Normally John is there to catch his lover as she tumbles, his own control allowing them to both get the most out of it and still make it be mostly about her.
But there is no him and her this time. It's just them and when she trips, he's holding her hand and jumping. He clings to her tightly as the hazy world explodes around him. The tiny fragments pierce him and he cries out, her name first and foremost falling from his lips.
And when the fragments coalesce, it's a reshaped world which seems more vibrant and colourful than the one he left behind.
