presumablyalone | Second Firefly

[Even though it's late at night, Seto is on top of the third community building roof top, staring at the bright white moon that's high up in the dark sky. It looks as if he's almost in a trance. He's sitting on the edge of the wall, his legs dangling down though he shows no sign that he's afraid of falling at this height.

He reaches over to grab his journal and opens it, taking a moment to glance at the moon one more time before speaking into it]

Isn't the moon beautiful? Even in a different world...it's so big and bright. At home, I would always be alone when I looked at the moon. I-I mean I did have Sai but...it isn't the same with a ghost. I've always wanted to talk about it with someone...

Oh! I hope I didn't wake anyone up... I better close this [And with that, he shuts his journal.

It's not exactly midnight yet, but if you're still walking around this late, you can look up to see Seto looking up at the night sky but feel free to go onto the roof of that building to pay him a visit. He'd love the company]

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

[Looks like Seto's not alone on the rooftop. From behind him, Crow speaks up in that teasing tone of voice Seto should be well acquainted with.]

You sure like talking to yourself.

[As Seto goes to set down the journal, he jumps and almost drops it over the edge but luckily catches it. Jeez, don't scare him like that. He turns to give Crow an angry pouty look]

I-I wasn't talking to myself...

[And Alexei catches him before he closes the book completely.]

It's just the moon. [And thus kills the mood.]

[He chuckles a little at Seto's jumpiness, taking a seat next to the boy at the edge. Scaring Seto might just be his new favorite thing if it's this amusing every time.]

Sure looked like it to me. [Crow leans forward a little, noticing the journal.] Oooh, wait, you were talking to your book, right?

I wasn't... [He watches Crow take a seat next to him, smiling since now he has company. He nods]

Uh-huh, I was talking into the journal. Though I think everyone is asleep so I'm not sure if anyone heard me. [You could say that Seto is quite the night owl]

[Congratulations, Seto. You've gotten the attention of one of the biggest night owls in Luceti.]

You wanted to talk about the moon?

Heh. Sleep is for the weak. [He says as he leans back, resting on his elbows.]

So you... like the moon huh?

You really don't sleep, Crow? You don't have a sleep mode? [He frowns a little, staring at Crow.

His attention then turns back to the bright moon] I do...I love the moon. It's so beautiful...

[A new voice! But that makes Seto chuckle a little]

I know...there's nothing really special about it, but still it's beautiful in it's own way.

[Yay! Night owls forever!]

A-Ah, yes! [He says happily. Well not just talk about the moon, just to talk to someone is his real purpose] Is it always this big here? It's nice...

I'm glad you like it.

...it looks about the same as the moon back in my world. I've never noticed anything unusual about it.

It is! It's nice to see that some things don't change no matter where you go, isn't it?

[The voice and laughter startles him since he wasn't really expecting anyone to answer but it makes him happy that someone was listening. She doesn't sound like Ange or Rydia so it must be someone new!]

Y-Yeah it is nice! I would be kinda sad if there was no moon, I'm so used to seeing it there to light up the night for me...

I guess it does look the same....sometimes, back home, the moon would look almost blue. [He chuckles a little]

[Just so happens he caught that little comment about the moon and is now feeling it necessary for some reason to put in his own ~~negative~~ feelings towards it.]

I hate it.

[Aw, hearing that makes Seto a little sad but it does make him happy that someone is talking to him. That's what he really wants but he is curious as to why this person hates the moon]

Why do you hate it?

The moon, huh? [Where he's traveled, there wasn't always a moon, so...] I've always paid more attention to the stars.

Mhmm! [Seto instantly perks up at the sound of Terra's voice]

The stars... [He pauses for a moment as he looks away from the moon to the stars] They're pretty too...Oh! There was a shooting star just now!!

We would talk about how each star was another world, and how their light is that world's heart shining down. It makes things a little less lonely.

[He pauses again, thinking about what Terra just said] I never really thought about it like that...I guess that does make you feel less lonely! Do you really think the stars are really other worlds?

I've been to a few, so I know it's true. [And his master had been the one to tell them about the other worlds beforehand, so he had no reason to doubt the information.] They may be far away, but there's always someone else looking at those stars, too.

That's amazing!! I wonder if my grandfather ever saw the different worlds with his telescope...What are they like, Terra?

I just do. [Irrational child fear that hasn't gone away. Although there's little fear left, most has turned to disdain.]

Why do you like it? Just because of its appearance?

I see... [He thinks for a moment]

Not just it's appearance. It gives me hope, like it's lighting up the dark and scary night so I can continue on to find the survivors.

Actually blue? [He hums thoughtfully at that, for a second.] We have blue moons at home, but really they're more a sort of red.
