Everything must come to an end eventually, it was just how it was. Stars shine bright before they burn, you know? Like a final attempt to stay alive, they shine bright before collapsing on themselves. You just didn’t think it would happen to those two so soon. In a technical sense, it wasn’t really soon… you just didn’t accept that eventually they would go too. Not before you would go at least..

The final stars in the Gemini constellation slowly burning out and destroying themselves, shining bright before collapsing on themselves or exploding. Pollux.. her stars had burn out before Castor’s stars. She was long gone, leaving Castor alone to just wait until it was his time to go too. It was painful to watch, for all the astrals. After the Gemini twins fully go, Pisces, Virgo, Capricorn, and Cancer will be the last of the astrals. The other zodiacs having long burned out.

Sitting upon on the last remaining stars of his constellation, Castor would sit, watching in burn. Not shine, but burn. You appeared behind him, wanting to spend some time with him before his departure to.. what may lay beyond life. You asked one simple question to him, you asked if it was terrifying. The feeling of death approaching.. did it scare him?

“No, I don’t think so. It’s just the way it is, you know? Everything must come to an end. The drip finally stops…”
