Panel 1

[Pilcrow and the Asterism are walking through an alien world with reddish hues and sharp mountains in the distance, in their bird-headed humanoid forms of a crow and three-eyed flamingo. Pilcrow is wearing his lavender suit over a white button-up shirt. The Asterism is wearing her stylish gray gown and a peal necklace. Pilcrow is holding a quiche.]

Panel 2

The Asterism: "Yes, like whether eternal torment's weather is more tolerable than the endless void's chill."

Pilcrow: "Right, we'll stick to cat videos then."

Pilcrow: "Do you think they'll like my quiche?"
