private MOTHERHOOD & OTHER DREAMS [✨] Butterfly

[FIGFEATHER]

”So… have you thought about names?” Figfeather meows before moving to lick a clump of fur down along Butterflytuft’s spine. It was crazy to think how much they’ve all grown up, Butterflytuft had a mate and kits on the way, Greeneyes was a lead warrior, and Figfeather had taken a mate in Fantastream. There would always be a missing place in their little family where Snowpath and Daisyflight once stood, but she knows that they sit proudly above in StarClan watching their kin thrive and start families of their own.

”I was thinking and I got an idea for one that I couldn’t resist telling you.” She meows, her voice serious. ”Figkit… Y’know… after a special someone.” She licks her own paw as a humorous purr spills from her throat

”Or- or… if you don’t like that one you can’t beat Featherkit either!” She goes on, a grin spreading out across her face.

[butterflytuft]

Butterflytuft purrs contentedly as her younger sister grooms her pelt, eyes shut and chin resting on her paws. She peels open an eye to glance up at her when she asks about names. "A few, actually," She replies with a smile. They'd pondered over quite a few while awaiting the arrival of the little ones...but when Figfeather says she has an idea she pricks her ears with interest. "Oh, what is it?" She mews eagerly, whiskers twitching.

Figkit, She answers, and the tortoiseshell can't resist lifting a paw to her mouth as she giggles. "Figfeather," She mews as if to playfully scold her for her silliness, but she erupts into more laughter as her sibling follows it up with Featherkit. "Oh wow, those are some great names. How ever did you think of them?" She mews through her chuckles, grin spreading across her face as she looks back up at the marmalade she-cat.​

 

[FIGFEATHER]

Figfeather smiles, ”I dunno where exactly, just overheard those are the types of names they’re giving to super cool cats!” she mrrows with laughter. When the joke is over she settles her mind into getting more serious, really thinking about names, real ones. The idea of being the one to name a kit was so… strange, not something Figfeather has ever thought much about.

”Seriously though… what did you have in mind?” She asks curiously, hoping her sister wouldn’t wait until they were actually born to find out.

[butterflytuft]

Butterlytuft gives another light laugh, but that tapers off, too. She cocks her head in thought, trying to remember all of the ones they had talked about. "Dandelionwish quite likes flower names...he brought up Posykit, which is nice, and Sunflowerkit, too. I think they're lovely. I very much like Weedkit. Strong and resilient like their father, and he seemed to like that one, too. I also like Softkit...but oh, a ThunderClan queen just named his new kit that, didn't he?" She remembers Figfeather hadn't been forced to stay in ShadowClan with the rest of them and thus wouldn't know, so she just shakes her head.

"We both really like Daisykit..." She adds tentatively, eyeing Figfeather through her lashes. How would she feel about Butterflytuft naming a kitten after their late mother? Especially when Butterflytuft hadn't even been her biological kit? She hoped she wouldn't be upset...but it's a name they both truly adore. "Dandelionwish's mother was also named Daisy...we thought it might be nice to remember them both." ​

 

[FIGFEATHER]

Figfeather listens to Butterflytuft with intense interest. She imagines a Poseykit and sees a she-kit as bright pelted as her mother, gifted with confidence and a strong personality. Sunflowerkit she imagines to look much more like Dandelionwish, a noble but sweet and gentle tom-kit with dreams bigger than the forest. Weedkit in her mind appears brown-pelted with dapples of white, a feline as sturdy and constantly growing as their name applies. Softkit would manifest as a tiny, fluffy-coated kit with the meekness of her mother. Butterflytuft expresses reluctance in using the name, a ShadowClan queen had just named his newborn Softkit.

Figfeather’s whiskers twitch, Daisykit. Her eyes light up warmly and she grins, what a special name that would be. Figfeather feels nothing but pleasure and warmth at the idea of Butterflytuft naming one of her kits after their late mother. It was often Figfeather forgot that Butterflytuft had not been born alongside Figfeather and the rest, despite her couple moon age difference. No matter what Butterflytuft was her sister through and through, making her Daisyflight’s daughter just as much as the rest of the departed she-cats kits.

”It’s a wonderful name. Strong and pretty to represent two she-cats.” A purr rises in her throat as she looks to Butterflytuft, joy in her eyes. ”I love it Butterflytuft. She would too.”

The purr is the first thing she hears before Figfeather tells her how much she loves the idea. Butterflytuft hadn’t realized she’d been holding her breath, but she exhaled in relief as a smile creeps back onto her face. “I’m so glad you think so,” She murmurs joyfully. “We don’t know yet if we’ll use it, but it’s one of our top choices right now.”

“Of course, maybe we’ll meet them and completely change our minds!” The tortoiseshell adds with a laugh, squinting her eyes in amusement. “I’ve heard that happens sometimes. Another name just fits them more and all our ideas will be thrown out.” She supposes they’ll just have to wait and see.

She shakes her head and blinks towards her sister, her mind wandering to a new topic. “So…you and Fantastream, huh?” Her tone is prodding, eyes glittering with joy for her sibling but also with curiosity. She wants to hear it all!​

 

[FIGFEATHER]

Figfeather can’t even imagine. Naming kits must be a huge burden, but Butterflytuft and Dandelionwish by the sounds of it were embracing the responsibility. Nontheless, she thinks Daisykit is a wonderful name, and even if they don’t go with it she‘s sure Daisyflight appreciates and is honored by the thought.

When the conversation quiets down she is startled by Butterflytuft’s mention of her and Fantastream, it shows vaguely on her face. ”Oh- yeah. Me and Fantastream.” She confirms with a nod, knowing that Butterflytuft was pressing for more but… what did Figfeather tell her? ”…What do you want to know?”
