Dimmingsun stretches for a second too long, wanting nothing more than to pump feeling back into all of his limbs. He and Meadowpaw have been painstakingly checking over every single member of WindClan, now that everyone is accounted for, and it had taken nearly all of the day to do so. As devastating as the flood had been, Dimmingsun is surprised by the low amount of injuries and the like... though the severity makes up for it.

His eye travels from one cat to the next: Fogstare, Honeyflower, Lotuskit, and Cloverbloom. These Clanmates are not fit for continuing with the rebuilding efforts—Dimmingsun knows that they need all paws on deck, and that Dustystar has been rounding up patrols so that WindClan can return to their home sooner rather than later, but health comes first. If they collapse under the weight of their tasks and pain, they will do more harm than good. He makes a point not to glance at the meager pile of medicine that sits between himself and Meadowpaw. It's pitiful, really. Especially considering how nice their stock had been prior to this.

"I'm afraid I can't provide you better shelter than this,"
he admits, woeful about the tunnel that he had pushed these poor souls into. At least they have something over their heads... but it is a far cry from the safety of the medicine den. At least this is pushed right into the side of the hill where WindClan gathers now; more difficult to spot for predators. Still, it's cramped and smells stale. This is no space for in jured cats.
"Once Dustystar allows us to return to camp, you will have someplace better to rest at. This will have to do, for now."


For about the hundredth time that day, Dimmingsun looks at Meadowpaw. He wants nothing more than to assure her about this, to bring her spirits up... but that will have to wait. The two of them have to act as an united front now—and always.

He nods, half to himself.
"Would you mind describing your pain levels? Symptoms, anything of the sort?"
He creeps closer to them, sniffing at places that are obvious; like Fogstare's muzzle, or the leg that Cloverbloom obviously favors.
"That will help us get to the bottom of your issue."


Set out in the territory after the reunion of WindClan. Only the following cats may respond:
@Meadowpaw @Fogstare @Honeyflower @lotuskit @cloverbloom
 
Lotuskit, in the time to make sure every WindClan cat was accounted for, had fallen asleep. The aches of her wrist and mind had simply grown too much for her to bare while awake, and like any other child, she decides easily that she can sleep and simply avoid it that way. Eventually, however, she's roused and shuffled into a dark, dingy tunnel with a pawful of others. The dampness isn't something she likes, but the lack of light does not inspire the pain in her crown that she's grown accustomed to.

Dimmingsun requests information, and Lotuskit stays tucked into her mother's side, as if the calico could answer for her. Dimmingsun takes care in addressing the open wounds that span across most of them, and when he levels his gaze to Cloverblooms hurt leg, Lotuskit remembers that her leg hurts, too. Well, less remembers, and moreso understands that it's not supposed to hurt. It's a constant battle in her rattled mind to understand what is and isn't normal now.

"Bengt?" She asks the tom, who's name is no longer such, but she can't quite bring the new one to her tongue. "I - uh, my paw hurts. I don't know why," she holds up her wrist, her claws lightly flexed, as such is the only comfort she can grasp in the moment. "My head also hurts sometimes. Not right now, but - sometimes, yeah." Lotuskit, once full of curiosity and freedom, seems to find trouble with her own tongue. Hopefully one day she'll regain her warmth and excitement.
 

Cloverbloom remains silent while Lotuskit speaks, detailing her symptoms with some visible confusion. The poor kit had seemed to have a pretty rough time of it all, even by the current standard of the flood for WindClan. No wonder she wasn't in great shape.

Leaning more on her left leg to take some weight off the injured right, she began her own description. "I.. I think I got it from swimming? There was a lot of pain in it for a little while, and then it got weak and it was harder to keep myself above the water... It was worse once we were in camp and the adrenaline wore off, I think."

Slow Down, Just Breathe
Honeyflower had been fussing over Lotuskit and Bunnykit both since they were all reunited; Bunnykit had a terrible cough since they escaped the flooding nursery, and Lotuskit had a nasty lump on her head on top of her limping. Gently she nudges Lotuskit forward, a faint frown on her face when her daughter addresses the medicine cat with his old name.

"...I think she must have fallen and hit her head somehow, she has a bump on her head." She murmurs, giving a worried look up at Dimmingsun. "And Bunnykit and I have had this terrible cough ever since that night. It hurts to breathe too deeply, and sometimes I cough up this gross..." There's a small pause as she struggles to describe what happens. Water? No. It was too think to be water alone. "Wet ick..."

Cloverbloom also speaks up and the molly lets out a concerned chirp of a noise at her injury. Stars, they'd all been through so much already with the fire and now this flood... Her tail wraps around her two children, a rough purr leaving her in an attempt to soothe the kits. Perhaps to soothe herself as well... "You were very brave, Clover, I'm sure Weaselchirp is proud of you."
