There is a certain magic that, even after so long, Astraeus can’t seem to cease fascination with. He’s created stars for as far as he could remember and yet...
Feeling the way the magic pulls between his finger tips, the whispers of people’s infinite wishes curling in his mind and down his arm, into the star. A fleeting warmth that leaves him feeling just that much colder than before. Selene always glances his way in amusement, as if he were a child needing to be humored.
Astraeus never pays her any mind (at least not anymore) and smiles the tenderest of smiles as the star is brought to life, a flickering glow (but they always make it, yes, you’ll see) that transforms into a brilliant light.
He lets it go then, allowing the starling to take it’s place in the sky and fulfill the wish is was given.
