Enjoy your silence (Tagged)

(Nepeta for Heronkit. I'll tag the others as the thread progresses)

Squirrelkit wanted to get out of that boring nursery, she really wanted to.

She couldn't hear anything but silence, but she had eyes and she wanted to see new things. The golden-furred she-kit padded silent and slowly from where her siblings and mother were sleeping, not wishing to wake them up. Brightblossom was a good mother, but she didn't wanted to ask her if she could play outside in case she said no.

The deaf kit started to walk towards the entrance of the nursery, hoping that no one was watching her.

Heronkit shook as he woke, attempting to shake off the cold. He stared over to where he was when he'd fell asleep, with his mother and sister. By now, it was a foxlength away. As he heard pawsteps, he stood up to investigate.

As he crawled closer, trying not to speak, he noticed the figure of Squirrelkit. He ran up beside her. "HE- oops... Too loud. I mean, Hi... What's your name?" He said, not knowing that she could not hear. He was excited. A new friend, a new friend, a new friend! Heronkit thought. As he did, one paw tripped over the other and he landed on his face. As he sat up, he showed no embarrassment at all, only a smile.

Squirrelkit continued with her eyes set on her goal, deaf to the loud voice of the other kit. She stopped when she turned around and saw that someone was running towards her.

Startled, she prepared herself to be jumped at, but instead the unknown kit tripped over his own paws. Squirrelkit cocked her head, not sure as to what to do. This kit was smiling at her now, but she still wanted to be careful.

She padded closer to him, hoping that he wasn't hurt. She thought for a moment about how she could let him know that she couldn' hear, but then she decided that it was for the best that he didn't knew. She didn't wanted him to make fun of her.

Trying to find words she knew, she pointed herself with her paw. "Squirrelpaw"-She mewed, and then pointed to him-"...You?"

[Nepeta]

Squirrelkit, huh? He bowed his head in hello, in case she didn't hear him before. "Hello, Squirrelkit! Oh, that's right, my name. I'm Heronpaw~... Where ya going?" Now his head was cocked. He leaned to look around the kit, but quickly shut his eyes because of the light.

Awaiting her reply, he looked around the den in search of any other kits awakening. His observant eyes, seeing no movement but breathing, returned to Squirrelkit, smiling once more.

Squirrelkit tried to pay as much attention as she could to try to make sense as to what was this kit saying. He had repeated her name, said some other words and..."Eron..."-She murmured, mostly to herself. Eronkit? Was that his name?

When he looked around the den, she started to get nervous. He could get her mother to wake up, and she also wouldn't know if he was speaking or something if she couldn't see his muzzle well. "Look!"-She mewed, trying to bring his attention back to her. She then pointed to the outside of the nursery, trying to tell him that she wanted to go there.

(ERONKIT! I love it! Adorable little nickname~ Heron'll probably just go along with it XD

Oh, and are you ready to tag some others yet?)

"Look!" He got tense, his ears going back a bit, but then realized it was only Squirrelkit. "Oh, outside! Okay." He smiled and bounded outside, looking behind him at Squirrelkit. "You coming?" He teased. As he made it out of the den, he took a deep breath. The sun was a little bit over the horizon, he noticed, but still far from sunhigh. He looked at Squirrelkit. "What now?" He asked.

Squirrelkit sighed with relief when Heronkit seemed fine with going outside. She saw that he seemed to had said something, but ignored it. She instead focused her eyes on the new sight around her.

Everything was white for the snow, and Squirrelkit wondered if by digging in it she could find something. She started to play with the snow, trying to dig a hole.
