Chapter Text
“Aww It's so cute and small~” The Nyaxlara says
“Yes, it's a good thing it fell asleep” Responds the Serenophe
“Looks…. Frail and weak” the Drakthar point out
“What are we doing with it?” The Aethros lazily asks
“Wait wait did you say it just fell asleep. You didn't use your sleepy time magic Night?!” The Nyaxlara asks
“No, I did not use my ‘Sleepy time magic’ to put this creature asleep” The Serenophe sighs
“We… should go… check on it” The Drakthar suggest
“I don't know, could be dangerous” The Aethros says
As the Drakthar and Aethros begin arguing and the Serenophe trying to mediate. The Nyaxlara slips away unnoticed… and makes his way to the engine room to see this small Earth creature. This Earth is protected by the council of galactics and no intergalactic can land or step foot as it is preserved, though you can watch it and inhabitants from the space viewing deck.
Nyaxlara POV
I can’t wait to see this tiny creature, it looked small and acted small when I was watching it look around and its seems soo up tight~ and its reaction to our chairs was so funny. I want it. Poor little thing fell into a trap now the ones who captured it can keep what they have caught!
Ooo Ive made it, where is it, hmm?
“Found you~ ”
A small creature sleep soundly against the wall looking so peaceful but, with a worn out appearance not so different to the one I normally see when Dust stays up for 3 to 4 days straight. Calling it creature, or it, sucks, soo I shall name it Tiny!
“You seem strong for your kind but oh so delicate… Seem like the ship caught something worth keeping, hmm”
Gently picking up Tiny and bringing him to my room to observe until I remembered I haven't cleaned, so detouring to Horror's room which has the biggest and comfiest nest. I lay down Tiny and just watch, it kinda reminds me of before I became crew on the ship. I definitely want to keep it, and I’m sure Horror will too, cause it looks battered from lack of food and sleep. I can definitely convince noot noot but, Dust, he’ll probably complain before falling head over heels for Tiny!
Serenophes POV
“It could be a trap, or something! I say we get rid of it at a distant” Dust says
“But… It's so small and frail…looks hungry” Horror says, while picking at his chipped skull
Gently using my tendrils to grab his hands away.
“I believe it is already too late as Killer snuck out and most likely has made contact” stating
“Ugh, I can not believe he did that! I swear he has a death wish” Dust says while running to the cam
All three watch as Killer carries out the creature from the engine room and brings him towards the quarters. As Killer stands in front of his room, he suddenly jerks and veers to Horror room, and cams are unavailable since there aren't any cams in the resting rooms of the crew.
“Goodness, it is certainly tiny compared to Killer; it is not often that creatures are that small”, pointing out the size difference
“He's going to want to keep it” Dust says and cringes
“Cute…” Horror responds and heads out
“Wait!” Dust chases
Following at a leisurely pace behind them.
Going towards the quarters, passing many rooms, some empty, others storage and a few activities filled. Turning the corner just before watching Horror open his resting room door. Walking in, the creature is nestled in the middle of the nest, covered in blankets, most likely Killer’s work. The nest itself is three times larger than what the creature would ever need; it triggers an instinctive urge to protect, though easily suppressed. Observing the sleeping thing, it exudes such sadness that rolls off of it like a sweet melody, one that sings for freedom. Gently moving one of my tendrils to eat some of its negativity. I believe that my crew and I are capable of another member, and we will certainly be better than its current Ulune.
