Digital Circus Tales

Tears of Gangle and Kinger

Kinger, a king chess piece who has been here in the digital circus longer than everyone else, was in his pillow fort, he was lying on the floor of his pillow fort, thinking and rambling on about "insect collections", he'd say he would dream of staring at the insects collected by insect collectors, well, to himself,  you know, He used to talk about insect collections with Queenie, a queen chess piece who was his wife, it's too bad he's alone now that Queenie reached her breaking point. Kinger now talks about insect collections to himself in the safety of his pillow fort.

Just then, he got startled by the noises of a sobbing girl with a mask for a face and ribbons as her body. I guess that makes up her body. Gangle's tragedy mask was exposed when her comedy mask broke, you see, her comedy mask was what she used to hide her sad tragedy mask, but now her comedy mask is broken again, oh dear lord, poor Gangle, whoever did this to her mask must be punished!

Kinger yelped and said "Oh, it's you" and Gangle said "Kinger, can I stay with you in your impenetrable fortress?"  "Why of course" Kinger said. Gangle entered the pillow fort, and she started to cry again, Kinger screamed and turn to see Gangle was behind him "Gangle, you startled me again" Kinger said, Gangle started crying again and Kinger felt sorry for her, "Gangle?" Kinger said "What?" Gangle replied with a sniff "Why are you crying this time?" He asked, Gangle showed him the pieces of her comedy mask to him, "Jax made me trip and break my comedy mask, and he called me and crybaby, and I tried to tell him what he did, but he ignored me" Gangle explained through her sobs,
Kinger awkwardly asked "D-do you uhh, need a hug, i um, uhhh, hope it will make you feel better!" Gangle turned to Kinger and said "Kinger...." And just before she could finish, Kinger yelped, he calmed down a bit and said "Uh, sorry, Gangle, you startled me" Gangle said "It's fine, I just wanted to say that I never had a hug in a long time, no one ever hugged me since I came into the digital circus"  and Kinger said "Well today's the day you get the respect from me you deserve" Kinger happily said.  "I know I don't do comfort as often as Ragatha ever does, but I feel sorry for you" he said. And Gangle said "I appreciate it". Kinger wrapped his limbless hands around Gangle's ribbon torso, and Gangle wrapped her ribbon arms around Kinger's body, the two embraced eachother in comfort. And then Kinger started to have tiny tears fall from his eyes, Kinger let go of Gangle, wiped those tears away and said, "Sorry, Gangle, but our hug remind me of my hugs with Queenie, I miss her. Gangle felt sorry for Kinger and hugged him, "It's okay" Gangle said, and with that, Kinger and Gangle hugged. They felt sympathy and empathy for each other. Aww, how sweet.
