18	* Chapter 9: ''Lincoln's Blue Period - Part 2''

73	* Chapter 26: ''A smile at the twilight of life (FINAL)''
74	** This chapter, being the GrandFinale, no doubt has the biggers CMOH of all, since the author obviously wants to end the story on a high note rather than a depressing one.

One where they all praise him for the many accomplishments he made in his short life, remind him how much he meant for them, and all give him a reward they won to thank him for it. All while Luna and her band sing a song she composed for him.
