 ==Explanation==
-This was the twenty-second comic originally posted to [[LiveJournal]]. The previous one was [[44: Love]], and the next one was [[22: Barrel - Part 3]].
-Beacons, often in the form of lighthouses, were built on coasts to give ships a point of reference where land was, so that they could find where they were going, and to know where they should avoid during a storm. In the comic, [[Megan]] fills this role for [[Cueball]]: she is his beacon to know where he can be safe. This also has a romantic notion, as Megan is lighting up the world for Cueball to find her.
