Thane smooths the old picture out and looks at the two smiling girls in the photo with slight surprise. This must be Valen's twin sister, Valerie. The two girls in the picture are holding each other with large smiles on their faces and even though they're both pretty, he can't take his eyes off Valerie.
The picture is obviously older but Valen and Valerie look... identical. Especially when he thinks back to what Valen looked like dressed up as a girl... Thane's thumb rubs over Valerie's face in the photo with conflicting emotions.
He can't help but wonder what Valerie looks like now. He gently lays the crumbled up picture back on the desk before walking back over to the bed. As he pulls the covers back, he pauses. He releases the blanket and walks back over to the crumbled picture.
