Unamused stare boring into Pokey's own hues, Sprucejumper remained unmoving as the tom proceeded to divide the patrol, sending the paw and warrior to catch as much as they could before turning his attention back to him. The mockery was plain in the deputy's voice the longer he spoke, but the former kittypet couldn't really claim to be too bothered. Compared to the more cutting, threatening jabs and bullying he had survived in his short lived solitary stint as a loner through twolegplace, this seemed almost friendly. Amicable. Certainly not enough to get mad at. Especially if the tom in question was too stupid to understand the word he'd spoken. The Boulder would have understood. Hmph.
Alright. So maybe he was a little more peeved by the whole situation than he cared to admit. Sue him. He'd been looking forward to some time out as a warrior. Falling into the usual traps that had haunted him during most of his apprenticeship before he had even started was bound to make anyone ticked. Thank the heavens Snotzilla didn't come around, come to think of it. This would have probably been grounds to have her mentor changed, no questions asked. Actually scratch that. In hindsight, not having to deal with an apprentice didn't sound so bad.
Whatever Pokey had tried to do to get him free seemed to have worked, and after one more pull, his paw was free. Free! Oh, glorious freedom! He would never take it for granted again! Especially after this partner situation they had going on to head out of camp. Although after this particular display, others might argue that it was perhaps more necessary than they cared to admit. Gratefully, he wasn't others, and he would still very much complain about it. Quietly. In his mind. When he was alone. Thank you very much. And... speaking of thanks...
"Gratitude," Sprucejumper stated emotionlessly, blinking once at the deputy before testing his paw on the ground, ensuring it wasn't sprained over such a pathetic accident.
Look. The chocolate point might be irritated about this whole thing, but he wasn't beyond accepting the fact that the calico had helped. And what was he if not modest, humble, and magnanimous to a fault when it came to having been offered assistance despite the price of ridicule it had carried? Oh yeah, he was definitely going to carry that annoyance for a bit. Still, no need to waste this opportunity. Twitching his ear, he gave a small nod before beginning his sprint once more, heading straight for the tree. He might not be the world's most dexterous cat when it came to soil, but place him among branches and he'll have more than a couple of critters ready to eat by the time this day was done. There would be a chance to redeem himself yet!

| Just clearing up that he hasn't left yet, he's just turned around to leave, so if Spiderthroat has further orders for him he will comply. If not, I'll be having him begin his hunt next post.
