Berrypaw ducked her head shyly with a smile as Wisteriawren offered her another nudge, the action comforting. She wasn't used to other RiverClanners despite her 'immediate' (adoptive) family being affectionate and friendly, so it was... nice. And to see Wisteria look briefly happy, that spark in her eye — it made Berry feel a bit better too, at least for a moment through the torrent of their dark situation and the exhaustion of all the events of the past few moons.

The dark brown apprentice waited for the warrior to return, giving herself a nice big stretch and a thoughtful groom through her flecked pelt. Everything was quiet and peaceful until she heard small grunts of pain as Wisteriawren returned — turning, Berrypaw's eyes immediately widened to see a few, tiny things that looked like miniscule splinters or thorns sticking out of the warrior's fluffed up fur.

"O-Oh, dear — you got stung!" Berrypaw gasped, looking worriedly at the former kittypet's pelt. She quickly sprang to her paws, peering at the tiny stingers and trying to pluck them out with her teeth in typical, instinctive medicine cat fashion. As she did, she let out a huff and glanced at the warrior with a grateful expression. "Stars, I'm sorry... t-thank you, though, for what you did. I'll tell Mistyshard! Then maybe she can teach me what we use honey for anyway," she mused in a bashful purr, still feeling bad that Wisteria had gotten hurt, her eyes softened in slight guilt.

[ hehe you're welcome friend! o7 ]

She/Her | Purrk(s): Just A Scratch

[ This ongoing roleplay takes place prior to Mistyshard’s resignation announcement. ]

Mouth and tongue feeling sticky with sugary sweet honey, Wisteriawren struggled for a moment to get it off before giving up for the time being, glancing back at Berrypaw as the apprentice began plucking the stingers from her pelt. The ex-kittypet winced at the burning sensation, but offered Berrypaw a kind smile.

"That's okay, I don't mind. It'll probably go away." She leaned over to lap at one of the stings, tongue rasping over it repeatedly - until a while later she realized the insistent hurt had lessened. Blinking, Wisteriawren raised her head, not realizing that the honey coating her tongue had been unintentionally applied to the poisonous pinprick.

She blinked a couple times and glanced over at the fussing Berrypaw. "Hey, it stopped." Obviously the dot that was the wound was still there, but it wasn't... "Burning, I mean. It's not hurting as much as it was anymore." She licked her lips unconsciously, still trying to get the sticky substance off her maw when realization struck. "Oh- wait. Do you think it was the honey?" Wisteriawren glanced at the wound she'd been licking at, noting that the fur there was more matted because of her grooming - and the honey. "The other stings still hurt." And there was fluff in her mouth, eugh. She needed to wash her mouth off somewhere, please.

"Just maybe don't... apply it with your mouth. The honey tastes nice but there's fur on my tongue and it is disgusting." She grimaced.

[ Tada !! Berry can know one use for honey now at least, wanted to help out with that since the oppurtunity was right there and I couldn't pass it up lol ]
