stargazing, OTA

[pellameno]

Who: Pell and Axton, but OTA!!!
What: cuddles and an artificial sky
Where: out by the lake
When: right now, during cheerytimes
Warnings: none as of yet

If Pell had to pick a place that the cave that housed Hadriel reminded him of, it would be Saltrock. The cats that have appeared and linger around him only strengthen that impression, and tonight he's feeling homesick. He's led Axton by the hand down to the lake and positioned him like a chair, snuggling back against him and leaning his head up to look at the top of the cave. This isn't his usual method of sharing images from home, but he wants to see if he can do it as much as anything else. And hey, maybe others can enjoy.

"I used to pick out constellations with my sister. Let's see what I remember." He lifts a hand and for a moment it's made of pure light, that then separates into dots that rise high into the cavern and settle into place. It's visible from basically anywhere, but they clearly come from the lake if someone wants to track down what the hell is going on.

One of the cats curls over Pell's feet and he smiles up at Axton. "What can you find?"



(( Pell is running it but if you want to talk to Axton he'll be here! ))

There's a look of wonder on Pell's face, that of someone who knows next to no astronomy. "Where do you go?"

"Oh, uh, everywhere? I used to be in the military, so we went wherever we needed to go." The look of wonder on Pell's face actually embarrasses him a little; maybe he shouldn't be so cavalier and dismissive about this. "Other planets, mostly. People are all over the place where I'm from."

[pellameno]

Other planets??? That's really advanced travel, if you ask him, and Axton's talking about it like it's being from another town. "Do you still think about one another as aliens, or are people from other worlds similar enough that there's no need?"

Since the only alien he knows is Glacius and things didn't go too well for his icy friend.
