Midnight seemingly appeared out of thin air, but really all she had done was turn from a fly into a cat.
"Ÿdra, stop terrifying everyone. Not everybody knows that you are really a big softie." Midnight chuckles. "Anyways, does anybody have any food? I'm starving."
(. . .)
(Not me wondering what Midnight thinks Ÿdra is really trying to do-)
(me thinking Ÿdra and Avhira shouldn’t have had their conversation interrupted lmao)
(i second that)
(midnight is just being midnight. she is motivated by sleep and food. thats all)
Avhira shifted again, into a terrifying creature, one that warped space around itself. "I think you misunderstand me. I'm not letting ANYTHING happen to ANY of my charges. I don't have to exist in any bounds, I choose to, in order to carry a more friendly demeanor." Then they stopped, quickly shifting back when Midnight appeared. "Yes, dear, I have some dried fruit, if you'd like that." They said to Midnight
Cinnamon burst into wherever it is they are, unaware of anything that was going on. "Hey, y'all! I made a salad with craisins!"
(Us, literally floating in the air- ;-;) "Uhm.. Cinna, dear, this… isn't the best time. I'd love to try it later though. Midnight, why don't you go with CInna, and have some of their delicious salad?"
(Oop-)
"Oh…" Cinnamon lowered their arms. "Ok then."
"I'm sorry dear. I'll be by soon, and we'll enjoy your salad, and i'll make cupcakes."
Cinnamon smiled. "Ok! Thank you!" They sat down on the ground and served themself some salad, oblivious to anything else that was happening.
“Before I go,” Midnight said to Avhira, “Do you know what happened to Ethereal? My Chicky Baby?”
"Something happened to a Chicky Baby? oh no-"
“Yeah, I left you in charge of her when I died. The first time.” Midnight trails off, realizing she forgot that she hadn’t told anyone about her second death.
Cinnamon looked up from their salad. "Wait, what? You died?"
“Yeah. Remember Duolingo?”
"Oh, right! I forgot they were yours." They whistled, and a tiny chick popped up from Via's hood. "I taught them how to teleport, but only when called."
"Cool"
Midnight runs and grabs the chick, looking at her. She sighs. “This isn’t Ethereal. This is her twin Daylight. She belongs to Chicken.”
"How did that one get here-?!?" They whistle again, and ALL the Chicky Babies pop into their hood. "ACK-"
Midnight inspects each chick. “None of them are Ethereal.” She sighs again and then goes to steal Cinna’s salad.
"Where…. OH!" They pull Ethereal out of a pocket on their robe, where the Chicky Baby was sleeping. "Here you go."
“Still not her.” Midnight continues eating.
(her chicky baby has to be dead, or else i have to edit the lore and i don’t want to do that rn)
"Want some salad dressing? I have ranch, caesar, greek, italian… a lot."
