He cleared his throat uncomfortably. "How is it? Living in the nursery?"

Batsong glances at him and then lays on his side again, grooming his paws.
"Cozy yet boring and lonely. The kits can be a pawful but it's nice watching them play. How have you been? Anything new or different going on? Anything with Goldenstep?"
To him, the two were no secret. The she-cat liked to talk about Elmshadow quite a bit and Batsong isn't necessarily blind. He assumed the question was innocent enough. He was merely checking up on the tom.
"If you don't mind me asking as well... Why did you come up to me today? I thought you'd avoid me and the nursery because of Dovekit and Pigeonkit."
