    Summary

    "She didn’t notice that her fist curled so tightly against the glass that her knuckles were starting to whiten.
    “Stelle?” a familiar voice sounded rather suddenly from behind her. She turned around swiftly to see Mr. Yang standing there, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes before putting his glasses back on. It seemed he had woken up, whether that was by her or by something else. “I thought I heard some distant noise. Turns out I was right.”
    “Oh,” Stelle said flatly, not thinking she’d been loud enough for him to hear. Apparently, she had. “Hi, Mr. Yang.”"

    OR

    Stelle couldn't sleep and went for a walk in the Express, unexpectedly coming across Welt in the Parlor Car. They end up talking over hot soup about what happened in Amphoreus at three AM.

    Summary

    A pause filled only with Caelus and March's even breaths, and the sound of the film. Then-

     

    “You would do anything for all of them.” Sunday says. Says, not asks. Like it's factual.

     

    “Yes.” Dan Heng responds, as though there is nothing more to say.

     

    “And for him. I had sometimes presumed my devotion to my cause is incomparable to any other, but now I have my doubts.” Sunday muses quietly, and Dan Heng's heart lurches.

     

    or

     

    The Astral Express quad has a sleepover. The Guard of the Astral Express notices a lot of things. He and Sunday speak about relationships, protection, and paradise.

    Summary

    Credo beats Nero on the bridge.

    The fact that Credo turns on the Order right after that is irrelevant, he’s already delivered his sister and protégé to them, all but gift wrapped.

    Because of that, Nero and Kyrie spend just a little more time inside the ‘Savior’ before they’re rescued.

    And Sanctus’ rambling becomes a lot more relevant.
