"Then again..." Quinn muses, back in the present. We see further flashbacks, depicting time the two spent together growing up. In one panel, the pair look upon a large glowing star they've made together with pride and wonder. In another, they each bawl their eyes out; unclear who started crying first. In the final panel of the flashback, the pair sit together contentedly, their spaces bleeding into eachother.

We return to the present again. "You always were hopeless, heh. I doubt you'll listen, even to me, but..." Quinn continues.

"Please take care. I don't want this to be the last time we talk." They finish, with a light wave of the hand. Phi only nods, a sorry look on their face as little stars start to cluster about them, clinging to them.
