His explanation seemingly sufficient, the gentle giant set on his way to find the herbs needed. Dandelions were easy to get, standing out among the rest of the flowers even in this grove. The burnet took a little longer to find. Finding a small bundle of the purple flowers he purred in amusement. They really were spiky little things, weren't they? Like a kit who'd woken up on the wrong side of the nest.
Happy with his find, Snowybreeze dipped his head, taking three of the leaves carefully with him. Mismatched ears perked up, however, when he heard talk close by. It seemed that Goldenpaw and Silentleap were chatting amongst themselves? That was all fine and good as far as the pale warrior was concerned. It was good to bond with clanmates in outings such as these! It was what they were discussing that brought a small frown of worry to his face.
Perhaps he had misheard, but he could have sworn he'd heard Silentleap tell Goldenpaw that this was burnet? A quick glance at the star shaped flowers and fuzzy leaves let him quickly know that was not the case. Maybe his explanation had not been as thorough as he had hoped? Oh dear. At least he had caught it on time. It wouldn't have done for them to arrive to poor Cowtuft with the wrong herbs over a simple misunderstanding.
Clearing his throat, Snowybreeze pawed at the air to catch his clanmates' attention, pointing at the leaves on his maw once he was sure he had it. Twitching his tail towards the source close by, the tom blinked apologetically, certain he must have said something horrendously wrong for them to assume it was fuzzy leaved herbs they were to gather. Perhaps he had mixed up the flowers and leaves in his description? Oh dear... this patrol had been nothing but confusion so far. Some patrol leader he was.
"Burnet," the young warrior added. He was normally not one for needless chatter amongst cats he was less familiar with, and he hated to insult their intellect by assuming they needed further explanation but... he really wanted to make sure he was being clear this time. It wasn't their fault he wasn't the clearest or most capable of warriors, to be honest.
This explanation done, the tom spun around, eager to get a few dandelions added to the mix as well. He was certain Cowtuft needed both. He would not have asked for a split herb patrol if there wasn't a dire need, after all. Gratefully, it did not take the patched tom long to find what he was looking for, and he dipped his head once more, carefully grabbing two dandelions by the stems and snapping them gently with his teeth. Hopefully there would be no further confusion and everyone would be able to get to get whatever herbs they could carry back now.
