Wow wow wow... fan art.  Never thought it'd happen, but thank you so much for this beautiful piece of work, Annular_Eclipse.

I'm gonna get both of them here.

~timeskip brought to you by Heliux saying Hmph~

Layra: Ooh, it looks so pretty! Who drew it?

It was Annular_Eclipse.

Layra: Thank you so much Eclipse, it's beautiful!

Layra: *fondly sighing* This reminds me of the night when he first danced with me...

Aww~!!

Layra: *blushing* S-Shut up.

Hehe, no.

Layra: Please?

No.

Layra: Then I will not shut up about Redscribble.

...

LAYRA, SHUT UP!

Layra: Hehe, nope! This is soooooooooooooooooooooo much fun~~!!!!

... *sighs* (Cindy, why did you tell her... she's never gonna let me hear the end of it.)

BTW Layra, people seem to like you a lot more than your partner.

Layra: What? What do you mean?

Well, you don't usually rage at the readers in the comment section, get annoyed very easily, act strict, try and kill people-

Layra: I've tried and succeeded in killing people before.

...

Layra: ... but continue.

It's just that everyone seems to think that you're a more likable person... which to be fair, you kind of are.

Layra: That's very sweet of you all, but you need to give Heliux some credit. He tries. It's just that we um... look, I'll just say that he doesn't like when people tease him. Or call him names... speaking of, why do you all call him Helium?

I'm wondering that too.

Actually, speaking of him, where is he?

Layra: He's taking some alone time.  I'd prefer to leave him there but if you want him, I can go get him...

I just want him to see the fan art!

Layra: Alright. *leaves*

Layra: *comes back* If you need to go, that's fine.

Heliux: I'll... I'll be fine.

Heliux: Hello, SK.  Hello, everyone.

Hi.  You seem a little off, are you okay?

Heliux: I'll be fine.  

But-

Heliux: What did you have me come see?

Fan art.  Look up!

Heliux: Ah, a drawing of Layra and I.  Quite the wonderful piece of work, I must say.  Thank you for the fan art.

You're not gonna... you know... yell at the artist for drawing a romantic scene between you both?

Heliux: No.

Heliux: ... I'm not in the mood.

Arceus it's obvious that something happened.  Are you okay?

Heliux: Like I said, I will be.  I'm going to go now, farewell. *leaves*

Layra, what was that about?

Layra: A personal issue.  I don't want to elaborate more to respect his privacy though.

Alright... I understand.

Layra: Um, everyone, just do me a favour and um... I don't know, leave something positive for him in the comments?  Something funny.  He's been very down lately. *mumbling to herself* I thought we were getting better.. 

*hugs her* You both are.

Layra: *hugs back* Thanks, SK.  It's hard.

I know... 

Well, um, that's it for this short chapter.  Thank you again for the fan art, Annular_Eclipse!
