He should have known he'd snap one day.
He should have known that the creeping darkness in his heart would eventually consume him.
But he hadn't and he lost everything as a result.
Here in the dark, cold, star littered space it was easy to find time to find time to contemplate his actions and the direct results of them.
Here in black oblivion it was easy to regret, let go, and forgive.
Not to mention wish for forgiveness in turn.
He knew that, in the aftermath of all that he had caused, he would most likely never go back, but it was good for him to work out the knots in his character that had cause this.
It was good for him to try to change, if only for his own benefit and sanity.
How ironic, that in this cosmic darkness and starlight, he was fighting to save himself from his own darkness

Danny had many pictures in his locker now-a-days. The original one of him and his friends stood out in the middle; the rest were scattered icons of the memoires gathered since then.
Pictures of him and his sister
Pictures of him and Sam
Pictures of him and Tucker
Pictures of him and Valerie
And pictures of them all together before Jazz had left for college
New friends had been added and bad memoires forgotten through those pictures.
The inside of his locker was beginning to look like a photo album; which was directly where they were going once Jazz got home for the summer if his sister had anything to say about it – she had.
Of course, Danny had no complaints.
These pictures that littered his locker were of the happier times in his life, and it helped to remember that he even had happier moments in the middle of the worse ones.
No shadows lurked there.
