midnightsun trotted after mudslide, keeping to himself in respect to the overall bitey approach the enforcer seemed to take to any and all duties. getting snapped at by the shiney elites newest member surely wouldnt be a good look. once they arrived at their destination, mudslide made quick work of seperating him from the apprentice and just going off in their own direction, leaving the chimera tom to his own. what were they even supposed to look for again? seemed like the cold had stumbled more than just his mismatched paws. the memory returned quickly and with ease though, focussing on chickweed for now.
what had sleepysunrise said? sprawling plant or something like that. probably. whisker brows furrowed in concentration while his pale tongue poked out from beneath mismatched fur and the tom closely eyed the ground before him. nothing nothing and more nothing for a good while. every once in a while pausing to crane his neck, trying to catch a glance of mudslides pale fur, it was convenient how large the she cat was. easy to spot for sure.

once he actually came across some plants he suspected were chickweed it started off promising. a sturdy web of thin stalks relatively easy to tear from the frozen ground. that had been deceiving to the highest degree and midnightsun quietly cursed to himself as the following two attempts ended in crumbling herbs.

Following Mudslide and Midnightsun to Evergreen Grotto, Nightpaw looked around the unfamiliar place. If he had been here before, he didn’t remember it. Although he was about to go off on his own again looking for this the enforcer's command, Nightpaw followed along beside her. As Mudslide picked up this 'chickweed' plant, Nightpaw watched carefully to know what he was looking for. Picking up the scent, he started looking for some nearby.

[Nightpaw rolls 15!]

Coming across a few, he picked four of them out, although one of them didn’t seem to be in the best condition, so he reckoned Sleepysunrise wouldn’t want it. Taking the three he had managed to find, he turned to Mudslide once again. "Uhh…what's the other herb again?"

Marbled ears turned towards Nightpaw, maw filled with stalks of chickweed. "Marigold." She said gruffly, quiet mew muffled by the herbs in her jaw. Speaking of, she should probably start to snag that herself. Icy gaze flicked to whatever herbs Nightpaw was carrying, offering him a light nod before trotting off. The sooner she got out of the cold, the happier she'd be.

Her gaze searched for Midnightsun as she glanced over her shoulder, and once she found him, her look was nothing more than acknowledging. She would've preferred if Nightpaw followed her, but she honestly wouldn't have carried if he didn't.

Since marigolds were bright they weren't exactly hard to find, even if they were powdered in snow, orange was bright and attention grabbing like the wings of a monarch butterfly. Multicoloured paws paused at a stalk. She couldn't help but think it odd, seeing how flowers tended to be bright and inviting. She was sure they had a predator of some kind that was attracted by their scents and hues, wouldn't such bright saturation be a blunder to them?

Maybe she was thinking too hard about it...

[mudslide rolled an 18! slightly damaged...]

She'd have to admit, it was unwise of her grabbing a nearly wilted flower. She wasn't exactly sure what marigold was used for, but she doubted they'd miss a couple of petals.

[+1 marigold]

The spotted warrior clung to shadow like a second pelt. She would've been undetectable if it wasn't for the crunch of snow underneath her paws, but she wasn't hunting at the moment, or trying to sneak up on plants of all things. After more searching than she would've liked, another plume of orange yellows cornered her vision and she paused. Mudslide shook the snow off her paws before beelining towards the herb. She only had so much space left, so she'd better make this count.

[mudslide rolled a 14! slightly damaged...]

Yup, same issue. As she plucked up the plant, some petals fell with the sudden jerk. Oh well, probably wasn't an issue. Mudslide then turned to the rest of the group. She wasn't sure about everycat else, but she was done here and ready to get her cold tail home.
