The Little Things Give You Away
Callistoâs face lit up with a wide grin--a rare occurrence for the quiet child.
âWow, I--itâs perfect!â They burst out, skittering forwards to hug Toriel tightly. Their socks slid a bit on the wooden floors, but they didnât fall. In truth, Callisto hadnât even remembered today was their birthday, and they were all the more touched that Toriel had.
âVanillaâs my favorite. Thanks, Tori.â Itâd been awhile since someone had done something so kind for them. It was not that their foster parents had been terrible... They just didnât do kind things without reason. But they were good people. hey were good people.
Callisto wrapped their arms right around Toriel, although, being smaller than her prevented their arms from making it all the way around her middle.
Toriel snapped her paw. It didnât make a proper sound, but it worked for the effect she wanted. The light overhead turned on, and all of her had work over the night was lit up. She picked up the burned-down cake candle beside the food and placed it on top, using the fire magic to light it.
âHappy birthday, my child!â the boss monster exclaimed, searching the childâs face. âI know it is not much, but it was as good as I could get while you were asleep. I hope you like vanilla?â Toriel asked, the fire magic in her palm now extinguished. She gestured towards the cake, smiling.
From the kids that had come before Callisto, Toriel knew some of human customs. Like having children blow out candles on their birthday cakes; to be honest, it was a pretty nifty was to celebrate.

By popular demand (one request), here is last nightâs gif of Ganymede entering and exiting an eclipse, without the pause in the middle.  Photographed by Voyager 1, 26 Febuary 1979.  (Itâs a pity that Voyager didnât keep taking photographs for all of the eclipse entry.)
