Shadow mewed, flicking her eyes as she pulled out a Marigold flower. I few petals fell from the stem. "This is marigold. I use it for infected wounds, and if a wound is severe enough I use it to prevent wounds. Just as a precaution. As you can see, this one is a little dried out. Usually I use them fresh." She finished, pawing it for the tom to see.
Shadow felt a shiver fall down her spine, sudden memories filled her head.
This cat seemed to have more potential than Ash. Her stubborn adopted kit had given up after a few days. Shadow flicked her ears, taking a small notice in the drafty walls. She flicked her tail, flexing her claws into the soft dirt.

Not exactly.. You mean I got it wrong? The young toms brows furrowed in frustration at himself, he was sure that he had gotten it positively right! As the leaf was pawed closer to him, he would lean his head down and take a deep drag at the scent. He knew exactly what it did, he could remember the words clearly, but the name of it.. That's what escaped him. He was at least sure it started with a 'b', but the rest escaped him. He didn't let it show though and tried to play it off as if he knew all along, snorting and lifting his head again.
"Oh pfft, I knew that Shadow! I mean, who doesn't know that that's a borage leaf, that's like the easiest one to remember!" Grinning again, the young cat hardly seemed phased that he had gotten the answer wrong, in fact, it looked like he thought he had even gotten it right. That his mentor had just congratulated him on remembering it correctly rather than her correcting him. Perhaps that's what went on in his head, but in reality he had gotten it wrong. "See I knew that!" Mewed Icarius excitedly as she verified that it did indeed help she-cats produce milk. Though it seemed he didn't have long to gloat before the she-cat was pulling something else out to teach him, marigold.
Tilting his head, he would lean his head down to examine the fallen petals, giving them a quick sniff before turning to the actual flower that it had fallen from.
"Marigold.. So it's used to stop infection... And to stop a wound from getting worse?" His gaze would curiously flicker to Shadow for a moment before fixing back on the somewhat dried flower. "Do you chew it up or something? Or just stick the whole flower into the cut. Yow that sounds like it would hurt!" His eyes widened as he imagined having a festering, infected cut only to have a flower shoved into it to make it better. Shaking his head in disbelief, he'd look to his trainer for an answer.
