The birth of his kits is enough. It keeps him going even through the unimaginable grief and pain he feels to have lost his younger brother. He was a father now, and he had to be strong. For them. It's not difficult to do, to loose himself in his new role. He's been a brother, a mate, a lead warrior, a mentor but this? This is something entirely different and when he comes into the nursery to see them he cannot imagine anything else more perfect. Dovekit, Beetlekit, and Littlekit. All three of them so much more than he ever could have imagined when he had tried to picture what his family would be like in his head. When he visits today though, it's different and perhaps the kits can sense it but he and Roeflame had spoken, hushed whispered tones uttered softly while the kits slept. Today would be their official introduction to the clan. He presses his nose to the top of his mates head and for a short moment he closes his eyes and just lets himself be in the simplicity of this moment. It was exciting for him, perhaps just as much as he imagined it would be for them. "We'll be right outside, I'll watch over them don't worry" he says in what he hopes is a comforting voice to Roeflame before he turns to his kits with a wide smile. "You three ready to leave the nursery for the first time?" he asks, fluffy tail waving in the air and then, regardless of their answers, he would start ushering them towards that big wall of light that would lead to the camp, the first step of the rest of their lives.
"This is it!" he tells them "This is your home, ThunderClan's camp" he still vaguely remembers his first trip out of the nursery, how scary but exciting it had been, how much he had loved the way the sunlight danced through the trees and cast shadows all around the hollow. He still did. There was nothing greater in his eyes than ThunderClan, though now maybe he would have to adjust those rankings a bit because when he looks down at the three bundles of fur that are his and Roeflame's he realizes there indeed was something he loved more. Three somethings to be exact.
