He wasn’t sure who would dare say something so horrible and untrue, but it sounded like they were almost intentionally trying to hurt Briarmask. Surely they had to know it wouldn’t affect him, because he never paid much mind to that kind of thing. Acornfall held Briarmask close, trying to keep her from seeing the look in his eyes. He leaned forward and licked her head with long, soothing strokes. Trying to help calm her down, even though she was trying to comfort him.
It only adding kindling to the flames that she was trying to console him now…who would dare try and intentionally hurt such a kind-hearted soul? Who would be trying to hurt my mate? Acornfall did not succumb to anger easily, not in most situations anyway. But harm coming to those he loves, and threats made to the clan, are two that would earn his wrath pretty quickly. He could feel his heart melting and crumbling at the same time when Briarmask asked him not to make an “upside down smile”. That both the most adorable thing he’d ever heard in his life, while also just fueling his rage that somecat somewhere in his clan and upset her enough to bring them to this point. It was a betrayal in his eyes.
Acornfall worked hard for the sake of his clanmates. The least they could do was be respectful towards his mate! But he had to bring himself under control again. He didn’t want Briarmask to see him this enraged, she’d never seen him angry before and he didn’t want her to think he was upset with her. So even though his fur spiked, and his claws itched to break something, he forced his fur to lie flat and his claws to remain sheathed. He angled his dark amber gaze down, trying to catch a glimpse of Briar’s bright, pale blue gaze. “I’m so sorry my love.” He murmured, touching his muzzle to her forehead. “I had no idea these rumors were circulating. You must know they aren’t true in the slightest.”
Contain your anger Acorn…you’re a warrior after all. No matter how much he may want to, he couldn’t ripe the throat out from another cat for mere gossip. Not if they were a clanmate. He sincerely doubted Bumblestar would overlook that, even if she did happen to empathize with him. “I’m not upside-down smiling anymore,” he lifted his head to ensure she could see his face clearly as a broad smile spread across his maw, “see?” Hopefully, this was something they could put behind them. That is…unless he finds out who sourced the rumor. Then he could at least…address the issue with them directly.
Briarmask
♡ She/her, 27 moons, TC warrior ♡
Bri looks up, a soft whimper escaping her lips at his consolation. She's the one who's supposed to be comforting him! It doesn't seem to be working however, because she can feel him trembling (probably with rage, but she assumes it's due to hurt that she ever doubted him). The smaller calico plops down on the ground, pulling her mate down with her, her expression one of a hefty amount of corcern and affection. She cuddles into him, curling herself up against his doft underbelly- a soft, relieved giggle breaking past her and through her tears when he smiles at her.
"You're not?" She queries in a small voice, laying her head on his neck, "I'm so glad."
She sighs, twining her tail with his again.
"I'm sorry I doubted you," She begins, her nose twitching slightly, "My... my imagination just got away from me and I started to envision the scenario and then I pictured what my life would be like without you... and, and it was so horrible. That's why I started crying, I'm sorry, the tears just wont stop- I must look like an immature little kit right now. I feel like I've been so emotional lately. B-but anyway, my point is that I couldn't live without you Acorn, you're my whole world."

She swallowed back her grief again, she should find them right? That's what...a parent does?
Tentatively, Strawberryfur rose to her paws and began to poke around the nursery in search for her hoard.

Ugh. This was just too much noise. Azaleakit's gaze flickered around the nursery, bored out of her skull.

♡ Sunnykit ♡
Sunny's ears perk as she hears someone poking around the nest, signaling it's tine for her to strike! The small child pokes out from behind the family nest, her striped tail waving playfully in the air before she pounces- landing square on said cat's back. Woo! She sticks the landing! Oh, but she only realizes after the fact that her victim is Ma.
"Oh! Hi Mama, that was a pretty big jump, huh?" She chirps cheerfully, a broad grin spreading across her features.
She lays down on Stawberryfur, attempting to wrap her paws around her neck so she can nuzzle into her.

What in the- The pale ginger tabby was taken off guard by something landing on her back. Instinctively, she wanted to shake it off, but thankfully she didn't act on that instinct because a heartbeat later that "something" was one of her's. Part of Strawberryfur was tempted to nuzzle her Sunnykit back, but part of her couldn't bring herself to do it. She still struggled with this big hole in her heart, one that she had been hoping her kits would help to fill. "That was a very good jump, honey." She mewed back, turned her head to give Sunnykit a lick between her ears.
Strawberryfur forced a smile and a purr, in the moment having enough sense not to do something that might have a negative impact on Sunny's development. It was already hard enough that she carried the same name as her brother...definitely made it challenging. What now though? Is this when moms usually do...badger rides or something? She wasn't sure. Before Sunny went missing and Silvs was banished, Strawberryfur would have jumped at the chance to play with a kit like this. But now... "Please be careful up there though, sweetie." She meowed, lowering her body into a crouch so Sunnykit could dismount safely if she tried.
Ghostkit padded into the nursery, tired of being outside in the clearing. He quickly padded to his nest were he held a moss ball and quickly tossed it in the air. The kit flew after it, tumbling around.
