Willowpelt woke up and saw Smokekit playing with a small moss ball.
Willowpelt yawned and purred at her kit who looked up and his momma and purred back.
In the far corner of the kits playden, the black and white kitten sat, gnawing on her own tail. How come it didn't taste like the yummy food her mother gave her? Where was her mother, anyway? The thought of a strangely absent Violetfang had Wrenkit's ears drooping with sadness. She missed her mama, but at least she had Moonkit to play with!
Perking up just as quickly as she had been downed, the tiny kitten let her green hues eagerly scour the kits playden in search of her nowhere-to-be-found sister. "M-mooooonkit!" She yapped, praying that maybe perhaps her sister would appear out of nowhere. However, it was someone else who caught her attention, and after having tripped over her own tail and paws numerous times, Wrenkit managed to scramble over. "Play?" She asked, mouth forming an o of surprise. Other kits liked to play, too? Moonkit didn't really like playing, so Wrenkit hadn't known. "Wrenny play with you!" She squawked, pointing first at herself, and then at Poppykit.
[ @teddy. - Poppykit | If you haven't picked anyone for the plot, Wren would most likely misgender rightgender Poppy on accident and not even realize she's said anything ]
Flowers, flowers, flowers. So many flowers, so many colors. Ruekit could name some of them; red, purple, yellow, but she could see they were different kinds of reds purples and yellows. So, what kind were they?
Little Rue tilted her head thoughtfully. Did her ma knew what they were called? Maybe her siblings knew? She was getting tired of calling them Red or darker Red, or not-really-red-but-sort-of-there Red. The gray flame point looked around. Maybe someone could help her.
The forever queen had been tidying up the nursery, humming a soft lullaby as she did. Using her tail to dust the floor, she soon peeked over her shoulder to see one of her youngest kits; Ruekit. She looked a tad confused, looking at some flowers. With a soft smile, she paused her cleaning to speak to her daughter.
"Hello, my sweetheart. Whatcha lookin at?"

Little Rue just so happened to be passing by when her heard her little brother's voice. Her ears immediately perked up, her eyes widened. A smile stretched over her face as she bounded in the direction of Poppykit's voice.
"Pop! Pop! Can I play, can I?" The eldest of Dappledleaf's newest litter bounded up to her brother, giving him a quick affectionate head butt. She turned to Wrenkit, and gave her a squeak hello.
Little Rue was still puzzled over the flowers, trying to identify them with her less than minimum knowledge when a shape dwarfed her small frame. Her large, dreamy blue eyes looked up, curious as to who cast a shadow over her pretty flowers, when the little kit recognized her mother.
A grin broke open on her face as she gave a delighted squeak, and she stood up to playfully latch onto her mother's leg and rub her face into her soft, soft fur in an affectionate nuzzle.
"Flowers." She answered. Ooo, maybe her ma knew what they were! "Yellow ones and red ones and purple ones, but I dunno their names, Ma. Do you?"
Poppykit was attempting to groom himself but failing dramatically. his creamy fur sticking up in every direction and still little matts were protruding with odd bits of bramble clinging to him with all their might.
ah! a warrior!
Poppykit shuffled over, sitting himself at nighthounds paws with a small sniffle. "c-can you get the knots out, please? I'm not any good at it..."

NIGHTHOUND
huge, dark grey tabby tom with orange eyes and many scars. he/him
Nighthound blinked as a little kit shuffled up to him, looking down with a smile.
"Well, hello there, little one," he purred kindly, his usual gruff voice softened into a sweet tone. The large tom lowered himself into a crouch, making himself closer to Poppykit's height so he could speak to the young cat better. His head tilted to the side as he looked over Poppykit's messy fur, chuckling lightly at the little cream colored tufts that stuck out.
"Sure thing," Nighthound said, patting the area between his front paws, "Come sit here so I can reach, alright?"
“Mama Woolly! Mama Woolly!” The loud, squeaking voice of Ravenkit echoed throughout the nursery, the young molly practically dashing herself into the area with a huff of breath. Her fur had been coated with random twigs and particles of dust and dirt. Her adventure from just being missing had been… quite interesting as per say. Her yellow irises dashed around the nursery, looking for the specific molly that she had called for. Holding back a grumble from the itch of debris along her fur, she lifted up one of her little paws and vigorously shook it to get off an hanging twig that seemed to be stuck to mud. She had quite a bit of explaining to do. The black-and-white mottled molly huffed as the stupid leaf wouldn’t get off her fur, so she just kept roaming around the nursery, looking for Woollyfeather.
“Mama Woolly? I’m back from my adventure, I have so much to tell you!” She called once more, the dirtied kit finally taking notice of the siamese and gleefully running up to her. A wide smile flashed across her little maw, her small canids showing along her jaws. “Some stupid twolegs got my dirty, but I’m okay!” She continued, her eyes brightening up with glee as she continued looking up at Woollyfeather. The kit seemed entirely oblivious to the fact that she was most likely in trouble by her caretaker herself.
