The starry sky was beautiful no doubt about that. I was sitting down, high in a tree as my friends were inside, asleep. All I could hear was the sounds of crickets and nothing else. In fact, things were so quiet, I couldn't hear someone climbing up the tree after me.

???: Hello?

Me: *Gasps* *Looks down* Oh, it's just you, Zenitsu. *Helps him up* You scared me.

Zenitsu: Oh no, sorry about that, Nezzy~Chan.

Me: *Giggles* It's okay! You're up late. It's almost eleven.

Zenitsu: Ten? How long were you up here?

Me: Since nine, when you and the others went to sleep. I saw the stars and wanted to go look out at them. Now that you're here, we can look at them together.

And so, we both looked up at the beautiful starry sky as it showed off its starry goodness.

Zenitsu: When I was younger, I'd go out all the time to look up at the sky at night.

Me: *Looks to Zenitsu* You did?

Zenitsu: *Looks to me* Yeah! Of course, it wasn't always starry, but it was always relaxing to hear the crickets as they chirped throughout the night.

Me: *Smiles* What other sounds can you hear in the night, Zenitsu?

Zenitsu: Well, I can hear owls from far away. Their caws use to scare me, but after a while, I got used to them.

Me: Mmm. Hey, Zenitsu?

Zenitsu: Hmm?

Me: Tanjiro told me what you did! Thank you for protecting me from Inosuke!

Zenitsu: (Nervous) Uh, well, no problem, Nezzy!

Me: *Smiles*

*This video is entirely for background music*

Zenitsu: Hey, Nezzy!

Me: Yeah?

Zenitsu: I think you and your brother have the most beautiful singing voices in all of Japan.

Me: *Smiles* Thank you, Zenitsu! I think you're art skills are a force to be reckoned with. I know I said it already, but I do mean it.

Zenitsu: *Smiles*

Me: Are you in the mood for a walk?

Zenitsu: Of course. I'd love to walk with you in the woods, Nezzy~Chan.

Me: Well, then. Let's go!

So with that, Zenitsu and I got out of the tree and started walking away from our house. Since the snow was bright white, we could easily see in even lit under starlight.

Me: Since people go to sleep in the nighttime, they can easily miss out on something as beautiful as this.

Zenitsu: Yeah, you're right. But it's usually at this time of day when monsters come out.

Me: You're right. *Points* Look, Zenitsu! A moonbeam. *Grabs Zenitsu's hand* Let's go stand under it.

With excitement, I took Zenitsu under the moonbeam to look up at its creator, the moon.

Me: Isn't so beautiful, Zenitsu? *Stands on tippy toes and reaches out for the moon*

Zenitsu: It is, you're right. Wait, what are you doing?
