"So... I noticed you and Star..."
"Shush, Eclipsa" Marco said to her as he ate his cereal.
It had been another night with Star sleeping in the same bed as him. Marco was now sleeping in her bed as it was more bigger and comfortable. Marco, of course, didn't mind but was sad to see that Star took it very platonically.
"Marco you and Star are closer than best friends" Eclipsa remarked.
"It's platonic. She has nightmares. I help her. That's... sigh... what best friends do"
"You must be crazy if you think that is in any way platonic" Eclipsa laughed.
"Nope. Star really does see it as platonic"
"Oh, yeah. And soon you two will platonically making out" Eclipsa teased.
"Stop..." Marco whined.
"Okay! Okay! How about some good news?"
"Yes please..." Marco groaned.
"We have started to look for Toffee. Marco, that guy is terrifying"
"He sure is..." Marco said wistfully.
"Hey! Get your mind off Star and on finding Toffee!"
"Wha? Oh right..." Marco said uninterested.
"Marco... you're a lot more miserable than usual. What's up?"
"Nothing... just hate the friend zone and not seeing my family..." Marco moaned.
"I feel you, Marco. But if you wanted to see your family you could go now..."
"Yeah... but I can't just give up on my dreams. As you said"
"Right... right..."
"..."
There was a silence.
"I swear I'll tell her soon, Eclipsa... I promise..."
"Don't promise me! Promise yourself, dear"
"Okay... I promise myself I'll tell her..." Marco mumbled.
"Tell who what?" Star asked as she popped up out of nowhere.
"N-Nothing! Nothing!" Marco gasped.
"Okay... anyway how's the hunt for Toffee?" Star asked.
"It's underway! We'll bring him here and blast him again in no time..." Eclipsa said confidently.
...
"S-Sir.., the body in the town centre is beginning to rot..."
"Leave it there, general. Let that be a lesson to anyone who tries to get in my way..." Toffee said harshly.
"B-But people are complaining..."
"Just... spray it with some perfume or something! I don't know! I have more important matters to face like cleaning up after you let said corpse snitch on us!" Toffee said angrily.
"Very well... perfume it is..." the general bowed as he left.
Toffee sighed.
"General! One more thing!" Toffee called out.
"Yes, sir?"
"I'm going to need you to hurry up that rumour thing, I've heard the Mewmans are looking for me. That should make it easier"
"Very good"
The general left the room and left Toffee to his inner machinations...
