[So this was it... the end of the road that he was placed upon. It was pretty mundane but he could live with that as he stood inside the small place he rented out. Soon to be not just his home, but the home of his office too. Boxes were stacked throughout as he looked around the humble space. Admittedly he could have gone back to the OSI... the pay would have been more solid and he would have had more connections as well. But he was done with them and with the insane situations they put him in. He was going to just kick back, relax and deal with perfectly normal things now.]

Hey... Thanks for your help. Wouldn't have been able to get my stuff moved over here as fast without it... I'd offer you some coffee but a certain someone's napping on the box.

[He jerks his thumb to the napping Polarion Raptor - now bearing a loose collar with a tag on it - the name 'Brân' inscribed in clear bold font on the silvery metal.]

Its been a crazy few years and a lot of good came out of it... but honestly I'm glad to be just done.

[Meanwhile... an unlikely duo are waiting to meet someone...]



"Come on! Cheer up... its not like she's going to say no right? You said she offered you a place over there and I bet someone like Miss Onodera keeps her promises!"



"... I fail to see how you can be so cheerful. Especially since your own chances are not as strong as my own. We are going into a world that will not be as endangered as it previously was..."



"Maybe not... but the world's never not going to need heroes! Even if we aren't going to be fighting evil... people still always need someone to reach out to them and do the right thing. And besides... You, me and Zankuro... we made a great trio out there! Maybe we can keep that up... maybe just being friends if we're not going to be a superhero team."



"...I'm countless years older than the both of you."



"And Zankuro's way younger than me! Its not like it matters that much. Besides! That just means you can be our cool aloof senpai!"

[Lagardia does her best to stifle a laugh at that. Sadly for her dignity it was a failed effort.]
