Storm Runner, healer: location, camp : feeling, cheerful, professional : tagged, Meillas, Cady
"Oh, just for now, really." Storm Runner shrugged lightly, his eyes sparkling. "Kendall went out with Thordane, I think Bane followed them, and some of the hunters are already up an about. Everyone else just needs to wake up." He smiled, bright and perky, clearly an early riser himself. Storm didn't mind being alone, he'd been alone for so many moons before now anyways, and it was one of his secret favorite things, watching the camp come to life around him in the mornings.
He was about to ask Meillas about what she had planned for the day, considering asking her to accompany him on his walk later, when he spotted Cady making her way towards them. Instantly he perked up, straightening his posture and nodding to her, able to sense that she was coming to him with purpose. It wasn't much longer before she was close enough for him to spot the bites she mentioned. "Of course, if you would follow me into the den?" He replied, leading the way into the healer's den. "Stand here for me." He directed her to a clear spot and did a quick circle around her, sniffing at the bite marks. Satisfied that none were horribly deep, he picked out some water soaked moss, gently dabbing at and around each bite to clean it out. Getting in close like this gave him the opportunity to confirm they were mostly shallow. Her fur had protected her from the worst, but he was sure they stung something awful.
"There, all clean." He stepped back, satisfied, dropping the used moss off to the side to dispose of afterwards. "Honestly they should start to heal up within the day's end, and as long as you don't go rolling in anything they shouldn't get infected. If you'd like anything for pain I can give you something, but they should also stop stinging soon if they already haven't." He collected some cobwebs to drape over the few bites that were still bleeding but he wasn't really worried about any of them. "If they still bother you by the end of the day come see me or Darkflame before you go to bed." He could also check on her again tomorrow morning but he doubted the bites would get infected.
Snowfall, hunter: location, camp : feeling, relaxing once more : tagged, Liannah
Snowy smiled shyly at her lead huntress, ducking her head and tucking her nose under her front paws. "I caught a rabbit." She admitted, peeking up at her. "I'll admit, I wasn't trying too hard, I mostly wanted to enjoy the night." She confessed, giggling a little bit, feeling that strangely welcome thrill of sharing this with Liannah almost as if she were sharing a secret. And it felt like one. Back in Bear Claw she would never have been able to just go hunting for the thrill of it, to enjoy the wind in her fur and the thrill in her veins. She'd have had to follow a regimented schedule and focus singularly on the task of feeding her pack. It had felt more like a recreational sort of activity, hunting because she enjoyed it, instead of hunting so she was not yelled at.
"I'm good to go back out again though if you want me to?" Snowfall offered. Her rabbit hadn't lasted long at all and she herself hadn't eaten yet today. There were a few other hunters out already but their pack could use a good night of feasting. It was always good to keep their strength up. Especially with the threat of Bear Claw over their shoulders as always.

Thistle, fighter: location, camp : feeling, restless : tagged, Ace
Thistle shrugged in response to Ace's comment, she herself not particularly caring if anyone else were to join or if they went alone. Mostly she just wanted to get out of camp and leave all the bad tempers behind for a little while. She noted Ace's disregard of Beast, and felt a small satisfaction seeing the alpha so obviously shunned. If only she had the courage to do so as well. But she'd not want Beast's suspicion on herself, hoping to either visit or at the very least catch sight of her brother later. It had been too long and she missed Thordane dearly. But she'd been unable to leave the night he'd stood with Kendall, and now she was worried if she tried and failed Beast's wrath would be doubled. So for now she was ready to just do her duties without complaint. "Lets get going then." She suggested, eager to leave.
Misty, pup sitter: location, camp : feeling, starting to relax : tagged, Amethyst
"Aw, come on, we pup sitters aren't all that bad." He chuckled lightly in an attempt to break the tension, rolling onto his side and nudging at her shoulder with his front paws. "Beast is a grump at the best of times." He added, feeling like he was out of earshot now that the alpha had moved away. "Best not to linger on his words too much." Misty hummed. "Just wait until there're some pups running around getting underneath paws. Then everyone will come seeking out our services." He couldn't wait for some more young ones to liven up their day to day life. While he'd be sorry for them to be born into this pack, new life was always exciting.
