*The ship lays quiet as the night draws on, Bret lays in his bed along with Vixen, another sleepless night for him with all that has been happening for him..He turns his head over to Vix, watching her sleep peacefully for a few moments before stroking her face with hi paw..She doesn't move as he pulls away from her, turning his attention as Licentia starts to softly cry from her nearby crib...Bret slowly gets to his feet, walking over to the crib, sliding his one arm down and carefully picking her up into his arms, gently rocking her back and forth...He takes a slow breath as he starts to sing, hoping to quiet her down with his words*
...As long as I....remember the words...
...My prayers for your happiness...are in the evening sky...
...And mine as well...
...You've shown me your crying...and smiling face...
...With only that...I'm happy...
*Licentia starts to quiet down as Bret finishes, sitting down in the nearby chair and continuing to rock her slowly...Vixen rolls over in bed, looking at him with a smile* Vixen: How come you never sing like that for me?... Bret: Cause you never ask...Go back to sleep hun...I got her... *Vixen nods as she lays back down, closing her eyes, Bret gets out of his chair, carrying licentia with him to the nearby window and gazing out into the nearby stars* Bret: Days in space...557...Each day comes...Each day goes...I live my life to the fullest as possible...My family grows it seems with each passing moment...And new changes adds to it...With Evyn now the rank of Commander, her duties increase...With my brother Daniel now a father of triplets, He's as busy as ever just to keep things in line...I'm hoping to try and send a message to ask for Charles release, since I know he's one of those arrested...I hope things go alright...
