Lil' doodle because I was thinking about it but I think once Aim finds out about Flicker's crashes probably by accident (nap gone wrong, very very distracted baby dunno) he would sit with her until it ends (then some questions but otherwise very calm reaction I doubt Axel would be calm uh)
I wrote this for AC's birthday based on a discussion we had on discord and I forgot to post it after so here it is! Have this Flicker-Maud interaction oneshot ^^
Old and new, better and worse
Maud was staring at a tree in the garden when the pitter-patter of small feet made her whirl around and look at a smiling Flicker. She was holding her head under one arm and a helmet? under the other.
"Maud!!! Hi!"Â
The taller one merely hummed and watched the child run towards the swings.Â
She watched her secure her head on it, using the helmet and a system that was clearly installed solely for her, and started pushing the swing softly with her body. Up and down, up and down.
...She seemed so small now. How old was she in this timeline again?Â
Her new former sister's white eyelights met her mismatched eyes for a fleeting moment. Flicker slowed her activity and smiled at her as wide as her mouth could.
"Dad made me this, it's cool it's cool!"
Maud knew it probably didn't show outside how weirded out she was by seeing and talking to a past shape of the big sister that lost against the glitches. The empty husk she had left behind. Her fingers silently found their way to the gauntlet that replaced her limb, mindlessly rubbing the bits poking out.
"Yeah."Â
They stayed silent for a moment, the gentle squeaks of the swing filling the space.Â
Until Flicker decided to speak again.
"Hey Maud?"
Maud gestured with her chin that she was listening.
"Anko said you're from uh you're from uh the future?"
Close enough.
"How I am, all grown up?"
She certainly did not want to talk about that.
"Tell meeeee!"
This Flicker was so much worse than her own.Â
The girl unfastened her head and came closer and bounced on her feet right in front of her.
Something told her the kid would not stop until she at least answered something.
âYou were taller.â
Please, be satisfied.
Flicker extended her arms to push her face closer to Maudâs.
âOOOOH HOW TALL? LIKE THE TREE?â she let go of one side of her skull to point at a huge cherry tree and promptly wobbled to catch her skull after.
Maud took a step back, eager to put some distance between them.
âNo, I mean, even on Pebble, you wouldnât reach that high-â
That thing had been enormous once it reached its adult sizeâŚ
âPee-bel?âÂ
âPebble. Your pet.â
What was it even? It vaguely looked like a dog, beside the scaly tail⌠But it had been far too smart for her taste⌠Well, it was gone. Like her Flicker. Could this conversation leave as well?
âI hab⌠I have a pet? WHERE?â
Now that enthusiasm was just grating her the whole wrong way. Shut up with this mouth. Stop looking at her with these eyes. She didnât like it.
âNowhere, the glitches got to it too.â
The words left her fast, too fast to stop it. Something twisted inside of her at the surprise on the childâs face.
She looked elsewhere.
âPeeble is hurting?â
Maud closed her eyes, breath a little short but still controlled.
âNo, itâs⌠painless. Pebble and my Flicker, theyâre⌠gone but they arenât hurting anymore.â
Why was she telling her that? Condiment would certainly laugh at her for this unusual sharing⌠ButâŚit was still Flicker after all?
âOh,â Flicker seemed to think for a second before beaming at her, âCool! Yours Flicker is lucky!â
Lucky.
HOW DID ANY OF THIS TRANSLATED AS LUCKY!???Â
âHow dare youâŚâ she seethed.
The small pest didnât seem to register the words and continued babbling nonsense about how she must be happy for her sister to be gone for a minute before finally noticing Maudâs tight fists and her (probably terrible) expression. It was apparently enough to produce crocodile tears.
â...what dit I to?â
It was hard to say why exactly those final words were the thing to break the dam but it did. Badly.
âYou say that because you didn't hear the screams.â
Maud drove her accusing finger in the kidâs shirt, eliciting a small confused yelp. She did not yell but her voice had reduced to a frigid tone that was meant to hurt. She no longer cared if it was a child or even âFlickerâ, her emotions swept her and the discharge felt almost guiltily good.
â You didn't lose your sense of reality due to the pain it causedâŚâ
She was done trying, she was done pretending it was fine.
âYou didn't see your parents get so disfigured you couldn't recognize them.â
Flicker flinched and froze but she couldnât stop the spiel now that it was out.
âYou didn't try to pull your arm off in order to make the pain stop only for it to be in vain so don't say something like that, brat.â
A flash of phantom pain made her wince and release a sharp exhale, stopping her discourse.
Maud rubbed her arm before letting her fingers tie themself around her spike collar. Why must that limb always act out in the randomest moment? It wasnât even there anymoreâŚ
The garden felt now very silent after her little (mortifying) blow out. Talk about short fusesâŚÂ
She finally took notice of a thing a moment later.
It was fully silent.
No shuffling noises. No voice. No tears.
Turning back to Flicker, she choked up at the scene.
The girl was unnaturally still, her head at her feet, devoid of any eye-lights and she seemed almost⌠fuzzy on the edges.
What? Did she-
A small ping shattered the silence as a blinking red window appeared in front of her.
[Error 418, wait for timer to end to try something else]
She⌠crashed?
Maud got on her knees, hands up in the air but hesitant.
NoâŚÂ
Flicker crashed because of her.
It might even have been her first crash for all she knew. Her sister almost never crashed, she only witnessed one after they started losing people they cared aboutâŚ
She was so stupid. How could she hurt her other sister, which was not much more than a baby, that badly?
Maud thought she had a better grip on herself. Maybe coming here had been a bad idea after all. They werenât really hers.They were untouched by her grim and the idea of staining her- that family left the most horrid aftertaste in her mouth.
The error message glared at her as she thought about running away. At least for some time. Put some distance on that accident. She doubted theyâd forgive her anyway.
But.
âError 418, wait for timer to end to try something elseâ
That window was talking about her glitch timer, wasnât it? The girl was going to wake up to pain.Â
What if she fell and hurt herself? What if something happened in the meantime?
She was going to be scared, confused and in pain.
Her hand carefully brushed against Flickerâs, the bone felt slightly staticky.Â
Despite that, the childâs bones were soft and unmarred by scars unlike her own but she knew. She knew of the pain that could course through them leaving naught but a trace of it.
She could go warn the others inside and leave after butâŚ
Did they even know what to do in these situations?
And she wouldnât be able to be sure Flicker was okay then. She needed to know.
Sighing, Maud resigned herself to stay here for a while. She slowly and carefully guided her sisterâs body down to rest against her and picked up her head to hold loosely between her arms.
The way her sister found comfort in.
And she waited.
And waited.
And waited.
For her baby sister to wake.
For the window to fizzle away.
For the blasted timer to tick down.
It must have been in its last legs already as she didnât end up waiting as long as she thought she would.
The window morphed suddenly to a countdown, trickling down, trickling down.
Until it reached zero and the head she had been hugging released a blood curdling scream that was cut as abruptly as it started.
The little oneâs teeth were clenched shut as her eyes filled with tears, full shivers ran along her body. Maud could feel the subtle shakes.
Flicker knew how to hide her pain even in this state of confusion⌠Not good.Â
She saw awareness return slowly in her eyes and idly wondered how long before someone came running outside. A scream, however short it was, was a scream.
âWhat? What? nO DONâT TOUCHâ, Flicker weakly pushed her away to Maudâs grand surprise.
âWhy would she want to be touched by her after what she said?â, supplied her mind.
Yeah, but her sister, who always seeked and appreciated contact after a crisis, pushed her away? That was strange.Â
Did she hate her that much now?
The instant she let go however, the kid grabbed onto her vest.
âSorry, you a- you ainât hurty?â
What?
Maudâs hand easily found its way to her back, rubbing (what she hoped was) soothing circles.
âNo, Iâm not. How are you feelinâ, pup?â
âWeird.â
Unsurprising answer that really confirmed her fear of it being her first crash. Ahhh, she felt so guilty.
Noises from inside the house forced her to consider her options faster. Someone was coming and she was unsure she wanted to stay any longer.
âCan you sit?â
Flicker hummed and sat rather wobblingly.Â
But sat nonetheless.
âHey listen, buttercup. When they ask what happened, tell them everything. Tell them you had a crash, not just the glitch, ok? Your dad will know what to do. And rest today.â
Maud didnât wait for an answer as the outside door swung open, she had to go.
And she went.
As fast as she could, listening to worried voices and hurried steps.
It was going to be okay.
She needed away.
