"Do I, Coldshard? Or do you just want it to be unneeded." Thunderwave mewed calmly, Coldshard puzzled him somewhat. Occasionally, he would catch glimpses of a different cat, a cat who seemed for a split second to be.... happy, but then they would vanish in an instant as he seemed snap back into distain and a willfulness to be rude.
"No, it's not a joke." Thunderwave mewed. Is this really who you are Coldshard? He thought. I don't believe that.
Thunderwave gazed down at her kindly, "The hardest part is learning to ignore the hurtful and rude comments, but no matter what, just be you." He stroked his tail gently over her back.
"Thanks, I wish that weren't so hard."
"You're right, maybe I should be myself. The others would think I got replaced! That would be so funny." Her bright spirit was already showing through.
"'Hurtful rude comments.' Right behind my back," Coldshard just shook his head in disappointment. "Just be you, just be you."
Thunderwave was glad to see the kit's spirit returning. "I think you should." He mewed happily.
"Well, I think even you have had hurtful or rude comments thrown at you, though you may be more used to giving, rather than receiving them." Thunderwave mewed.
Lavenderkit laughed and bounced to her paws. She started stalking a scent. She recognized the faintest scent of mouse. She jumped and killed it. "Wanna share you two?" She knew Coldshard would deny, but Thunderwave maybe?
