Polaris The Aftermath A MLP RP Always Accepting!

[Fortune's Fool]

"There... is really no need to apologize." Aquila said quietly after a few seconds. "It's not your fault, you didn't know. Besides," A small smile flickered across her face. "I have Dista." At the sound of her name, Distant Star shifted slightly on Aquila's back with a soft snore.

[<Terminal March>]

"Losing somepony you love is never easy...." Skye said. "A few years ago, I lost my brother...."

[Fortune's Fool]

"Momma had a brother too." Dista murmured from Aquila's back. "Uncle Cygnus. Daddy's cutie mark was the constellation cygnus too. Uncle Cygnus always said it meant we were all meant to be a fami-"

"Shh." Aquila hushed her softly. "And it never seems to get easier, does it?" She asked Skye quietly.

[<Terminal March>]

"It never has..." Skye said. "Some nights I just can't sleep, my brother's death always on my mind..."

[Fortune's Fool]

"Yeah..." Aquila breathed. "Those are the nights I generally end up outside." She admitted quietly. "Counting the stars."

[<Terminal March>]

"That... That sounds relaxing.." Skye said, folding her wings as she walked into the room that she would be sharing with Aquila.

[Fortune's Fool]

"It is, usually." Aquila agreed, following Skye into the room. She couldn't help but smile slightly as she did. "It's also almost pathetically poetic." She glanced around the room. "Which... bed do you want?"

[<Terminal March>]

Skye sat on the bed farthest from the door, looking at Aquila. "I'll take this one.." She said, turning to stare out the window.

[Fortune's Fool]

Aquila nodded. "Dista, little one." She said softly. The filly muttered something, barely forming sounds let alone words, but managed to climb from Aquila's back onto the bed, immediately curling up on one side and falling asleep instantly.

The batpony stretched her wings before folding them against her sides once more.

[<Terminal March>]

Skye sighed softly and continued staring out the large window, looking at the stars twinkling outside.
