"Do you ever think that—maybe it's gravity that gives you that frown? And it's so hard to smile because of the force that is exerted? An influence on the paths taken by everything traveling through space. As if it's glue, holding together entire galaxies, emotions, and even the ends of your mouth—dragging them down to the pit of darkness and distress. What if we live in a parallel state of mind?

They're lightweight. So free. It's bound to make you happy."
