Dewpaw nodded and watched Lilypaw leave with a sigh. He caught Tawnyleaf's attention to let her know he was leaving and headed out into the forest.

Tawnyleaf nodded briefly. "Don't go too far, and pick up some marigold while you're at it."

He flicked his tail to show he'd heard and kept walking until he found a nice, quiet spot deep in the woods. He came here quite often. After a bit, he started pacing and talking to himself, sounding almost like he was arguing. He sometimes got frustrated with himself and just screamed, startling nearby birds.

Coppershine woke up slowly, comforted by the feel of Duckwing’s warm body beside her. She snuggled closer to him and let out a little sigh.

(Cool!)
Duckwing purred, starting to clumsily groom Coppershine in his sleep. His tail twitched a bit and he seemed very relaxed.

“Hey, Duckwing, d’ya think we need to get up now?” Coppershine murmured.

"Mm… probably." Duckwing yawned and stretched his paws out in front of him.

Coppershine replied with a yawn of the own. She rose to her feet and blinked as the bright sun hit her eyes. “Hey, we should ask Dewpaw how the Moonpool went! Medicine cats usually see all sorts of cool stuff there, right?”

"Sure. Dewpaw doesn't really like talking, though." Duckwing sat up and smoothed down his fur.

“Well, that sounds like his problem! Come on, I want to hear about awesome medicine cat stuff! I used to want to be one when I was a kit, you know,” Coppershine said cheerfully. She prodded Duckwing with her paw.

"Alright, alright, I'm coming." Duckwing laughed, trotting out of the den with Coppershine. "Don't push the kid too much, though. He seems to be under a lot of stress."

“Oh, I’m not that bad! Relax, I’m not gonna yell at the guy or start beating him up,” Coppershine teased. She scampered out into the center of camp, waiting for Duckwing to follow.

Duckwing hopped after her after checking the medicine den. "Tawnyleaf said he went out."

“Then we can head for the herb garden and hunt on the way!” Coppershine suggested. “Since, you know, we didn’t actually hunt yesterday.”

"Sure." Duckwing smiled softly and headed out with Coppershine.
Dewpaw panted in frustration as he tore the bark from trees and ranted angrily at himself.

Coppershine meandered along the winding path to the herb garden. She scented a mouse in a blueberry bush, and with a leap and snap of her teeth, she caught it. As they approached the garden, she started to hear strange noises up ahead.

Duckwing looked up as well, his ears twitching. "Do you hear that?" They could hear Dewpaw destroying the clearing and still yelling at himself.

“Yeah…” Coppershine mumbled through the mouse. She quickly buried the small body, and stepped closer. “Is that… Dewpaw?”

"Yeah, I… I think it is." Duckwing watched quietly as Dewpaw fell to the ground, wailing loudly as he covered his head with his paws. "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" Dewpaw yelled at himself, shaking.

“Hey, buddy, are you okay?” Coppershine called tentatively.

Dewpaw froze, his tail puffing up. He fell silent and tentatively glanced over his shoulder with wide eyes. "Dewpaw?" Duckwing asked, looking worried.

“Dewpaw, we aren’t here to harass you. You’re clearly having a tough time, and if you want us to leave, that’s fine. Just… don’t be afraid to ask for help, alright?” Coppershine said gently.

Dewpaw stood up shakily and hung his head, watching Coppershine and Duckwing nervously. "I-I… this is where I go when I need to vent…" He said softly, glancing around at the damage he'd done. "How often do you do this, Dewpaw?" Duckwing asked reproachfully, glancing over at Coppershine. "Um… pretty often, I guess…"
