“Love-!…-sigh-,.. I’m getting old.. I understand that this might, and most certainly “will” be to much for him.. but we have no other choice, I fear if we give lunar my role.. he’ll just burn everything we have built, both physically, and metamorphicly..”

"But still." His mother paused. "A coming-of-age ball, Phillip. That's more lights and sound than even you could handle. What makes you think Star could handle it?"

“…I don’t, I’m not even sure if he’ll be able to “make it” to the ball.. but we have no choice, and we both.. know that..”

"He's delicate, Phillip." If Star had wanted to get up and ask his parents questions, he wouldn't be able to now. He felt frozen to the step. So that's what his parents thought of him? That he was delicate?

"Well, who's fault is that?" Star snapped in his head. "You're the ones who never let me leave. Maybe if I'd gone outside with Lunar, I wouldn't be so delicate."

"I'm just so worried, that's all." His mother said. Slowly Star got up from the step.

"Don't be." He thought. "I don't want this royal ball either, you won't have to worry about a thing."

“.. We both are, love.. -cough cough-,.. im going to pass soon.. so please, watch over our sons.. make sure star is able to the right thing.. and.. take care of yourself once I do… please..”

Star ran-well more like quickly walked-to Lunar's room

"Lu, I need help." 

“.. Eh-? What are you talking about, your star. If you need help finding your shoes or something, there in- -v-“

"Lu, mother and father are planning my future for me."

“.. Oh, well.. that’s kinda reasonable, I mean-, are they going to the extent of what you’ll do or..-?”

"They're planning some sort of coming-of-age ball?"
