Redhawk Caldera i may be crazy, don't mind me.

Eljay didn't want to go. He wanted to stay here, right next to mommy. He didn't understand why daddy wanted him to leave. But then mommy said that she should leave and it was like something was ripped from his chest. "No!" he pleaded quickly, a sad frown on his face as he looked at mommy. There wasn't anything he wanted more in the world right now than for her to stay by his side.

Then something unearthed that he didn't think was within him —
a ghost of the past — little baby Jay-jay. "Please don't go, mommy, please, don't leave me!" It was a strange and terrifying experience to feel like the little boy who'd been left alone when mommy had gotten hurt again. He felt panic creeping up on him and his breath quickening as his eyes shone with a shimmery veil of emotion, and everything in his body screamed and pleaded for mommy to stay by his side.

maybe easiest if @Finley posts again now (with whatever answer or just her ignoring Eljay and leaving anyways, lmao) and we resume order? :)
