Goosefall nods to him "Yes well shall we get going? It was nice to see you're doing well Beetleshade. It's also good to see Tawnykit is doing well." Goosefall stands, stumbling only slightly. She turns her attention to Otterpaw. It's good to see the young apprentice is also doing well. She reviews who is there and gives them all a small look over. All look healthy. She then turns her attention to the camp entrance.
........
Otterpaw listens intently to the warrior and medicine cats conversation. How cool is that? Dewpaw gets to go run around the flooded willows. She had to admit, she was a little jealous. "You're all good Eagleblaze!" Otterpaw shifts and looks toward Tawnykit. She smiles. Kits are just so happy and warm, it makes Otterpaw happy.

Otterpaw nods silently. "Indeed. He's a good warrior." she nods. Otterpaw turns to tawnykit fully and watches her play along "Hello Tawynkit!" she speaks to the kit. Otterpaw loves kits. They are all just full of energy and excitement. Not to mention they don't have to do chores. However, they can't leave camp.
......
Goosefall exits the camp and stops just a few steps ahead of the entrance to wait on Dewpaw and Eagleblaze. It's nice to have some help getting herbs. Not only will they be there if Hollowclan shows up but they will also be there to help carry the herbs. Which is something she typically has to do alone.

So, until Kana gets on we can have them gather and explore the Flooded Willows, if that works for you guys?)

Tawnykit stumbled to a stop beside Otterpaw. She didn't know the apprentice too well, but she'd brought food to her and Beetleshade before, and Beetleshade had been talking to her, so she couldn't be that bad. "Hiya, Otterpaw!" She mewed cheerfully.
~~~~~~
Eagleblaze quickly caught up with Goosefall, dropping onto his rear a little way away from her. "So, are we just going to go to the Flooded Willows, or anywhere else, too?" He asked, tilting his head to one side slightly. "If we're going anywhere else, we'll have to plan a route."
(Sure!)

Otterpaw smiles "Hello! Whatcha doing?" she cheerfully questioned the kit. She doesnt expect tawnykit to rememebr her at all. She was named an apprentice soon after the kit was born so it made plenty sense. The she-cat lays down to sit eye to eye with her.
.......
Goosefall thinks it over for a moment "We could stop by another area if you two have any suggestions. I was really only planning on grabbing some herbs from the Flooded Willows though." she medicine cat replied, turning to Eagleblaze and tilting her head as to question if he had an idea of where else they might travel. "We could search for some old cobwebs if we wanted too I suppose."

"Hmm, I have nothing in mind." Dewpaw replied, listening to them but turning his gaze to the forest around them. There was a light rain falling down from the sky and if they were efficient perhaps they could get back before it started in earnest. Though the light cloud covered suggested that it might simply be lighter rain today.

Goosefall ponders that for a moment "I don't believe I've ever tried to do that. But I would think the ground might make them unhealthy." mainly the ones you're supposed to eat. She knows that personally, she doesn't want to eat the ground her paws and others paws have stood on. The medicine cat stands and begins to make her way towards the Flooded Willows, following scents and her memory.
.....
Otterpaw nods "Well, do you need any help? I know you're probably fully capable of catching insects on your own but just in case, I could aid you if you'd like!" she smiles to Tawnykit. Otterpaw wouldn't typically play around and catch beetles in her own free time but to make sure Tawnykit isn't feeling so alone in the nursery and since she hasn't done it in awhile Otterpaw is thinking why not. "I'm very sure your Beetleshade and Eagleblaze will love them too."

Dewpaw had never thought of that before. Though as Goosefall spoke he could also see that they would wilt and rot if left in the wet ground. Dewpaw listened to them chat as he jumped onto a fallen tree and down to the other side, a small splash of water covering his paws in mud. He shook one, scowling, and continuing along.

Eagleblaze followed after Goosefall and Dewpaw, looking around for herbs or cobwebs as he walked. Perhaps even prey, come to think of it. Hunting whilst out looking for herbs would double the work he did, and therefore, his effectiveness as a warrior.
~~~~~~~~~
"Sure!" Tawnykit agreed after a few moments. "You can go if you have stuff you need to do, though," She added. "Beetleshade told me that apprentices are really, really busy, all the time!" The queen had told Tawnykit that apprentices had loads of stuff to do simply in order to stop the she-kit from bugging the apprentices too much, but now, she was taking it seriously. Why shouldn't she?

"Oh! Be careful Dewpaw!" goosefall follows along the fallen tree side. She would hate for his paw to become more injured. She swears, these apprentices need to be more careful. They are going to wind up living in the medicine cat den! Goosefall stumbles along almost tripping but not quite.

"We're almost there." he meowed, ignoring her warnings "I can smell it." the Flooded Willows were different than the rivers or the lake due to the dying trees as well as their close proximity to the other clan. He picked up his pace, still staying somewhat close to the other two, and finally came out of the trees. In front of him was the swampy area covered with trees and grass that poked out of the almost thick looking water.

Otterpaw giggles at what tawnykit tells her "Oh no! We aren't thaaat busy. I'm totally bored right now so I'd love to help you!" she hops up to her paws and begins to focus on searching for beetles that tawnykit can find and catch herself. Otterpaw crouches lowly and observes through the grass

Eagleblaze emerged into the Flooded Willows alongside Dewpaw. "Stick close to me or Goosefall, and don't wander off," he warned the apprentice. "I got lost in this part of the territory when I was younger, and I almost got hurt pretty badly. I wouldn't want you getting hurt, too."
~~~~~~~
"Okay!" Tawnykit mewed cheerfully. She crouched down into her very inaccurate idea of what a hunting crouch was like, looking around for bugs or insects. She gasped loudly, noticing a red-and-brown beetle a little way away from her. She bounded towards the bug, pinning it down with one paw. "Got it!" She exclaimed proudly.

Goosefall happily trots into the swampy land, making sure to check her step for any floating plants that look to be ground. She reminds herself she is here for marigold primarily but if she happens to find the coltsfoot or watermint, that would be nice. The medicine cat scents the air and maneuver around the area toward the last place she'd seen the marigold growing. "Dewpaw, Eagleblaze is right if you do explore go with him. If not just stick with me! Im, sure there could be prey around here."

"Nice one Tawnykit!" she praises the she-kit and while Otterpaw would like to show her the correct stance for a crouch, Otterpaw thinks that might count as kit training. She spots a small blue-black beetle on a blade of grass and moves her head in a nodding way towards it for Tawnykit to catch.

Dewpaw looked a bit deflated, but stuck closer to them. He sniffed around, watching the medicine cat work with some interest. "What are those?" he asked, pointing to some of the herbs she had collected. Honestly he didn't know much about herbs, and while he didn't really want to knowing that basics might come in handy.

"This is Marigold!" she smiles to the apprentice. She's glad someone is interested in what she's doing "It's the herb that I used to heal up your back paw." The she-cat mentions happily "And if we can find them, I'm going to be getting a few things of coltsfoot and watermint!" she nods
.....
"Of course! I'll help you find them but, since I'm already trained in the art of hunting, I feel you deserve to get some experience." she goes back to looking before she speaks again "I'm sure your future mentor will be very impressed with your experience as a kit."

((sure! Time to exaggerate every little detail. lol))
As typical with every day, the Tom had been talking up a storm in the Warrior's den, chatting with his clan members and generally enjoying life. He could tell the rain was beginning to make some fairly worried for the clan and Swallowheart, while in agreement that the rain wasn't so good, was there to cheer them up. He's been talking about how good this is for Goosefall and her herb collecting or how nice the water felt at times, even if it was generally cold. In the dampest and darkest of times for the clan, Swallowheart feels it's his duty to help out his clanmates with their gloomy attitudes. Swallowheart had been talking to several other cats before Branchtail shooed him off and out of the den in her grumpy attitude. Swallowheart huffed and searched for someone else to talk too. He wouldn't admit it but Swallowheart often likes to talk to others because he gets lonely quite a bit. The young warrior sat just outside in the clearing, looking through the small drizzle of rain to find someone to chat with. He spotted Otterpaw, Tawnykit, Flutterwing, and Beetleshade but they seemed busy and after Branchtail yelled at him, he figured it was better to play it safe and not interrupt a lovely conversation. Plus they looked happy and he was all for that.

Rosepatch yawned and turned his back to the loud group with Tawnykit. The lazy warrior was laying near them, the area being the driest in the camp other than the dens. He had been laying in the rare beam of sun until the clouds covered the sky. Rosepatch tried to curl tighter into a ball and ignore the energetic conversation coming from not far away. On days like this, which were nearly everyday but he didn't mention that, all you could do was curl up and wait for it to pass by. The sound of rain was nice to fall asleep to and his longer fur kept him warm.

Swallowheart's eyes moved across the landscape before stopping at Rosepatch. To the tom, it seems as if Rosepatch himself could use someone to talk too. So, Swallowheart, being himself, decides to direct his next conversation toward Rosepatch and begins to pad toward the other tom before greeting him eagerly "Hello Rosepatch!" he sat down in front of the tom with a small smile. Hopefully, Rosepatch wasn't asleep. If so Swallowheart would apologize and move along..or continue to try and converse. Whichever he deemed better.

Rosepatch opened one eye to look up at Swallowheart. Normally he might ignore him, instead though he stretched out and sat up, shaking his fur out. "Hey Swallowheart." he meowed, offering the other a smile. His eyes flicked towards the group around the kit, before looking back to Swallowheart "What's up?" he asked.
