Timberpaw felt himself lighten up as the old tom said he was tough. 'I knew I was strong!' He thought to himself, closing his eyes as his brows furrowed, a smile appearing.
His ears perked up, snapping out of his thoughts. Did he need the dock? No, he didn't think so, as the cut only stung just a bit.

He looked at Ringpaw, nodding. "You can go without it." He smiled, glancing around the den.
Truth be told, Timber wandered what it would be like to bbe a medicine cat. 'Probably fun, but also pretty serious!'He thought, knowing he wouldn't fit the job at all.
The apprentice was too hyper and acted like a kit most of the time, so Medicine cat would not fit for him.

Ringpaw nodded as he turned away, and the small calico turned back to Timberpaw. Inspecting it once more, she blinked softly. “This might hurt a bit. Once I pull it out, let me check it for any other splinters and then we’ll get you some marigold to put on there.” She meowed cheerfully, propping up his paw with her own.
Bringing her muzzle down, she gave the thorn a quick, swift lick. It might hurt a bit, but she did it to make sure that there wasn’t any grit in the way. Bringing her teeth down, she lodged her front fangs into the base of the thorn, and began to pull it out of the pad. She felt a rush of the blood, and with a ting of satisfaction, she picked up the splinter in her mouth and spat it out to the side. Turning back to the pad, she licked it clean, making sure that nothing was left. “Do you feel anything poking you still?” She asked Timberpaw, meeting his eyes. “That could mean there still is a little bit in there.”
Turning around, she scanned the den for Shinefang. “Do you have the marigold yet?” She called back.
