“I changed my mind! This was a horrible idea!”

*“It’s okay C.C, we’ll catch you if you fall” *

“Yeah, we got you, just focus on climbing!”

Bumble sighed as he remembered he and his brothers playing by the dead tree for what felt like eons ago. This place used to hold so many happy memories. However now, like most things, everything about their childhood felt bittersweet and empty. Whenever he was home Bumble couldn’t help to feel like every place around Ponyville felt… hollow.

Tears started to form in his eyes but Bumble swiftly blinked them away and stood up. He took a deep breath and felt his sadness subside atleast a little. He knew he had to leave soon again. Spending time with his friends and family had been great, but the distraction it gave him had begin to fade and he couldn’t stay for much longer or else his feelings of guilt and sadness would return even more. Besides he had taken a long enough break from searching as it was.

Bumble paused before heading back up the steep hill, trying to find something fitting to say. Without any luck he instead bowed his head and started climbing.

Okay, I probably spent to much time on this as I got completely consumed while trying to draw it. Like all the hours just ran on by.
Well it was really fun so eh.

This was mainly done for background practice, then I threw in Bumble and made a little story about how he feels sad and guilty about Angel’s disapearing. That’s the reason he travels so much. He can’t stay at home for too long or he will feel sad about all his old memories and he has made it his mission to try and find Angel still.
