Sometimes, when I feel particularly rebellious, I pretend that there is a version of the story where Carnelian and Bigtail survived the History Cave explosion and the two of them (and Umber, who visited them in the infirmary every day out of guilt) became unlikely friends while recovering from their injuries. They constantly get on each other's nerves because their personalities are diametric opposites.
Also yes, I missed a day. I was just too exhausted yesterday. I had to greatly reduce the scope of this one too.
