"Pretty name! I like Honi!" They said brightly. "So, whatcha up to?" They asked.

"I- I'm biting this stick. Don't tell my mama she will think it unsightly...my teeth hurt and chewing makes it feel better." She admitted twirling the stick in her paws uncomfortably.

Airkit and Blossomkit tumbled around in the nursery

Juni cocked their head to the side. "Why don'tcha tell her then? It couldn't hurt." They offered Honi a bright smile. "You also look like you're running a bit low on stick there. Or was it just that small when you found it?" They asked, sitting down.

Flock Together [Tier 2] - Inactive

Being a medicine cat was... quiet. On most days. Simply checking in with the warriors. Sorting through herbs. Enjoying the moments one felt when one was unnecessary, because that meant that the clan was in good shape. In good health. The opposite would be devastating. Has been devastating. The medicine cat apprentice knew.

Yet little compared to the downsides of the job. When one lost a patient, be it because of lack of information, lack of herbs... or sometimes simply the fact that they were cats, and miracles were not granted by StarClan every day. There was little that compared to the loss of a life. Little that could bring hesitance and self doubt to seeing that warrior's just slip away. That queen not make it. That kit never take its first breath.

It was unbearable. It made her wonder what she was doing sometimes. If any of it was worth it. She would think that after seeing countless cats dying it would get easier, but it seemed she still hadn't reached that point. That moment where she stopped wondering what she was even doing here.

Lightningpaw paused, her gaze unseeing for a moment as she blinked, growing accustomed to the darker light the nursery offered. The scent of milk and moss buffeted her face, a stark contrast to the blood and death she had just witnessed. Cowtuft had gone off to inform Twilightstar of the events. A necessity. Hawks killing queens so close to the clan's camp was... unsettling. Which brought her to her task. Her job. The only part of her role within the clan which she loathed even more than losing a patient.

Telling the survivors. Oh stars... give her strength. Mintkit... Mintkit had gone to her. Trusted her to save glow and glow's mother. And here she was now. Bearing the news of her demise. She knew she couldn't have done anything different. There was no way to save the molly. If anything, it had been impressive that the queen had managed to bring down the hawk before perishing herself.

It didn't make it easier, though. To know that it was up to her to deliver the news. And so with a heavy heart, dainty paws treaded softly through the nursery's nests, reaching the pale Bengal queen and the young kit that had been left in her care. Lightningpaw wasn't certain if it was a blessing or a curse. To find the kit sleeping as she reached both felines. Large ears drooped in defeat, the spotted molly turned her gaze from the kit to the queen, opening her mouth, finding that for the first time in her life, no words came out.

Closing her maw once more, the lithe calico's blue eyes flickered momentarily to the sleeping kit before meeting Leopardsong's copper hues. With a grimace on her face, she shook her head, unsure of what to say. Because what could you say? Hey, your momma's dead. Cheer up. Better luck next time! An I'm sorry was to hollow. A simple I know how you feel too belittling. And with the kit asleep... what could she do? Did she really have the heart to wake the kit up for news like these?

| I saw that Mint was asleep, so I am not sure if Leopardsong would prefer to give glow the news herself once glow wakes up? |

Azaleashine lifted her head when her littermate, Bluebellflurry, slipped into the nursery. Her sister dropped a hare at Azaleashine's paws. The queen sniffed the hare.
''Thank you, Bluebellflurry.''
Bluebellflurry whisked her tail. ''Don't thank me,'' she murmured. ''You're my sister. You know I'd do anything for you.''

Mintkit opened glow eyes, finally feeling rested. The kit stared at the medicine cat apprentice. What was Lightingpaw doing here? Was her mom alright?
''Lightingpaw! Is she alright?'' Glow asked, even after living the hawk attack, glow was still an innocent kit.
Glow got up quickly and limped glow way to get in front of Lightingpaw.

[They/Them]

Juniperkit perked up as they saw a new cat enter the nursery. Had they seen them before? Eh. They couldn't remember, time to go say hi! The large kit bounded over, and getting closer they realized that there was another cat they couldn't remember if they had spoken too. Whatever. "Hi! What's your name? Are you a warrior? Why are you in the nursery? Ooh! Did you catch that? Do you have any kits?" They rambled on for a moment, switching between both Azaleashine and Bluebellflurry, probably confusing the both of them, but of course they didn't realize that. They were just glad to have another new cat to talk to, well, two in this case!

Azaleashine lifted her head. She narrowed her green eyes. ''Must you ask so many questions, Juniperkit?'' The queen sighed. ''No, I am not a warrior. I am a queen expecting kits. My sister, Bluebellflurry here, is a warrior, though.'' Azaleashine pointed towards her sister with her muzzle.
Bluebellflurry dipped her head. ''Hello, Juniperkit.''
