Well this was certainly... new. Rhinestonestar found himself snorting softly when Coconutpaw approach, somewhat satisfied by the shock present on the younger feline's face. The apprentice was so well known for being a pain that it was hard not to be satisfied when he was speechless, if only for a moment. Unfortunately, it didn't last long, as soon the male was making it clear just how much he appreciated the appearance of the beast. Sighing, Rhine said with flattened ears as he looked towards Coco, "Language, Coconutpaw." He doubted the boy would listen, given his prior history of not respecting the red flecked feline's authority in the slightest, but Rhinestone could at least try, right? It felt a bit silly to be lecturing the boy for language when the nameless reptile was standing in front of them with such unmatched power, but... it didn't seem as though he had come to hurt them. Rhine had to say that he was pretty damn surprised by that fact, but also grateful for it. After all, what were they to do if such a creature decided to attack them?

Wiping that unpleasant thought from his mind, Rhinestone listened intently to what the nameless being had to say, a slight frown coming to his face when Nameless confirmed that he... well, was, in fact, nameless. It seemed a sad existence, to be out there without a name to call your own. After all, even the youngest of those in Palmclan had a name to claim as their own, and that name evolved with them. To not have that sense of ceremony that so many of them enjoyed – and some took advantage of? It seemed baffling. Still, the feline nodded his head, his words coming out in a soft mutter as he sat in the sand, tail curling around his paws, "I... hm. That's strange. We'll need something to call you, but I guess that can come later..." Nameless hadn't even yet expressed his intention to join, and yet Rhine was still planning ahead. What was he supposed to do? Just assume that Nameless would grow bored and wander off? No, he had to assume that the reptile would be around for a while, and that meant a name.

Rhinestonestar's thoughts had already begun to drift off to potential names, when, as if on cue, Stormspine expressed his interest in joining. Truth be told, Rhine wasn't exactly sure about it. After all, they had only ever consisted of cats throughout their entire history, and this would be... a pretty massive shift from that. On the other paw, what was he supposed to do? Just tell Nameless no? The other didn't seem prone to violence, but Rhine certainly wasn't gonna take that chance, especially after the hurricane had already wiped so many of them out. Sighing, he nodded his head, sparing a glance towards Vixenvenom and Coco before he spoke, "I... I suppose that would be alright, provided you'd be willing to respect our ways, and learn from us. You aren't a feline, but... I suppose there's nothing truly making us say no." Tradition was something to consider, but he didn't specifically remember a rule from Starclan telling them that Palmclan could only have cats. Then again, he had never had a great relationship with Starclan, either.
