Paradisefalls started putting away the piles with the other stored herbs. "Well I need to deliver a herb mix to Stormbrow," he said. That particular cat was one of their oldest elders and often asked for herbs to help with his arthritis. "We are low on catmint but, I can't go collect that alone," he said. He didn't trust himself to do it alone without indulging in it.

Paradisefalls shook his head. "If you don't mind I'd like to collect the catmint with you...I'm trying to break my addiction. And having you there with me would help," he said. He starting pulling an assortment of herbs together and bundled them in a small leaf to make it easier for the elder to eat.

Paradisefalls chuckled. "I'll hold you to that," he said jokingly. "Seriously, if I can't handle it you'll need to finish collecting the catmint without me." He set down the herb bundle infront of Playkit. "Would you deliver this to Stormbrow, he's fond of kits. He tends to snap at older cats, like me though," he said. "I'll wait for you outside the elders den then we can go get the catmint."

Paradisefalls smiled as the kit hurried out of the den. He didn't follow right away but turned to the herb store and ate a small dose of catmint. He hoped that by reducing the amounts he could work his way off of the catmint. That and if he ate the catmint now, then while gathering more he might be able to resist the urge to eat it if he'd already had some. He swallowed it then trotted out of the den and stopped outside the elder's den to wait for Playkit.

[no prob. Night. by the way you can RP the elder if you want.]

[aw that's not fun.]

Paradisefalls blinked in surprise when Playkit almost crashed into him. He seemed to not really mind or have paid as much attention to the almost crash as you'd expect. Mainly due to the fact of the catmint he'd eaten moments before. "Alright," he said. Then headed out of camp and straight for the herb patch of catmint near a fallen log. He jumped onto the fallen log only to ungracefully fall off of it. "Whoa!" he yelped as he fell. The log was covered in moss and slime making it slick. He glanced back at Playkit to see if the kit made the same mistake or not.

The catmint was only two tail lengths in front of him now. He seemed to be avoiding looking at it and was standing upwind so as not to smell it either.

Paradisefalls had a bundle of fresh moss in his mouth. He'd just returned to camp with new moss to stalk up a bit in the medicine cat den. Though he no longer held official status as a medicine cat he was often in the den. Being a warrior just wasn't what he wanted to be. He'd rather heal than inflict wounds. He paused seeing Ishmael in the den. "Hello, what brings you here?" he asked after he set down the moss near his paws.

Paradisefalls yawned as he padded past the kits. Since his mother's death he'd worked harder than before as though he could forget his grief if he worked hard enough. He was holding some dried chervil in his mouth that wasn't good any more. He paused overhearing the kit's conversation. "You don't have mentors yet? Have you spoken to Fadingstar about it?" he meowed.

Paradisefalls smiled when Periwinkle brushed up against him. He'd pretty much grown up with Peri around and was always glad to see her. He shrugged at her question. "I'm not sure," he said. He'd only gotten here moments before his look alike 'identical' twin had. So he hadn't learned what was going on yet.

Paradisefalls shook his head. "Fadingstar is kind and just. He would talk to you," he assured her. "I'll go with you to speak to him if you like."

Paradisefalls padded into the main area of the den soon after Peri. He didn't know Loritakit at all, but seeing the kit in the den reminded him of his first time in the den. That had been when he'd first met Peri. He refrained from answering the kit as Peri had gotten there first and as he no longer was a medicine cat. He couldn't really accept or refuse help in the den as it wasn't his den now.

Paradisefalls smiled. "No problem," he said. He stood up and flicked his tail at Moonpaw indicating for her to follow. "Do you have anyone in mind you'd like to be your mentor? You can request a specific warrior if you like. Though it's up to Fadingstar for who mentors you." He padded into the leaders den, which at the moment was empty. The leaders certainly would be back soon.

Paradisefalls smiled at Playkit, he was glad he hadn't been the only one to fall too. No one was around here though so it wasn't like anyone would know of their ungraceful fall. When Playkit looked in his direction he meet her gaze and took a deep breath. Then he moved closer to the catmint and began harvesting it. He did so only using his paws, which made it more challenging but he didn't want to risk tasting any by biting at the stems.

His movements were slow but determined as the pile by him slowly grew. His confidence in his own ability seemed to be growing too as he grew more relaxed.

"I'm sure our leader can find you a mentor then," he said as they waited.

[i invited Frosty to this thread so she can post with her leader.]

Without a word Paradisefalls slowly backed away from the catnip. The wind had shifted and was blowing the scent of it right at him now. "Huh, um yeah that should be enough," he confirmed. He snatched up his pile of catnip and carefully climbed back over the slick log. He had wrapped a maple leaf around the catmint so he didn't have to taste it.

"Moonpaw needs a mentor, but it seems like Fawnstep volunteered just now," Paradisefalled meowed to Fadingstar. "So I guess we just need your okay on that."

Paradisefalls nodded in approval. "You're Wintersolstice's apprentice aren't you? She's lucky to have such a good apprentice. I trust I'll see you around sooner or later," he said.

Paradisefalls had been out looking for catmint in the forest when he saw Periwinkle and soon after Cyanspectrum go by. It seemed like something was obviously wrong. He had been headed for camp but changed his destination and darted after the others. He arrived soon after Cyanspectrum. He was speechless as he took in the sight. His fur stood on end in apprehension of danger. He paced around Treski in a circle tasting the air to try and determine if there was any immediate danger. After scenting noting but the blood of his leader he stopped behind the head medicine cat and his best friend. "Can I help?" he offered quietly. He was a fully trained medicine cat though he no longer held that title. It wasn't like he didn't know how to help but he didn't know if Peri wanted him to.
