#and Cloth just bumps into Hornet somewhere in the Queen's Gardens / Greenpath

For the drabble requests, how about Hornet and Cloth interacting? (Those are my two HK faves)

Drabble requests open Please send a character and a word/sentence

Wandering through Hallownest in search of the one beast to be her last kept her mind occupied, kept it from dwelling on the painful memories of a past life she couldn't recognise as her own anymore. Cloth doesn’t go around looking for friends, she doesn’t have time to sit down and chit-chat. But there had been something about this creature clad in red that just compelled her to stop and be. They looked so small just sitting against the slab of what once was a column or maybe a bench. And she recognized it then, the look in her eyes; filled with fatigue and grief. And those were two things Cloth was too familiar with. So, she sat down next to the creature, keeping a safe distance. But still, she wanted to give this tiny creature all the encouragement she hadn’t had at the time; she wanted to do something for someone else.  She wanted to say: I get what you’re going through, it’s sad and awful. But it’s okay if you feel lost now, you’ll find a way to keep going. They didn’t need to know that she had found her reason to keep going in her own death. She wanted to say all this and yet, “It’s lovely around here, isn’t it?” is all that escaped her instead.

A little bit over the 100 word count but, here ya go! (: Just good old girlie Cloth trying to do the right thing even if unnecessary. Thanks for sending something! <3
