Come up wit' solutions ta issues wit'out bein' directly told but the mud idea" Or any others "dont seem ta be occurin'."
Crowtooth leaned back and straight, calling out a "If yer stumped Snowpaw try the mud idea this fine fellow is givin' ya! Or Ive seen bees avoidin' mint plants fer some reason so track that strong scent down an' hide there until they've flown off!" thinking of his own misadventures with bees. Mint, just mint-mint not cat-mint or water-mint was a rather gross smelling plant more commonly found near the twoleg place but perhaps it was that scent that drove off the bees in the end. Whatever it was the apprentices could use that as Crowtooth resumed his conversation with Wolfhive.
"Ta be frank these lot are the result o' some failed patrols an' didnt report they were ditched until I was already callin' 'em up. This issa lesson o' sorts."
But that was besides the point and just kinda an explanation so thunderclan didnt think windclan liked to torment their apprentices for sport.
Riverclan was the more interesting subject and the tunnelers head snapped right up. "Riverclan? Aint heard o' or seen nothin' on our end, we were just at the border an' its as barren as ever. Stars I even took a jaunt through their territory not long ago an' saw nothin'. Was startin' ta wonder if theyre ever gonna come back at all really or if they were so sore over the battle they decided ta make a go o' it elsewhere. Why?" If thunderclan had found the tattered remains of the clan or had indication they'd snuck back to do some sort of sneak attack without alerting windclan Crowtooth knew Twilightstar would even approve of an exchange for such valuable information.

Snowpaw found some mint, and rolled in it. "Thank the stars!" She gasped, when the bees left, but said, "Ow! Uh. These stings hurt. I might have to see Lightningstorm or Rabbitpaw later....." She hoped that she didn't see Sunfall anytime soon.

Re: Thunderglade
[ @ Morrigan @ Bonsai @ SuspiciousMindz - sorry for the late reply! permission given to morrigan to say that copper heads back to camp with night in your next post ]
COPPERPAW
The apprentice nodded, making the necessary adjustments. Oh wow, this was MUCH better. Balance restored, he took a few experimental steps. Nightgaze continued instructing, and he sat back up to listen attentively. He filed the information away in his mind carefully. Downwind, he should've listened to his initial instincts then!
She was sniffing the air, and he did his best to copy. But it was not until several moments after Nightgaze pointed in the correct direction that he caught the scent as well. "O-okay!" he nodded, trailing after her. A few paces in he angled slightly away, letting her track the rodent herself. He figured it wouldn't be very easy to catch anything with him breathing down her scruff. Besides, she'd given him more than enough information to make a first attempt.
After sitting in the grass by a tree trunk for a moment, tabby tom caught a whiff of something warm and salty. That was promising! He dropped into his crouch, remembering to spread his forelegs and level his tail. As quietly as possible, the apprentice shuffled forward until the animal came into his field of vision. A mouse! [ rolled a 17/20 for attempt 1 ] Copperpaw grinned. Wait. What was he supposed to do now? They hadn't gone over the motion required to actually catch this piece of prey. He was so close though! Narrowing bright blue eyes, the apprentice jumped clumsily, aiming both paws down at the rodent. To his delight, he landed squarely on its back, though not before it let out a shrill squeak. But a win was a win. Even if he'd scared off the rest of the prey around here at least he'd caught something.
Prize in his jaws, Copperpaw trotted back towards where he'd left Nightgaze, wanting to meet with her before heading back to rejoin the others.
---
By the time they arrived back at the nest, no one was in sight. "Hey, where'd they go?" he asked in confusion, turning back over his shoulder at Nightgaze. He didn't feel apprehension at being her without the others, as he was with his mentor, a Hornet no less. Maybe they'd taken too long.

Re: Thunderglade
"Sometimes, to think of alternatives you have to be shown there can be." Many cats took things at face value and didn't think beyond what they were told. Wolfhive saw this most often when it came to mentor assignments; cats believing they had to train solely under that cat when it simply wasn't practical. Seeing apprentices stumble over each other dumbly when facing an unfamiliar threat - bees - with the only instruction of 'collect' seemed very similar in concept.
If this was how WindClan punished apprentices for skirting patrols, Wolfhive was more than glad to not be a WindClan cat. He wasn't sure what the lesson was here when it came to patrols - had he experienced this when he was younger he'd probably play keepaway from this dusty skunk-lookalike. "Well, if it works it works." Wolfhive might consider honey collection for his own, but he'd at least advise them on how to prevent being stung first.
RiverClan hadn't been seen? "Odd. They rubbed their asses so hard on our border, you'd think one of them died." It was damn near suffocating, and Wolfhive was glad they had a river between them.. he couldn't imagine the reek if they didn't have that landmark. "Wonder if they've marked ShadowClan's... you'd think yours would be the first." Given it was WindClan's will RiverClan was driven out, one would presume RiverClan would want to show a strong front to the larger threat. But nooo, target the Clan they've repeatedly poisoned. Wolfhive hmmmed to himself, wondering if he could return the stink-war with something more toxic than just Clan scent..
... When movement caught his eye, and his demeanor took on a 180 change. Wolfhive had been fairly cordial with WindClan, uncertain and unwilling to share much of ThunderClan.. but not as aloof and distant as he was in his younger days and definitely not hostile. To this intruder, his hackles were raised and his muzzle twisted into a snarl. He looked one string away from committing a murder. "Hey loner! What the hell do you think you're doing on Clan territory?? Scram!" He had a few extra choice words for the trespasser, whom walked the edge of both sides of the borderline, and the only thing that saved KitKat from death threats was the presence of apprentices.

Re: Thunderglade
Nightgaze
Thunderclan Hornet
Purrk: Ultimate hunter(active)
So Cop was wanted to hunt with her, cool! Now that she thought about it, this was the better option since she could see how much her apprentice had learnt from that small tutorial. Leading the hunt as she stalked through the undergrowth, it took quite a lot longer than she'd predicted to find this mouse. Wonder why the scent was stronger than usual then...
As they finally reached the rodent, the small hornet stayed crouched down and watched with intense observance as Copperpaw made a move. Pounce was off but other than that he caught it! Just about to purr a congrats to her apprentice, another rustle under some bushes made her turn around and make a leap, catching a frightened mouse in her claws. Snapping her fangs around it's spine she killed it with a quick cracking sound. Two mice!
She wanted to hunt some more but they spent enough time loitering about. "Good job, Cop! Need to work on your pouncing but we can practice that back at camp! C'mon!" As the pair returned with their mice hanging in their jaws, a look of confusion came across her face when they were no where to be seen. Weird. Not very concerned, Nightgaze just shrugged and led Copperpaw back to camp. "Guess we took longer than expected!"

Re: Thunderglade
Crowtooth
Windclan Deputy | He/him | 51 Moons
Power Card: Cold Gust
Hmmm..... Well Crowtooth could admit that this thunderclan cat (who still hadnt properly introduced himself and Crowtooth could not remember his name.... Wolfhowl maybe?) had a point watching the apprentices. Even if to the deputy the alternatives of mud or letting the bees loose interest or rosemary or any of the many solutions could be come up with it evidently wasnt very clear to them. But how did you teach creativity in task assignment more gently otherwise? It wasnt like these cats would always be handed instructions on alternatives for tasks, like what to do if you couldnt find herbs on a patrol or if your patrol mates didnt turn up.
In the toms mind they didnt need instructions on patrol etiquette so much as they needed to open their minds, which'd be a much more important life lesson.
That was beside however, the information he was getting on riverclan right now was much more important.
Crowtooths muzzle furrowed as he thought, musing a raspy "So they are back after all... Had wondered if they'd died or somethin', stars knows we settled in the territories fer a reason, life outside is said ta be harsh....
Yer right it is strange though they singled yall out in this way an' not us. If somethin' turns up tomorrow Im willin' ta call it typical patrol slackin' but otherwise suppose windclan is goin' on alert fer some stupid plot."
Though he seriously hoped this wasnt the case. It'd be a pain to have to scramble to ready windclan then 'persuade' riverclan (AGAIN) that no amount of their revenge would be worth what they could dish.
The thought was just exhausting though and the wheezing sigh Crowtooth let out probably made that clear.
And what happened next was really only making the tom more tired. A rogue, in between the borders sure but given the thunderclan and windclan border were pressed against eachother it still meant trespassing. And even beyond that with the apprentices around even if it wasnt an intruder this rogue was a threat.
Leaving Wolfhive to manage scaring them off Crowtooth was on his paws, placing himself between Kitkat and his little group, ears flat and snarling.
"Kids. Wrap up an' start ta head back quick, we need ta be home soon anyways. Ill be on yer tail soon an' as soon as I got yer herbs tallied yer off the hook for this patrol mess, just dont let it repeat."
Well, they were off the hook if they did it at all which meant Snowpaw and Birchpaw were fine but Vixenpaw and his twisted ankle (not an escape, only a delay) and Cardinalpaw who was still in the wind were very much at risk. Thats not mentioning the warriors he'd sent out. Even if Wolfhive had given Crowtooth food for thought he'd be maintaining the rules he'd set for this group today.

“Be a voice, not an echo.” Cardinalpaw had..zoned out, to say the least. He had no clue what was going on. He heard Snowpaw(?) cry something out about bees, but he didn't think much. They just sat, zoned out, by the tree. He looked up when Crowtooth had told the apprentices to go back to camp, and he frowned. He hadn't even done anything, which he fully intended to. Damn it. Well..he wouldn't get punished for zoning out, yeah? Yeah. Nah he wouldn't. Hopefully.

Re: Thunderglade
Daywhisper • She / Her • Windclan Warrior • 35 +moons
Daywhisper spotted the deputy and his patrol before she even spotted the rogue/loner. She tilted her head, slowing her pace as she approached. Following Crowtooth's gaze, her eyes curiously rested on Kitkat. She sighed quietly, relieved knowing her beloved mate Crow was not the loner about to have their pelt shredded on the border. She wasn't sure what she'd do if she ever had to fight the father of her kits.
... well, at least one of her kits.
She shook the thought from her head, her green gaze falling onto Crowtooth once more. She gave an awkward nod and smile of greeting in Crowtooth and his patrol's direction. She was sure she hadn't missed any patrols, so she didn't feel as anxious as one might when facing the Windclan deputy. She glanced back toward the rogue/loner curiously.
She dared not speak to the loner yet, if she'd even have an option of speaking to the rogue, especially not with the deputy standing right there.
The white and cream warrior looked between the cats, did he expect her to follow him back to camp with his patrol? She hadn't been a part of it so assumed not, but she wasn't sure. She shifted awkwardly as she stood by, watching the scene unfold in front of her.
She also noted the Thunderclan cat but didn't feel like bothering with that specifically right now, all of her attention was on the loner and her clan's deputy.
(not sure if I needed to/should have tagged the whole patrol, so sorry in advance if any of you guys didn't want to be tagged /gen)

Kitkat backed away slightly at the Hornet’s choice words.
“..What? This is your territory?” she mewed slowly.
As she held her gaze towards Wolfhive, her brows furrowed in confusion.
“I’m.. terribly sorry, I didn’t know. I was simply looking for some herbs — my stock is very low, and this patch is close to my home. @ Rani @ BEAR. @ ollie @ Phoenix @ seeingstars
