Stone Circle Sing me a song of sorrow, love

As the tears had begun to fall down and soak into the dirt below his chin, he remained silent. He had said everything he could think of and there was a pleasant sense of release of pressure in his heart. His ears flicked up as Steph appeared, startling him but he didn't move. He looked up at her as she lowered down beside him telling him news he didn't already know, how they suspected Keoni had died.


He couldn't remember Keoni ever having been interested in medical things, but perhaps she had taken it up when Krypton had vanished and he never noticed. "She had to have known it was dangerous but..."he paused for a moment, mind racing. "If there wasn't anyone else around to teach her, she probably thought the risk was worth it"he murmured. On the subject of whether Keoni could hear them or not Sunny shrugged "I like to think that when our bodies go, our spirit goes somewhere else. A happy place where we watch over our loved ones who remain down here. So...i think she hears and knows."He said with as much certainty as he could muster. 


He turned to look at her for real this time and his eyes widened  "You're all grown up! Can't bite my tail anymore can you?"he asked, surprised and pleased all at once. The revelation was enough to distract him from the pain so he could tease her in a friendly nature, eyes brightening slightly.
