It seemed that their leader was out, but with a dip of her head to Galerunner - I still can't believe he's a warrior now! Time sure flies... - Heather padded to the nursery, which had been helpfully pointed out to her. Her kits weren't due for awhile, but apparently another litter had just been born recently, and perhaps she could get to know the other caregiver, if their kits would wind up being denmates for a bit.
It was certainly a bit of a culture shock to walk into RiverClan's camp and see so many cats, but Ivytwist and Galerunner had prepared her for that. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, she felt... comforted. Her kits would grow up in a safe place, surrounded by cats who would know them and help them, perhaps even love them. Maybe she'd been stubborn, refusing Galerunner that first time they met, but maybe that extra time living as a loner had been just what she needed to understand how much better Clan life would be.
"Um, hello?" she mewed, poking her head into the den. "I just came to introduce myself-" Inside she could see this new caregiver, a gorgeous and sleek cat with two little kits snuggled up against her.
"Oh, they're adorable!" she mewed in a hushed tone. "What're their names?"

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ Baby do you know what you wanna hear?
Warmglow chirps a greeting to the unfamiliar cat.
"Good afternoon! It's nice to meet-" Their overlapping words are cut off when the new queen notices the kittens at her belly.
indent"Thank you!" She purrs warmly, but her brows turn up in confusion. Was this cat really so smitten that she'd forgotten to introduce herself?
"The colorpoint is Dawnkit. His brother, with the patches, is Bravekit. They're handsome already, just like their fathers." Mentioning the fathers at all still make's her heart weep, just a little, but Warmglow puts on a brave face. There's no need to dump all her problems on this young molly.
indent"My name is Warmglow. Would you mind telling me yours?"

The ocean is in my soul,
And it's pulling me back to shore.
I'm letting go of the weight that's dragging me down.

Wavesong rested beside her brood, a soft smile tugging at her maw as she watched young Troutkit drift into sleep. Yet behind that smile lingered a ghost of worry. Leafbare was slowly creeping in, and she could see the strength he had shown after birth, after the whole sickness... She saw it waning before her very eyes. She had assured Adder that Troutkit was doing fine, that he was recovering... But now? Now it seemed he was faltering once more. And Wavesong wasn't certain what else she could do to ensure that her child made it through the chill of leafbare... There was only so much a mother could do before it was out of her paws and she hated it.
' Stars, oceans, please... Don't take another of my kits from me... '
Blinking rapidly, she lifted her head as a new face peeked into the nursery, observing Warmglow with cautious curiosity and then with delight at the sight of kits. A light, genuine smile replaced the shadow of worry. Warmglow had already been a delightful addition to the nursery, and she had enjoyed exchanging motherly advice and laughter with the other queen. And now? Another face had popped up in the nursery. Was she curious about this soul that peeped in? Most definitely.
" Aye, ye got that right. " Wavesong purred warmly, her eyes softening as they swept over Warmglow. " Warmglow has herself some fine, beautiful guppies o' her own! " She let out a small, joyful laugh, careful not to wake the kits that were napping with her. She knew some of her kits were out exploring too inside of camp and she knew that there were plenty of warriors and apprentices who kept an eye on them. " An' I'm Wavesong! Pleasure t'meet a fellow lover o' th'kits! " Her gaze lingered for a moment on the other's belly. And a mother to be, too, it seemed.

Heather laughed, a bit embarassed at her words tumbling out too quickly.
"Oh! Right! Um, my name is Heather," she mewed, dipping her head to Warmglow. "It's very nice to meet you, and your kits!" Her attention was then caught by the other cat, and the caregiver's accent curled around her like a comforting blanket. It reminded her pleasantly of her days around the shipyard, listening to the manner of speech from the cats she observed.
"It's lovely to meet you too, Wavesong!" It seemed there were several kits in the nursery - her children would no doubt grow up with plenty of chances to make friends!
"I'm, well, I'm still pretty early on, but... I'm expecting kits of my own," she said sheepishly. "But I'm still pretty capable, so! If you need anything, just ask! I'll do my very best!"
