I Guess It's Not Your Fault

The wheels in Gwyn's mind were turning as she examined the mushroom that had sprouted from Serenity's scrape, making the connection between the fact that it only showed up once the skin was broken. So it had something to do with the blood exposed flesh maybe combined with he mushroom spores she had been exposed to... The bit of information about how much it hurt to move it both surprised her and didn't. She had already decided that it was growing from within the wound instead of on top of the flesh itself so it must be anchored somehow either on flesh or bone. The thought made her skin crawl, but she didn't have time to really dwell on it as her friend questioned her on if she had something that could snip it off. "Um... Yes, yes of course." She turned and moved back into the room, retrieving a small, sharp knife that she had found among some other healing related supplies in the castle like bandages and glass jars. "Tell me to stop if you need me to," she said once she had the scalpel tucked firmly between her toes in one paw and had the other paw carefully stabilizing the mushroom. She started gently and skillfully slicing around the base of the mushroom to try and remove it without pulling it out.
