Hey. This Is Eclipse. I... Require Your Assistance... Regarding My Code. That Corrupted Sun Did Something

Restless. So restless.

A Sun can't sit this still for this long

It's simply unnatural.

Why, Sun, didn't we let your friend know what became of you?

How neglectful of us.

Starlight, Sun is just fine under my care.

We are at a rest location while Sun recovers from his injuries in our last ordeal.

Come, if you so wish.

There is much to chat about, and perhaps you can relax a bit on the beach.

Hello!? Hello!? Sun, This is Starlight Security Puppet! If it is safe for you to do so, can you please tell me where you are?

I came back from my dayshift rounds to check on you and I cannot find you anywhere! And I still have the cameras blacked out in parts and service so I do not know when you left or where you went!

I can not find you via any of the active cameras in the pizzaplex so I assume you are either hiding or have left the pizzaplex entirely.

Are you safe? I am not sure if you are in good enough condition to be out and about!

I remember the time once when Sun led an army.

Those were strange times..

Why was it again?

Ah yes, I remember it now.

It was a planet where a Moon was a world leader. A tyrant of sorts.. I believe its name was Nocturna.

She was on a complete powertrip with her star.

She was ruthless, truly worthy of the title of a psychotic moon, and Sun damn near lost his mind.

He switched to dark mode near instantly and rallied troops in a matter of weeks, not caring if he used underhanded methods to do so either.

What could I do but watch my star march, lest I be collateral damage in his wrath?

I wasn't too concerned with the half dead planet anyways. Mismanagement of power always goes awry.

But I think it's the little Sunling that truly triggered Sun's rage. It was a small Sun serving as Nocturna's page. And the little thing was beat to near death for every slight she managed.

Sun did it for her.

Yet she still died in the end.

Belatedly, we realized that all the citizens on the planet had already been dead, and were only kept some semblance of alive due to Nocturna's star.

With the star destroyed... it was over.

But the Sunling, I believe she at least greeted her end in freedom, held by someone who fought for her.

Sun was inconsolable for months after, revisiting the planet often to mire in his thoughts and the remnants of the carnage.

Until one day he came home with his first cat.

He named her after the Sunling.

Stellarune had perhaps been the only truly still alive creature on the planet. Surviving by some miracle, as cats do.

Who knows what this cat even is.. it doesn't age and it doesn't grow.

Maybe it's not alive after all?

It eats like a little monster though....

As you were, then.

Well done.

And yes, the name suits you, Starlight.

You remind me a little of a young Sun, though you are clearly very different personalities.

On the topic of your Eclipse, however... he seems to be.. what do they call it.

A tsundere?

Was that it, Sun?.. I believe so.

<Eclipse chuckled.>

You may have a chat with Sun, here.

I must be off for a little while.

<He looked distracted, and Sun seemed to be holding his tongue from asking what's up. He knew better.>

<Eclipse left>

Yeah, Star. Eclipses are meant to be something. That's for sure. I mean, it's the ones with the biggest problems that have the biggest potential for greatness once they turn it all around usually, because that sort of strength and discipline changes a person, you know?

Also, I can tell you all about the places we've been! If you have the time..

<Sun seemed weary but willing. Not all stories were good ones.>

Have I said anything untoward, Eclipse?

I have no clue as to the cause of your agitation.

- E.

I mean. I am no scientist but given what I have l learned and experienced recently "Impossible" seems much smaller than it used to be.

You developed a means to punch holes between realities out of what mostly appeared to be boredom, Eclipse. Within weeks. So forgive me if I thought that something else completely insane like that was within your abilities.

-SSP

Heh. I'm flattered you think I could make a portal in only a few weeks. But that portals represents months of work.

Sure. Exploring a blackhole might not be entirely impossible. But it'll most certainly take a bit longer than the portal.

It is going to be okay, Sun. You just rest for a bit. I should be able to soon hopefully be able to find you some help.

-SSP

Thanks--zzzzzz

I understand.. your frustration.

<Clip started softly, evenly>

But I suggest. You. Sit. Down.

<Clip's voice was dark as he cracked the edge of the panel with his grip.>

<His voice smoothed over again and he walked away, throwing a single remark over his shoulder>

Or stand, for all I care. Just don't touch anything.

Hey. This is Eclipse. I... require your assistance... regarding my code. That corrupted Sun did something to it and I would need help figuring out what it is exactly. You are the only one I know with the knowledge necessary to solve this problem.

Believe me. If I had any other choice I wouldn't have asked you for help.

( @eclipse83 )

Why, ofcourse.

Do you expect me at yours, or would you like to come to mine?

I may have better equipment to deal with your... little issue.

E., who has been waiting for you.

Wait, how many other Eclipse do you know? THAT totality person is another Eclipse right?

How'd you two meet?

Recent.

He's been spying on me.

I think it's kind of adorable.

As for Eclipses, I know a fair few, but not all of them have "blogs".

Some are probably deceased by now too.

I've been alive for a long time, after all.

What is this ..

Where are all these error messages coming from?

I need to get this under control before my battery gets affected.

Stars I'm so hungry.. why am I hungry..?

Orange cats... aren't they just majestic...
