((algaewing: *watching saltwhisker stroll away* twas my plan all along mwahaha))
algaewing with kiwipaw (Tealraven ), mentions saltwhisker in camp Algaewing blinked as Saltwhisker strolled off. "Well, he seems to be feeling better," she said to herself as she picked up her own herbs and padded after him.
As she stepped back into camp, she spotted Kiwipaw carefully observing a spread of herbs under a tree. A small gecko's tail poked out of his mouth.
Amused at the sight, Algaewing changed the trajectory of her path towards the healer apprentice and set her own herbs down next to him. He seemed too focused on the herbs to notice her approach. She watched him for a few moments before clearing her throat. "And what helps insect bites?"
Butterflypaw's heart hurt a little for the boa, the agonized slither of its dulled body. She turned to Whitepaw in no small shock. "... That'd be so epic," she breathed, already seeing it in slow motion before her eyes. She was about to offer to hold it down or something, only for the tug of thorns to remind her of her situation. "If you get me out of here, I can help...!" But she knew the effort might draw the snake's attention. It was a dangerous idea - maybe she should be trying to convince Whitepaw out of it.
"Go for the eyes," she whispered back.
basiltail with crocodilefang and whalespirit (swallowtail ) at the border
"See anything spooky?" Basiltail's mew broke through the gloomy atmosphere. The clouds were heavy, threatening to spill at any moment. "Marking!" His head poked above the tangle of mangrove roots. "Say, what do you think might be hiding inside the crocodile's lair? Crocs, naturally - but since everyone too scared to go in, it'd make for the best hiding place, wouldn't you think?
omg algae and salt rvials/enemies arc??????????? (reference to the first sentence of the post) jkjk... unless..?

WAVECREST palm coast / with ospreyfeather & lemonpaw
A cheerful voice hailed him from the rear as Ospreyfeather rejoined him on the beach with Lemonpaw not far behind, an angelfish clamped in the apprentice's jaws. Judging by the smaller tom's similarly wet fur, Lemonpaw had just returned from an attempt at fishing, as well. Ospreyfeather's coat, on the other paw, was tangled with leaves and bits of branches as though he'd been swimming in the scraggly bushes that lined the shore. Wavecrest's whiskers twitched in amusement at the sight.
"Just the one." Wavecrest nodded toward a pile of freshly turned sand further up the beach where he'd buried his only other catch. He sighed and glanced up at the sky, squinting against the scattered raindrops. "The fish don't seem to enjoy the rain anymore than I do." He suppressed a shiver as a cool gust of wind blew over his drenched fur. "Have either of you had any luck?"
SUNCHASER returning to camp / with silentwave "Are you...? Yelling at the ocean?"
Sunchaser paused in her nearby patrolling to watch as Silentwave muttered angrily at the waves lapping at his paws, his tail twitching and fur puffed up with agitation. She had been watching him for several minutes already, hesitant to interrupt... whatever he was doing. Maybe it was an advanced technique that only the hunter apprentices had learned. Surely he knew better than she.
But then he'd started scolding the ocean in a tone that rapidly increased in volume until she was pretty sure he'd scared away any of the prey he was trying to catch, if that's indeed what he was trying to do. She tilted her head at him. "Well, you're not going to get anything by doing that!" She bounded after Silentwave as he stormed off the beach, lashing at shrubs and bushes as he went.
"There's no need to be angry," she said affably, trotting along beside him. "You can just do some hunting on the way back to camp! Problem solved!" A branch that Silentwave had swatted aside flew back just in time to slap her in the face. She spat out a mouthful of bitter tasting leaves and continued, unbothered: "I can help, if you want! I'm no hunter, but even we scouts can use a little practice from time to time! Gotta keep those reflexes sharp, you know. You lose what you don't use!"

Coconutfall »
His start with conversing had been weak. He silently scolded himself for such behavior, tail twitching ever so slightly. This was his daughter, he should be able to speak casually with her, yet here he was, acting like some frightened apprentice on his first day of training. Coconutfall sighed through his mouthful of crab shell. Everything had been so easy back when he was an apprentice. Why had it all changed? Why couldn’t the Ocean just have chose Sandheart as his mate instead? He had loved the ginger molly ever since he could remember, and having that taken away from him had ruined everything.
But as he glanced sideways at Jacarandabloom, he realized something important - had the Ocean not paired him with Vanillabloom his first litter of kits would have never been born. He wouldn’t have some of his favorite cats around even if their family has become distant in the last moon. The thought cleared his mind ever so slightly, but the awkwardness was not one to simply go away over one revelation. It still lingered, dark and brooding just as like the clouds in the sky.
A nod was his response as his teeth finally penetrated the crab’s shell. Coconutfall remained silent a moment longer, tearing away the shell to reveal the meat inside. Once satisfied with his work, he turned his attention back to Jacarandabloom. ”We trained for as long as we could. I wanted to teach him more about the Ocean, but the last place I want to be in a storm is near the water.” The thought of being swept up by a wave drove a shudder down his spine. It had already been enough for him to receive the sign of him drowning under the blood red waters. ”Have you been in camp all day?” He turned a question onto her, hoping that would free his mind of the vision for now.

duskflight with redwave (Feathertalon )
"You do not need to answer," hummed Duskflight. "My only desire is that, hopefully, knowing others care for your well-being is enough." He watched Redwave out of the corner of his eye. "Of course, if your mind rests heavy, perhaps a listening ear, free from judgement, is of more help."
He sat, trying to exude more patient grandfatherly energies, rather than eagerly waiting. He had a sneaking suspicion though, that he wouldn't have to wait long.
mintsong with coastdawn (swallowtail)
"What does it look like happened," Mintsong growled against her better judgement, ears flicking in both irritation and pain at Coastdawn. "I am suffering and I don't know what to do!"
She batted her ears again, but they were now so sensitive merely the pressure nearly sent Mintsong howling, frustration hot in her chest. Her ears, to Coastdawn, were now reddened beyond belief, some skin torn off, what remained scabbed over. Welts were starting to rise along her scalp. A horrific allergic reaction. "Help! Me!"

YES RIVAL ARC YESSSSSS I think it would be really interesting bc Algae is so outspoken and Saltwhisker is quite composed... For now. It would be interesting to see the development of their little arguments.

JACARANDABLOOM camp / with coconutfall Jacarandabloom chewed sullenly and swallowed, still not looking at Coconutfall as he explained his little outing with Tigerpaw. She was beginning to resent the ocean. First it forced her father to mate with someone he didn't love, then it made him choose one of his forbidden kits as neophyte, and now it bade him to spend all his spare time with his precious heir. What was so important about the ocean that Coconutfall could possibly have to teach Tigerpaw?
Must be mystic neophyte-Oracle mumbo-jumbo, she thought. I guess now I'll never know. Even though it should have been me. Her scowl deepened. Or Redwave or Algaewing or Lilypool, I guess. We came first! She prodded at her parrotfinch, turning it over so she could get to the tender breast. "I went out with a healer patrol earlier this morning," she muttered. "Looking for a cure for the snake bug things. But then we had to come back for lunch."
Jacarandabloom glanced at Coconutfall out of the corner of her eye. "Has the wise and mighty ocean given you any ideas about how to take that snake down?" Because if he didn't, she had a few ideas. She was curious to see his reaction first, however. She tore another mouthful from the bird's breast with a tad more aggression than was necessary.

Redwave »
A huff escaped the young tom. He shook his head. "What is there to talk about other than what every other cat is already talking about?" Redwave shot a glance toward Duskflight, eyes bright with resentment. "Coconutfall ruined my family, our Clan. Surely the Ocean didn't will that to happen." It made no sense to Redwave. Something here wasn't right, and he wanted to figure out what that was. He wanted the truth out of his father, but something told him he would never get it. So that meant he had to act. If things were to right themselves, then Redwave needed to do something about it.
The hunter's ears flattened against his cranium. "Who do you believe the Clan's rightful heir is?" The question was not prompted; this fell off Redwave's tongue without any mentioning of the Clan's neophyte. Amber eyes fell upon Duskflight, waiting, curious for an answer. Redwave stood with bated breath, the Ocean the only noise falling upon his ears as he awaited the elder's response. Coconutfall »
This was all small talk, Coconutfall knew that. It was awkward, and the oracle would much rather follow a fluid conversation with his daughter that wasn't just about trivial things. He wanted to sit beside her and share a meal while they spoke of their day in light tones. He wanted to sit there and just a father to Jacarandabloom, but things had changed. So much had changed recently. Coconutfall knew it was mostly his fault, but what was he supposed to do? Sit around and pretend he didn't love Sandheart all because the Ocean told him to be with another molly? It was what he had tried to do, but fate simply had other plans.
Jacarandabloom's aggression was noticed. Coconutfall flicked his gaze away, paws shuffling over the ground. He sighed, leaning down to focus on the crab while he ruminated on what to say. The tom leaned forward to sink his fangs into the exposed meat, tearing it away from the small body. Slowly he swallowed. His throat was dry, nervous from his interaction, but he managed, and once finished he brought his attention back to Jacarandabloom, hoping to ease some of her displeasure.
"I...recently received a sign," he admitted steadily. The only other cat he had told of his sign had been Sandheart; he hoped to speak with Tigerpaw about it soon, once there was time and once the brown tabby apprentice had a cleared conscious. "I still have yet to figure out the meaning. It could have been about the boa." Coconutfall wasn't sure on that, though. Something about the vision made him feel like it wasn't about the snake - he had seen blood red water and what looked to be a silhouette of a shark in the depths. Nothing about that made him feel like it was warning him about the snake, but the Ocean worked in mysterious ways. Anything could mean anything, that much Coconutfall knew.

That's absolutely fine! I'll do an opening right now so I don't forget later !
Batpaw - in camp
Batpaw's ears perked up as his eyes darted around the camp. "Not much going on I suppose." ,the tom quietly muttered to himself. As he mindlessly walked around camp in circles seeking excitement, out of nowhere the tom's front paw stepped on his left paw causing the tom to tumble down onto the ground snout first. His face captured the moment of knowing that he embarrassed himself despite no tom or molly watching, hopefully at least. Batpaw laid on the ground for a hot minute hoping when he lifted his head up nobody was there. Face filled with heat and eyes filled with panic, he lifted his face up and scoped the area. The tom got up smoothly and sat back down and started grooming himself to try to play it cool, as if his face didn't have dry dirt all sprinkled over him. Play it cool Batpaw,play it cool Batpaw, he said to himself in his thoughts that were racing with anxious thoughts.

in camp
"Don't choke now," Algae mewed, amused as she watched Kiwipaw swallow his gecko tail and peer over the herbs. "Good. Gumbo limbo helps well with skin irritations, so it's very helpful when dealing with insect bites, such as the ones that's been bothering a lot of cats recently." She just barely stopped herself from scratching her own bites, and sighed. The temptation was nigh irresistible at times, but she knew better than to scratch carelessly. It would only produce even more skin problems, after all.
"I have a more difficult puzzle for you, Kiwipaw," she said, sitting next to him and wrapping her tail neatly over her paws. "Hypothetically, you encounter a skin affliction neither you nor your fellow healers have ever seen before. What’s the most important thing to look for?"
butterflypaw at gecko ravine
Butterflypaw panicked and started straining, pain shooting through her fur as the thorns clutched at her. "Whitepaw! You can do it! Hold on!"
But even she could see that, no matter how weak and pained the snake might be, it was still large, strong, and now - very angry. The fear that Whitepaw might actually get hurt - all because of her - pained her even greater than the thorns.
She stepped forward, gritting her teeth and squeezing her eyes shut as she heaved with all her might.
No longer trying to protect her skin, she actually tore herself out easily, though now with scratches she ignored in favor of facing down the snake. Charging forward, she leapt and pinned the wiggling tail down. "Get it! Get it now, Whitepaw!"
basiltail on patrol
"All in all, a nice peaceful patrol," Basiltail mewed as he padded up to stand with Crocodilefang. "Ah, a shame - I was hoping for something more exciting. My claws have been itching for a fight, truth be told!" He beamed, carefree with his words. "Shall we head back, then? Ooh, let's play a game on our way back! I hardly know anything about the two of you - two truths and a lie! No, I Spy! No... Twenty Questions!"
((no more energy for coding haha :') dunno if its too out there for the cats to know twenty questions but it'd be funny))

i'll have yoko stalk them rn hehe )
Yoko - currently stalking basiltail, crocodilefang, and whalespirit
Yoko eyes have been following the three mysterious cats for a while now. He was sure he was going to get caught by them very soon, but the thrill of this danger excited him even more. It was almost like he wanted to get caught in a confrontation with the three cats. Yoko knew he had no chance against them as he only had one valuable skill when caught in a fight : run. Running as fast as he could away from whatever trouble he brought upon himself. The handsome tom was pretty confident in his ability of simply running. He didn't even care if he deemed as a coward for this, as long as he was safe nothing else mattered. Yoko was trying to conceal a loud snicker from escaping from his mouth as he continued following the felines to whatever undiscovered area that Yoko hasn't even encountered in his whole entire life. The sheer fact that they haven't discovered him yet made him feel even more thrilled. It got to the point that he wanted to make obvious signs he was following them.
"Shall we head back, then? Ooh, let's play a game on our way back! I hardly know anything about the two of you - two truths and a lie! No, I Spy! No... Twenty Questions!". When Yoko heard this, his ears perked up and he was very intrigued as to what he can discover about these cats even if it was the tiniest and most useless information he could gather. He was very intrigued about how these cats lived in peace in area like this. All was in his mind was gather information and continue stalking them until he was caught. All was going peaceful until Yoko felt something that made his fur spike up in shock. He looked down and saw nothing, Yoko had no clue what was that dreadful feeling of uneasiness. That was until he saw a small blurb in the background on his shoulders. A spider, also known as Yoko's fears. Yoko's eyes grew in fear as he trashed around in the small bushes he was concealing himself in, trying to get rid of the spider. The spider thankfully fell off and Yoko felt relief. That was until he realized he blew his cover. "Well crap. Right before the good stuff happened too.", the white tom purred to himself as he smiled knowing the worst was yet to come.

JACARANDABLOOM camp / with coconutfall The torbie scout finished off her parrotfinch while Coconutfall answered. She hadn't been paying attention to her meal and, distracted by her frustration with Coconutfall, had eaten too quickly. Her stomach clenched uncomfortably. She spat out a small green feather and casually swiped her tongue around her jaws, hoping he hadn't noticed. Now she had nothing to fidget with.
So Jacarandabloom turned her full attention on Coconutfall for the first time. Her gaze was bright and intense as she questioned him. "A sign? And you asked Tigerpaw to help you interpret it, didn't you?" Her tail whisked over the grass behind her. She felt a strange yearning in her chest, a desire to impress him, and immediately pushed it down, ashamed. She felt like she was a tiny kit again, wrestling and competing with her littermates for her father's attention. "Even if you haven't yet figured out the meaning, you could use that! The Clan wouldn't question you acting on a sign from the Ocean!" Even if they should, her thoughts muttered.
It's what she would do if she were Oracle. If she claimed her actions were divinely inspired, she'd have the full support of the Clan. She could devise a plan to take down the snake and they'd follow her without question, sign or no sign. She wondered if her father actually had any ideas of his own or if he really was just waiting for the ocean to tell him what to do about it.
KIWIPAW camp / with algaewing
"Heh." Kiwipaw laughed sheepishly, rubbing his left foreleg with the other paw. Becoming serious again, he nodded. "Right. That's a good point, actually. I hadn't thought of that." Herbs could have multiple benefits beyond their primary use if their application was clever. He eyed the herbs before him once more. There had to be an answer hidden in the leaves and flowers. Something that wasn't immediately obvious.
His green eyes brightened as Algaewing sat beside him. "A puzzle, huh?" He enjoyed things that made his mind stretch. He concentrated, gazing at a fixed point in the near distance without seeing anything. "The most important thing to look for..." He shifted his gaze back to the herbs. If something seems impossible, look deeper. "Would be to see if there are any similarities to other known skin afflictions, use one of those treatments, and modify as needed?" He guessed.
