Kind about drunken aunt at first (6)
I believe the answer is:
nature
'kind' is the definition.
(I know that Nature is a type of type)
'about drunken aunt at first' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' ('re' means regarding or about).
'drunken' is an anagram indicator.
'at first' says to put letters next to each other.
'aunt' is an anagram of 'natu'.
're' put after 'natu' is 'NATURE'.
(Other definitions for nature that I've seen before include "Power underlying the world" , "Disposition, temperament" , "Creation - character" , "Character (of a person or thing)" , "Character, make-up" .)
