(“Its a normal medical practice!” - Gracklefur) Gracklefur snickered as he ate, he could see how the maggots left a bad taste in Pineshade. “Don’t worry. You were the only one who had them. Just in case something went wrong, there’d only be one fatality.” He said and took a big bite of the rabbit. “Also-“ He swallowed, “They lay eggs soooooooo don’t freak out if you know...they hatch.” He flicked his tail and finished up the rabbit. “Be glad I didn’t do it to the new kits.” He knew Frostedstar would kill him if he dared put even one maggot close to her kits. But he just wanted to mess with Pineshade.

Pineshade | Camp | Gracklefur (@fortunata ) Pineshade gaped in horror at the black furred medicine cat. EGGS? Only one fatality? The white and orange splashed tom felt his fur crawl with unease as his mind imagined a crawling sensation underneath the fresh cobwebs. Staring at his leg with eyes wide enough to fill milk saucers, he couldn't bring himself to speak. Instead, he whipped his attention back to Gracklefur and narrowed his gaze. Hurt, but soon enough the tom got over himself. Grudges weren't in his character, although he would be sure as Starclan to be more cautious about sleeping in the Medicine den overnight. "That's a low blow," Pineshade responded, but he remained unhurt. "I don't know if I should admire you for innovative methods or run for the hills."

Gracklefur felt prideful as the tom mentioned admiration for his unique methods, he didn’t let it show though his eyes shined with pride. He didn’t like showing more of a joyful side, he always felt weird being joyous and happy. However he also applied it to his work, he never acted emotional or sympathetic as he helps injured cats, it’d cause him more stress and even distract him. He works best with a montone face that only stated the facts. But outside his work, he enjoyed messing with cats. He picked off chunks of meat stuck to his teeth without looking at Pineshade, “Run for the hills and you’ll have no one to take out the eggs. But then again they’re just little worms.” As he said that, he noticed one on Pineshade’s shoulder, he nonchalantly flicked it off with his tail and give a smug grin. “What would you cats do without?” (not get worms in our bodies)

Pineshade | Camp | Gracklefur (@fortunata ) Pineshade remained steadfast, refusing to show the terror that filled his stomach as Gracklefur flicked one off of his shoulder. Deadpan, but turning pale, the white and orange splashed tom felt his skin crawl. With long fur and a thick undercoat, he hated the mental image of creatures wriggling in his skin. Often teased as an apprentice for his hatred of all insects, he narrowed his eyes at the medicine cat with a hint of skepticism kindling in his green gaze. "You're bluffing," He responded, bemused, his orange dappled tail twitching as he readjusted his position, placing less weight on his leg. It took everything in him not to glance down at the cobwebs with a scrutinizing look. It wouldn't hurt just to peek... No. Then he'll win. Pineshade watched Grackelfur eat the hare, hoping it would put him on his good side. He'd rather jump in a pit of frogs then get on the medicine cat's bad side, especially if his idea of a practical joke was placing MAGGOTS on your leg. "Hmmmph." He responded good-naturedly, his expression giving away that Gracklefur had gotten to him. "Alright, I can take a joke. Ha, ha. Ha."

“Bluffing? Alright. Whatever you say.” Gracklefur said with a hum. He stood up and arched his back and stretched his back leg. He’d prepared a mental list of herbs he needed, “I need to go out a get some herbs. Want to come Pineshade? You can help carry the maggots.” He grinned as he headed to the camp entrance, he wondered though if he should bring a warrior along. What if the foxes were still lurking, waiting for a lone cat to go out. He twitched his whiskers as he knew the foxes hadn’t been scented in the past two days, ‘Foxes are smart, they could just be hiding...” (If Pineshade has kits, he’d warn them about Gracklefur.) (“He put MAGGOTS in me! So stay away from him!” Cried Pineshade, Applekit’s eyes widened, “Yo sick, I want some maggots.”)

Pineshade | Camp | Gracklefur (@fortunata ) Pineshade sighed, pulling himself onto his paws to follow the dark-furred medicine cat. His long white coat had moss stuck out haphazardly in every which direction, as he hadn't felt the need to groom it. The offer to leave camp was eagerly accepted, although he hung back a step and waited for the inevitable tagline. Maggots. Yep, there it was. The orange splashed warrior's ears angled backwards, his nose scrunching in disgust. Determined not to let Gracklefur get to him, Pineshade made his way after him. The more he used his hind leg, the more elastic the ligaments became. His limp became fainter as he approached the camp entrance, however, it would linger for a moon or so before subsiding. "Yep, I'll come. Just don't fling any at me." Pineshade said good-naturedly, although he side-eyed the medicine cat warily. Was he being serious? I can never tell. He rolled his eyes and focused on keeping up with the wiry tom.

Gracklefur was surprised the warrior actually followed, he was only joking around to make him more nervous. “You must really like the maggots if you want to carry them.” Truth was that he didn’t even need maggots, rather just some dock, goldenrod and juniper berries. Maybe he could find some honey too, he loved the taste of it. Aside from eating it as a snack, Gracklefur would dip bad tasting herbs in it to feed to stubborn kits. Strangely, Gracklefur didn’t seem to yell at the kits or force them to eat the medicine. That doesn’t mean he adore kits, he still finds them annoying and too naive. Queens would keep their kits away from him as he’ll bluntly tell them how much the worlds sucks and how everyone is going to die. “I need juniper berries, goldenrod, and dock. If we have time, I can snatch a honeycomb. But in this weather, I doubt it.”

Pineshade | Leaving camp | Grackelfur (@fortunata) Pineshade followed Grackelfur as they left camp. His fluffy orange tail flicked this way and that, drinking in the sights and smells of the world outside Vergasclan's walls. "Nope. Hate 'em. But being cooped up in camp is worse." The pale tom responded cheerily, her green gaze going from tree to tree. Focusing hard on keeping up with the wiry medicine cat, the warrior listened to as he listed herbs. The mention of bees made his muzzle curl. "Oh, no. I bothered a wasp nest on accident. Bees are a no go, I'll stand watch waaaay out of the way." Pineshade responded, humour glinting in his eyes as he followed Grackelfur. Now that the initial shock of the fact that he had placed maggots in his wound to heal it, the warrior matched the jest.

Gracklefur gave a cruel chuckle, “Bugs really aren’t your thing. You should have told me that.” He hummed and stopped at a bush of juniper berries. He picked a few and walked off to find some goldenrod and dock. “Bees don’t sting unless you provoke them...so if they see a large cat like you, they’ll probably sting so yeah, you should sit back.” Gracklefur smirked as he found a patch of goldenrods, he picked a few and placed it on the ground along with the berries. “Carry those.” He then continued off to find dock.

Pineshade | Gracklefur (@fortunata ) Pineshade felt the herbs tickle against the roof of his mouth as he carefully held them between his teeth. Following behind Grackelfur, the white and orange warrior let out a harumph. "Yeah, I hate bugs that eat carrion and sting. Especially after the 'meat' they were consuming was my leg." He paused, eyes darting across the foliage as he tried to figure out what the medicine cat was looking for. Pineshade wasn't one to hold grudges, but he would keep the this one in the back of his mind. Not begrudgingly, just to be aware of what the cat was capable of. "What are you looking for?" The tom asked, scenting the air around him. Goldenrod filled his nose, so much so that the warrior had to stifle a sneeze. His fur bristled as his eyes slightly watered, but he continued on. The need to sneeze subsided as he tried to figure out what herb Grackelfur was searching for. They weren't his specialty, as unless the plants were brightly different colors, he couldn't tell the difference.

“Maggots only chew on bacteria and actually cleaning up your wounds.” Gracklefur said as he searched, “They clean wounds faster then me.” He added before he smelled a big leafed plant. “Not it.” His ears flicked at the tom’s question, “Dock? Well it’s a plant, no flowers, big flat leaves. The problem is that they’re green like everything else in this stupid forest.” He grumbled as he walked towards a log. He peeked in, nothing but moss and dirt. “Of course the plant used for treating scratches, the most common wound, is a nightmare to find.” He muttered and he searched through another big leafed plant. “Sometimes they look like sorrel.”

“Sorrel, got it.” Pineshade responded, nodding his head like he had a clue about what the medicine cat was saying. His fluffy orange tail drooped as he rearranged the goldenrod and berries in his grip. Don’t say it...Don’t...
“What’s sorrel?” The white and orange splashed tom asked, flicking his ears as a overhanging branch caught it. Ducking, he followed Gracklefur at a hurried, awkward space. His green eyes stared down the log at the dirt filled earth at its underside before catching up to him.
