"Shadowedcall..." She murmured, testing it out on her tongue. "You're one of the newbies, huh?" She sat down, facing him. That would explain why both smelled and looked slightly unfamiliar. She scanned him with her yellow eyes, taking in his black and white coloring. "One of the three who joined at the last announcement?" Gutworm's tail curled around her paws- well, one of them, as it wasn't quite that long anymore.

"How are you liking the clan?" She asked with a curious smile. "Can you swim yet?"

Can't catch a break, can't hold this weight
Wear me out, tear me down, I'll tell you, "I'm fine"
It's getting rough, I've finally had enough
To the point I'm feeling like it'll eat me alive

answers answers. what a funny thing, huh? words in general, how did he know how to speak at all? whatever. it didnt really matter too much to him anyway. "aye, but 'newbie' is not a term i wish t'... associate myself with." he would give her a glare for disturbing his peace, but he needs to be more social, so cinder is making him not do it.

"its good. strange but good. 'n no, i 'avent learned how t' swim yet."

Gutworm shrugged. "Sorry," she said in response to Shadowedcall's initial comment. "I just meant new to the clan, not incompetent." The tip of her tail twitched, and she ached to move, but Gutworm knew it was important to make at least a few connections. She didn't have many friends, after all.

When the tom mentioned his lack of swimming ability, Gutworm brightened. "Really?" she mewed, a bit too excitedly. "I could definitely help you out there. I'm a pretty good swimmer, you know. Not the best in the clan, but good enough to teach someone else." She kneaded the grass below her with her paws, tearing up little patches.

Heroneye
| she/her | RiverClan | Lionheart |

Heroneye continued on her way, looking for more horsetail. After this, she'd turn back to where they'd begun. Depending on what her patrolmates had managed to collect, she'd either try looking for some fennel or have them make their way back to camp. They still had plenty of time, but there was no need to keep Berryshine waiting for too long if they'd more or less found all they could.

As she fleshed all this out, she caught sight of another stalk of horsetail. She began padding towards it, when suddenly--

Splash!

Heroneye stagged sideways as her paw cut through a puddle and planted itself awkwardly in the dip in the ground. In her defence, the puddle had likely been there for some time and came to accumulate some of the junk (for lack of a better word) that standing water tended to collect--leafs and chunks of dirt and so on. In other words, to Heroneye's undiscerning eye, it appeared to be nothing more than another section of forest ground.

And now she was soaked. The puddle itself wasn't terribly deep, but the splash seemed to have sent an entire river's worth of water flying at the Lionheart. At least the herbs were still good... Probably. She sighed, silently hoped that she hadn't been seen (though her patrolmates would eventually see her soaked anyway, she supposed) and trudged on. She collect that cursed stalk of horsetail and turned back to meet with her patrol, gently shaking away drops of water as she went.
