For anyone wanting to see some character designs and the little headcannons I have for the different Steve colors, you can come on down to my tumblr blog where I'll be posting some stuff for the SCU!! (the link is in my profile description) If you don't use tumblr, I'll probably make another small book for those things for you guys who can't see them! :D
Also small explanation for why Time is alive: The fragment of Time that TFC absorbed was just an AU of him, that's why it was a fragment. Time found himself before Twisted Rainbow even took place. I need him for this book okay >:[ Just wanted to explain that for some sense to be made :3

[Time's POV]
As Happy and TR teleported away, I couldn't help but wonder if Happy would be okay. From what Sabre had told me I could see that TR wasn't really the patient type. And Sabre.. I hope he's handling this okay.
I watched as Sabre looked at the spot Happy and TR had left at, he was taking some deep breaths, attempting to calm down it seems. He walked towards me after finally looking away, leaning against me and putting his face in my chest; he was at perfect height for it and it was one of his favorite places to be. I could see that Light wanted to say something, possibly to try and comfort Sabre, but he was holding back.
"We'll go." I said, trying to get Sabre some space. I knew both him and Light still had some past issues that definitely needed to be resolved one day, but that day was not today.
"Yeah uh.. Ya'll should probably go back to the village to... Handle things I guess.." Light replied with, fidgeting with his hands as if he was nervous, which he definitely was. His long furred tail was down and thrashing from side to side.
"Thank you for informing us of the prior situation, please do inform us of anything new. There will have to be a meeting with the Leaders in.. Let's say two days. So it would be very helpful if you could go to the kingdoms before then and tell them about the meeting, just don't give too many details, alright?"
Light just nodded and walked away as I teleported me and Sabre to our home.
When we got there, I just watched Sabre rest his head on my chest, he did it quite often when he was stressed. I gave him a few headpats for comfort, he was always a very physically affectionate person.
Even though Sabre seemed fine, I could tell from the twitching of his wings, his stiff yet subtle movements, and the way he was trying to calm his slowly rising breathing pace that he was on the verge on having a panic attack. Now I'm no therapist, that's Sage's job, but I've gotten pretty close to Sabre over time and learned all his little social cues.
Sabre's wings wrapped around me; yes they're big enough to do that, they're absolutely huge. Most of the time when that happened it was because he was either trying to feel safer or closer to me. His paranoia was acting up...
He'd been oddly quiet, his attempt at holding back tears I presume. Not that I blame him at all, this whole thing is very overstimulating for such a short amount of time.
I pat Sabre's head once again which coaxed a few sobs out of him. I then felt him grab onto my cloak, there are many thing I've learned about Sabre while living with him, and one was that he had a death drip. Pretty much nobody could escape it.
I heard a few more cries work their way out of his throat. Even though just my very presence comforted my winged friend, I didn't want to just stand there and do nothing.
"You okay?" I asked calmly, even though I knew what the answer would be. I always had to start somewhere when he was falling into a possible panic episode, this is how they almost always started.

Fanfiction-------------------- When Sabre first came into his world, he knew nothing. Maybe that's why he was so naive. But even after everything he's been though, you'd think he'd have learned, right? Learned not to trust people right off the bat? . .. ... ...
