23rd - Midday Songs

Mono was on a little break from carrying messages around the city, his bag tucked carefully over his arm while he made his way to the market to buy some snacks to share with the other kids working with him that day. He’d had a raise recently, and he really didn’t know what else to do with the money aside from buying treats and things that might be useful. Today felt like a sharing day, and he is only a child… So. Apple turnovers for everyone!

At least that was the plan until he heard a beautiful sound coming from the street corner he was just passing. Mono couldn’t help but be reminded of similar tunes he had heard from music boxes before, which made him nostalgic.

Nostalgia went out the window, though, when he saw his newest friend playing some kind of instrument he hadn’t seen before. “Luna!” He called out from across the road to get her attention, not wanting to startle her, before he made his way across and stopped near her with a little wave. He knew she couldn’t talk, so he wasn’t expecting a traditional answer. He was used to Six not talking anyway, and nonverbal cues weren’t hard to figure out.
