5 times Tipu saw stars and the 1 time he saw more

Tipu stared at the stars above. They were small flecks of light as he sat outside in the cool night sky. He leaned against the grave he had came to visit.

It was barely two months after her death. Tipu pointed at some stars "Leprius Geckian," he said. His feet shifted as he waited for nothing. There was a noise of something breaking underneath feet. Tipu darted up and saw a person standing nearby. Neither moved for a moment. Tipu noticed the brief twitch of the stranger's hand and he twisted away, darting away before anything could be done or said.

-----------------------

Tipu found himself staring at stars again. This time in his room as his window. He had trouble sleeping and needed to clear his head so he threw open his window and stared outside. He wondered what it was like at night to be a star. The earths had a briefly that whenever somebody died they became stars, taking their place back up in the sky and filled with the purest form of magic. Tipu wondered if master Naj was a star right now, he was curious if she was watching him too.

Tipu sighed and closed the window again. He needed sleep not the stressful thoughts about his dead master that he killed.

------------

The time Tipu saw stars was when Jesper took him to his hometown for the second time. He had lead him to a large building with an obsidian roof. Jesper pointed up "Pretty, aren't they?" He asked.

Tipu looked up to see thousands of glowing spheres hanging from the blacken ceiling. It looked like stars, even if it was board daylight outside.

Tipu stared at them in awe and amazement. They looked exactly like stars but they weren't actually stars yet Tipu loved them all the same. He squeezed Jesper's hand as they stared at the clusters of lights high above their heads.

-------------

Tipu had recreated the obsidian star scene in his own room he smiled staring up at the little specks of lights. The stars from the star house were actually made from plants called Poco Stellas, the flowers would glow in the dark and use their own lights to grow and multiply. Tipu had bough a few already grown ones and a few seeds to grow them himself. They looked beautiful on his ceiling and the glowed just right at night. Tipu loved his stars,at night he change the patterns to sleep under new parts of the starry sky im his room.

Jesper would sonetime come by and they'd cuddle as Tipu explained his latest rearrangement and all of the facts he knew about the constellation. Jesper sometimes in a few of his own facts that he had known. Tipu loved stars no matter what.

They reminded him of good things and bad things but he knew that these stars would always be his stars even when his time came to become a star himself.
