Muddypaw felt her face suddenly heat up. Wuh oh... she hadn't had her proper hunting training yet... Starclan, she couldn't be the best warrior being sent on a patrol and not being able to catch anything! She better say something!
Approaching Hawkbite, she had an odd nervousness and embarrassment in her expression and movement, especially unusual for the very hyper and optimistic apprentice. "Hey, uh, you said you'd take whoever's more inexperienced? I uh don't know too much about hunting yet..." She mewed, a nervous smile on her face. Through her embarrassment, at least she could admit she didn't know, saved her quite a lot of trouble.

hawkbite left quickly which was pretty much exactly what rookfire wanted, waiting around for the other patrol members was torture most of the time and it also sort of stressed him out if he was being honest with himself for once. the evergreen grotto was a place the former enforcer would call familiar, so in addition to his general inability to read peoples expression and make anything out of it, he had no clue the enforcer commander himself wasnt nearly as experienced around here. shaking moisture out of his pelt, rookfire slowed to a trot before coming to a halt to hawkbites left.
"i wouldn' mind teachin' either" he added briskly, letting his cool gaze move from the older tom to muddypaw and darkpaw before catching the brown mollies eye, considering words of reassurance for a moment before coming to the conclusion that he genuinely could not care less. hunting wasnt hard, she'd get the hang of it even if rookfire said nothing to make her feel better. and if she didnt. well, not his issue either.
he resisted the urge to step from paw to paw to get some relief from the cool ground and express his impatience, remaining unmoving besides the eventual flick of his ear or twitch of his tail, watching the air he exhaled whisp up like fog.

Well, the Commander wasn't going to wait on Darkpaw forever. He turned his head towards Rookfire, who offered, but then looked back towards Muddypaw with a flick of his ears. "Keep an eye out for Darkpaw. If they show up, take them with you, Rookfire. You can get started on hunting, I'll do a quick lesson with Muddypaw. Hopefully we can bring some prey back. Leaf-bare gets rough about that," the last part was mostly to himself. He'd flick his tail to dismiss Rookfire, casting a last glance towards the direction of camp hoping to see Darkpaw catching up before leading Muddypaw away.

"Alright Muddypaw. The first step to being a good hunter is the crouch. You want to get down low to the ground, keeping your belly fur and tail just lifted enough not to drag against the grass and leaves. You want to keep your weight distributed on your paws evenly so you're not putting more weight on your front or back legs," Hawkbite began the brief lesson, demonstrating his hunting crouch and waiting for Muddypaw to give it a try next.
