Yo)
"Well, I just want to be happy." Heathernose explained looking ahead. "I know you don't need a mate to be happy but I have always wanted one. Just can't seem to find the right one."

“I can handle myself!” Waspkit mewed at Beefur, “I caught a lizard the other day! I’m probably the best hunter in the nursery!”
Coalshadow brushed his tail against her side, “You’ll find a someone. Its just unfortunate you need you suffer so much to find them.”

"I'm going to be the best fighter!" Viperkit piped up bounding over to Slenderoak and her sister. "I'm going to be better than Jaggedtalon."
Heathernose nodded her head slowly. She looked around taking in their surroundings. "I still miss living out on the plains. There wasn't much cover but running through the open grass felt liberating."

Wrenkit rolled over, looking at them "Well I'ma be better than both of you then!" he mainly just wanted a bit of inclusion. He hadn't a clue where his mama had gone.
Beefur chuckled with a smile at the kits and their ambition. "I am sure you will all be amazing." she complimented.

“Yeah but I’ll be the best. Dad said I have strong paws! I’ll be a strong and faster fighter!” Waspkit said before she pounced onto Viperkit, “I can beat you both at a race anyday.”
Slenderoak stretched out and rolled to her side, watching the kits boast. “They all definitely take after they’re father.” She smiled at Wrenkit, she felt sorry for Heathernose. Being abandoned yet again by a tom, potentially a rogue. She wanted to help we as best as she could.
“That’s right. You cats practically traveled half the globe.” Coalshadow bumped his shoulder with her, “What was that like? Have you ever seen the ocean?”

Beefur smiled as they played. at least Waspkit wasn't trying to escape now. Temporarily distracted by her sibling and denmate.

"We will see about that!" Viperkit growled as she swiped at her sister. She was a competitive kit and wanted to out do her siblings.
Kestrelkit was off to the side and remaining quiet. He was a little smaller than his sisters and wasn't quite as bold. The tom remained quiet and stuck close to his mother.
Heathernose nodded her head. "Seeing all the different landscapes and cats was pretty exciting. Although, there was always a sense of uncertainty. There was lots of danger." Twolegs and predators were always a danger and they lost good cats to those beasts. "And to answer your question, we have been to the ocean."

Slenderoak curled her tail around Kestrelkit, brushing his fur, “You don’t want to play with your sisters?” She purred quietly to him. She knew he was the more reserved kit of the litter, while it was nice to have one kit that behaved, she wanted him to be more active. “You’re as quiet as a butterfly, sweetie.”
Coalshadow purred, “I like the ocean, I’ve only ever been there twice. It wasn’t a place my mate and I would visit often.” After feeling another eerie stare, Coalshadow turned his attention towards a dead tree with a hole. He stared at it, making out the faint shape of a young cat he was too familiar with. It’d been moons since his hallucinations with Coalpaw occurred. His claws raked at the dirt with annoyance as he looked back at Heathernose and acted as if nothing had happened.
“I’m going to be the strongest cat in all the clans! I’ll become Waspstar and have a million lives!” Waspkit said even as she tumbled to the ground as Viperkit attacked. She sprang up and pounced in her, batting her muzzle.
Ragweed came into the nursery, he carefully stepped over the kit battle and laid beside Beefur. He placed a mouse in front of her before he curled his bushy tail around her, “How are you feeling?” He said in a tone more quiet then his usual one. His eyes were twinkling with excitement, it’s taken him awhile to accept that he was going to be a father again. Though part of him was still scared of what the future would hold, he was ready to welcome his new kits.

Beefur smiled, brushing her face against his in greeting. "I'm doing well. Just trying to help Slenderoak watch after Heathernose's kits too." the yellow tabby looked down towards the mouse, taking a small bite or two from is as they spoke.
Wrenkit had gone back to where he slept, though he was well alert as he watched the play fight go on.

Ragweed was in an affectionate mood as he continued to nuzzle his mate and groom her fur, “That’s nice...Do you know when the kits are due?” He purred, wondering how many they’d have. He watched as the kits wrestled with each other,
(Ragweed starts crying at each kit when they’re born Gracklefur: plz shut up they’re just kits man Also Gracklefur: look at my children, I love them and will murder for them )

Jagged: My kits are better than yours ) "Well, I'm not sure." Kestrelkit mewed looking up at his mother. "Waspkit and Viperkit might not want me to bother them." There was that and he felt that they were much stronger and bigger than him. Heathernose wondered what was on his mind. There seemed to be moments where he would stare off into space. "The sunsets and sunrises at the ocean were always really pretty. I will also miss the salty tang in the air."

“They’re your siblings. Of course they’d want to play with you.” Slenderoak said, resting her head down to be at his level. “Besides, there are plenty of smaller cats in the clan that are small and still gifted fighters.”
Coalshadow nodded, “We can still see the sunset but agreed. It isn’t the same without the waves.” His tail curled more with her’s as they walked and talked, “Do you think the father of the kits -if he really was a rogue- will come back for them?”
(All the dads of the clan start comparing their kits. Ragweed: you should be ashamed of yourself, having the best kits shouldn’t be a competition....still my Leafkit could beat your kits at a race.)

((The moms are just in the corner complimenting eachothers kits agressively or something))
Beefur purred quietly "Soon. I dont think Gracklefur can pinpoint exactly when and if he can he hasnt told me so." She laughed just a bit before sighing. Things felt much calmer in camp now. A weight had been lifted off of them all.

Lol also think I'll change Kestrelkit's name to Mothkit. I think that fits him more ) "Really?" Mothkit questioned feeling hopeful. He had just assumed that the best fighters were big and strong. Then again, his mother wasn't that big. Heathernose shakes her head. "Not likely, he is dead." She said looking down for a moment. Her kits would never know their father. Firekit opened one eye to look at the two she-cats. "Only thing any cats need is brains!"

Wrenkit looked to firekit, running over and pouncing at him, "Nah! You need strength too!!" the small tom giggled

Coalshadow pressed his head against Heathernose’s, nuzzling it as he lifted it back up, “That’s good. They don’t need a rogue as their father.” He finally separated himself from her, “Though kits shouldn’t be raised without one,you can always say I’m their father.” He joked.
(Heathernose: Why are all toms trash??? Gracklefur: We just are)
Slenderoak nodded and started to groom her little kit, “Yes. There use to be a clan that resided by ours called Stormclan. The leader there was as small as an apprentice, but she was extremely fierce. She’d put a dog in its place if she wanted to.”
(I like Mothkit too. It’s a gentler sounding name)
Ragweed brushed his tail against Beefur’s belly, “Do you feel them kicking? How many do you think we’ll have?” He was interrupted by Waspkit who tumbled against Beefur before she returned back to fighting with her littermates.

Beefur nudged Waspkit back to her siblings gently before turning and looking back to her mate, "Occasionally I do, yes." she smiled with a short laugh "Ah I don't know. Perhaps 2 or 3?"
((I cant remember how many we planned for them to have but i feel like it mighta been 3 or 4 but idk))

I don’t remember lol)
Ragweed purred slowly, nuzzling against his mate. “I’m happy...it feels like Starclan’s giving me another chance.” He curled his large tail around her, “I won’t let anything harm you or the kits. I can’t make any more mistakes.”

"Ragweed, don't overwork or stress yourself out with worry. We are safe now." Beefur nudged him comfortingly. She knew it wasn't his fauly and his old mate and kits would surely agree with her. Ragweed had done nothing but been a good father and mate.

Ragweed continued to groom and cuddle with Beefur, only giving a small nod. Still it lurked in the back of his head, what if there’s a flood? Or a fox attack? He buried his face in Beefur’s fur and sighed, “I know Beefur but....” he trailed off, not wanting to talk about kit deaths

"I understand why, it just worries me." She spoke much more gently than was typical of her, giving him a lick to the forehead in comfort.

"That would be something." Heathernose remarked twitching her whiskers. She could imagine what her kits would do with this knowledge. "However, I bet you have one or two she-cats who are just dying for you to become their mate."
Mothkit widened his eyes in surprise. "Really?" He blinked for a moment confused about something. "Um what's a dog momma?"

Crowface let out a loud purr as his ego was fed, “I’ll admit there have been a few she-cats here and there. Don’t tell anyone but Ferngrove and I were actually mates but...well you know what happened to her.” He faked a pitiful meow, he wondered if she was watching him from Starclan. He swayed his tail from side to side, he could care less if she was waiting for him. Just now it took him a good minute to even remember what she looked like. “But since my first mate, I haven’t really been looking for a mate. I’m just waiting.”
“Dogs are similar to us, they walk on four legs but they bark. We can’t understand them either. They’re also much larger and have massive jaws, we’ve lost warriors to them before.” She stopped herself from going further as she didn’t want to scare him. Slenderoak licked her kit’s head, “But I promise you the clan will protect you from those beasts. We’re too far from them anyway.”
Ragweed started to feel light headed as the mess of thoughts, he opened his mouth to speak but instead buried his face in Beefur’s pelt.

Viperkit perks up when she hears what Slenderoak said about the dogs. "I want to fight a dog!" She called out leaping to her paws. She could see herself fighting a big beast. "Has dad ever fought one?" Mothkit nodded his head and continues to settle against her belly. "I bet dad has fought everything!"
"Either way, I wouldn't mind if you claimed to be their father. I'm relieved the haven't asked but it's only a matter of time." Heathernose remarked letting out a soft sigh. Espcially since Slenderoak's kits loved to talk about their father Jaggedtalon.

Slenderoak held back a laugh and shook her head, “No little bugs, he hasn’t fought a dog. But he did fight a porcupine once.” Her fur warmed at the memory, “His whole face was swollen and covered in quills. He was stuck staying in the medicine den for days.” She pawed at Viperkit, “But your father would definitely fight off a dog for you kits.” She said with the hope that they’d never come face to face with one.
Coalshadow laughed, “But that’d mean you’d be my mate. I wouldn’t want you to tell the clan that you picked ruggedly old Coalshadow as your mate.” The idea of having kits again, even if they didn’t share his blood, was music to his ears. Nightfrost refused to let him be apart of his kits’ lives, maybe Heathernose was his second chance at it. “Course I’m not fully against the idea.” He nudged her shoulder

Beefur frowned but didn't say anything else, simply resting her head upon his lightly and humming softly to her mate in hopes of helping him calm down.

Heathernose felt her fur grow hot and she couldn't help but look away. "Mmm I would have to think about it." She answered before shyly looking back at him. She wasn't apposed to the idea but felt hesitant. What if she ended up falling for the tom?
"Dad is awesome!" Viperkit said excitedly.

Waspkit pounced on her sibling, “Yeah! I bet he could even fight a bear!” She looked up at her mother, still sitting in Viperkit, “Can Dad be my mentor?” “It’s not up to me sweetie. That’s up to Owlstar.”
Coalshadow let out a low grumble of a laugh, “You don’t have to if you don’t want to. I was just messing around.” His tail uncurled with hers, “But I still would be fine with helping you out. Just know that Heathernose.”
