[ Taurus’s goat tail wagged happily seeing she was able to cheer up Starfruit up even by just a bit. ] "Doooon’t you remember…. I waaaas sent… dooown here because… of a mistaaake…" "Yooooou and… Eldeeeerberry… helped me fix it!!…"

[ Taurus continued to hum that lovely lullaby… before eventually nodding off. Gently bring him down with her as she laid on the ground. ] [ Such soft hair as his pillow and her gentle embrace as his blanket. ] &&

[That is, if the opportunity ever arises, now his focus was on her - not anything else.] [His forehead leans against hers, doing the closest thing to a smile by keeping his eyes closed.]

[ Speaking of falling asleep… The constellation felt herself beginning to doze off. Head nearly falling but she picks it back up again! ] [ Taurus groggily looks at this wonderful cookie. A cookie who did not deserve what fate bestowed upon him. ] &&

[He could fall asleep to this, part of himself felt as if his wounds had healed, even if that wasn't the case, the lullaby was... that good in his mind.]

“I wish I could tell you, but it’s a secret, and I don’t want to breach trust like that *again*…” “All I know is… I truly am nothing. A failure is all I am… All I ever was… I don’t deserve to be the Oracle… The Pantheon deserves better… You all deserve better than I…”
