Rabbitpaw watched as his mentor packed up the herbs that she had carried out of the den, and he followed swiftly. It felt wrong, knowing how many are injured, and that he needed to attend to others first... leaving the first in pain for longer. But he understood that pain was better than death and Hawkfur, from what he saw was not doing well, it made his fur stand up. He would need to get better about wearing his heart of his fur. Freaking out would not help anyone, calmness, like Miss Lightningstorm. As he got better at reading injuries and situations maybe it will get easier? Though he wasn't sure if that would be the case for himself.

"Playing dead, was that what that... opossum was doin'?" He murmured to himself, the thought distracting him briefly from the quickly growing anxiety in his chest. He just... maybe Miss Lightningstorm- oh wait, Rabbitpaw pushed the root forward, pleased to hear that was what was needed from him, and watched as the medicine cat started to address everything. The burn was worse than it looked. Numbing.. would they use dandelion for that then? Burdock root, something he's hardly familiar with at all, seemed to be needed in burn poultices. "Yeah, one moment!" Rabbitpaw spoke as he went to retrieve the rock that Miss Lightningstorm showed him in one of his first lessons. He wondered if using the rock to grind poultices was more efficient than chewing it up, that was the other method that the calico mentioned.

"Here it is." He pushed the rock next to his mentor, "So burdock root, and dandelion? You said that the poultice was supposed to numb the wound as well..." Maybe he was being annoying, pretty much asking the same questions over and over and over again- at least that's what felt like he was doing- "I'm sorry, I feel like I could be helping more but I'm just... I don't really trust myself to do anything without approval yet." How long has he been under Miss Lightningstorm? He flicked his tattered ear and looked down at the herbs. His usual method of learning really really really couldn't apply with medicine. "Anyways! Where do we start with dressing burns?"

Rabbitpaw's ears flattened against his head as he watched Duckfeather start to point to her injuries... when she spoke it felt... unnerving in a way that he knew that something was much much worse with her inflictions than most of those cats that returned from the patrols. The thought was quickly affirmed as Miss Lightningstorm spoke. Rabbitpaw was quickly finding a space at one of Duckfeather's sides, his fur brushing hers as he braced himself to take as much of her weight as he could. "We have some nice nests down there, and a stream. Nothing to worry about, we got you." He walked alongside the other two felines as they started into the den to get Duckfeather settled down. "Should I get some soaked moss for her paws.. and maybe some for drinking? Would that help?"

She faintly listened as the medicine cat instructed her…alright, walk a bit…she could do that, right? She struggled but forced her body to a standing, almost immediately stumbling to lean on LightningStorm, then RabbitPaw came to assist. What a nice apprentice huh? She leaned some weight on the tom as she tried to find her footing and take little steps at a time. What the burden she was being right now, huh? It was displeasing to herself, even through her hazing thoughts she recognized such things. Stream…nests. Sleep sounded embracing right now…a soothing remedy to end her aches and struggles. She practically collapsed in her nest, taking a deep, struggled breath and resting her head on her paws.
