SHAPES IN THE SILENCE ✩ dipperpaw

( )  Starlightpaw, to no one's surprise, is quite the fan of stargazing. He can often be found out in camp, staring up at the sky with an inscrutable gaze, captivated by the twinkling lights.

She is not one for quiet, however, and the sight of another cat with eyes cast skyward draws her paws near. A glance is given briefly to a swirling pelt of blue and white. An older apprentice, DIpperpaw. "You're out late," Starlightpaw begins, tone direct and tactless, yet without accusation. Their eyes return quickly to the stars, settling alongside the other.

The night sky stretches out in shades of deep blue and purple, dappled with light. "The stars are quite beautiful, aren't they? And the sky is so clear tonight, it's like they go on forever..." She rambles quietly, not tearing her gaze away. Tilts her head in silent thought. "All those cats up there... Do you ever think of them? A sky full of spirits watching us." Cicadastar is up there, and so many others. He wonders about it sometimes, of what it must be like, making the journey up there. He looks back to Dipperpaw, as though remembering her presence. What does she think of, when she looks to the sky above? He quiets as he waits for a response.
