Moondancer nodded lightly. Daydream didn't answer her question about how they were. But she didn't want to push it. She knew Daydream was a reserved cat, and Moondancer didn't want to push their boundaries. She cared about them, that was not it. She just didn't feel like pushing them at this moment, especially not in the middle of the clearing.
"Well, if you ever need help with anything, just say the word, alright dear?"
Moondancer spoke, giving Daydream a supportive glance. Be it with training or just having someone they knew around when leaving camp or the likes, Moondancer would do all in her might to assure that Daydream felt comfortable.
In a way, Moondancer had begun to see Daydream as family. As a kit, even. She felt responsible for them. She had watched them grow, watched them progress in life. And despite Daydream's many struggles in life, Moondancer couldn't be more proud.
