Ironkit was also a pretty tall kit, so it was strange to see anyone larger than her. She pointed with her tail to the hole and gave a grunt. "Don't you see that puny thing up there? It may be small but it lets in every bit of cold air in all the forest. I'm trying to cover it up with this branch."

Since adopting the four kits, Burningstar had shifted into the nursery with them and Bonfirekit. As Bonfirekit seemed to desire to stay in the nursery and admittedly the four kits were pretty big, more suited to being kept in the nursery with the other kits, their cousins.

Burningstar had taken it upon herself to take earlier patrols to ensure she was back when her adopted children started to wake and she was surprised to come back to see Ironkit tugging on a branch.
"Ironkit?" She asked padding over, "What are you up to?" She asked glancing at the branch and then at the kit struggling with it.

Ironkit looked between the cats, a little bewildered. She let out a snort and shook her head. "I guess that probably would have been easier, but the hole is still way up there and I'm down here." Her face twisted slightly to the side as she thought about how they were going to manage that. Her eyes flicked up to Burningstar and, for a moment, she appeared a bit sheepish. "I was trying to cover up that hole up there. It's awfully annoying and is causing everyone to freeze to death."

Burningstar nodded, “Thats very thoughtful Ironkit, I’ll go grab some of that mud and leaves, Why don’t you go nudge your Aunt Soaringbird to come help while I grab some.” She offered.

(y'all I am loving how many people are rping on this thread c'

Ironkit's ears pricked at the sudden offer of help from the older cats. At first, she felt a little defiant and too proud to let them help. She then reasoned with herself. She would never be able to patch that hole on her own... 'Hmph' she grunted before padding towards the entrance of the nursery (? cx) to wake up her aunt. Before walking in, though, she stopped and looked at the cats, "Thank you."

The silver and gray form of Soaringbird was dozing beside some of her still napping kits, Skykit tucked between Infernalkit and Blazekit. The queen resting within a shadowed part of the nursery, away from the small hole that Ironkit had noticed and wanted to patch.

Burningstar nodded to Cannalily, "That'd be great, let's go grab some supplies and then we can assist the kits," She said with a purr looking back at Ironkit, "As Ironkit seems to have this whole thing worked out." She said looking proudly at her adopted daughter before she headed back outside to go find the needed materials.

Turbulentkit settled into his nest, waiting on everyone to return. The little tom wasn't going to be much use carring things, but he could help guide others. He eyed the hole carefully, thinking about the best way to plug the hole. 

Cannalily paused at the question. She had never really thought about that, as she had never done so herself. Most of the time she had seen it on other cats on their paws and bodies, but it would be hard to use that mud for anything, and you couldn’t well carry it in your mouth...

But she couldn’t just say she didn’t know. She’d look stupid in front of a kit. Then she had an idea.

“You could totally pile it on some moss and drag it to where you need it.” She said cheerily. She hoped Twilightkit would accept that.

(I used to love Naruto and Shikamaru was one of my favorite characters. )

Cannalily piled some mud on to the moss thrown her way and then cleaned off her paw. She was careful not to get too dirty, as mud had a habit of getting stuck in her fur. Her carefulness paid off.

“Alright, next we need some leaves!~” She said cheerily.
