A strange joy surged through Castor’s heart. When the goat wasn’t yelling, they had a gruff voice, one that both pushed and played. “That’s my name.”
Those wide eyes returned. Now, with revived awe, the goat opened the Game Boy and skimmed their fingers over its buttons. In the distance, Flinky wilted down, watching the children play through a squint. Years later, he would scoff at his misguided foolishness. Years later, Castor would poke fun at him for his initial judgements, shouting at their best friend to join them in their teasing. Years later, that goat would be greeting him in the morning, tossing Flinky a scarf that suited his style to replace the one they were about to 'borrow' for the next couple of days.
But here, at the front entrance of the Knucklebones Gaming Parlor and Arcade, the goat turned to Castor and spoke with that same shy tone. “I’m Pollux.”
Years later, against all their weary judgements, Castor and Pollux would spend the rest of their lives together, bounded by blood and forged by love.
Years later, they would be what their city called a family.
