stargazing bonfire [★] I’LL BE YOUR SKY

[Tena M.]

Tena Moonspinner —
The Demdji tossed Sanzu a warm smile, an easy explanation forming on her tongue but beaten to the punch by a certain young Jedi. "That's right.  Bonfires are a fun way to bring everyone to together." The embers too, she muses, could be very pretty.  In the dark, they danced like stars made on earth.  Burning fireflies.  Beautiful.

"And stargazing is exactly as Lavi said," she added, twitching her ear. "I had a friend who liked to watch the clouds and make shapes out of them.  Stargazing is similar, just with stars."

Of course, she huffed quietly when she found herself teased by the mountain cat, giving him a flat stare.  "I believe circumstances change, Solo." Her thoughts often lingered on that night, the daring yet failed attempt at a rescue, a dangerous escape into the desert... 'I didn't ask for your help.' 

A moment passed and her expression softened, just enough.  She suppressed a sigh, then returned the nudge.  "It's not a half-bad pastime.  Not that I know any of those constellations though."  Unfortunate too.  She heard that many of them came with stories.  She would like to know them.
