And a quick little wrap-up!

Epilogue. Good Morning

Akko wakes early the next morning and sneaks out before Hannah or Barbara can notice her.

Lotte and Sucy catch her on the way into her own room though, and she explains to them what had happened last night. Lotte is in shock and in panic, and even Sucy seems mildly impressed, but Akko quickly explains everything to the end and ensures all is well now.

"Yeah," Sucy chuckles. "I'll bet it's all fine and dandy. You made sure to spend the night with her, right?"

"Sucy! Don't be rude! Akko was worried about Diana!"

Akko's grateful for Lotte's defense, but she still blushes at Sucy's accusation. Akko has to admit she'd never slept better in her entire life.

"A-Anyway, I'm gonna get ready now! I wanna walk her to class to make sure she's really okay!" And Akko darts off into the bathroom.

Her teammates share a smile.

Meanwhile in her own dorm, Diana is trying to gently break the news to her own teammates. She leaves out every unnecessary and troubling detail possible, but they still gasp and whimper and clutch one another. In the end they throw their arms around her in relief and sob.

"Thank goodness you're better!"

"Thank goodness, Diana!"

And Diana smiles and hugs them back.

They get ready for the day, and even though Hannah and Barbara fret excessively over her, Diana ensures them she's well enough to attend classes; she'd slept wonderfully well last night.

Once they're ready, they head down to the dining hall together.

And at the same time, Akko is heading down with Lotte and Sucy when they run into Amanda's team.

"Yo, mornin!"

"Amanda! Guys, c'mere real quick. And keep your voices down!"

Akko tells them too, and all jaws drop, though Jasna's only drops to let in a doughnut. Constanze gives her a silent round of applause while Amanda all but shouts.

"You what-?!"

"Shhh! I said quiet!" Akko begs her. "No one else has to know about it! It'd embarrass Diana!"

"Sheesh... so you went all the way back there with her by yourself in the dead of night? You got some guts, girl."

"I just wanted to say thanks, because if you hadn't trained me so well in flying a broom, I probably wouldn't have made it."

"Aw hey, c'mere you!" Amanda slings an arm across Akko's shoulders and pulls her in, ruffling her hair. Jasna and Constanze join in the group hug. Akko playfully tries to paw them off, giggling all the while.

By now a dozen of their classmates and professors, including Badcock, Finneran, Holbrooke, and Ursula, have noticed the friendly little commotion in the corner of the dining hall. But no one intercepts. They simply look on and smile.

Lotte and Sucy even join in the hug after Akko grabs their sleeves and pulls them in. But when they recognize a familiar trio heading their way, they each gently pull Jasna and Constanze off of Akko. When Amanda looks up she lets her go too.

"Guess it's someone else's turn to have ya," she winks.

Akko shakes herself off and tries to fix her hair a little, but when she looks up she freezes. Hannah and Barbara give shy little waves, as if too prideful to thank Akko for what she'd done in front of so many people.

Then Diana – looking as confident and prideful as ever – steps forward to greet everyone.

"Good morning, ladies."

And Akko beams a smile from ear to ear and throws both arms around her for all of Luna Nova to see.

"Dianaaaa~!"

Diana blushes, but she accepts Akko's hug, and even returns it.

"And a very good morning to you too, Akko."

"It is now!" she hums.

Their little display of affection puts everyone in a good mood.

Amanda's, Diana's, and Akko's teams all sit together for breakfast and chat this morning.

And of course Akko sits next to Diana, holding her hand under the table all the while.
