Sol squeaked contently as he was getting all the kisses. He sniffed the cheese, wiggling his whiskers before grabbing the small cube in his mouth with his small but sharp teeth. He scurried off when Quackity sent him off.
The little gray rat was back again the next day, early at dawn. This time he was not alone. He was with another rat. This one was a bit larger than Sol. It was of a brown color and looked a bit sleepy. The two rats were pressed against each other. Sol’s paws were on the brown rat’s head as he was looking up at Quackity, squeaking happily.
Quackity smiled at the two rats and Sol’s excitement at seeing him before taking yet another small rolled up note from Sol. The note read,
“Sol is very smart! All of them are, but, between us, I think he might be the smartest. But don’t let anyone know that.
No, not all of them are evil! But they are very protective of those close to them. Fyodor is just a little, uh, too silly :] Sol’s a pacifist though.
In any case, the brown rat’s name is Luna. Yes, their names don’t match the coat color, but Luna like the night time more. Sol likes the sun more. Shrug.
p.s. glad you liked the cookies :]”
After Quackity was done reading the note, he looked back up at the two rats. Luna was napping in the shade of the desk while Sol was trying to reach Quackity and climb up him.
Quackity rubbed his eyes and closed the door, opening the window that stretches floor to ceiling on one wall, to give a good view of his country. He heads back to his desk and can't help but smile at seeing Sol, along with another rat.
He coos softly, scritching Sol on his back and gently petting Luna on the chest. He makes pleased avian chirps and chitters, awwing at them. He can't help it! They're so cute!
He reads over the note, snickering at the bit about Fyodor. He looks over at the brown rat who has began to fall asleep, humming in consideration. Not wanting to wake Luna, Quackity scoops up Sol slowly. He gives Luna a little kiss on the head, before putting Sol on his shoulder while he writes.
"He acts like the smartest! Very sweet and very touchy today :]
At least all of them aren't evil! If Fyodor wouldn't be mean to me or destroy my office, I would like to meet him! If you can't bring him, that's alright too. Luna and Sol are nice enough already.
Luna is so sleepy!! :] I don't want to wake them up! Such a cutie pie!!!!
Thank you for showing me another one of your rats!
Quackity carefully balances Sol on his shoulder, back, wings, head, and wherever else the rat wants to crawl as he looks through the small fridge. He hums in consideration and picks out blackberries, giving one to both Sol and Luna, giving a kiss and scritch to each.
