Jay Frost

Water cascaded down the cave mouth. A gray tom watched it tumble past. It muffled the wind and softened the jagged peaks beyond, before disappearing far below into a rainbow of spray.

Cats moved behind him, hardly more than shadows in the dappled light of their cavern. Longing misted in the gray tom's eyes. Twisting back his ears, he listened to their murmuring.

"Stones in my nest!" An elder croaked irritably. "Always stones in my nest."

"I'll pick them out." Tiny paws skipped across the cave.

"Come back, Jay Frost," a queen called anxiously. "Your pads are too soft for sharp stones."

Yeah, so, being the narcissist I apparently am, I decided to draw the scene where the character named after me in Warriors appears. Look at the little baby Jay Frost! I'm actually pretty happy with how he (yeah, he was a tom in the book, unlike me) came out, I actually got a kit to look alright for once. And I'm really happy with Dewy Leaf's tortoiseshell markings, they came out really good. Gray Wing looks meh, but oh well. The background's actually pretty good. I kinda forgot it was supposed to be night, so it's a bit too bright outside the cave, but just imagine that it's moonlight. I like how the waterfall came out too, but I think the cave itself could've been a bit better.
