“I am so sorry.” “It is fine. You were not to-” “I am so, so sorry. “It is fine. You-” “I do not know how I can apologise further.” “It is-” “I failed you.” “Relkir, please stop.” “I-” “Relkir!” An uneasy silence crackled down the phone line. It took too long for anyone to start … Read more
“See, that was not too bad, was it?” Litvir glanced around awkwardly, not really paying attention to Gath’s words. There was a lot on Litvir’s mind, mostly the fact that they were supposed to be heading back to their patrols soon but they had been delayed on their flight with Gath and were probably going … Read more
Relkir should have been surprised to see a shadowy being in their office, sitting on their desk, but since their adopted child was a deity, surprise was less of a problem these days. Still, Relkir had just finished advising on a meeting between the General of Medical Affairs, the General of the 500th Legion and … Read more
“Relkir?” Relkir was rushing around their office, clearly looking for something. They were so lost in whatever it was that they were looking for that they hadn’t noticed both the High General and their beloved forever partner standing at the door. “Relkir…” Relkir still wasn’t paying attention. “Relkir!” The change in tone snapped Relkir out … Read more
“Hello, Litvir!” “Hello, Miisa…” Normally, Litvir would be much more enthusiastic about their regular cookie meet-ups with their forever-friend Miisa, but clearly they weren’t doing too well. Miisa noticed this immediately and decided to be blunt and ask what was wrong. “You are not right today.” Litvir inspected Miisa somewhat before answering, then wished they … Read more

“Relkir? Are you alright? We have hardly spoken!” Relkir wanted to pick up their pace, to get back to their office, finish work and leave as soon as possible, but the person that had just called out to them was the High General and also Relkir’s sibling. It was rude to ignore them. So Relkir … Read more
Gath had been rather relaxed, looking things up and watching documentaries about kids, but all of a sudden, they had gotten up, rushed to their office and grabbed their large tablet, the one Gath used for video calls. They rushed back downstairs, threw themselves on the sofa, beckoned Relkir over then immediately made a call. … Read more
Litvir rarely got messages to urgently go to their adopted parents home, but the moment they had finished their patrols, Litvir had raced back home, narrowly avoiding a ship and a planet or two as they did so, and… Litvir briefly forgot that both mama Gath and dada Relkir had a different home now. So, … Read more
“Is… is it official?” Doctor Ekal had been Gath’s doctor for a long time. Gath liked Ekal, mostly because Ekal made Gath feel better.
