They are too deep in the throes of grief to support their clutch, utterly useless to stop whatever is killing their sun, and worst of all, they allowed their mate to slip their grasp and leave them forever. Nothing will get better. Adrian will have to sit in their burrow and listen to the shrieks and cries of their planet slowly dying around them. And they’ll have to do it all without Rocky.
Andrian begins to cry for the nth time.
A violent knocking rung out throughout their burrow. Adrian tapped their feet to see who was at the door. It was a stout and flat eridian. One of the ones who work on Blip-A. They were vibrating with nerves that seemed almost too much for their small body to handle.
