YOU'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME

YEAH, YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T GO BACK, IT'S TOO LATE TO SAY IT'S TOO LATE. YOU CAN'T TAKE BACK THAT YOU SAID NOTHING. HOW COULD YOU DO NOTHING?

The lion began to zone off, hearing only Gabriel's foreign-tongue murmuring within the vicinity. He couldn't stop staring at Moonmade's eyes, his lifeless eyes. They were ( empty ) and glazed over, and it was hard to believe that they were once so bright and full of l i f e . It had been quite a while since he had seen a corpse in person, so it was hard to avert his gaze.

Then, a sudden voice broke through the tranquil atmosphere. It was nearly jarring, how abrupt the female spoke. Titan craned his head to see none other than Radeken, the rather blunt newcomer that he had greeted a few days ago. He gave a slight sneer in response to her questions. Her comments, even if they were legitimate, were quite insensitive ( especially in the presence of Moonmade's cold vessel ). "He had no requests." The Lunar Lieutenant shot back, perhaps more sharply than he originally intended. His amber eyes pierced Radeken's, his tail lashing in irritation, and he continued, "None of us knew that this would happen." Did Moon even know that it would happen? That he would die an early, untimely death?

Titan's features softened ever so slightly, and he began to look back towards the lifeless leader. He took a breath and stated, "We'll hold a burial." He blinked slowly and added, "Then, we'll journey to the Starpool to wish him farewell." Sweeping his gaze over the others in the room, he cocked a brow and clarified, "That is tradition, isn't it?" Although Titan had not lived here long, he had been given a rundown on the basic traditions. It would be only proper to follow them, right?
