Leafbare was a difficult season... The weather was brutal on everything it touched. Pelts, dens, territory... Herbs and prey were scarcer, heavy snow damaged most everything it piled upon... Leading them to standing before the first of the dens they were going to reinforce. Silently they enter the Nursery without so much as making eye contact with any of it's inhabitants to begin patching any holes they can see. Drafts letting in wisps of cold air are stuffed closed with their collected supplies. Empty nests are fluffed and given new bedding for whoever will sleep upon them when the time comes...
A sigh of relief leaves their maw when they're finished and they begin to collect the dirty nest material they've gotten together so they can dispose of it and move onwards to the Elder's den.

Rose stopped by to plant a garden here.
Larkwing has become somewhat accustomed to the coming and goings of most cats in the nursery. She's learned the gaits of the queens, the way some seem slower or some seem heavier, and she's been made aware of the pitter pattering of tiny kitten paws as they scamper about. A gait she does not immediately recognize catches her attention, and she blinks up to see Algeabloom entering, gathering scrap bedding to get rid of it. There isn't a whole bunch left - Salamanderpaw and herself had cleared the den of most of it not long ago... and then Lark had infodumped a bit on her tenure as leader and was feeling incredibly embarrassed about that, but they move on. Life continues and another menial task makes itself known to her and, busybody as she is, Larkwing cannot say no.
"Need some help?" She asks, walking up to the warrior with a little smile, hoping the answer is yes.
Moonpelt knew how tired the queens must be, catering to their kits, not able to leave the nursery much. It worried her. She poked her head inside, her eyes gazing around for a moment. It smelt warm and sweet in a way. She could hear some kits playing, some napping. The warrior step inside, careful of her step. "Does anyone needs a break? I could help watch the kits," She offers softly, hoping to help in any way.

Pigeonkit stumbled to the ground softly and he fluffed up his fur indignantly. "I was just playing!" he retorted. The small kitten gave his siblings a quick glare. They were no fun, no fun at all. "No one's handling me.." he whispered, stomping over to a spot in the nursery and resting his head on his paws.

The spotted brown kitten was laying on his back and staring at the wall infront of him. How'd this nursery even get made if it was rock. Cat's can't break through rock can they? Rootkit's eyes grew wide for a second, trying to imagine a cat breaking rocks and boulders with their paws.

''Playing doesn't justify your reasoning for going after your brother after telling him to shut up, Pigeonkit,'' Mountainspring meowed, bringing her oldest kit close and giving him a soothing lick between the ears.

A voice pipes up from behind and they're turning to come face to face with... Larkwing. A cat they had heard much about but never had the opportunity to speak with. Should they bow their head or something? Or just treat her like any other Riverclan cat? A brief moment of confliction roots them to their spot for what feels like an eternity before they heave a quick sigh to re-center their composure and conjure up a response.
"I'm... Just about done. But if there's anything else you can think of that needs doing in here we could do it together, if you'd like." Another pause and a glance around the space later. "My name is Algaebloom. It's nice to meet you. Officially, anyhow."

The she-cat turned her head, spotting Rootkit, staring..at the wall? She approached him quietly, looking at the wall then back at him."What are ya looking at little one?" She asks, quiet curious of what could be going through this tiny kit's head.

The silver lynx kitten was shuffled closer to his mother and he let out an annoyed puff. It was their fault that their so boring. Despite him wanting to stay awake and play, a yawn escaped his jaws. He curled his tail around himself and laid his head down. "Not sleepy.." he muttered, his eyes slowly blinking closed.
He turned his head to face a white long-furred she-cat. "The wall." he answered simply, flicking his tail to the space above him. "How are we surrounded by rock? Did we pound the rock away?" Rootkit's voice was curious and his green eyes glanced over at the she-cat waiting for an answer.

''Your eyes and your tone of voice are saying otherwise,'' the silverpoint queen murmured, wrapping her tail around her kits. ''Rest up, you three, and I'll let you play as soon as you wake up.''

The she-cat chuckled softly before putting a paw on the wall. "I believe the territory was like this when the clan was..created, maybe it adapted over time with the weather and maybe some warriors did help shape it a bit, but-" she paused for a moment. "I don't think we are physically capable of breaking rocks, though that would be interesting to see," she meows, swiping at the wall. It didn't do anything but brush some dust off of it. Moonpelt looked down at Rootkit. "Who knows, maybe one day we will be strong enough. Maybe you will be the first kit to break rock," she chuckles again.
