My wings puff out in annoyance as I cross my arms, staring at the dark-hooded man in front of me. He was staring right back at me with just as much intensity as I. I let out a low grumble as I shift my wings, not giving up my ground.

"Oh for love of- What are you two in disagreement over now??" Cinder's voice interrupts us as I turn to look to my right at her standing at the steps of the platform. However, before I can get a word out, Void beats me to it. "Dest disagrees that my favorite food should be dark licorice, instead of dark chocolate!"

I hiss through my teeth a bit flaring my wings a bit. "Well obviously! Because your personality type matches that of licorice!" Before Void can retort, Cinder quickly interceeds.

"Dest, he's obviously not as tart and disgusting tasting as dark licorice. If anything, he's like a dark chocolate covered berry. Dark and mysterious on the outside, some sarcastic bitterness, but also very sweet and loving on the inside. And before we get into any retorts, Dest, you would be like white chocolate covered nuts. Sweet and caring, but also having some tough exteriors to get through. Otherwise, you both are more complicated than you look."

I can only stare at Cinder who was crossing her arms, her hair sticking up at random angles, and an exhausted look in her eyes. About to open my mouth, Cinder cuts us off again with a raised finger.

"And before either of you ask me who's my favorite, it is all of you."

Before Void can interject, I walk over to Cinder and adjust her hair. "I was actually going to ask if you were alright cause you look exhausted," I say to her, then readjust the crown in her hair. With a tired sigh, she reaches up to grab my hand and hold it. I glance at her, notice she looked rougher than I had first seen, then pull her into a hug and wrap my wings around her. She lets out a tired groan and rests her head on my shoulder, sighing.

"Do you need a break, Cinder," I ask her after a moment, then feel her nod. "Yes. I've probably needed one for a couple centuries now."

A soft chuckle comes from my left and I look to see Void had come over. With a soft movement, I lift a wing and let him join in the hug, then wrap my wing around him as well.

"Well, Cinder, you are free to take one here."

"Mmm. Say that when Mr. Mystery Judgement guy isn't watching us."

I start, turning my head a bit to look behind me. Sure enough...

He was there.
