The refractions of reflection that came in fragmented ice warps his face in such a way he does not recognize himself. He peers at it with sharp buttercup eyes, trying to decipher the planes of his face, the shape of his eyes, opening his mouth in a vain attempt to peer at his ivory fangs, stare at the rough texture of a pink tongue. It aches... and it aches sorely in a way that his hungry belly doesn't... something that rings in his head with a stabbing, twisting sensation. Why did it hurt?
Was it just a headache?
The solution was obvious.. to seek out the pale priestess whom he didn't idly fear and did not feel openly shunned by. Ravensong had not made the best impression, having stepped over him with lack of care or interest when he had just been brought to camp. Rookfang had been slick-furred with his own blood, raggedly breathing and begging for help. The corvid-feathered knight had frightened him and saved him all the same; he could not imagine a life without his big brother to protect him. And he loathed how eager Redpath was to aim his kitten-sharp claws at unseen enemies. It was in the name of practice but...
He slinks like a tumbleweed across the camp, leaning towards the dimly lit medicine cat's den with his jaw clenched firmly to dull the pulsing that lived just above his lip line, somewhere in the skull as if his nose were broken... or his jaw were misaligned. "Psssthhhht.... medithine girl," he whispers, the hissing sound of his "s" and "c" more alike a trilling "th" in enunciation. A lisped thing, unlike his usually delicate and articulate prose.
"Can... you help me?"
