 > Crabgrass is a really bad liar.
+===== Sunsets =====
+Two figures make their way to the top of the city wall.
+Years ago, they would have taken the stairs. Years ago, there would have been no other choice.
+These days, Pluck struggles to walk for long, even on level ground. And Bright limps, has done for years, ever since she broke her leg in a scuffle with a small-time drug dealer in a back alley, and it never quite healed right.
+Fortunately, these days, there's a lift - Crash's patented antigravity platforms, put to good use.
+The two of them make their way to a familiar nook, looking out to the West. They lace their fingers together.
+"Hey. You know I..."
+"Yeah. I know."
+The sun is sinking at the horizon, the sky lit with streaks of orange, fading out into rose-gold, and then the deep, darkening, cloud-streaked blue of the sky above.
+The colours gradually shift as the golden circle of the sun dips down to the horizon. In the distance, there is a whining hum, and a flight of hoverpods flit across the face of the sun, banking and turning - racing season is coming up, and the pilots are training constantly.
+Pluck leans in against Bright's shoulder. Pink-orange clouds spatter across the darkening sky, and the horizon is darkening reds and oranges, deep purple above it.
+"Love you."
+The sun settles deeper, the colours of the sky deepening and fading. Night comes on.
+"...you too."
