Anne clutched Marcy's hands tightly. "...I'm so sorry, Marcy...I never let you speak...you must've felt so alone..."

Marcy sniffled. "...I did..."

The Core roared, being held back by the blue energy surrounding their black and dark void. They were trying to clutch back to Marcy. Their host.

"...you never have to feel that way ever again." Anne said, rubbing Marcy's hand with her thumb. "You are not alone. Whenever you feel something? Tell us. Whenever you're happy about something, go on and on. Whenever you're sad? We're there for you to cry with...I'm there for you to cry on. And I'm here for you to cry on now."

Marcy sniffled and squeezed Anne's hands tighter. "...y-you won't leave...me a-alone...?"

"Never." Anne promised as she rested her forehead on Marcy's, and her heart warmed when Marcy did the same.

"...thank you." Marcy whispered, a small smile forming on her face.

The Core's eye SHATTERED.
