Summary
"Daaaaaaak."
Still, silence remains. Tense, of course, but still—nothing is said. Dakkar won't break it. His back is turned, revealing nothing. Any reaction at all is exactly what he wants, after all, so Dakkar's trying not to give it.
"Dak."
Dakkar just reaches for a screwdriver instead of acknowledging the voice. Dakkar has heard nearly every variation of his name possible, and it is truly starting to dig at him. This has been going on for nearly fifteen minutes.
A irritated sigh resounds through the grotto. "You know, it's impolite to ignore a guest. You've got me stuck here—the least you could do is entertain me! You'd think that royalty would know basic manners." The voice dips low, cruelty lurking just beneath. "But I suppose you've always come up…lacking in so many of those regards, haven't you?"
OR
Dakkar has trapped Kal in his grotto, after a stealth mission Kal failed at resulted in him being caught. This is not nearly as much of a relief as one would think, because Kal is...Kal.

Summary
He presses a hand to AJ’s chest, feeling the rough fabric clinging to cold skin. Is some part of him still in there?
Samuel cannot help but wonder, dragging his palm down to the pocket where a handkerchief sticks out. A deep sea blue, a small “AJG” into the corner in white thread. Clearly something AJ had cared to preserve, despite everything.

Summary
“Where is Samuel? I haven’t seen him around the deck for a while.”
“Resting,” Margaret answers, sighing. “Thank God. I think he could do with a break. People have been…rather unreceptive to him when he talks about that strange man he met, and I think it rattled him badly, even before that–” she hesitates. She’s only just calmed John down, perhaps she should not mention this now.
“-that fog, yes,” He finishes. His voice only slightly wavers. “He’s been working non-stop once again, hasn’t he? Samuel always does throw himself into ways to help where he can.”
She can’t see the Brick Satellite that well in the daylight, but her gaze rises to where it would rest in the sky. How many bricks had Samuel laid for it, working well into the night? “Sometimes, I believe he may be the strongest of all of us,” she says. “No matter what, he stays by the sides of those he cares for, working himself to the bone to see it through. But even he needs to rest eventually.”
OR
A missing scene - what was it like, when AJ went to go find Margaret? Perhaps she was talking with a dear friend.

Summary
Dear Samuel,
I never thought I’d be able to pick up a notebook again—not after you. Nothing feels the same without you. Do you know that? Did you realize, when you made that choice, that you didn’t just end your own life but took part of mine with you?

“What?”

Summary
“Elijah, look.”
There’s a clunk behind him, the sound of Elijah setting something down. He hears the other man moving to come stand beside him. He should turn and face him, but he just can’t tear his eyes away from the horizon. Soon enough, though, Elijah’s where he can see him. The other man adjusts his glasses and squints his eyes, as if that will make what’s before them make any more sense.
It won’t. Amos is sure of that. But whatever is out there is not something that either of them can ignore.
It’s clear, far too clear—impossible to miss.
Out on the horizon, there is light.
OR
Light blinds all, beaming brightly through the air!

Summary
Kal can hear cannon-fire in the distance, echoing and loud, only making his smile grow wider. Dakkar’s hands spark with Radiance, their bones faintly aglow, as he clearly struggles to call on any magic at all. His determination really is impressive, Kal will admit. But it’s to no avail. The sparks are tiny, and sputter out in the very next second.
It’s as simple as can be to walk over to where he's fallen, and lean down.
