    Summary

    "...How do you do it?" Wind spoke up again, voice quiet.

    "Do what?"

    "How do you... deal with it, I guess? Being away from home all the time? You must miss it."

    Sky took the question in for a moment. "I do," he sighed, "I miss it so much it hurts. But it's... the little things, I guess. That help tie me over. Looking at the sky... closing my eyes and imagining I'm there."

    "Does it ever stop hurting, though?" Wind asked softly.

    "The only thing that can stop you from being homesick is being home."

    ——————

    Sky and Wind have a heart to heart about what they miss about their homes. The two realize they have a lot more in common than they thought.

    // A multichapter sickfic featuring Sky being the chain's primary caretaker as they're sick and laid up one by one. Purely self-indulgent h/c, I think the kids call this an 8+1.

    Summary

    Time saw it happen. The long wind up. The flash of sunlight off something small and round and far too bomb-like for comfort. The visible coil of muscles as the Moblin prepared to throw.

    (Sky gets caught by the fantasy equivalent of a frag grenade, and everyone else reacts.)
