   Summary

   Eliyen cared more about Maruzensky's smile than her performance, and still the Trainer / Trainee duo took down every single race they entered during their career at Tracen Academy. Now, five years since they met, racing has faded to the background.
   Both have stopped taking it as seriously. Yet, while Maru is happy looking for something to do beyond racing, Eliyen wants to return to it.

   When Eliyen reveals she intends to scout again and attend tryouts, Maruzensky reveals she isn't ready to give her trainer up. She wants their lives to keep being intertwined. Something that at first goes over Eliyen's head. Then, she learns to reciprocate that feeling, learns that it goes far deeper than just surface level.

   Faster than intended Eliyen finds a Trainee, only to hesitate. Then she finds another candidate.
   All the while taking care of an Uma without a name. Without an inheritance, robbed of the chance to ever run by no fault of her own.

   While Eli takes on more and more responsibilities, Maru finds herself increasingly worried for her once trainer now lover.
