Missing and not mourning was the detail he was looking for. It's a different kind of pain to know they've gone somewhere none of them can follow. Jesper doesn't know if there's an afterlife, let alone a group afterlife. Inej mourned Matthias a second time since he was here and gone.

"You gave him good reason to believe in you, love. You were his friend when he didn't have many." Now that at least Jesper is certain of. Anakin wasn't particularly social here, he wasn't Mr. Popular. And he seemed distant when he spoke of his home. Having a friend like Mat would help anyone feel less alone.

"Were there other people in Thorne who lost him too? It could be good, to miss him together."
