Crunch crunch crunch crunch.
Rookbriar waded through a sea of colorful, brittle leaves, squashing some underfoot and scattering others to the side as he picked his way back to camp. Four deceased mice dangled by their tails from his mouth, their bodies swaying in rhythm with the wind-swept tree branches. Two of the squeakers were for his kits and two were for the queen who had recently moved into the nursery, her belly swollen with her own litter. Picking up the pace, Rookbriar breached the OrchidClan clan entrance and bounded toward the den where his new wards and their babysitter awaited breakfast.
"Good morning, Violetwing, kits," he chirped once he had deposited the freshkill in front of the den's five occupants, waving his tail in greeting. "Sorry for my tardiness. Crunchy leaves make hunting so much more difficult in Leaf Fall."
Hey you.

Rookbriar blinked in appreciation at Violetwing as she rose to greet him. He hated to keep queens waiting for freshkill, especially on the occasions he promised to return to camp at a specific time. Violetwing was not just eating for two, but caring for an additional four kits who were not her biological kin. On top of that, those kits could be pawfuls. (Why, not too long ago they had dug a hole in the nursery and snuck out of camp!) For those reasons, he was grateful for her graciousness. If he were in her paws, he might not have been as charitable.
"Oh, I'm fine, Violetwing," he chortled, a smile spreading across his face as he gazed at the kits--his kits. The thought made his smile grow wider. "Just fine. Even better now that I am with the five of you!"
The dark gray warrior nudged one of the mice closer to Violetwing with his nose. "Please, dig in. I'm sure you must be hungry. I'll watch the kits while you eat, and then you can tell me all about how you and the little ones are doing this morning."
