The trio had paused in their fighting when they realized what happened and An Tintreach made the pause an extended one.

"We did it, Mentor!" Amicitia cheered, jumping up and down and indented the ground each time he landed. God help the first person he hugged.

"We're going to be unstoppable!" Kitty rumbled in delight as she rolled over and stood up, scooping An Tintreach up and bumping their heads together as gently as a giant could. Crowe roared her approval as well, tail lashing as she stomped her feet and shook the ground, sending Noct stumbling into Ash.

"I am so screwed," Noct moaned as he righted himself, keeping a hand on his friend's shoulder.
