Girl, you don’t know the half of it.

Well, that explains the Crosbytop.

I think that's the only semi-important item which ended up in the wallet, unless Dad's credit cards are somehow crucial to the story. I wouldn't rule it out.

This Aradia is so full of life, right after we were told the opposite was the case - and she's alone, so if it's a façade, it's certainly a deep one. Perhaps God Tier Aradia's presence has already mutated this memory, and this isn't how it originally went down.

Yup. Godradia is interfering, and this bubble has ceased to be an accurate recollection of her life.

Maybe, now that her ascended self has shown up, the younger Aradia has begun to 'remember' the joy of her future resurrection.

This is probably the actual Sollux, recently rendered unconscious by Eridan’s Hope laser. He's just started to realize his powers are gone, and I predict he's about to be even more cheerful than Aradia.

AA: 0k d0 y0u remember what we talked ab0ut regarding kanayas ruins?

In Bloom

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Picture of the Week shows bright, colourful pockets of star formation blooming like roses in a spiral galaxy named NGC 972. 

The orange-pink glow is created as hydrogen gas reacts to the intense light streaming outwards from nearby newborn stars; these bright patches can be seen here amid dark, tangled streams of cosmic dust. 

Astronomers look for these telltale signs of star formation when they study galaxies throughout the cosmos, as star formation rates, locations, and histories offer critical clues as to how these colossal collections of gas and dust have evolved over time. New generations of stars contribute to — and are also, in turn, influenced by — the broader forces and factors that mould galaxies throughout the Universe, such as gravity, radiation, matter, and dark matter.

German-British astronomer William Herschel is credited with the discovery of NGC 972 in 1784. Astronomers have since measured its distance, finding it to be just under 70 million light-years.
