a blur more like, but still the same tall and lanky shecat that had grown on her so many moons ago. she bolted in her direction, paws skidding across the ground, causing leaves to fly behind her. she could feel her heart race, the tired and emptiness had faded immediately, and she had never felt more alive.
soon, she reached her. well, more like tumbled into her, seeing the speed they were both going at. the feeling of having someone touching her, contact that she had been longing for--well, saturn would say she could die happy now.

of all the things to have done, saturn had swallowed up her tears-- struggling to stay strong for jupiter. was she really still holding on after everything she'd seen? it was, in a few words, too much. way too much.
the thought that eventually, eventually she'd see her had brought her here, and much further than she'd expected to have treaded in her whole life. jupiter couldn't help but wish that the syndicate still existed, that she'd never had to feel such pain, drag on with the weariness of the knowledge that she'd always to wait a little longer-- to eat, to sleep, to feel.

sniffling softly. struggling to catch formless words out of the air, she mumbled, "i-i did, too. so much."
