    Summary

    “She’d be proud of the person you are now, Shadow,” she speaks again, firmly, sincerely.

    “Maybe. Maybe not,” he responds, the words coming out more bitter than he had intended. At his side, he hears Amy draw in a measured breath.

    It hardly mattered, in the end. She’d never know the person he is now, and that might have been the thing that stung the most. Amy considers his words carefully, a heavy silence settling between them. Shadow turns to face her, and he sees a flurry of emotions flash across her face before settling on a sad, subdued smile.

    I’m proud of the person you are now,” she says finally. Her eyes shine with an admiration so genuine it almost brings a blush to his cheeks.

    Almost.

    You’re the reason I'm the person I am now, he thinks, but does not say.
    --
    On a solemn trip to the ARK, Shadow considers his past. Amy guides him towards his future.
