Heathercloud The smell of old herbs began to fill the air of camp, mixing in with the scent of fresh-kill and Skyclan's members. Though the smell of herbs wasn't uncommon from time to time in the camp, this was going to be the one time of year where the smell was truly strong and permeated from in front of the medicine cat's den due to the fact she seemed to be cleaning her stores. In fact, a large leaf was laid out in front of the entrance already with some withered and old herbs no longer of use for the young she-cat. Heathercloud couldn't be seen at the moment, but clanmates could occasionally catch a view of the marbled bengal she-cat as she occasionally appeared from the shadow of her den. Back and forth she went in bringing a leaf here, a root there, from time to time a stem she didn't need or had no use for. At the same time she seemed to mutter to herself in her concentration, mentally making a list of what herbs she needed and what others she didn't. The end of leaf-bare meant it was about that time to be ridding of old herbs anyway, many which had died from the cold or from not being used and Newleaf was perfect for a chance to restock in what she needed. Soon, Heathercloud settled at the entrance of her den, visible this time as she placed a bit of marigold onto the pile what had a chunk missing. There had been a small part of it that had been good and she didn't want it to go to waste. Least, that was what the marbled bright orange she-cat believed personally. If a herb still had some part that looked good she tried to salvage it. But as she took a moment to sort through the old plants she could find she still could see she had gone through a small portion of her herbs. There was still several more she had to sort through but such things took quite a bit of time and she always was worried if she had enough or needed more of something. Sometimes there was an over abundance that she could get and had these extras stored away in leaf wraps for easy access and readily available should she begin to run short of her main supplies. Being a medicine cat in Heathercloud's opinion was just as rough and difficult as any warrior's or leader's job and she could argue many reasons why. But her train of thought was interrupted as she heard someone padding towards her den, her ear flicking in their direction to show she could hear them. " Someone hurt in training again? Elders have ticks? Someone sick?" Heathercloud inquired to the cat who had approached, not yet looking up as she carefully shifted through the dead herbs before her but she was still listening.

Frozenflame"Someone hurt in training again? Elders have ticks?Someone sick?"
Frozenflame shook his head to the older medicine cat. "No nothing of the kind. I was coming to ask you if we needed a restock of herbs." he flicked his tail in the direction of the dead herbs. "I think we need t do a little cleaning up before any other cat comes in here." he suggested knowing that she would probably listen to him. He used his tail to brush a few aside so he could get to the moss. Frozenflame crouched down and sniffed it. A bit stale he thought as he scrabbled it and took out the stale part. He chucked it outside and turned to see what Heathercloud was doing.

Heathercloud Hearing the voice of her former apprentice and now fellow medicine cat, Heathercloud lifted her head as she realized the one who had been walking up to her was Frozenflame. But with dead herbs in front of her giving off their faint sweet smell and mainly stale scent she had had difficulty identifying his scent where normally she would have caught it with ease. It was often how she identified her clanmates when her back was turned or she was busy with something. Her sense of smell was quite famous by now and it would normally not be a surprise she could smell someone, especially someone she shared her den with on a regular basis now. " We could use restocking yes. I was clearing out the old herbs already to begin with, just double checking to see what we need." The older she-cat told him as he went into the den behind her to see what else they could use. Turning her attention back to the herbs she had been dealing with, she carefully listened the herbs in her mind before she rolled up the beech leaf with her paw before biting down on it and leaping up the ledges to the camp entrance, her marbled brown form disappearing briefly to throw out the old herbs before she soon returned and jumped back down, landing lightly on her paws in front of the den. She took note of the moss the young tom had thrown out, giving a quick sniff at the piles and twitching her whiskers in thought. " Hm, I'll have to ask the apprentices to get fresh moss while we're out looking for newer herbs." She muttered mainly to herself before she came to the den entrance. " Find any herbs I might have missed Frozenflame? I might have overlooked some." She inquired as she came to join him in the den.

Frozenflame
"Nope none at all. I can go ask the apprentices!"
he volunteered to his mentor. Frozenflame looked around the den.
"How long has it been since my full medicine cat ceremony?"
he asked randomly with a curiosity of his past apprenticeship.
"And i'm wondering when i'll get my first apprentice."
he added quietly hoping that it would be soon
OoC: Sorry not enough time!

Heathercloud " My thoughts exactly Frozenflame." Heathercloud said, turning to look at her former apprentice who had shown to sometimes catch her thoughts without her fully stating them. But sometimes it seemed very likely cats who worked together often tended to pick up one what the others were thinking without truly thinking about it overall. She had heard it worked for the warriors in the same way, especially those who were close and trained together for several seasons. They worked in sync in battle and sometimes in hunting, moving as if they were one entity instead of two separate felines. It was almost a concept one would think would happen only in their dreams. But her thoughts were cut off when Frozenflame asked about how long he had been an apprentice, well how long ago it had been that is. " At least a moon or two ago, I have lost track really but I know it wasn't that long ago. Guess I've become so use to you being around I hadn't thought about it." The marbled bengal she-cat realized then that she really had not thought about the time that had flown since she trained Frapzenflane. She herself was still young and had many moons she could serve her clan unless something drastic happened. She was young, healthy, and strong, which meant she wasn't going anywhere unless she somehow broke the code or maybe expected kits and remained in the nursery, something that made her whiskers twitch in amusement since she would never stay there. " I know you may want your own apprentice Frozenflame, but you got to understand it will be many moons before you get your own. You're barely out of being apprentice yourself and I'm still young myself so it will be some seasons before someone will take your place and you take mine." She told him as she was looking at how much their stores were stocked st the moment knowing they needed quite a few pawfuls of herbs to be certain they were decently stocked.
