"... n... y... L... o... Ly... on... Lyon!"

The kit jerks forward and his forehead collides with another. "Ouch!"

Blue-gray eyes look up at his mentor as she rubs her forehead in a similar manner as himself. "W-what is it, Shimi?"

Sashimi, this time, doesn't make a face at the nickname, but stares at him with worry. "You were having a nightmare."

"No I wasn't," he murmurs, not trying to dig into the dream he just woke up from, but doing so anyway.

"You were moving around and moaning, it woke me up," she informs.

He shakes his head, determined not to look for the cause of it. "I don't remember. I'll be fine now, you just go back to sleep."

The Railway Queen eyes him for a moment before giving him a kiss on the forehead. "That should keep the bad dreams away."

Lyon smiles and blushes under his fur. He doesn't get much affection from this queen, so this gesture is... nice. Sure, he loves her, as any kit would love their guardian, but she's different from the other guardians he sees taking care of their kits on the train. They dote on their kits and show them affection all of the time, Sashimi only shows him how to do stuff, watches to make sure he knows what he's doing, then leaves him be and doesn't show affection, just that she cares by asking how his day went and letting him call her that "atrocious" nickname.

I wonder if my brother was like that.


HAT: Yes, a very short chapter. In fact, I'd be mad if it didn't serve a purpose... ponder over this until the next chapter!

Plato: Your mom made poundcake didn't she?

HAT: Yes, but I haven't touched it yet... I got fudge!

Plato: *rolls eyes* Haven't touched that either, have you?

HAT: No, but I want to! But I don't need sugar in my life, I'll end up with cavities!

Plato: While we discuss HAT's sugar intake, you guys review.
