“ i think someone switched the contents ”

“It would seem so…” He can’t keep the look of distaste off his face, staring into the container like its contents are going to jump out and attack him. “Did that little creature break into my bunkhouse just to steal my cocoa? Honestly. I would have given it to him had he asked…”

The priest sighs, gingerly fits the lid back onto the container, offers it to the other. “Would you like it? Free of charge. Coffee isn’t my cup of tea, so to speak.” And then he frowns, levels a very serious look at the youth. “And if you see the Informant--about here tall, blonde hair, smug little grin--let him know that I do not approve of this kind of deception. I am not mad, I am just disappointed.”

“You can’t see the stars from here…”

It was akward to talk to Kaito of all people again. Not that it bothered him or anything of the sort, it was just… They did get along better than he ever thought it would be possible, in his last moments at least. Still, if he would have known they would meet again, Kokichi most likely wouldn’t have confessed his true feelings about the Killing Game they were captured before to him, since they were supposed to be the ‘last words’ from him. Speaking of the game, something in Kokichi really wanted to ask him about how their plan worked out. But when Kaito was here as well, he most likely had the same fate as him and Miu in the game. Did that mean he failed…? But, why did he even care? It’s not like he could change the outcome of anything anyways anymore. Even though the liar tried to convince himself to move on, he still couldn’t help but keep thinking about it. Damn it, he will ask the trainee astronaut sooner or later about if he messed up his birlliant plan or not! For now, why not keep it casual. Pretending like nothing bothered him was one of his specialties anyways. 

The faker didn’t react strongly to Kaito sitting down next to him, until he started to make a comment about the night sky. It was a rather irrelevant topic to start with, that was perfect. Finally he could losen up a bit and his well known teasing smirk appeared back on his face.  “Awww, are you gonna cry now ‘cuz you can’t see any stars, Momota-chan? Too bad our little spaceman is more far away from achieving his space dream than ever before, huh? Hey, by the way… does your goatee keep you warm in this cold?”

Star Calendar – August 2016

Star Calendar August 2016

Star Calendar Planets:

Moon passes just out of reach of Earth’s sizable shadow on the 18th as it sets at dawn. It is very close to being, or not being, a technical penumbral encounter – but nothing observable will occur. Some eclipse tables will list this event, others will not. Both are correct! An annular solar eclipse will cross Africa and Madagascar on September 1st…

Explanation: On September 1, Aurigid meteors filled the sky, in keeping with an innovative prediction of an outburst from this historically tentative meteor shower. The prediction was made by Peter Jenniskens of the SETI Institute, in work with Esko Lyytinen of Finland and Jeremie Vaubaillon of Caltech. Astronomers flying at 47,000 feet on a dedicated mission to observe the outburst collected image data for this composite photo of the Aurigids' bright and colorful streaks. The source of the shower is understood to be Comet Kiess, a comet that would have swung through the inner solar system around 2,000 years ago, and again in 1911. Pushed outward by solar radiation pressure, dust from the tail of the comet has been drifting toward the Earth's orbit, creating the 2007 outburst as well as outbursts of the Aurigids recorded in 1935, 1986, and 1994. Of course, the shower's radiant point is in the eponymous constellation Auriga, the Charioteer.
