Patchkit woke up, kind of well rested for once. He blinked, looking around the nursery slowly as his senses seemed to catch up from being in sleepy mode to beig in awake mode. No nightmares, no racing heart, or jagged breaths… and it was morning, and there were countless other kits already awake at that. Maybe all that play with Skykit yesterday took more of a toll on him than normal. He didn’t usually play that much, instead sticking to conversation and a game here and there. He should find Skykit to play again today!

The ginger kitten stood up and looked around the crowded nursery for any sight of the white fur that his friend had. But while doing so something else caught his eye, a curious kit… that he knew was from Skykit’s litter… or at least he was pretty sure she was. But the Leopardsong and Twilightstar litters kind of blurred together in his memory with how close together the two litters were born. But he was pretty sure that this one was a part of Leopardsong’s litter. He padded in their direction, shaking out his sleepy front paw as it did bees and hornets from sleeping on it funny last night.

Given the fact that other than basic appearance and which family they were from, Patchkit knew nothing about this cat so he didn’t know what kind of personality he should put on to best suit their needs and preferences, hopefully they were like their sister in the sense that they like more cheery and positive demeanors. Some cats didn’t really like those kinds of cats early in the morning, so on top of generally dealing with cheery cats, hopefully this kitten was more of a morning riser than a later one.

“Hello? My name is Patchkit! You’re Skykit’s sibling right, in Leopardsong’s litter? What’s your name?” The kitten asked politely, though he was still curious because if Skykit was going to be more of a long term friend than a one happence of playing, then it would do Patchkit well to learn the names of her siblings. It did make him wonder a bit about having siblings, what was it like? He was born an only kit, something that didn’t happen very often, so he had no idea what it was like. Especially compared to something like Twilightstar’s litter of like.. A billion kittens.

Magnoliakit sat quietly in the nursery, her small form huddled close to the ground as she listened to the soft rustling of the other kits stirring awake. The nursery was alive with the usual morning sounds—playful chatter, the soft thud of paws, and the distant murmurs of the queens keeping a watchful eye on kits. Her pale blue eyes blinked slowly, trying to focus on the blurry shapes that surrounded her. She couldn’t make out much more than hazy outlines, but the warmth and familiarity of the nursery were enough to bring her a sense of calm, even if the world around her often felt confusing. She wasn’t sure where Skykit was this morning. Or any of her siblings, really. Usually, her sister’s boundless energy filled the space around her, but for now, the nursery felt quieter without Skykit’s constant excitement. Magnoliakit was content to stay in her little corner, not quite ready to join the chaos of the other kits' games just yet. The thought of navigating the crowded space with her limited vision made her hesitant, and she preferred to take her time before stepping out of her comfort zone. Suddenly, a new voice cut through the hum of the nursery, and Magnoliakit’s ears perked up in surprise. A kit had approached her, and she turned her head in the direction of the sound, blinking as she tried to focus on the unfamiliar figure in front of her.

His voice was polite, friendly even, but she felt a flicker of nervousness stir inside her. She wasn’t used to other kits approaching her on their own. Usually, it was Skykit leading the way in their social interactions, her outgoing nature doing all the work for both of them. “Hello.” Magnoliakit responded softly, her voice a little uncertain as she tried to offer a smile. She wasn’t sure if he could tell she was nervous, but she hoped her voice didn’t betray her shyness too much. “I’m… Magnoliakit.” She added after a brief pause, her pale blue eyes blinking as she tried to focus on the shape of the kit standing before her. “Yeah, Skykit’s my sister.” She shifted a bit, feeling the soft ground beneath her paws as she tried to get comfortable. The nursery could feel so overwhelming at times, especially when she couldn’t see clearly, and now this new kit was talking to her. She wasn’t sure what to expect, but he seemed kind, not too pushy like some of the other kits could be. “It’s nice to meet you, Patchkit.” she murmured, her voice still soft, but with a little more confidence now that she knew his name. Magnoliakit tilted her head slightly, her curiosity growing despite her usual hesitation around others. “Are you friends with Skykit?” she asked, hoping to keep the conversation going. The idea of someone else being friends with her sister wasn’t surprising—Skykit was always making new friends—but it did make Magnoliakit wonder if Patchkit was as full of energy as her sister. Maybe, if he was a little calmer, she could get to know him without suddenly feeling too overwhelmed.

He nodded his head. Magnoliakit seemed much more... quiet compared to what Patchkit knew of her sister, Skykit. Though it probably wasn't very fair to compare Magnoliakit to her sister simply because they were sisters, he wouldn't with anyone else. Though he carried on in a calmer manner than he did before, not feeling the need to be as loud and cheerful. Though he still held a smile, "Yeah! Me and Skykit met a couple days ago, and we played some games." he explained with a flick of his tail, "It's nice to meet you as well."

Patchkit paused a bit and after a few beats of silence, continued the conversation, "Do you wanna help me find her? Or something?" He wasn't the best at carrying on conversations. With Skykit it was easy because he just bounced back off of her, but with Magnoliakit, he wasn't sure how to talk. "Sorry... I'm uhh, not very good at talking with others." He ended and nervously waited for the other kit's reponse.

The pale-furred kit blinked softly, her clouded blue eyes catching a faint shimmer of light as she tried to focus on the warm tone in Patchkit’s voice. His words made her ears prick, and a gentle smile tugged at her mouth when he mentioned playing with Skykit. Her sister was always bouncing from one game to another, dragging whoever she could into her endless adventures, and it warmed her to know that Skykit had found a friend in Patchkit. She couldn’t see the small flicks of his tail or the smile he wore, but there was a kindness in his voice that she could sense, a patient quality that made her feel at ease in his presence. “Yes,” she murmured, her voice thoughtful, almost distant, as if she were drawing up memories of her sister’s antics in her mind. “Skykit is… well, she’s full of energy.” There was a softness in her tone, a deep fondness for her sister that lingered in every word. Magnoliakit couldn’t always keep up with Skykit, or any of her littermates, and she sometimes felt like an outsider watching from her quiet little corner, but it brought her a quiet joy to know Skykit had friends who could match her energy. Though part of her worried Patchkit might be comparing them, his gentle voice suggested he was here to meet her on her terms, not her sister’s. There was a brief pause, and she shuffled her tiny paws against the coarse earth as she considered his invitation. The idea of searching the camp with him was a little daunting, but the thought of a calm, quiet walk—of having someone to guide her if she stumbled—eased her nerves.

She hesitated for just a moment longer, letting the sounds and scents of the nursery settle around her, before lifting her head slightly. “Maybe we could look for her together…” she said slowly, her words tentative yet hopeful. Her ears flicked as she added, “If you don’t mind walking a bit slower? I’m not… Well, I don’t move through camp as quickly as Skykit does.” There was a quiet laugh in her voice, a subtle attempt to mask her nerves. Navigating camp on her own was sometimes overwhelming, especially without her sister to keep her grounded, but something about Patchkit’s easy-going nature reassured her. A small silence settled between the duo, and she shifted on her paws, taking in his presence with a sense of curiosity. It wasn’t often that other kits approached her so openly; many weren’t sure what to make of her quiet, reserved nature. She felt the warmth of his patience, though, as if he were giving her the time she needed to find her words. “And… you don’t have to apologize,” she murmured, her voice soft and a little shy. “I’m not always the best at talking either, especially when I don’t know someone.” She offered him a small, encouraging smile, sensing his nerves as well as her own. “Maybe we can figure it out together?”
