I wrote this in response to the prompt for the July Flash Fiction Contest for Silence and Starsong. To be fair to these characters, however, I decided that this one really deserves to be written up in long form. I’m actively outlining/plotting that one now and hope to have it done sooner rather than later. But for now, I hope you enjoy this snippet.
