Slithers of warm air broke through her lips every now and then, the rest of the time it would slide through her nostrils as she inhaled and exhaled. The Skyclan queen seemed to lose her view on the kits as a larger body emerged through the entrance of the nursery, causing the female to lift her pools towards the feline. Shinefang’s threats caused a shiver to climb up her spinal cord, noticeable shudder in her shoulders as she pulled herself up from the nest. Pipitchirp maneuvered her way towards the medicine cat, before deciding to sit a few lengths away from his investigative self. Tail curling across her dusty-brown paws, Pipitchirp continued to watch the tom interact with Bee; her forest green pools keen and sharp.
The female listened to Shinefang’s string of words, and she nodded a swift yes to him.
“Of course, Shinefang. I couldn’t just leave him defenceless on the territory!” The amount of gentleness in her voice greatly stood out, as did her soft and almost-whispered tone. Pipitchirp kept her concerned expression up throughout the scenario, afraid that if she dropped it the kit would be deemed useless; or something of the sort. |

The gentleness in the queen's voice touched Shinefang, and his eyes darted between her and the kit, too embarrassed by his earlier outburst to keep her gaze. "Alright then, good," he said simply, silently cursing himself. Of course no Skyclan queens had abandoned their kits. They were good cats. But his nerves were frayed and his heart was aching, and when the old tom's heart started to ache, the claws came out. He looked over the kit more closely, scenting the tang of infection emanating from his little body. "I'm sorry if I was too loud. I lost my temper and that was wrong of me. You look like your not feeling so well. How do you feel?"
