Russetscar sat up in the medicine cat's den, groaning, when he noticed Fernpaw curled up next to him. He purred despite his soreness, observing how adorable Fernpaw looked there, but he stood when he remembered his duties. The deputy grunted, his joints nagging him to lay back down, but he ignored the lingering pain and instead went to organize patrols and the like.
Fernpaw had been sleeping next to her father Russetscar, when he left the den. She started after him, telling him it'll only get worse if he moves, but she soon fell into a timid shyness, and retreated back to counting the herb stock worriedly. He's strong, but he's not invulnerable... she thought, slightly downcast.
