cloudyflight - @Spotty @thepirateking - for the small mention of bright

Still no Brightpath. This revelation caused Cloudyflight to sink down farther. Maybe this was just her insecurities, but maybe Brightpaw was avoiding her on purpose. The only time she had seen them was at night, and they never talked. Neither did she. why would she want to bother her love if the lean tortie was trying to distance themselves from her? Maybe her love finally realized that they could do better than Cloudyflight. Her ears flopped back against her skull. That was it, wasn't it? The thing she was most scared of- Brightpath realizing that Cloudyflight wasn't good enough. The tripod was still reeling from Cindersky's death, and now her mate might be falling out of love with her. This was horrible.

"Hi, Brightkit." She slightly squawked, forcing herself to wipe the downcast look from her face- and fast. "I'm... I'm alright." Hopefully the kit wouldn't realize how much of a lie that was. "How are you, Brightkit?" She scooted over so the kitten could sit beside her.
