@danthekickingman Because Dan loves stars. And space things in general. And I happen to have a gal who is a BIG, big fan of those things too.~
Like an endless sea, so too was the sky above.
The horizon line seemed nigh undetectable between the two. An unfathomably large canvas of black and indigo, painted by a myriad of lights - soulful and stellar - rested overhead, its reflection cast upon distant waters below. The geography made its best attempts to reach it. Mountain peaks of neighboring isles rose as high as they could, only to fall drastically short. Despite their grand stature, they too were so, so very small by comparison.
The distance forever carried with it an untameable sense of wonder. As much knowledge as sentient lifeforms who were keen on the subject had so courageously, yet carefully accrued, nonetheless, they still had that much more to learn. The mystery remained forever alive… at least, for now.
Sometimes, it truly felt as though her heart rested out there. Somewhere far, far away... even from her.
“Quite the sight, isn't it?” A stranger approached her in the starlit shadows. She had not seen them, but the grass betrayed the secrecy of their footfalls. Had they been soundless, just the same, their presence could be felt.
Though content with her gaze placed upon the nocturnal, a moment was soon spared for them. Ah, it was an interesting one! Regardless of the dark, the conspicuous visual of their very prominent brows drew her in in an instant. Surely, she had not seen their likes before - there was simply no way she could forget eyebrows like those!
There was an amity that emanated from her. Though playful, her candor could not be denied. Verbally, she welcomed this presumably unknown guest with open arms.
“Would you like to have a closer look?”
