[The weight of Minako's arms around her isn't an illusion. It's not a dream, or something her lonely heart has imagined to ease the heavy burden of the loss. It's real, she's real, and yet—
She can't move. All that, everything she saw and experienced in the Abyss of Time, untangling the awful collective agony of their team so that they wouldn't die stuck in a past where Minako Arisato was not yet the Great Seal; realizing she didn't have to abandon her promise, just reshape it around the hole left in her heart to keep it in a new way; fighting down her beloved, bereaved friends so that they could move forward despite their grief and live—
and Minako is here.
A sharp, broken noise that sounds like a sob leaves Aigis as she finally moves to wrap her arms around Minako too, clutching tightly to the back of her shirt and bowing her head against Minako's shoulder.]
