The tortoiseshell she-cat eyed the dumpy looking kit pensively- he had the eyes of her sister but everything else reeked of the sinister cat her sister had chosen as her mate. Amber pulled her eyes shut, struggling in a deep breathe to calm herself as those familiar eyes gazed up at her all whimsy and wonder. It was so achingly familiar, the empty hole in her heart letting on a pang of grief- she'd promised she'd raise Ripple as well as she possibly could and that promise started now.
She looked down at the kit and felt herself peering away, grimacing as she worked through the irritation and let her gaze soften upon him, he who was now hers to protect and shelter. "You are loved," she said plain and simple, trying to make the words sound genuine when she couldn't bring herself believe in her nephew. "You are so, very loved."
She'd said it to her apprentices before, in a world so filled with hate there was one thing she swore she would teach each and every cat. She needed them to believe they were worth more than what other's thought about them, that they were important and that they were loved. It was harder with Ripple, the way his pelt was a mirror of his father, the way he didn't seem to understand that his mother was gone- he kept asking about her. Yet she would try to practice what she preached and teach the first and most important lesson.
"You are loved."[255/300]
