Those had me nail biting over the scale of months/years. That first cancer one where they were holding each other with no reference frame was rough. 800 frames of sarcasm and wit and all of a sudden.... BOOM

He explained it like 6 months later, but stayed pretty quiet, then the two years (1141) was kinda optimistic, then 7 (1928) was kinda a breath of relief, 10 years (2386) was refreshing, now I'm quietly waiting to see 15.
