The Moonlight Carries no Joy

Solaris was between a rock and a hard place at the moment. He was having a hard time falling asleep, but being out of the dens at night stung so much. He laid every which way and all he could do was stare at the walls of the cave and be irritated at himself for not being able to sleep. With a frustrated sigh he would finally pull himself to his paws and trudge out of the den. He could have gone up to the cliff to see if Astrea was there, but being that close to the moon just felt like it would hurt more. Instead he made his way out into the outer edges of Donostrea's territory. He hoped maybe if he just got up and walked around enough he might wear himself out enough that he could fall asleep. He padded along, seeing fairly easily by the moonlight that peeked through the clouds. This is why he hated the night now. The moonlight pooling around him just made his heart ache. He sighed and his shoulders sagged as he walked, his charcoal tipped ears flattening against his skull. He'd lift his sad gaze from the ground as a familiar scent caught his attention, his ears lifting a bit while he lazily looked around him. He hadn't seen Viridian since he had helped her to the stream and he had begun to think that maybe she had left. He looked around, trying to see if his orange gaze could seek her out. |
