone else) told her not too because Rootleg just recently dressed her injured leg

And as I'm reading that in the dream, I'm like...Who the fuck is Rootleg

And I go to the allegiances and...there is no Rootleg

But something that is there is the names of Millie's kits

Which were Masculinekit and Litterkit

Then i woke up
