[seems curious, but doesn't push further]
To be fair, it is surprising. I imagine it's not possible for many people.

Ah. I meant the moon. I've only mentioned the having been to different worlds to only a few... though. I'm finding it hard to bother with keeping it an unknown when our curse likes to have its say.

I suppose it's up to you, how much you divulge. Clever wording can accomplish a good deal, but I imagine it's a relief not to have to worry about that.

I won't ask.

it won't take too long to determine it's the same sky in the book.
and, really, Miskatonic Smith doesn't even need to look at the book.
he stops short the moment the night sky's visible.]

There's every possibility this could also be an elaborate illusion by whatever entity brought us here, of course.
[but also he's not looking away from the sky.]

[but apart from that, she's not going to affect this moment for him - or for herself, honestly.]

except for smile and bit of tears conflicting with each other--he's going to be pressing a hand to his eyes to try to stem that, though. ruins the act. voice only a little unsteady despite this.]
... it's very strange, isn't it? Seeing a different sky than you're used to.

[she's been reticent and withdrawn since she arrived here, and that's not really changing now, but after a moment:]
I don't recognize these, but... It's been a while since I've seen any stars, too. So I believe I understand, at least in part.
no subject
Ah, I think you might, also.
If you'd like... Orion and his belt is usually one of the easier ones to find.
no subject
What does it mean?
no subject
There's different names for the constellations. The most widely known are the Western ones, a number of them based on Greek Mythology. Orion was a mighty hunter who became so famous, the gods painted him in the sky, is the story. Three bright stars in a row are his belt.
If you follow the downward angle, you'll find the brightest star, Sirius.

Do you have a favorite? Of the patterns, or the myths.

Please don't take it the wrong way, I just remembered a summertime story for the stars.
There's an ancient Chinese story of Zhinü and Niulang--forbidden lovers banished to be separated by the heavenly river. The river being the Milky Way and... I think... the stars were... Vega and Altair?
[if only he could go on the internet and double-check himself, alas.]
A similar story comes up in other cultures--Tanabata festival in Japan, for example. Because the story goes that on the 7th day of the 7th month, the lovers can reuinte.

Seems bittersweet enough for a myth.
