long-furred, oriental-shaped, gray-and-orange calico molly with blue eyes; torn right ear

_________________________________________________

Wow, is it much hotter than usual? The dilute calico slowly trekked her way out from the cooler depths of the medicine den, her eyes wincing against the bright, golden, scorching rays of sunlight that hit against her deep lapis blue eyes. Her snow-white paws felt like they were quick to start scorching as soon as they hit the burning soil that laid within the middle of camp. Her blue eyes surveyed the clearing in search of anyone that would be willing to go out on a herb patrol. Hopefully they won’t be very too ticked off due to her sending cats onto herb patrols due to the rather intense heatwave that was succumbing over them, right? Hopefully that’ll be so, because Springpaw wasn’t going to be in the biggest mood to be dealing with cats that are going to be moody and picky from her simply sending them out to search for any herbs that are needed for the clan. Besides, the quicker they get it done, the sooner they don’t have to deal with this nasty wave of heat that was feeling more horrible than how a wave of greencough would be like.

[optional prompt: wow, it surely is hot out today! care to take a small break in the cool shade beneath the trees?]
Clearing her throat, the eleven moon old feline found the first set of cats to take out for a patrol, pointing avertedly forwards each of them with a dip of her head. “Okay, Wildtwist[ @Bean_The_Cat ],” the young molly called out to the tom, angling her tail towards his direction, “could you please take Harefire[ @RedLeif ] and Spiderpaw[ @umbreon_22 ] out to the territory and search for any potential burnet and possibly any celandine? Burnet has green-colored basal leaves and they occasionally have spikes of purple flowers along them; they usually carry no scent, but they are easy to find. They are usually located in sunny areas and could be anywhere inside of the territory. Celandine, on the other paw, is a yellow flower with four petals that are evenly separated. They are also located in rather sunny areas, and both herbs are essentially easy to find. Good luck!” She dismissed each of the felines with a crooked smile and quick swish of her tail, focusing her attention towards another group of cats that she felt would fit perfectly for being set out for a patrol on a hot day like this.

[optional prompt: the water looks extra tempting today. care to take a short dip just to cool off?]
“Spottedfire[ @Willooow ]!” The young molly thrilled as she called out to the tom-cat, a sleazy grin smeared on her face, “do you mind taking Glowpaw[ @Cinnamon~ ] and Berryfrost [ @~'Atlas-The-Lemon'~ ] out towards Sunkissed Creek to search for any marigold and cobwebs? I’m sure you already know what cobwebs look like, but marigold is a bright flowering plant with yellow-bright orange petals. Its stems are a bright green with a strong and sweet scent and smells like sour nettles. Has a strong taste. They are quite common around along the riverbanks at Sunkissed Creek and it should be quite easy to find them as they usually stand out against the grass.” She instructed, giving each of the felines a quick smile before turning over to find another group of cats to set off.

[optional prompt: wow, bugs are really active today, especially one in particular. be careful of any potentially buzzing beeeeees to come in your way!]
“Sharpclaw[ @Woodlow ], can you take Ghostpaw[ @Starfinder ] and Eveningdance[ @silverwynds ] over towards Firefly Cove and search for any chamomile and potentially some sticks? Drizzlecloud and I don’t need any large sticks in particular, we just need some lanky, smaller ones to help replenish the storage for sticks that will be required for any broken bones. Now, chamomile looks like a small white flower with a yellow center; kinda like a daisy flower! Just don’t get the two mixed up, a chamomile is much smaller than a daisy flower and grows in more clusters, so it should be quite easy to find.” She explained, calling each of her clan-mates off with a simple whisk of a tail towards the entrance of camp, giving them a sideways smile. Well, with all of those patrols sent out, hopefully there should be no problems!

Sharpclaw - The Grump
ThunderClan | Warrior | He/Him | 13 moons

Sharpclaw said nothing. Only sent a curt nod in Springpaw's direction before turning away from the dilute calico. He limped steadily on three paws, still cradling his left one to his chest. It throbbed with the gentlest of touches, pain spreading throughout like a wildfire with the slightest pressure. Like hell he was going to walk on the damned thing, so he'd have to settle with the humiliation of limping for the time being. Whatever, a little flesh wound wasn't going to stop him from providing for his clan. It wasn't like picking a few flowers and sticks was going to make him feel any worse.

A striped ear flicked, hoping to grab the attention of his two patrol mates "C'mon, you heard 'er. "Let's get this over with," he kept his gaze trained in front of him, scowl tracing his lips as he said this. It was obvious the sandy tom wasn't in a chipper mood that day. Then again, he never was, but on this particular day, he was downright sour.

The sun did him no favors as it tried its very best to sear the fur right off his back. Amber eyes squinted under the intense heat. Firefly Cove had trees right? What was he thinking, of course, it didn't. It was an open meadow with the only hope of shade being the looming cliffs lining its edges. Hopefully, this patrol would go quickly so he wouldn't have to stand in the blazing heat for long. With a flick of his tail, Sharpclaw shambled out of camp, eager to get this over and done with.

(I'll have the starter post in Firefly Cove set up shortly!)

he/him/his - 12 moons
A calico tom with a white patch up his side and blue/yellow eyes.
@Cinnamon~ - @~'Atlas-The-Lemon'~

The tom had nodded to the pale-patched she-cat, said ”Uh - me? O-okay, I-I’ll try-” and turned around in search of… wait, who was he supposed to go get, and to where, again, and why? Glowpaw? Who was… that? Berry-who now? Surely those names must be familiar to him, and honestly it did hit something in his mind for them both but…StarClan knows if he’d ever remember the whole thing of what the she-cat had said. Cobwebs? What was he supposed to do with those?

So he walked around to the other cats and asking ”Are you… Glow… something- paw maybe?” and repeated it with Berryfrost’s name, eventually finding the two he was looking for.

”I think we’re supposed to go gather… wait… hold on a heartbeat, I can do this-” his claws dug into the soil of camp. ”Cob…? And that flower - I think it’s yellow? At… a… sun… stream?” He looked at the two with sadness in his eyes. ”I can’t remember.”

Tigerblush ━ She/they
✿ ✿ ✿

Tigerblush was content with her catch, as well as her patrolmate's, happily trotting up to Alderstep to report. "Hunting patrol is back!" She chirped, face scrunching up when she accidentally swallowed a bit of fur. Yuck. "We got a few rodents and a lizard with no issues." She wasn't sure if any cat in ThunderClan would eat a lizard, but that was their problem, not hers, because Tigerblush would eat just about anything--lizard included.

eveningdance // he/him // 43 moons

So much for pleasantries. The tabby had never had the displeasure of speaking with the younger cat, so the nonchalant command receives a slow blink of irritation in response. Eyes fall closed and he heaves a silent sigh before padding forward to stand at Sharpclaw's side for just a moment until he begins to move forward once more. His long tail nearly hits the other in the face. Was it on purpose? Who was to say. Eveningdance's expression says nothing.

"Mind your manners."

The elder warrior offers a sharp gaze down to him before glancing over his shoulder to take note of the apprentice that would be joining them on their herb venture. Never spoken to that one before, either. Hm. Hopefully this wouldn't take too long. Beginning toward the entrance of camp, he walks slow enough that he won't get too far ahead without the other two.. Firefly cove was a personal favorite spot of his, so if the younger two behaved perhaps this would be a pleasant outing.

Silversong came rushing in through the camp entrance, leaving her marigolds in a neat pile in the medicine den before rushing up to Drizzlecloud.
"I'm so sorry we're late but it took us such a long time to find these flowers. We had to search everywhere to even get this many." The lie rolled off her tongue with a confidence that years of practise had given them. @Omari @Sunfall @~'Atlas-The-Lemon'~

@RedLeif [Harefire] @umbreon_22 [Spiderpaw]

"Alright, alright," Harefire mewed, getting up and trundling over. It was hot, made worse by his thick fur. He just wasn't feeling in it today, he just wanted to lie down and not exist until nightfall. Of course, that is not the way life worked, so he just had to bare his teeth and get through. "Lets try to go a shady rout though, eh?"

Ghostpaw grinned and pranced around her mentor sensing his irritation about something. She almost stumbled over her paws a couple times, but didn't! "Where are we going and what are we gonna do?"
