"What should we do today?"
"I don't know. It feels like we've done everything."
"Hmmmm."
"Hmmmm."
"What if... we just— explore?"
"Oh! Where would we go?"
"Anywhere and everywhere!"
"Even to planets we haven't seen?"
"Especially those!"
"Yes! This will be so much fun... I can't wait to see it all with you."
"We have to! We should make it our life-goal! You and me; traveling and uncovering every corner of the universe!"
"Haha, yeah! I can see it now! The Collector and (Y/N)! Vagrants— no... wanderers? Uhhh..."
"Best friends!"
"Best friends!! On a journey to experience all that the universe has to offer. We'll become even smarter than the Elders!"
"Ah... but what if one of us gets lost?"
"Huh?"
"Or worse... what if we get in a fight... and aren't friends anymore?"
"..."
"..."
"Then... let's pinky swear."
"Yeah. Yeah! Okay!"
"I pinky swear that we'll be best friends forever! Even if the elders tell us we can't, even if we're mad at each other, even if we're far apart... no matter what happens, we will always find our way back to one another."
The two children laugh with glee and deep-rooted affection.
"Hehe! Now, where should we go first?"
