“It’s stunning. All spires, gleaming in the sunlight, encased in a great glass dome.”

There’s silence for awhile, and he’s surprised to find his older self has crawled into his lap and is curled up against his chest. He kisses the top of his head gently.

“Thank you for reminding me,” the older says quietly. “I’d forgotten.”
