Volcan

Burn slow, burning up the back wall
Long roads, where the city meets the sky

It is fitting, that Vanquish would feel grateful for Volcan’s naive, gentle acceptance of his tardiness. If he only knew the dam of the sand-born child, he would be doubly grateful considering the nature of that same dam; but as of yet, having been hidden under the palms of the oasis trees for much too long, no one knows of her lineage. Not yet; not until another of Scorch’s harem happened upon the little Desertling.

“That’s not true,” She retorted softly, but passionately. Her nibbling turned into a tiny, almost laughable nip of loving reprimand. “You’re the only daddy I have, and I love you, grouchy or not.” Kissing the same spot on his shoulder - certainly it could never have healed otherwise - Volcan takes to gently manipulating Vanquish’s individual hairs, making fun patterns by pressing the hair one way or the other, like dominos.

Yes, a year of isolation can sharpen the mind - or snap it.

At the titan’s following question however, Volcan drops any pretense of playfulness and takes on a sheepish, abashed attitude, peeking up at the mountainous stallion through the corner of her slivered eye. “No, I didn’t really like seeing the other foals in there...” Her brow furrows. “And there wasn’t really anyone left in there by the end, but that’s not because I’m a wuss,” She pauses, struggling for the big word that her mind knew how to say, but her young tongue did not; “It’s because I’m obedient.” She grins, triumphant over the tribulations of having been snatched into the fourth dimension.

“I will meet them now though,” She states calmly; and then, with more enthusiasm, “I’ll meet everyone if you want me too!”

Dear, dear girl...

This is not the end, this is just the world
Such a foolish thing, such an honest girl

I mean it this time when I say that this is the cutest fricken thread I have ever written :|
Also, fun to note that Vanquish has now raised two of Scorch's children. I am hopelessly in love with him <3
Double also, I am so sorry for replying so quickly, as I said, CUTE ASS THREAD.
