Do You Believe in Magic?

I'm feeling light-headed, Klaxon.

Yeah, I know, me too. We're going die soon.

I'm scared.

Yeah, me too. Want me to hold your hoof?

Sure, that would be nice. Oh, thank you. Thank you for everything.

The same. You've been a great friend, Jartha. I'm sorry it has to end like this.

How much longer? I'm feeling sleepy.

Not much. Maybe... five minutes?

This is it huh? Why aren't I more scared?

We're too tired to be scared. I think.

Also, we've been floating here for nine days with no sign of rescue.

I think we came to terms with our mortality already.

Yeah, maybe you're right. Still, can we end it early? I don't want to suffocate.

You don't think we'll get rescued in the next 150 seconds? Err, 210... no, 300?

My brain's losing it already it seems.

Very funny, Klaxon. Glad you still have your sense of humor on you.

No, I think we're quite lost. So, can you, you know, end it?

I'm starting to hyperventilate.

Yeah, I could just open the air lock. We'd lose consciousness a lot faster. Would you like that?

I think so. I guess this is it, huh. Did I say that already?

Yeah, you did. And it is.

Right. Well, goodbye, Klaxon Melody. It was an honor to serve under you.

Goodbye, Jartha Regolith. I could not have asked for a better comrade. You ready?

Yes, friend, I'm ready.

Klaxon pushed a button, twisted a knob, and pulled a lever, and it was soon over.
