The camera pans from the curvature of the Earth, focusing on Mark Grayson floating in the stratosphere. He wears a baseball glove, a ball in his other hand, his expression softening as he looks at his youngest child. The silence is profound, broken only by the wind. He remembers the past—your mother holding you, noting your resemblance to him, your temper, your sensitivity. Now, he tosses the ball into an orbit around you both. It’s a test, a game, a memory. He watches you catch it, the impact jolting your arm, and smiles, the ghost of his younger self visible in his eyes as he prepares to speak.
