Today, she has been told, she is four moons old. Or about there anyways, right? Her tongue sticks out as she ruminates on this. A large word that an elder taught her the other day. Ruminates. She had said it was long an unnecessary, but she didn't particularly care now. It had made her smarter, and she was going to cling to that with her claws dug in deep. No, now she was thinking of asking the most important of questions. Skykit's head is held high as she exits the nursery for the day- something she does without asking Milkheart anymore- heading straight to where an important figure is about to climb high into the boughs near camp.

"Hawkstar!" She calls, hopefully halting the King in her tracks. Skykit's tail swayed behind her, some of the leaf-fall litter stuck in the bush of her tail that she hadn't gotten around to cleaning out just yet. No, this is more important, and she knew she had to catch the King early in the morning or else she couldn't see her all day.

"Hawkstar." Skykit repeats. "I think you should make me an apprentice early." Skykit says, her eyes shining up at Hawkstar. The kit is inherently challenging the code- she knows it, trust her, given the amount she annoys the elders. But this she found more important. "Specifically next moon, I think. I'm ready for it." Skykit says, her shoulders squaring up.

LEADER OF SKYCLAN

.


Hawkstar peers down at the little thing with a bemused smile. Skykit was proving to be Milkheart's most challenging child in moons, always buzzing and bustling to move on to the biggest and better thing. Her courage and candor were certainly SkyClan traits, something that a good mentor would surely appreciate, but they created an impossible task in her childhood months: wrangling her for more than a moment. It takes all of Hawkstar's dwindling willpower to keep from snickering at the girl's bold proposal.

"You think you're ready to fly too," the pointed king responds in a good-natured purr, "every cat knows that a kit's paw-pads aren't strong enough to cling to the branches of our trees. The code says six moons, and I'll not have a day less for you."

skykit was certainly one of the more interesting kittens to be brought back from the border, swallowbreeze didn't envy milkheart in the slightest. she walked around the camp like she owned it, and the medic supposed there's some truth in that comparison— hawkstar was co-parenting the kitten in a way, and skykit clearly enjoyed bothering their king on silly things.

"being a kitten is fun! you can do all kinds of things..." swallowbreeze tries to ease skykit's potential frustration, taking a moment to try to think of something... cabin fever during the last few moons of nursery-life was real and difficult to curb. "like, um, mossball... you should play as much as you can! you'll miss it when your an apprentice."

Brightnose can't help but chuckle lightly at Skykit's eager question - the little one's eyes sparkle with a determination that brings her back to her own days of kittenhood... of course her request is denied by Hawkstar, as it should be, but she finds herself wanting to comfort the youngling to ease her disappointment.

"Hawkstar and Swallowbreeze are right. Six moons is what the code says for a reason, and you should enjoy being a kitten while you still can. I was eager to become an apprentice too, when I was your age, but trust me when I say that time will pass in the blink of an eye! You and your siblings both will be 'paws before you know it." She hopes that is enough to serve as solace for the kitten, though she knows it's not what she wants to hear. An idea pops into her head - "Maybe if you ask very nicely, I could show you how to do a really good hunting crouch sometime, okay? Then you'll have something to impress your future mentor with." Brightnose is busy these days, but she finds herself wanting to find more time for her other Clanmates, especially the youth - they're the future of SkyClan, after all, and everyone should do their part to make sure they are nurtured properly.

She's crestfallen in instants, Hawkstar's knowing smile causing a hint of irritation. Her chin lifts, eyes sparkling, but she supposes what Hawkstar says is true. Her paws are still awful soft, and falling from a tree seems uncomfortable... blue eyes shift towards the trees that spire high above, the soft birdsong. Flight. Her imagination goes wild for a moment, bounding from tree branch to tree branch, and for a moment, Skykit's heart sings in a way that feels just right.

It comes crashing down, and her head shakes. "I have to listen to you, Hawkstar, but I wonder if there's anything I can do in the meantime to train my paws..." Skykit's ears pressed against her skull briefly as other warriors take notice and speak to her. Skykit's eyes turn towards the first, and she 'hmphs' at Swallowbreeze. "I've been playing mossball for moons now. I need something new." She decides, Skykit turning away with a burning determination to find something new to curb her enthusiasm.

Brightnose speaks to her next. Skykit recognizes her as a part of the council, and the kit's head shakes. "I don't have any siblings." Skykit says, tucking her chin against her throat, but the proposition the council member offers her causes her ears to perk up. Skykit stands a little taller, asking- "When? I would really love to learn, Brightnose. Please?" She questions, her enthusiasm returning within heartbeats.

Brightnose blinks suddenly, as if she realizes she said something wrong as soon as Skykit voices it - Oh. Right. Skykit had been the kitten brought to the Clan from Fourtrees… She's not part of any litter amongst her denmates. Between Brightnose's own aversion to socialising and her tendency to get caught up in her own thoughts, perhaps she'd forgotten. I really DO need to get in the nursery more… and just talk to other cats more, in general... Her ears burn with embarrassment, but before she can even apologize for her mistake, the kit is already past it, begging to know when the silver warrior can teach her. She hums, a small smile tugging at her lips; "Perhaps this evening, when I'm finished with my duties. Don't let me forget, okay?" Brightnose won't actually forget, or at least she hopes not after her embarrassing slip-up, but she wants to make sure the kitten has something she can look forward to. It certainly wouldn't hurt for Skykit to learn a thing or two within the safety and comfort of camp; Brightnose had begged the warriors to teach her things when she was this little, and she's admittedly a bit excited at the idea of being able to return the favor now that she's grown.

ooc - i meant to put denmates instead of siblings how did i mess up that bad omg ;w; I'M ROLLING WITH IT THO LOL
