Sparrow thought a moment. "Voles, I love water voles," she purred smiling at the three kindly. "What are your favorites?"

Holly nodded. "Fine with me," she meowed, but secretly she was worried. What if none of them liked her? What if Wanderer didn't think she was right for one of the kits? What if... Holly shook herself. It'll be fine, she reassured herself. Just fine. "I'll go and hunt while they sleep," she whispered, trying not to wake the kits. Holly padded through the forest, scenting the air for prey. Her mouth watered as she scented a thrush, and soon saw it, pecking at a few poppy seeds that had fallen to the ground. She stalked towards the thrush, tail flicking silently in excitement, keeping above the leaves that littered the forest floor.

(I think it is Water) Hidden smiled and she padded over to the kits, curling around them. She purred and closed her eyes.

Sparrow watched Hidden circle her and the kits. She gave her leg a few licks before looking back at the three kits, waiting for their answer.

((Sure is, Water. Jump on in whenever you're ready.))
Patch looked thoughtful for a moment. "My favorite is squirrel. Wanderer says they can be though to catch, but I think it's worth the work," she responded with a bright smile. "I'm going to catch lots when I'm old enough!" Red looked like she was about to respond as well, but before she could say a word Hidden had made her way to the group and was settling in. The tabby she-kit, temporarily spooked, ducked down until she realized it was still safe. "I like voles too," came Red's quiet response once she had resettled, quickly glancing at Sparrow before returning her gaze to her paws.

Sparrow smiled at Red and thought a moment. "Do you like to swim?" She asked the shy kit calmly.

Alright, thanks!))
Lingering around in the brambles here wouldn't do good for much longer, Ryeleaf already knew what this small group was up to now, but it was hard to step outside to join them. Taking a deep breath, she slowly padded away from the bush, then went right to get to the clearing where the cats and the three kits were. She shuffled her paws while approaching Wanderer. "Err... I - I'm sorry for hiding so long - wait, did you even know I was hiding? Uh, sorry," she stuttered out awkwardly, then shook her head. "Sorry, excuse me. I'm Ryeleaf," she introduced herself to Wanderer.
"You... wouldn't actually mind if I were to talk to the kits here, would you?" She'd introduce herself first, then go over to the kits and get to know them, hopefully without awkward starters that time around. The golden-brown she-cat smiled a bit as she awaited a reply, copper gaze flicking between the cats.
(You can guess that I'm having fun fleshing out a character here, tbh).

Sparrow looked warily at all the cats gathered around. She didn't like large groups, it always made her feel as if they were ganging up on her. Instinctively she stood up into a sitting position, but stopped herself from getting up anymore.

Hidden smiled down at Red. "You don't need to be frightened sweetheart." she purred. "I won't hurt you, see, no claws." she said and held up her paw to show the kit.

Wanderer stood and stretched. Sitting and talking with the grown cats was all well and good, but before too long she'd be all by herself since soon the potential adopters would be making their way to the kits. "I'm called Wanderer," she replied, heading for the ever-growing group of cats a short distance away. Last she had seen Red was hitting it off with Sparrow surprisingly well, but no doubt the little kit would appreciate a familiar face in the group of adults. "And of course, you are welcome to join us."
Patch and Stub watched in interest as the adults filed in. Red seemed a little nervous, but when her eyes met Wanderer's the brown tabby gave her a smile and an encouraging nod. The kit relaxed a little more, ears in a resting position rather than angled back. "I know," she mewed at Hidden, sitting up so she'd be a little bigger. Oh,right, Sparrow had asked her something. "I don't know how," she responded, sounding embarrassed. "I'm still too little to learn, Wanderer says."
"Just another moon or two more, little one," Wanderer tossed in.

Hidden smiled. "Have you kits ever seen a wolf?" she asked.

Sparrow froze when Hidden mentioned wolf and sharply turned her head to her. "I have," she said in a low voice, her fur bristling. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself.

"I was asking the kits." Hidden snapped at her and turned to the kits with gentle eyes. (Lets just say, if she was a clan cat, her name with be Midnightstorm XD)

Sparrow narrowed her eyes and stepped closer to the kits. She didn't like this she-cat, she made her fur prickle with unease.
