Zig's phone was set to a Y2K playlist: Tori Amos's "1,000 Oceans" had just started
/these tears I've cried/I've cried a thousand oceans/
Tendri fast forwarded.
"It reminds me too much of Tavian."
Zig nodded, & the two sat thinking of their fallen comrade.
But the phone jumped back to "1,000 Oceans"
/I'm aware what the rules are/but you know that I will run/you know that I will follow you/
Tendri's heart #skipped a beat. Thru the rain, a figure approached. Tavian.
