PAFP You're still in my heart || playing with kits

[flowercloud]

Flowercloud felt little paws climb her back- and her dim gaze lightened a bit - but otherwise she remained as if she was blissfully unaware. She assigned patrols as paws dug into her shoulders, finding placement to climb her large frame and she did not flinch, did not stumble on her words. Instead she rose, saying farewell to those that were going on patrol. Her body swayed as she walked, dramatically.

She swore she heard giggling- but the large deputy kept quiet, watching the other kittens playing, examining as she furrowed her brows and tilted her head. She wasn't sure which kitten was on her back, but suddenly a gasp escaped her. "One, two-" she begun counting the heads. "Oh no!" Her voice raised high in pitch, really selling the dramatic flair. "Guys! I don't see Yolkkit!" She exclaimed, large head throwing itself side to side before dipping to shove her head into the nursery then pull it out, a bit of debris clinging to her head.

@YOLKKIT

flowercloud - 36 moons - skyclan deputy - mentoring none

 

[YOLKPAW! YOLKPAW!]

Now this is, perhaps, one of Yolkkit's best ideas yet!

In all honesty, he'd just been bored with the game of mossball he and the rest of the kits had been playing. He'd strayed off to find something better to do, and, really, an intrusive thought finds him here, climbing up the deputy's form as if she were just a rock. Maybe she is, with how still she sits as she calls for the warriors to gather!

Flowercloud is much taller than him, he realizes as he not-so-carefully climbs along her back. He can see everything from up here! Why hadn't he done this sooner? He tries his best to be quiet as she doles out patrols to the rest of the clan, though he can't help the giggles that slip out at the warriors that do notice an extra set of eyes between the deputy's ears!

But soon, soon she is moving, and Yolkkit's paws begin to slip at the sudden momentum. He scrambles upward, holding on tight with an extra jab or two at the molly's back. How she hasn't noticed yet, Yolkkit isn't sure — maybe he's being more stealthy than he thinks he is, a good skill to have to be the best warrior ever! Suddenly, Flowercloud gasps, and another giggle spills from Yolkkit's maw as she counts the kits before them. And oh! She's realized he's gone, that he's missing! From between her ears, he peers down at his nursery mates, a plea not to tell her where he is. " Shh... " He wants to see how far this goes!

He ducks downward as she peers in the nursery, a movement almost made too late. Debris clings to his fur, shrouds cream fur in greenery. Couldn't she have checked behind the nursery first, where Songkit had only just found himself the other day?

 

[Berrypaw]

BERRYKIT

Berrykit watched inconspicuously as his friend set off on his task - he didn't look at the deputy directly, only stealing glances or giggling at Yolkkit when Flowercloud's head turned away from him. He was outside, seemingly playing with his friend, but honestly, they were only pretending, way too curious about Yolkkit's adventure.

And when Flowercloud started counting them, Berrykit widened his eyes dramatically and asked, "Where could he be?" turning his head left and right, even going so far as to peek under a rock that stood next him.

The deputy searched and searched, but could not find the kitten. And so Berrykit decided to give her a hint, giggling to himself. "Maybe he decided to climb a very tall tree!" And then he uttered in a hushed whisper, "Or a flower..."

I like it better when the sun shines,
Give me those good times, then I'll be alright

Ever vigilant, Milkheart watches over the kittens of Skyclan alongside the other caregivers. For the most part the main event was a game of moss ball- kitten sized of course much to the dismay of some kits that wanted to play bigger. Taking note of all participants, Milkheart quickly noticed one had chosen to sneak away in favor of playing another game. Ah, a classic, climb the largest cat one could see. In this case it was Flowercloud, who tooootally had no idea Yolkkit was being a little mischievous fella.

"Hmm, I do wonder.. Where could that little egg have possibly gone?" Milkheart couldn't help but let out an amused little snort, even Berrykit was in on it! "Perhaps, Berrykit- a flower so tall it reaches the clouds? I wonder where we might find one of those!" He chimed in, looking around Flowercloud while purposefully looking away from where Yolkkit was climbing whenever he caught himself almost directly looking at the kitten.

I tell you what— you better not be bringing bad vibes,
Leave your troubles behind, then I'll be alright​

[Teaselfeather Teaselfeather]

Let me die, let me drown, lay my bones in the ground
I will still come around when the time for sleep is through
Over hill, over dale, through the valley and vale
Do not weep, do not wail, I am coming home to you

.

Teaselfeather didn't join in the games, but they watched, quiet, content, while warmth bloomed in their chest. Their mother, bright with laughter, searching for Yolkkit in an exaggerated way, pretending with dramatic flair that she had no idea where the tiny feline had disappeared to. The sight tugged a gentle chuckle from Teaselfeather's throat. When a small piece of debris from the nursery roof landed squarely atop Flowercloud's head, Teaselfeather's heart squeezed so suddenly it stole their breath. A rush of emotion swelled up, too big, too warm, and their eyes stung.

How foolish.

They quickly brushed at their face with a paw, ears flushing hot with embarrassment. They were a warrior now, grown, capable. Why would a simple, playful moment make them want to cry? Why did happiness feel like it might spill right out of their chest? They breathed through it. Composed themself. And when their gaze returned to the scene, the kits, their mother's joyous search, Milkheart joining in with equal enthusiasm, they felt that same swell of love again... Gentler this time. Manageable.

What a good day.
