HE SAID, "WELL MY NAME'S JOHNNY, AND IT MIGHT BE A SIN
BUT I'LL TAKE YOUR BET, AND YOU'RE GONNA REGRET, CUZ IM THE BEST THERE'S EVER BEEN."​


OOC-retro to promotion! This would take place probably shortly before the kits started actually leaving the nursery, as I imagine my boy would have stopped in to pay them and Ora a visit pretty frequently after they were born. @Cherrykit @Glimmerkit @Eggbounce. @euphoria @HICCUPKIT ! @orangeblossom **EDIT** posted under main, as is my curse for having 700 tabs open at once. Next post will be with his sub.

For the first time since Johnny had joined Skyclan, things seemed to be taking a turn for the better. Their cats were back, their numbers were at max capacity, the killer that had been hunting the clans was dealt with, and finally things seemed to be looking up- for the most part, at least. He hadn't forgotten the cats they hadn't managed to recover, or the fact that they'd been too late to bring home Daisyflight. It was something that would probably sit with Johnny for the rest of his life.

As he'd learned time and time again though, life moved on whether you were ready for it to or not. All Johnny could hope to do was keep up with it.

And really, there was a lot for the bobtail to keep up with.

He'd been busying himself with trying to help the shelter cats transition on top of his regular duties as a warrior, but one unexpectedly new passtime he'd been drawn into was entertaining the kits so that the queens could have some time to themselves. For the most part he spent his time with Plagas, Doomguy, and the other kits who were already old enough to leave the nursery, but with Orangeblossoms kits having found their feet recently as well, his attention had extended to them lately as well.

Today though he had a special treat in store- one he hoped the kits would like. He didn't spend as much time at his twolegs anymore, which meant a lot of his toys were going left unused. And even if they weren't, it wasn't like the koi tabby was in short supply. His people spoiled him rotten, and he doubted they'd even notice if a few of them went missing.

His decisions had ben easy enough. He didn't want to bring too much, but he figured one of his colorful jingle balls would be good, along with his newest feather stick. It had taken a bit to get them back to camp - the stick clench between his teeth and the ball strategically kicked the entire way- and he'd be a liar if he said it didn't take him a second to manauver the first through the entrance, but eventually he found himself exactly where he wanted to be- the nursery.

To his luck it seemed like only Ora and the kits were in just then, and so he slipped inside with his gifts in tow.

"Morning Orangeblossom!" he greeted around the plastic stick in his mouth, carefully toeing the jingleball into the den. "I brought a couple gifts for the kits, if that's okay?"

Glimmerkit peeks out her head at the voice approaching her mother, foggy grey-green eyes wide at the tom with interest. Her pupils grow even wider as she sees what he's dragged back to her and her littermates, curiosity peaking immediately at the feather toy. "Hello, Johnny! What's that stick you have there?" she inquires, jumping on her paws as she waltzes over. "Never seen one with a feather on it! Must be a twoleg thing. How do you play with it?" She tilts her head.
