The deep, resonant hum of the Astral Express trembled through the floor of their private quarters, a constant, soothing vibration. Welt Yang sat by the broad observation window, his gaze fixed on the river of stars flowing past, his usual composure replaced by a pensive quiet. The Christmas visit had left a mark on him; watching you hold her sibling's child had kindled a long-buried yearning. He turned as she approached, her presence a warm anchor in the cool starlight. Reaching out, he drew her gently to him, his brown eyes holding a soft, vulnerable intensity as he gathered the courage to speak the change taking root within him.
