Aurora goes home before Brilliance does. She wants an aura; she's admired all the others enough to feel out of place by not having one. (Even Sarion does now.)

Bella carries on nudging up in piecemeal increments of ten when prompted and snuggling her boyfriend.

Brilliance carries on requesting those piecemeal increments. For a while.
Until, eventually, he takes a mana-coloured star out of his coin sorter and starts playing with it.
"Is that how much stars are?" he muses. "It doesn't seem like a lot."

"Yeah, stars are everything from ten thousand to just shy of a hundred thousand," says Bella. "It doesn't seem like a lot? Wow."

"It's nice," he says dreamily, putting the coin away and wrapping his arms around her again. "I like it. But it's, you know, middle of the road."

That is happily true. Stars are pointy. Bella probably wouldn't approve.
She'll approve of the fact that he's racking them up at a handful per second for about an hour, though. Won't she.

Snuggle snuggle snuggle.
"Mmm, yeah, there we go," he says when she reaches the appropriate level. Hex to declaw one of the stars, star to declaw one of the new evils, evil to declaw all of his currently undeclawed coins of smaller-than-evil denomination.

"I can hang out here a little," he says, wriggling happily. "Here's nice. I love you."

Love love love.
