she/her | riverclan medicine cat | 37 moons

The scarred tabby had had a pretty hard time sleeping. The medicine den still felt weird to her, like something she did belong in, but she couldn't quite make out how to settle down and start feeling at home. It was lonely, compared to the warrior's den and apprentice's den. Now she was finally asleep, dreaming about... oh gosh. There was blood, too much blood, claws, and the whole clan was relying on her saving that one cat... she felt like her one amber eye was about to tear open, and she was about to awaken from the dream, but suddenly she was somewhere else. She materialized on an odd, cold stone and could scent the seawater around her. As she glanced at the ocean a sense of dread overwhelmed her. It was so deep, so dark... if she fell in there, would she ever get out?

Wide-eyed, she finally let her one eye settle on the cat was here, staring at her. She felt like she recognized them but she could not quite make out who it was. "...Hello? Who are you? Why am I here?"

Well she showed up quicker than the last two. Once again, the sudden, loud, beating of a living cats heart felt defining, but after a few moments he got used to the noise. It was getting a lot easier to adjust to the sound compared to when he first called Tansypaw. He'd come to expect these questions by now, pretty much every cat he summoned asked the same three questions; who are you, where am I, and, why am I here. To be fair, he'd ask the same thing if he was them, it just gets boring answering the exact same questions over and over again. Perhaps he should try re-summoning a cat, that way he wouldn't have to repeat himself as often. "Mistyshard," he regarded her with a nod, "my name is Sootkit. I was born and died while you were an apprentice, so I don't blame you if you don't recall me." it felt odd speaking in such a casual tone. Its true he wouldn't blame her, it was a long time ago, and with everything going on there must be more important things on the new medicine cats mind than remembering old clanmates, however it would still be disappointing. If questioned, Sootkit would probably be able to remember 80% of Riverclans cats that have lived in the past eight seasons.

"Naturally, I'm here to help you." it seems like all clan cats he'd summoned assumed that immediately, probably because they had encountered the likes of Fawnlight, or some other former medicine cat, previously. Perhaps, Mistyshard hadn't been reached out to by Fawnlight yet. Weird, especially seening that Fawnlight actually supported, (or suggested?), that she should be the medicine cat. He didnt fully approve of the choice, but there werent many better candidates. Minkpaw was promising, but she was an apprentice. Last time Riverclan put that much pressure on an apprentice they ran away. Actually the last two times. Tansypaw and Stonepaw. Suppose he should reach out to Minkpaw, having disobedient or depressed apprentices running around could spell trouble for Riverclan. "I know a pawful of herbs, but they'll be useful nonetheless."

Ah, Sootkit. There was a faint hint of recognization in the herbalist's eyes. Sootkit had been alive during her apprenticeship, so this wasn't just any random cat teaching her herbs. A part of her wanted to ask what had caused the tomcat to die so young. He appeared to be helpful and sweet... why take such a young life? Why had she been brought back but not a deserving cat like this? Through all the qualms she had about coming back to life... maybe it made sense. She was medicine cat now, after all. The fact that StarClan would grant her another chance at life and allow her to serve in such an important position for her clan surely meant something.

Her attention snapped back to the tom when he said he was here to help her and teach her some herbs. That was good; she required all the assistance she could get due to being thrust into such a position with not too much experience. Mistyshard gave him a grateful dip of her head, then let her curious gaze meet the starry cat's again. Her head tipped and ears pricked with interest as she wondered what he would teach her. "Anything is helpful. Thank you for doing this, Sootkit," she purred.

And with that she forced all her wonders and worries to go away for a few moments, fully dedicating her attention to the herb lesson that would happen now. She really only knew the staple herbs and was inquisitive to find more about all the wonders of this plant world she now thrived in.

[ @Apollo. - So sorry about the delay, it won't happen again :heartbounce: ]
