Nexus. By the sign. Nyx

Wingnut blinks, then responds automatically to the little sound, her small pincher going out to gently pat the girl on the nose. "It's alright, rookie. Don't worry."

Pluto's trying to get out of shock and deal with this, really he is. Names? Someone had mentioned names, hadn't they. He remembers joking with the other Stardroids about that once. Terra suggesting 'Luna' would be a good name, and the rest of them having fun with it because the idea just didn't work - some of the planets they were named after either had no moons at all or had so many that only astronomy nuts could name them all.

And his had... three? He was almost sure there were three, though at the moment he could only remember two of the names, and one he thought was a male name. And the other... He glances at the girl and then moves closer to Wingnut and looks down at her. ".. Nyx?"

She pauses and tilts her head. "Nix? I like it, it sounds like something Lord Frenzy would choose."

"In human mythology, it's a name for a personification of night. In astronomy, it's one of the moons of the planet Pluto was named after," Mercury says.

The sparkling doesn't seem to take much notice of the discussion of names at the moment. Mmmm... tuna.

"Ohhh," she says, though most of the explanation has gone right over her head. Then she sighs and rises wearily into the air, the buzzing of her wings a little fainter than usual. "I'll be back."

Mercury nods slightly. "Take care."

Nyx, meanwhile, has finished the second tuna sandwich and has decided she wants a nap. And that poor fluffy Pluto looks like a good pillow.

---

Which just sends the feline Stardroid right back into shock, until some small rational part of his brain says it's time to give up on making any sense of reality for the moment. He'd come here to take a nap, they couldn't go anywhere for a while because Terra would be coming back here to find them, and he was just plain tired. So, Pluto curls up and lets Nyx use him as a pillow as he, too, tries to take a nap.

Wingnut watches them curiously for a moment, but then heeds her internal warning alarms and goes to look for Tradeoff.
