This story is a sequel to The Power of Two

Following the defeat of Chrysalis, a bedridden and badly wounded Locomotion is recovering in El Pinto Hospital. As time passes, Hornette, his changeling fillyfriend, notices how gloomy and homesick he is becoming, and pleads with the hospital staff to find a way of making his stay easier.

I didn't originally intend to write this story at first, but with all the stress of the current pandemic and the effect it's having on morale in general, I just felt the need to express my feelings through my writing. It just so happened that a midquel to The Power of Two provided me with a good place to start, since I had only provided a summary of Locomotion's hospital stay; but I've also been missing a great many friends whom I would otherwise be seeing quite regularly. I'm sure a great many of you feel the same way. If so, may I offer my deepest sympathy, along with my most sincere condolences to anyone who has lost friends or relatives to the pandemic.
