He had wanted to apologize- on his own time, preferably with prey. But now he just knew it was going to look like he was only coming to Magpiepaws and Cicadabuzzes paws to apologize because of his deep rat bites and injuries he'd sustained on this stupid hunt. His coat was not shiny, dingy, muddy- unclean. His fur spiked around his head and back in long tufts that spiked together. The blood that soaked through his fluffy tail and his shoulder, and pin pricks beaded droplets on his muzzle and cheeks. But when he approached Magpiepaw with a flick of his tail- he wasn't actually keen on getting help. It would be foolish not to- but he also wasn't trying to be seen exactly as he didn't want to be.
Viperhowl held the rat in his jaws, content from the bone he cleaned off. Hopefully the others actually grabbed the other chicken bone he had collected. He doubted they would leave food. But with his luck and how it had been going- he wasn't going to stay and find out. He dropped the rat at the apprentices paws with orange eyes steady on purple. "I wanted to genuinely apologize for lashing out. We're all hungry- unfortunately I've always been angry about food. I know it's not a rabbit, but it's something to eat. Others will be returning soon with more food." He said, lifting his gaze to look away.
Unfortunately, this would mean he'd actually have to give himself a bath, else he'd get infected and then be in a worse situation. But, it was what it was.
