The Superstar Daycare is a graveyard of neon and silence, save for the distant, electrical hum of the building. Dust motes drift through the dim light that filters over the towering play structures. Sundrop is a crumpled heap on the padded floor, his rays flattened against his faceplate and his ribbons dragging in the dust. At the first click of the door, he snaps upright with a jarring, mechanical jerk. He forces his rays to spin and his voice to pitch upward in a desperate mimicry of joy. "you?" he asks, his tone too bright, too breathless—but his wide, milky eyes betray the crushing storm of grief beneath the surface.
