The turnout wasn't too bad, though Wolfhive did wish more apprentices had come. Part of this was their den after all! He didn't miss Maplekit's presence and lil stick, but had to debate on where to stick her in the groups - if at all.
"Had.. better days." Even the slightest of breezes now made him shiver, and Wolfhive sniffled as he wiped his muzzle with his paw.
"Don't think... should get.. too close,.. but can or.. organize at least." Why did
talking feel exhausting and have to hurt right now? Ugh.
Goldenpaw's comment made his ear twitch; at least he could do that without being in pain!
"You don't.. look so hot.. yourself." At least he could see some amusement in it, not bothered because yeah, he felt nasty. He furrowed his brow at Antpaw's "do we get anything?" question but didn't push it. Of course they got something - a den quicker! Granted, not all would be helping with that specifically; there was more to the damages beyond the apprentice den.
The presence of Snakepaw made his pelt itch. He hadn't seen her since he demoted her and told her to get out of his sight, and apparently she'd done a damn good job of it. He wasn't sure how he felt about her now that the initial anger subsided, but he was definitely uncertain of her capabilities.. Maybe she'd be smarter now that she knew her stupidity had consequences. If she went out for sticks and came back with a freaking tree, he might beat her with it. Similarly, if Nightwhisper went out for ferns and came back with flowers Wolfhive might use them to choke him. His patience for nonsense today was very, very thin - if they thought the herb patrol was rough, he wasn't sick then.
But! As long as cats did their genuine best, it'd probably not be an issue.
"All.. the dens.. need some sort.. of repairs. They... all leaked.. during the storm.
"Gonna split.. you all.. into groups. If.. if there's.. an issue,.. give me.. a holler." Wolfhive would deal with it, and probably lose what little of his voice he had left in the process.
"Risingstorm [ @Spider.], Porcupinesilk [ @HerbalTea],.. Antpaw [ @Badwolf], Beachpaw [ @Fawn],.. Mallowpaw [ @kittycatburmise], Brindlepaw [ @gs29513].. you're all.. gonna work on.. the apprentice den.. Clear the... debris.. and then.. rebuild." The reason so many cats were for this: it'd be a lot of work, mainly. The other dens had significantly less damage to them though Wolfhive did want them to be checked thoroughly to prevent another disaster.
"Rising.. Less leaf,.. more stick." It was meant to be lighthearted, but a reminder that Risingstorm's attempts of fixing up the den previously were very not-structurally sound.
"Seafin [ @PINTO BEAN],.. Acornfall [ @Luna16], Goldenpaw [ @nyme].. work on.. the warrior den." There wasn't much to say on this, admittedly. Seafin and Acornfall should both have an idea on the damages.
"..Cedarstrike [ @babysith], Skunkridge [ @Idiotic.Bean101],.. Cypresspaw[ @Eucalyptuspaw], Snowpaw [ @snowflake.], check on.. the medicine.. den. Don't.. let anyone... mess with.. the herb storage." This was mostly to Cedarstrike. It wasn't necessarily that he didn't trust the apprentices, but he wanted the den as undisturbed as possible. Between the sick and injured, moving herbs to a weird spot could be the difference between life and death.
"..Nightwhisper [ @ChromeSilver_Hwaa], Skylark [ @Cinderspirit], ..Burnedpaw [ @Luna16], you're on.. nursery duty.. Maplekit [ @Splint] can.. help you." He had debated who to put with Nightwhisper and Skylark, but wanted to keep Snakepaw away from Nightwhisper. The herb patrol crew had failed to see the issue with her behavior and he wanted to avoid any further enabling of dumbness. As for Nightwhisper himself, Wolfhive figured he'd vibe best with the nursery since he acted so kid-focused.
"..Breezepool [ @Apollo.], Larkswoop.. [ @paedyn], Snakepaw [ @Concorde].. look after.. the elders' den.. it ain't as... bad as.. the others.. but it .. still needs work." Wolfhive was curious to see how things would go between Larkswoop and Snakepaw, admittedly.
"Nightgaze [ @Morrigan], Peachpaw [ @nyme], Alpinepaw [ @Highsnow of Matterhorn].. the leader's den.. was leaking. When.. you're done,... see if the... apprentice den crew.. needs help." He had wanted to stick both his apprentices with Nightgaze, but figured it might be best if he split them up. Alpinepaw wouldn't care too much where she went, this he knew very well.
Wolfhive would pool on the ground like the wicked witch when water splashed her. Talking was exhausting, existing was exhausting. he just wanted to sleep. if they finished, they could bother him then. if they had issues, he'd come.
but for now. involuntary crash.

-- Important OOC Note --
If I missed someone, please let me know! I tried to make sure I addressed everything needed / assigned everyone who posted, but as of writing this I'm simply exhausted and could've missed something. If you tell me I can edit my post!!
Your cats have been assigned specific dens to work on! All dens have some form of damage, whether it's from wind tearing pieces away, water, or something else. The details can be largely up to you as long as the damage isn't super severe.
The apprentice den is completely collapsed, and due to excess water the ground is especially soggy where it once was. The cleanup and repair crew assigned is expected to remove the debris they can, but it may be a good idea to have the den rebuilt on the other side of the scorched tree.
Medicine Cat Den and Leader Den posts can go here to avoid flooding their respective threads, but for the repairers of the other dens: you can post in those threads if you wish to help keep things more organized! Have 1 cat from your patrol report back to Wolfhive when you're finished.
Repairs are due by 9/12 @ 11:59 Eastern Time. If you need an extension, please tell me ASAP or Wolf will kick ur booty
