Jet remained silent for a few moments, then sighed.
"I know that I already said it, but I am really glad that you are still around, Sunny. Otherwise, I would have been the only one… and that would have been a bit lonely, I think."
Sunny smiled.
"Likewise. I mean… I am also really glad to still be around. Being around is the best."
She chuckled.
"Who knew that a scrawny kid I babysat during his First Nightmare would become a Sovereign one day? Life truly is full of surprises."
Sunny chewed his cracker and reached for the second one, expertly squeezing the last bit of synthpaste out of the tube by rolling its end into a tight spiral.
"You know, I really hoped that you had forgotten the details of that day. But you just had to go and tattle on me to my subordinates…"
Seated comfortably on the sofa, Jet shrugged.
