[Io @LadyStargazer_]

“It still must have been nice, having her around.” She looked to him again, offering a sheepish smile. “My father found interest in the bones of mankind, my mother the world above and around us. When she died, she left a lot of that work to me.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

“If you’d really want to.” Io looked back to him. “Both my parents were, or are, researchers. My father still is, I hope.” She sighed, leaning back a little in her seat.

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

She clasped her hands together, nodding her head. “Yes.” She spoke, a certain giddiness overcoming her. “I used to be able to name a lot of them when I was little, my mother would point to the night sky and I was name what I could see…but that was a long time ago.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

Her demeanor seemed to perk up in an instant, a smile finding its way back to her face before she nodded her head.

“Besides the stars having names, sometimes they also help make up shapes in the sky. Sirius is a part of Canis Major.” She went on, turning her gaze back to him.

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

“There’s even other planets and galaxies- but those are far, far away and you’d need a telescope to…see them…” Io paused for a moment, looking down sheepishly. “I feel like I’m talking too much here…”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

Io turned her gaze to the man on the neighboring rooftop, a small smile resting on her features as she lifted her hand towards the sky.

“The stars, they have names you know?” She spoke, her voice remaining softly. “Like the brightest one in the sky, that’s Sirius.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

“Do you know their names?” Another roof, another voice. Dreamy, wistful- she almost seemed to be drifting in a world of her own.

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

“I guess that’s a habit I have then, being in the way. Still, is brooding a usual occurrence of yours?”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

“Is this something you make a habit of or do I have something on my face?”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin There was this thoughtful look in her eyes when he mentioned this, she glanced back at him sheepishly. “I certainly hope you’re right about that, the part with my father. Sometimes I feel like I’m just running in circles trying to find him.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin Indeed it was their food, it was placed before them still warm and content. “I’m sure something will be found.” Io gave a nod of her head before she started to dig in. “At least that’s all I can hope for.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin Io was stunned for a moment before a warm smile spread across her features. “I’d very much appreciate that.” She said to him softly, warmth spreading through her chest. “You really don’t know how much this means to me.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin “truly more than welcomed.” The smile came back to her features. “Though it is something you don’t have to strain yourself with. I’ve worried myself in circles before about it.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin Io was rather surprised to hear that from him. “Howl.” She began, placing a hand over his. “You’ve done enough with one matter, even if it’s just a promise at this point.” She paused for a moment, closing her eyes.

“If you want to help in that effort as well, it is-“

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin “That’s another reason I’m out here, to search for answers or to possibly find him. I haven’t found much of a lead in that regard.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin “Quite some time.” There was a casualty to her voice, yet a certain sadness that followed behind it. “He vanished not too long after my mother’s death. Something seemed to be putting him off for awhile before it happened, what it is I’m not sure of.-

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin Io shook her head, looking back at him. “I haven’t seen him in quite some time.” Her voice was above a whisper. At this point she didn’t mind how he tried to comfort her, gestures like that were ones she welcomed in such times.

“He vanished, I haven’t heard from him since.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin “whatever I did to fill that hollowness felt like a match that would burn for a few seconds before completely extinguishing itself…but I managed.”

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin “My mother died when I was little, my father was away. The servants tried as they might to make such a space not at lonely, but how to describe it…”

She now turned to him, her smile barely hanging on. “Hollow, cold.-

[Io @LadyStargazer_]

@SorcererJenkin “I suppose I can’t judge what I don’t know, though I guess it would have been nice to have a sibling, someone else to know the trials and madness.” Io was quiet as she nodded her head, not quite looking at him for a moment.

“Then again it’s just a thought, a what if.”
