Why This Must Be Read: This a depiction of the conversation in Unending but not. It shows a beautiful way the same conversation could have gone, in different circumstances, with different reasons motivating it. As always Kales is able to bring such amazing depth and introspection into such a small moment. It shows the sides of Daniel and Vala that are sometimes looked over in the hurry to ship them. The serious, slightly broken sides that binds them together whether in friendship or a relationship.
Snippet: They all refer to Earth as the point of reference, the present tense, and they all talk in circles that orbit it but never break atmosphere nor land. Daniel tries not to and is always surprised that Vala does. He likes to think that it means she's here to stay, and they're not her last resort.
