Just as he was returning, Birchcloud looks over at Shadeclaw and then towards the nursery, as if sensing the other warriors lingering concerns. The tom approaches the entrance to the nursery, taking a moment to think things out, and then looks back over at Shadeclaw. "We should cover up the entrance, just to be safe." He meows confidentally. "We're still not sure how the disease is spreading, but we should try to keep all that bad air out anyways." He adds, already scoping out thick vines to use. "The kits and everyone are depending on us to build something safe for them. we cant risk hesitation."
Dawnpaw nodded in agreement with the warrior and went to look for bigger sticks to use for the door that they could still push open and closed but keep the bad air out. She smiled at them and continued building
Alpinepaw nodded and quickly went to work. She walked to a nearby tree and found some wide sturdy bark next to it. Alpinepaw tipped it over to see if it was rotten. Apparently, it wasn't. So she lowered her head and carried the thick piece to the where the new temporary medicine cat den would be.

Alpinepaw [ @Highsnow of Matterhorn ]
Treetiger [ @SuspiciousMindz ]
What was with her and sticking him in healing situations. Yes, he had a miniscule bit of training, but c'mon now. This was getting a little excessive. With a huff of a heave, Spiderthroat scooted around where this makeshift sick camp was. He'd gotten poisoned last time...he'd be smarter this time around.
The Calico looked over at his former apprentice, a snirk coming from him as he kept the worry unasnwered. The imagination will expand.
Hopefully. He'd pray to any God that existed out there to make sure he kept healthy this time around. "Alright you two. Let's figure out where we're wantin this built." he hummed, his pawsteps heavy and rhythmic on the dirt floor of the forest. Once there he mapped out what exactly he was planning.
Eventually, eyes landed on a tucked away area, not too far from the entrance which was nice. Slanted rocks made out the entry way while a little hole was further within. It would have to be dug out. But, it was a good start. Sturdy. Reliable.
"I'm thinkin that. Any concerns will be ignored unless it's somethin usefull. Let's get to diggin and makin it bigger." he stated, stepping towards the den. Poking his head in, if he were to guess it was just scarcely large enough for barely under half of the herbs that could be held at camp. That wouldn't do.
"Wantin more storage space. Maybe enough room for one or two nests. Don't think we're needin much space for those sleepin in here unless they're passin since this camp itself is for the sick." he stated thoughtlessly, paws pulling at the moist dirt. The further he got the wetter the dirt, at one point it became mud. Perfect. His tiny little hole he was making was decent. This was turning out perfectly.
"Alpinepaw. I'm wantin you to focus on makin lil uhhh shelves to hold herbs. Or even makin flat surfaces. Nab whatever was brought in by the two patrols. I'm trustin you to make enough storage for what we're needin." he said to the apprentice.
Next he turned to Treetiger. "You're focusin on makin that restin room. Make it big, enough for cats to roll in their sleep if they had to. And for me to scoot around sick cats to help when needed if needed without worry. Same goes for you, grab what's needed from the pile." he said.
With that. He himself made his own job to actually enlarge the entire den itself. His coat swiftly being covered with dirt and mud. The wall slowly expanding , doing his best to make select 'rooms' . As good as a cat with no opposable thumbs could do. 'walls' seperating the rest room and the entry way where the herbs would hopefully be kept. He wasn't going crazy with this. It would be left forgotten soon, as soon as everyone get's healthy once more.
He was estimating, by the time Treetiger and Alpinepaw were finished with their tasks, he himself should be done as well.
Treetiger was given her instructions and gathered up with both Alpinepaw and Spiderthroat. It appeared her former mentor couldn't escape her yet. She stared at the deputy, eagerly awaiting orders. She wasn't sure what to expect or do during this process, but it would be fine since her much older companion would know.
Right, so making restin' spots. She could do that, yes. Treetiger turned on her toes silently, getting to work with moving the dirt around to make shallow holes she'd make nests in. They were spaced enough that a cat could walk between them if needed, but large enough anyone could roll around if needed.
Next, the warrior would go grab some supplies. She'd return with some moss and feathers and get to positioning them in the shallow holes, creating nests for the sick to sleep in. With the limited supplies, she couldn't make them super cushy, but she -- or anyone -- could add more cushion to them as supplies came in.
Larkswoop had nearly swept away many of the the twigs and leaves covering the clearing at Sunkissed Creek, though she made a pile of the ones she thought might be useful. She looked around to see if Sproutfleck and Hawkthorn were finished. "You two need help?"
Shadeclaw is silent, then he dips his head sheepishly, embarrassed and nervous. He can't bring himself to meet Birchcloud's eyes. Was it is imagination, or did it feel like Birchcloud was scolding him for his silence? He tiredly watches as the construction is finished. Only Starclan knew that the brief social interaction had drained him a lot more than the actual physical work.
Shadeclaw pads over to Bumblestar to inform her that they were finished with the nursery.
Hawkthorn pushed a twig out of the way with his tail and shook his head. "no. I'm fine." He meowed and looked at Sproutfleck. "Almost done?" He asked and shook a leaf off his tail.

Mothflame flciked her tail against the ground, kiciking up dust.
"Nightgaze, Vulturewhisper," her voice was firm and almsot demanding. "Let's get these dens built. We need a firm and stable den. We don't want it falling over." She held stiff bark in her jaws, and gestured towards the moss and brambles with her tail.

Oh thank goodness, all the construction crew was here and they had materials time to get to work. Subtly surprised at Mothflame's change in demeanour yet still determined to get this den built, Nightgaze obediently grabbed the moss and brambles the spotted molly had been signalling too and started marking out the den plan they were going for by drawing thin lines in the earth. This should make it easier to see where to put the materials for a strong base.
As Bumblestar worked on the structure with Raggedear, she took careful note of whoever else didn't show up like they'd promised and made a note to go deal with them later. For now, with the barrier completed, she moved on to pitch in with the rest of the construction. It wasn't long until everything was finished up, and the materials they'd gathered were all gone.
She stepped back to survey the progress. All three dens were completed and looked decently solid, at least sturdy enough to handle the weather and any rowdiness the quarantined cats got up to. With an approving flick of an ear, she cleared her throat.
"All right! Looks like we're done. To everyone who pitched in, it's much appreciated. Let's head back so we can round up everyone who's feelin' off and get them moved over."
--- OOC NOTE ---
apologies for the delay i capital-d Died. The mini camp is finished and all participants are free to head back to camp! Bumblestar will round up the ill and a few patrols for food & herbs and lead them over momentarily.
Due to a lack of overall participation, Mothpaw, Vulturewhisper, and Twilightforest are liable for IC punishment and will be dealt with once everything is settled. Thank you to all who cooperated!
With everyone gathered up and moved along, Bumblestar led them all to the temporary location. Still looked to be in good shape... after a sniff around to ensure no unwelcome guests had made their appearance in the short time the camp had been unattended, she invited the others inside.
"Weepingwillow [ @ChromeSilver_Hwaa ], help get kits 'n queens set up in the nursery." She nodded to the sturdy creation with vines hanging in front of the entrance. "There's the medicine den for now-" she pointed to the two slanted stones that outlined the den's entrance with a paw "-'n then we've got the den for the warriors 'n apprentices to share." A very large, overhanging bush reinforced with brambles and ferns to keep the weather out.
With all that settled, Bumblestar turned to the group in full. "If you're ill, take a seat somewhere 'n take it easy. As for my patrols.
"Spiderthroat [ @Starfall ]! Take Willowfrost [ @korok ] and Twilightforest [ @ollie ] with you to look for herbs. Stock up on whatever looks like it might be helpful 'n bring it back.
"Risingstorm [ @Spider. ], you take Cedarstrike [ @babysith ] 'n Vulturewhisper [ @HerbalTea ] to Willow's Rise for hunting.
"Skunkridge [ @Idiotic.Bean101 ], Snakefang [ @Concorde ], Mothpaw [ @Desert Rain Frog ], I want you three to grab as much nesting material as you can to fill out these dens 'n make 'em comfortable.
"And- Violetfreckle [ @vellichor ]." Bumblestar flashed her mate a half-smile. "You 'n I'll just see what we can find.
"The rest of you, when you've finished, bring back your stuff here 'n let me know you're done! Get moving!"
--- PATROLS ---
Patrols are to be completed and reported to Bumblestar HERE by OCTOBER 4TH, 11:59 EASTERN TIME. Failure to participate in the patrol your character was assigned to will result in IC punishment (unless your character can provide an IC reason to be excused). If you need an extension, request one by October 2nd!
As per their recent non-participation in the quarantine camp's construction, Twilightforest, Vulturewhisper, and Mothpaw are subject to harsher punishment if they fail to complete this round of patrols.
--- SICK CATS ---
Going forward, from now until the conclusion of the ongoing plot, ill cats ( + Weepingwillow) are to be roleplayed in this thread ONLY, as they will not be considered present in the main camp. The only exception to this is if you have an RP that was started prior to this post and are finishing that up.
This thread encompasses the temporary camp, all of its dens, and the surrounding area within Sunkissed Creek. Kits are expected to remain inside the camp's walls at all times, while apprentices are allowed to roam within the Creek's immediate area in the presence of a warrior.
Spiderthroat and Wolfhive have both been placed in charge of the camp as a whole, while Spiderthroat will also cover healing as needed; if your character requires healing and has been confined to this thread, they may fill out the typical healing form but ping @/STARFALL instead of the medicine cats. Weepingwillow has been placed in charge of the nursery and is responsible for the kits for the time being.
If ill cats are caught within the main camp threads, they will be forcibly moved back to the quarantine camp and may be subject to IC punishment depending on their rank or reasoning.

Firepaw padded up, searching for her mentor and Strawberryfur.
Hunting, okay. She could do it. She knew how to hunt. Frecklefoot had taught her. Not wanting to yell out names just yet, Firepaw sat nervously, hoping the others would notice her red fur and scarred body.
