"So, how's college going?" Rocket asks, trying to show an interest in Jake's life.
"It's going great! I'm really enjoying my classes and meeting new people," Jake replies with a smile.
"That's good to hear. And what about Luna and your ex-girlfriend?" Rocket asks, knowing that those were two of the most important people in Jake's life.
Jake's expression falters a little at the mention of his ex-girlfriend. "Things didn't work out between us. But Luna is doing great. She's been working on her own projects and seems really happy."
Rocket nods sympathetically. "I'm sorry to hear that. But I'm glad Luna is doing well. You two always made a great team."
Jake smiles softly at the compliment. He misses working alongside Luna, but he knows they both need to focus on their own individual projects for now.
