Description
Throughout the comic, i tried to incorporate little callbacks from throughout the series. But in reality, i was just referencing the scenes/bits that always stood out to me best. For example, to me Jet cooking and his bonsais were core parts of those moments.

Interesting to note is that in the original writing, they had this beautiful paragraph where Jet and Faye try to understand what Spike meant to them.

Here's the excerpt:
They hadn't worked. They hadn't even left the ship. And they hadn't even really acknowledged why. Somehow, losing Spike was more than simply losing a friend or partner or whatever the hell he was. It was like they lost a tiny bit of their reality.

Spike was dead. Spike wasn't someone who died. Spike was barely a person, when you got down to it. Spike was like a toy. You just sort of watched him. You'd wind him up and let him go, and you'd sit back with a goofy grin while he just was Spike. You rolled your eyes and you cussed him out, and you vowed to break whatever bones in his body that weren't broken by the time he came back. And then you fixed him up and let him go again.
And slowly, you found yourself getting this attachment to him.

I couldn't actually translate this into comic form so i had to come up with an alternative. Which is how this and the following scenes came to light.
