Revvit was still awake.On the platform he watched Hud-nut peacefully asleep.The yellow tool sighed to himself and curled up to try and sleep the rest of the night.Still he was restless and turned over to face Ty.
The red t-trux slowly opened his eyes,somehow sensing his mates restlessness.
"Rev," Ty whispered softly,"what's wrong?"
The yellow tool stood up and leaped to Ty's nose.
"I am just thinking," he replied in a whisper.Ty looked Revvit up and down,"Are you alright?"
The yellow reptool curled on Ty's nose,"Yes.I guess I am."
Revvit looked over to his son on the platform."I have been thinking about his brother recently."
Ty sighed and slowly rolled to the entrance to the cave.Here he talk a little louder,"I'm sorry,Rev."
The yellow tool sat up again,"Do not apologize,Ty.There was nothing we could have done.My egg was to small and he could not grow any more.That is the facts."
Ty went back to that day.
Remembering how happy they both were when Hud-nut hatched.How exciting it all was and how they waited patiently for the other egg to hatch as well.
Hours turned to days as they waited.Hud-nut was beginning to explore more and more and Revvit at the time was getting more and more worried.
After and extra week,the parents decided to crack the egg.
They found a half developed baby.He resembled Ty a lot in the  face but more slender and had no bits.A combination of the parents truly.However this child was never going to make it.He needed more space and Revvit's egg simply could not offer it.

Ty looked at Revvit who seemed down about the whole thing still.It's been nearly a year since all that happened.The yellow tool sniffled and whined in grief of their lost child.
Ty lowly bellowed ,saddened by it all as well.

The t-trux decided to take a stroll around the flatirons.The cool night air was welcomed by the mechanical beings.Gazing at the stars at the entrance to the garage,Revvit nudged his face against Ty's nose as he laid there.
Ty smiled and purred his engine.
Revvit chuckled softly and tapped his tongue to Ty's nose.
The red t-trux rolled back into the garage,keeping an eye on the reptool atop his nose.
The tool equally kept his eyes on Ty's. He t-trux made his way into the garage. The reptool offering loving smiles as he nuzzled against Tye's muzzle.
With their son soundly asleep in the cave the two shared a moment in the garage.
A moment only those that were mates could share. One of passion and love, a moment they discovered was possible despite what others thought.
