Dimhazel's head swung to face Dovecloud, one of the most annoying cats they've had the displeasure to not truly meet. "In case you couldn't hear under all of the fuzz you seem to have for a brain, she only ever said to never raise our claws to Clanmates. If we're lucky, one day you will become free range for the violence you crave so dearly."
They turned and walked away from Dovecloud. She didn't need her ego to be fed anymore by paying attention to her drama and stupidity. Any retorts she wanted to throw at them would be ignored.
@AshCloud67
They sent a glare at Sandsmoke and Darkpetal, one of which already seemed to be walking away, tired of dealing with her already. "She's like a parasite, to get rid of her, you need to stop feeding it. And continuing to debate her will only make her keep going. Save your breath for better things, you're wasting your time trying to get her to see reason."
(This isn't open for further interaction, I just want 'hazel to be snappy at cats, reaction posts are A-OK though)
[Important edit: I wrote this without having known or read that Dovecloud was already exiled]
Darkpetal looked at Dimhazel and then at Dovecloud. “I guess that makes sense. She’s like a kit in the nursery. She’ll do anything for attention.” He concluded. @Rainquail @WillowBlows12

A nasty infection... Off your feet for a few days...
Eyes widened in horror at the concept of being stuck in camp with absolutely NOTHING to do. She was... She couldn't do that! Who would run patrols??? Who would help Cinderstar if she needed assistance??? What about the inter-clan meeting???
"There... There's gotta be some way I could still do my duties around camp," Sparrowflight stammered out, thoroughly embarrassed at the state she'd worked herself into. "I can't just lie about... Please at least tell me that I'll be back to normal? This won't effect my running right???"
Oh stars, the more she thought about it the worse she felt. As each of her paws were treated, sharp stabs of heat spiked up her legs and she regretably was starting to believe Sundust when he had stated she'd need to be stuck in a nest. If her paws were covered in goop and cobwebs she couldn't really walk without dislodging them...
A hefty sigh escaped her jaws, as her ears drooped down at this realization. Stars above, this was going to be boring...
Sundust's ear twitched as the deputy continued speaking. "It won't affect your running, but if, and only if, you stay off of your paws. As the medicine cat of ThunderClan, I hereby sentence you to one week of bedrest." The tom's whiskers twitched, mildly amused at Sparrowflight's despair. "I assure you, no one in ThunderClan is going to have an issue with you minding your health. If they do, they can take it up with me." The mentality warriors had about rest and TLC was frankly ridiculous. How could they keep protecting the clan if they were all hobbling around with infected paws and greencough?

"This is going to hurt," Sundust warned. He held the stick against the warrior's leg, and in one swift motion he pressed it back into the correct position. "Rosepaw, can you wrap the cobwebs while I hold the leg in place? Robinflight, go ahead and eat that poppy seed." The break seemed fairly clean, so hopefully it would heal well, but only time would tell.
[most of the other healings are fairly simple, but Rosepaw if free to hop in on any of them if she'd like!]
@Shade.
He let out a grunt, laying himself down completley. Normally, he would be awkward, stiff, sit up straight eyes straight to the wall. But today, for now? He was tired, his bones ached, and for some reason they still burned and sizzled.
"So nothin serious than?" he hummed.
Sundust took a step back to examine the wound he had patched up. "Yes, thankfully nothing serious. Unless there's some other serious ailment you're waiting to disclose until after we've run all out of herbs." The medicine cat was only half-joking - it seemed the warriors had impeccable timing when it came to hiding injuries and illnesses until after Sundust had run out of the herbs he needed. "If there's nothing else, then you're free to go, but take it easy for a couple of days."

FlareHowl slowly padded into the warriors den, Her pelt stuck up and kinked in all different directions along her spine and neck. The she-cats eyes said it all, She was exhausted and it showed. Constant Patrols and hunting trips weren't of any cats fault but her own. Since she became a warrior the molly would work herself constantly in order to distract her stressed mind from glazing back to past events.
Past events sure, but it didn't stop FlareHowl from reliving said events if she was left to her thoughts for too long.
The white and ginger tabby let out a soft grumble as she shook her body free of the brambles and burrs that lodged themselves into her thick coat. She flicked the last of the burrs free of her tails before she continued her way towards her nest and let herself just roll into it and immediately rolled around for a brief moment as a low purr escaped her maw as her aching muscles finally relaxed against the soft moss.
However no matter how long she laid there, to no surprise sleep never came. As frustrating as it was to the molly it did have a silver lining, no sleep meant no nightmares so it didnt seem all bad?
Robinflight saw the poppy seeds in front of him, he then heard sundust of the warning, he began to brace himself as he looked at his paws, laying felt weird in the med den, he thought in his mind, as he felt sundust put the stick on his leg he lowered his ears" ouch" he says feeling the pain, as he was in pain he heard sundust to tell him to eat the poppyseed, he bent his head and ate the poppyseed, he didn't like the taste but did it anyway, he began to think of his mate and snowkit and violetkit, and probably thunderblaze, his tail shaked with every pain stirring in his leg and wounds
@Naiad @Shade
As she shifted head as the leader spoke,she couldn’t help but wonder if that was really how long she has been gone. I had no clue I had left for that long! Excuse me,but where’s aspenstar? When I last left she was leader. She looked very confused at the she-cat. Thunder truly couldn’t grasp the concept of being gone for almost 2 moons. There was just no way in her mind. She left her self relax as she waited for a reply from Cinderstar.
@marni
(Sorry it’s so short,had to eat dinner :> )
Cinderstar
A pause lingered between the words Thunderchaser spoke and Cinderstar's answer. She was a little off-put by her side-stepping the question of where she had been, but for now she would answer the question posed to her. "Aspenstar died defending Shiningskies from a coyote - it took all of her nine lives. Dogbark was suppose to be our leader, until he disappeared as well. StarClan saw fit to return Aspenstar to us - as Aspenstrike. Recently, with still no sign from StarClan, the Clan voted for their new leadership. I am now ThunderClan's leader, and Sparrowflight was voted to be my deputy." Then there was the entire thing with ShadowClan, but since Dawnstar was gone and have removed herself, she figured that Thunderchaser, if accepted back into the fold, could catch up on that at a later time.
Shifting her weight on her paws, Cinderstar decided to ask her question again. "Where have you been for the last three seasons?"
The Siamese exhaled sharply in surprise as Cinderstar pulled her up into a hug, and it took a brief moment of assessing whether or not the leader was a mind reader before she wrapped her paws around the new leader and smiled lightly. Yeah, a hug was nice. Just like she knew it would be.
Once the embrace ended, and Cinderstar pulled away, with the foreign new name of hers drifting in the air between them. "I..." Maybe just for the sake of not making things weird (hey, I was there at my ceremony, I was just a ghost, you know) she smiled. While she hadn't seen her mother in StarClan, she had seen Rainypaw. She kind of already knew they were dead... The closure was nice. Now she didn't have to worry, because they were safe now. Safe and happy. "Thank you... It's perfect. I... I'm glad that's the name you chose for me... But would I be going back to Houndpaw now that I'm not... Like, dead anymore? Not that I want to, I just want to check." She hoped not. But maybe the only reason she was made a warrior was for clan morale. That would be priceless, you can only be a warrior if you're dead. she suppressed the urge to smack herself. Her inner voice really thought it was funny sometimes.
Cinderstar
The smile told Cinderstar everything she needed to know without Houndspirit having to say anything. Of course she had been there, watching over her Clanmates. Hearing that she was thankful for the name brought back a rim of tears and the spotted leader gave a nod. She had done so to honor Dogspirit, and to make it known that, even though her mother was dead, she was certain that Dogspirit was just as proud of her as Cinderstar was.
At her question, the leader was already shaking her head. "You earned your name the moment you stepped up to defend your Clan. Actually, the moment you and all of the other apprentices in ThunderClan stepped up to correct where the warriors had gotten it wrong. You will return to the Clan as Houndspirit." It was the easiest decision Cinderstar had ever made, eyes alight with hope and the glimmer of prosperity. "Which, speaking of, we can return if you would like? I am sure a certain new warrior would be so grateful to see you." Cinderstar knew that Bumblebreak would be overjoyed to see his sister alive again.
[ Done! I will move Houndspirit back onto the ThunderClan Allegiances ]

Cinderstar
Even more perplexing was the fact that she was pointing out another injury that Cinderstar had not seemed to notice before. "If it starts to bother you, make sure to have Sundust take a look. And remember to never go off without your mentor or another warrior - I am sure Meadowsplash is worried sick about you. Best to go let her know you have returned." And with that she gave a nod of her head to dismiss the apprentice.
[ Done! I will move Goldenpaw out of the missing and back under Meadowsplash as her apprentice ]
Fallowpaw guessed it was time to explain... This'll be hard. He knew that he was not supposed to venture into the outskirts. He wasn't even supposed to be in the territory alone without a warrior - that was the annoying part. Technically, Cindersky had every right to turn her back on him, "exiling" him from his home. "Er - I went out into the territory, to search for Muddyrose," the tom explained. "I thought she might be out there somewhere. I hadn't seen her in camp for quite a bit, so I considered she might want some alone time... I ventured too far. I was in the outskirts, and when I realized, I searched for the way back. I took a wrong turn and fell into a hole... I think it was made by twolegs."
"In the process I twisted my paw. I meant to return to ThunderClan earlier, as I managed to climb out of the hole. However, my paw got infected and I couldn't walk as quickly as I wanted to. Um, yeah. I think it's still infected." His ears twitched and he stared at the ground in shame.
"Even if you request for me to leave due to my foolish actions, may I ask if there's an update on ThunderClan and their leadership?"
Cinderstar
So that explained it. Muddyrose, if Cinderstar recalled correctly, had been one of the young cats mentors. It made sense that he had wanted to go searching for him. Time had gifted her the ability to know that warriors coming and going was nothing new - and difficult to change. But apprentices and younger cats... well, she could understand the hope for it to change regardless.
"While it was brave of you to go searching by yourself, it was also risky and very dangerous. There is a reason apprentices are not allowed outside of camp without a warrior present. I am sure you have been a witness to some of those dangers." A soft glance towards his infected paw, which would need to be looked at by Sundust.
Her ears perked at his question, and her gaze flickered to him once more. "Yes. There was a Clan meeting held, after we reclaimed Firefly Cove from RiverClan-" Cinderstar could not recall if the tom had been around for that being announced "-the Clan held a vote for new leadership. I was appointed leader, and Sparrowflight was appointed as deputy." With that out of the way, she shifted her weight on her paws, relaxing a bit. "I will do no such thing. All I ask is that you learn from this, and the next time if someone goes missing, you can let me or another warrior know, alright? Now let's go let Birchheart know you're back."
[ Fallowpaw is done! If you wanted to do a wrap-up post that's perfectly fine - I will be moving him out of the missing and back underneath Birchheart as his apprentice! ]

She would step back as she heard the news of the leaders. She wanted to speak but was filled with a feeling of fluster. I’m sorry for the former leaders. But you on the other hand, I’m happy for you! You always worked so hard. You deserve this. I congratulate you with all my heart. she paused to catch her breath and to answer the question she was given.I had family issues to work out. You see my brother hareleap.. she pulled her head down in shame. I just found out he was bad for me. He would always lie to me and probably gaslight me. I needed time to figure myself out after that. That mixed with the loss of Icicleripple,did a number on me. She would gasp for air as she continue. Time must have simply gotten away from me. I’m truly sorry! I didn’t mean to leave thunderclan for this long. she had a look or sorrow and shame. She was ashamed of herself,leaving thunderclan was the worst mistake of her life….
Maplekit sat in his nest which was mostly empty now seeing as he wasn't going to be there much longer.

Padding back into camp with as many herbs as they could carry, Shallowshiver quickly dropped them off before finding Moosecrash, "The patrol went well, we found plenty of the herbs you told us to search for"
It'd been a few days since Jaystride had received treatment for his injuries, and he was feeling a little more lively than before. Being cooped up in camp always made him restless, and he wanted to get back into the swing of things now that he wasn't at risk of collapsing again. (Probably.)
Exiting the den, his gaze swept over the clearing before it landed on a familiar pelt. Without missing a beat, he approached her and jerked his head toward the camp entrance. "Come."
And then he was off, starting toward the mouth of camp. Whether or not Apricotdream followed was not his concern, it was her loss if not.
