Chapter Text
Nora and Connie sat alongside each other on the sandy shores of Beach City holding each other's hands.
"Do you think we'll be together like this forever, even when we're older?"
Giving a nod, Connie responded, "I don't see why not."
"That's really nice to hear. It feels selfish for me to say it, but... part of me misses what life was like before I had all these responsibilities."
Rubbing shoulders with her comfortingly, she assured her, "Well, that should be all over now."
"Yeah, you're right. I have a bright future ahead of me now that I've saved everybody."
She looked up to the stars, thinking of the people so far away who had been personally touched by her actions. She felt happy to have been able to help them, but it was hard to really quantify what she had done. She may not truly understand her impact for quite some time.
For now, though, she was content to just let things pass her by as she tried to catch up on human life.
