In the land of obscurity

He flicked his ears dismissivly at Starling's words, it wasn't always a bad thing to have an obsession. Plus, it was something rather useful to have an interest in. He didn't have much knowledge of the smelly herbs, just a few basics that his mother had taught him growing up. A few useful tips to keep a fighter alive, that is how she explained her lessons. At least she could tell that the fire boiling in her son was meant for good, even though he scared her with his bipolar tendencies. But today with Starling, he didn't feel there lingering bite so much, only the one time at Starling's quick shift of emotions. But that was neither here nor there.

His pathway approved, he studied it was narrow eyes to try and find the best bath to get up on. His muscles coiled and ready, he hardly felt the light bump on his shoulder as Star spoke again. He turned almost bashful at the praise, darker marked paw twisting in the blades of grass as he yet again shrugged his gray shoulders. He had told him all about how he was a hard worker, and Cathaoir wished that he was better with words to tell his new friend just how amazing it was. But the tides had turned too quickly for him to think of anything to say, and he was glad for the distraction that came next. Bunching his hind legs he sprang forward, landing with ease on the sharp rock shelf that was one up from the closest to the ground. Picking his way up like a mountain goat, the gray yearling scaled the Mount until it was no problem at all. It only took him a few more leaps before he reached the first of the large shelves, a few bushes and greenery clinging to the barren rock. What did he say it looked like again? Blue flower and red thorns? No, red berries. Had he even mentioned the blooms colour? Shrugging his shoulders he looked down, watching with careful green eyes to make sure that his friend followed with the same ease. He was ready to grab him if anything happened.

All this time had given him more space to think, more of a chance to formulate that words he wished to say. "Clumsy paws can be a good trap. Make quick work of an over reader. Faking out is not often thought out." he muttered, sentences becoming less broken because of the time he had to mull things over. "I could... show you. I may have no rank. But teaching, that I can... try." he held Starling's bright blue gaze for a moment before he shifted his eyes away, not able to maintain the contact. "But. You have to take me. Exploring that is." While his vocals were a lighting teasing, there was more of a hopeful note. If Starling had been working so long on healing, he must have been around to see everything out there. Cathaoir had not... and he rather liked this boy's company.
