He played around waiting for Ivory who promised. PROMISED. to come today to teach him how to pounce. Though he would much rather spend his time with Otter, watching flowers and playing in the grass. He would learn how to pounce AT LEAST... and swim. He was a shark after all. He would get good at water hunting, and water battle. He puffed out his chest as he waited, and waited... He flicked his tail slightly annoyed it was taking the other longer. He pursed his lips.

@Moondapple

Whiwsperkit padded into the den. (Looks for her is on my profile it is a link someone made in my messages on there.) She noticed another kit waiting in the nursery. Seeming a bit shy, she padded up to the kitl. Her pretty fur shined from a fresh grooming. "H-hello..." SHe mewed shyly.

Berrypaw smiled again; she'd love nothing more than to go in with Aspenkit to see the look on Mistyshard's face, but it didn't strike her as the best time with Grimpaw in there.

"Sorry, but we've got a patient in there — and he needs to rest," she explained gently. "And it can get sorta crowded with too many cats in there — even for kits like you." She paused, knowing she didn't have much room to talk — despite being a handful of moons older than him, she was still small in frame and stature. Not as small as a kit, but certainly a small apprentice.

Then he asked... if they ate them? She tilted her head. "Well... sometimes we do," she mused honestly, thinking about the bitter-tasting herbs they'd sometimes prescribe. "It depends on who needs them and why—"

Then the little kit gasped, pledging to bring them more leaves. Berrypaw was all the more confused until the pieces clicked together. "Oh... oh, we don't eat them like that!" She clarified, a purr of amusement behind her voice. "Cats couldn't survive off leaves, y'know," she added playfully. "Even as... leaf-cats — or medicine cats, as the Clan calls us — we still need to eat our prey like you do. And don't worry, Mistyshard and I aren't sick; we just live in there, that's all. Makes it easier to be next to everything — and all the leaves — that we need. Just like how you sleep in the nursery with the kits, and apprentices in the apprentices' den, and so on!"

The thought of that made Berrypaw pause for a moment. She was glad Mistyshard was there — she imagined it would get quite lonely on her own, sleeping in the den all by herself. Even if she hadn't been that close with the other apprentices, it had still been nice to be with a group when she was in warrior training.

Is that how Fadingsun feels? She wondered briefly.

Ok that made sense, aspenkit thought. He still had a few questions though, and he was more than willing to keep bugging berrypaw until she had literally leave to make him stop. "what's that word mean?" he asked confused. He knew of leaders, what kit didn't but he didn't know what a leaf cat- med um medisin? cat was.

"what's a medi- meedic- medisin cat?" he asked as he butchered the word trying to pronounce it. Big words were hard, he thought pouting slightly. "and what do they do, are the like leaders? Is that why they get their own dens?" he asked glancing at the medicine cats den curiously. "and if you don't eat the leaves what are they for?" ok now the questions were starting to bubble out of him. Soon he would be flooding berrypaw with all sorts of questions about medicine cats, it was only a matter of minutes. He was a curious kit after all and didn't quite understand that sometimes cats didn't have all day to speak to him

Berrypaw was still entertained; if she were an ordinary warrior or apprentice, she might've told the kit to go bother someone else with all his questions. But to the young medicine cat apprentice, this was a lot nicer than either going back to her injured patient or to her own thoughts, consistently worried over RiverClan's fate. After that last Gathering...

She smiled down at Aspenkit, settling herself comfortably to answer all his rambling questions. She'd been curious like that too, only a few moons ago now. Whatever happened these last few moons... she already felt like she grew up some, but with still a whole lot more to go.

"One question at a time!" She urged lightheartedly, her eyes glittering with humor rather than impatience. "Medicine is... stuff that makes you feel better when you're sick, or helps heal you when you're injured," she explained. "Sometimes that stuff to heal you is found in plants — like certain types of leaves! So that's why we collect them, to use for those who need it the most." She nodded at the kit as she added, "So, since I'm training to learn about this medicine and be the designated healer for the Clan... they call me the 'medicine cat'. Well, I'm really an apprentice, and I've only been training for a few days now — Mistyshard's the real medicine cat."

Caveclaw-She/They

-------------

Caveclaw started to exit the clearing, she needed to get the cobweb soon before could forget. The other two who had to get it had probably already left, but she would probably need a helping paw to get as much as possible. She looked around for a cat to help.

She stretched out, kicking her paws slightly upwards. Hunting had felt good, all her anger taken out on it, and visiting Twig was good. Though the elders was a bit grumpy at times, he had been like a father to her since she was just a kit, so it was nice to visit from time to time, and she knew he appreciated the prey. Maybe she would call for an apprentice to bring him some moss sometime, remembering he complained about the moss being old. She shuttered at the idea of having to take it out, she had, a few times, but only ever as an apprentice. The idea of doing it now felt… wrong. Considering that it was labeled under things apprentices did before being named a warrior.

She tilted her head up slightly, her stomach still growling. She hadn’t gotten a piece of prey in a while, and the hunting earlier was for her. She growled lightly at herself. One of the big preys she had given to Twig, the others were probably also eaten by now. A sigh now, she would have to go out, yet again, later.

Caveclaw-She/They

-------------

Caveclaw saw Stormcreek. She hadn't spoken to the other cat much, but they seemed like they might go with her.
She quietly approached Stormcreek "Hello, Stormcreek, correct?" They said "Would you mind assisting me with something outside of camp?"
Caveclaw's face was hard to read, she always wore a deadpan expression.

She growled lightly. "Fine, as long as I get to eat after this," she muttered, tilting her head as she followed the other molly. She was a bit older but Storm recognized her, Caveclaw. They had never talked but they had crossed paths before, both usually busy. Not busy with anything important really-- In fact, Storm hadn't been on a real patrol in ages. She simply called it a patrol and picked a few people to come along. She flicked her tail upwards as they walked, keeping it away from her legs so it didn't trip her. The other cat seemed to be just as quiet, she flicked her ear, annoyed. "So, what are we out here for?" Storm questioned, lifting her head slightly to face the other cat as they walked, still keeping an eye on the ground ahead of her. She wasn't about to fall or run into something just to face the other warrior.

healing cats? That was cool! "since you and Mistyshard are the only medicine cats that makes you guys important!" he said reasoning it out with himself. Since warriors had to fight for their clan that meant Mistyshard and berrypaw would just heal them and keep them able to continue being warriors. "so if I get hurt you or Mistyshard will make me better? Then I can get hurt again and it won't matter" he gasped. That was great! Now he didn't have to worry about dying because there were medicine cats that could just fix it!

"do the other clans have medicine cats? Also I've seen cats that say they've come back from the dead like that pebble something cat. Did you and Mistyshard bring her back because you're medicine cats?" he asked curiously. He now sat in awe staring at berrypaw as if she were a Starclan cat sitting infront of him, infact she might as well be one since he had no idea what Starclan was. "can medicine cats fight- oh sorry one question at a time. Forgot" he apologized and decided to leave the rest of his questions until she was finished answering his first ones.
