[since fish is on a hiatus, i have sought out perms from dino to skip over lightningpaw and let fish know o7]

Leafstorm watched Sunstreak rip the tansy from the ground, whiskers twitching. She gave the tom a withering look. ''Wolfhawk would prefer his herbs intact, don't ya think?'' she pointed out, gesturing to the now-damaged leaves and flowers he held between his jaws as well as the ones sticking out of the ground. Shaking her head, the golden-brown she-cat sighed and padded over to another patch of tansy, which was fully intact.

[Leafstorm rolled a 17 on a D20 for harvest. Harvest Successful!]
[Leafstorm rolled a 20 on a D20 for condition. Tansy Intact!]

Leafstorm bent her head to gently nip off a few of the stems from the plant, her ears twitching with pride once she had successfully collected a couple of them without damage.
|---> [+2 Tansy]

The warrior followed Smokepaw over to a patch of comfrey, her golden hues narrowing. There were still new springs of the leaves growing---Leafstorm could see them. But before she could get a word in edgewise, the apprentice was already nipping away a few of the new leaves, and quite carelessly, too, from what the golden-brown ThunderClanner could tell. She sighed and set down her tansy to speak to the two.

''You both need to be more careful harvesting the herbs,'' Leafstorm meowed firmly, her gaze flicking from Sunstreak to Smokepaw and back again. ''Herbs are delicate, and I'm sure that Wolfhawk and Hollowpaw would appreciate it if you were to be gentler while harvesting, and that you didn't take the new growth so that there's still some of the plant left for later harvests. Sunstreak, you practically destroyed that patch of tansy. What are our medicine cats going to think when they hear about that?''

She shook her head, leaning forward to collect some comfrey off the bush beside the one Smokepaw had pointed out. ''Be more careful. It's not much that I'm asking of you.''

[Leafstorm rolled a 19 on a D20 for harvest. Harvest Successful!]
[Leafstorm rolled an 18 on a D20 for condition. Comfrey Intact!]

The she-cat gently nipped away a few of the older leaves of her patch, her whiskers twitching with satisfaction. Her harvests were undamaged.
|---> [+2 Comfrey]

''We should head back,'' Leafstorm mewed, retrieving her tansy and starting back towards camp.

Acornfall purred with pride at how Emberpaw has filled out. He could tell the kid was working hard. But he wasn't quite a match for Acorn yet! The brown tabby was warmed by Ember's question, and he couldn't help purring before pulling his apprentice in with one arm before playfully scruffling the timid tom's head with his other paw. "O'course ya can kid!" He chirped happily, letting Emberpaw go. "Tell ya what, let's talk about it on the way! I gotta idea!" He meowed with a big, goofy grin before starting to head to their destination. He knew Wolfhawk was technically the leader of the patrol here, so jovial ole Acornfall - Sir No Boundaries - gave the medic a gentle nudge.

"Let's get on then!" The broad-shouldered tom chirped. As they walked to Cattail Pond, Acornfall beamed at Emberpaw. "'Kay so, I've been thinking about doing a training activity with the kittos. Does that sound like something you'd wanna help with?" He asked, his eyes shining excitedly.

Acornfall purred loudly in response, giving the young cat a gentle and friendly bump with his shoulder. "Perfect!" He purred. "Now let's get those herbs! Comfrey and dandelion, alright?" He mewed, looking around for Wolfhawk, the patrol leader. Had they moved along too quickly? I hope he didn't fall or something... But he couldn't go back for Wolfhawk and abandon the patrol, not to mention he didn't think the young medic would appreciate being treated like he was incapable. So he gave Embs a nod. "Stay close okay, kid?" He mewed, flicking his tail to signal for him to start his search.

-d20: rolled 14-

Nothing here.

-d20: rolled 20!-

Here! He noticed some purple flower and upon further inspection, they looked like the plan Hollowpaw had described. "Hey! Embs!" He called, waving his tail to get the -paws' attention. "Here's a good bit o' comfrey!" He started to carefully dig around the base of the plant. Hollowpaw said he needed roots and leaves. Might as well get the roots. He flicked his tail to summon Emberpaw to his side, no use in wasting the plant. He uprooted the stems attached to the roots he gathered, setting the stems aside from Emberpaw.

+3 comfrey roots

"Grab some leaves from these stems of plant, Hollows said he needed both." He instructed, gathering his roots together. Now for the dandelion. Should be easy enough to spot. He carefully lifted his roots, eyes searching the flowers that Hollowpaw had described.

-d20: rolled 6-

Nada. Onward.

-d20: rolled 18!-

There! Acornfall found another decent growth of dandelion, but he didn't alert Emberpaw to this one. He didn't want to take too much from the same plant, didn't want to risk killing it. He set his comfrey roots down and carefully plucked leaves by nimbly chewing at the base of a couple leaves. This will be good.

+2 dandelion leaves

Acornfall carefully gathered his roots and leaves with a paw, looking up for Emberpaw. "Hey Emberpaw! How's it going?" He called, checking in on how his apprentice was doing. He kept his senses alert in case Wolfhawk showed up too, he didn't want to return without the medic if he didn't have to...but Hollowpaw needed these herbs too... What a dilemma.

total: +3 comfrey roots, +2 dandelion leaves

[OOC: Not trying to skip people! :quivering: Just want to try and wrap this up.]

@Beaan - Wolfhawk // @_Nacht_Mango-_- - Emberpaw

Acornfall wasn't sure where Wolfhawk had gotten off to, but they needed to head back now. He flicked an ear, trying to mask his concern. Ems helped with that. The brown tabby burst into a fit of laughter at the -paw's question. "HAH! Just 'cause it makes you sneeze doesn't mean it makes ya sick, silly." He meowed boisterously, giving the apprentice a gentle nudge with his shoulder. "C'mon, let's head back." He mewed, picking up his herbs. "Maybe we'll run into Wolfhawk on the way back..." Hopefully. He didn't want to be known as the warrior who lost the medicine cat.
