Summary
Its loneliness was unavoidable, it always had been and always would be. Himeko knew this; every passenger aboard the express was fated to depart. After all, the only way to move forward was to take the first step, and whether that was entering or exiting the Express was not up to Himeko, but rather the passengers themselves.
Himeko was the exception to this idea though; she was bound to the train. Her journey was intertwined with that of the silver rails and had been for quite a long time. Himeko chose this for herself too, but that never made the sting any softer, no matter how many times she repeated the same mantra to herself. Call her tender, or gentle, or breakable, but Himeko couldn’t help the way her chest ached with every departed member, someone she had learned to trust and respect and love, now cleaving their own path in the universe. Himeko expressed nothing but pride at this prospect - it was the ultimate goal of the Trailblaze after all, and her duty as a navigator to promote.
—————————————————
TLDR; A Himeko-centric character study that explores motherhood and longing. (And a bit of Starch on the side!)

Summary
Shauna wasn’t scary, not really. Not when you had nothing to be scared of. Sure, she was angry, and blunt, and terribly avoidant, but Shauna was also truthful; a realist who couldn’t afford to set her hopes too high and keep her walls too low.
And Melissa, who spent more time analyzing Shauna than she did herself, was convinced she understood her, that she could actually reach beneath the shell that she protected herself with.
—————————————————
TLDR; The season 3 episode 2 ending written, extended, and exploring the characters a bit more.
