Pocket Sized Eclipse

*licks eclipse before going back on watch duty*

*both Poppy & Aster fall asleep on top of eclipse, with rose keeping watch*

*lays head on top of eclipse once more*

*nuzzles eclipse, trying to be as gentle as possible*

I feel as if this is a very inconvenient time for me to be here.

*nudges eclipse slightly*

*all 3 heads stare at eclipse with surprise & shock*

no. the trial has concluded

That’s alright. You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to. I’m just… so confused.

What—What trial? Who’s on trial?

*looks at poppy with concern before looking at eclipse with disappointment*

an impromptu trial

How did you lose them?

chaos

That’s… nice…

What is going on here?

*looks disapointed, turning her head away from the small eclipse, almost as if ashamed with herself*
