Author's Note(s):
- Another filler chapter that's no longer following the plot outline I've prepared for this story. Somehow, the story has taken on a life of its own and I have to struggle to keep the prompt intact.
- Not sure if the pairing of Lucian and Cynthia is even canon, but whatever.
- The title of this chapter comes from the lyrics of 'This Is A Beautiful Word' – the ending theme of the movie "Giratina and The Sky Warrior'
