Life's A Dark Circus

Stars will fall

||Fenrir POV||

I made it back just in time for Melinko to wake up, god he's perfect...

"Oh good morning~" he purred softly as I crawled back into bed on top of him

"Good morning love~" I kissed his cheek "are you awake enough for some questions?" I rested my head on the place where his chest met his shoulder

"Haha~ I suppose so, but I'm still a little groggy~" he kissed the top of my head "what's your first question?" He smiled

"Well I was wondering... Why are you so big, like... I went on a walk and everyone here is big, but you seem bigger than everyone else... Not that I'm complaining though~" I said the last part a little teasingly

"You must not have seen Jake Jackal or Carnis yet" he chuckled "but the reasoning behind it is kinda... Complicated, but I'll do my best to explain, you see, monsters like me from the nether void have a bit of a class system, kinda like wolves, we don't really us it though anymore... So, basically, I'm what they would consider a middle high being" he started to explain, this surprised me a bit

"But aren't you like a god here?" I tilted my head

"That's why I said we don't really use it anymore, we can actually climb... So there's lower beings like Klutz and Anne, middle high beings like me, and higher beings like Jake jackal, and... Star flesh...." He looked a little nervous when he mentioned the last one "they are the highest, biggest, and most powerful, we all have magic, but some say that the starflesh created magic, so they have every kind, some say that's why they are so big, so much power" he scratched his horn "we actually have one here too... I'm surprised you didn't see it, it must be out"

"It?" I tilted my head

"Carnis... It uses any but prefers it/they pronouns" he shrugged

"How is it decided? Like what type of being you are?" I was curious

"It depends on who your family is, it's a genetic thing, that's why we don't use it anymore, it's unfair you know" he smiled

"Wait, so, your siblings and stuff will be the same as you? What if you mix? Can you mix?"

"Yes, to all of it, that's how middle high beings came to be, relationships between a lower and higher being" he explained

"So... Why aren't Klutz and Anne middle high beings?" I asked, remembering they were his siblings

"Well.... It's a long story" his ear flicked

I looked at him expectantly

||sorry for a bit of a cliffhanger, the next chapter will be a flashback explaining it because I like when that happens :3 like, Melinko is telling the story but it's a flashback, any who, they're called starflesh because I couldn't think of anything else lol||
