🐜 ((TINY ADVENTURES))

Luca wasn’t really sure how, why or what had happened, all he knew now was that he was very small, well, smaller than he already was anyway. Only about three inches tall, in the walls of a place that rumbled and quaked with footsteps of… what Luca guessed were giants.

He wandered around this place, trying not to be seen, or crushed for that matter, scooting up against walls and scurrying around like some kind of insect…. until he’d finally found a room he thought was unoccupied and he succumbed to the pressure and began to break down in tears. 

He knew a day like this would come… and now it had.

Luca sniffed and slowly nodded in response, even if he wasn’t really sure they COULD do anything. Even though his stomach was starting to ache with the sadness that he was experiencing, he still took it upon himself to take a small bite of the crumb, not wanting to waste it. 

“I hope we can…” Luca said, looking down at his crumb.

“…i-in.. t-the meantime…. i-if.. you need… help with anything… I-I can try to help you out… i-it’s the least I could do as thanks for your troubles…” Luca said as he cocked his head to look at Patches. He figured it would be good to maybe give back, after all he had just randomly shown up one day with no warning, and yet Patches had chose to shelter him.

“Oh you don’t need to do anything- really it’s a treat that there is at least someone to talk to.” Patches sighed to himself, letting the child go before he adjusted his collar. “I will need to teach you about living in a state like this. I’ll admit- it’s not exactly the safest of lifestyles but it’s something.” Patches put a hand on his jaw, trying to think how to put being hunted down if seen and might end up being someone’s toy thing lightly. But decided to drop that thought for the best and went over to his desk to pick up some papers. 

“and don’t worry about the whole shrinking bit…I could find some things around here to help you get back to normal.”
