he felt the head against his shoulder, he knew that he should rest. but rest was hard in the current state of japan, where alarms went off at almost every hour and criminals actively roamed the streets. it left him using more ammo than necessary, it was a good thing they both packed for the long trek in mind. giulio sighed a little, the fire in front of them the only warmth other than the body leaning up beside him. “nira,” he started, not knowing if they were awake or not but he still spoke, “you can see a constellation if you look up. isn't that cygnus?” his tone was soft, more personal, than the one he normally used. like something about this night was different, or maybe he was just too tired to care anymore.

⠀⠀⠀ʚɞ⠀⠀⠀@typenuII ... ⠀⠀⠀⠀❝ ... mm .ᐣ ❞⠀⠀⠀⠀a tired and soft hum in reply, leaning into the other a little further, though perhaps it was a bit more subconsciously than they 'd thought. the position comforting, a way to help them realise he was still there with them, that he hadn 't been taken either. it took a few more seconds, but when his voice was heard again, their eye opened. gaze landed on the fire in front of them, before it followed up to the night sky.⠀⠀⠀the sight was something they 'd probably never get tired of, mainly for the fact it was one of the few constants in japan at the moment. the streets had gone into such disarray, it was frightening for a lot of people, rarely a safe moment of respite through it all. they were tired, both their eyes and their muscles and bones aching with that sort of exhaustion that not even a good nights sleep will take away in one night.⠀⠀but, they tended not to think on such things, instead focusing on things like the constellation the other had pointed out, it was ... better this way. to think of the constants, to think of the good in the world ,⠀⠀( even if not a lot of that existed anymore, at the moment, )⠀⠀rather than to let themselves drown in whatever was still attempting to pull them under.⠀⠀⠀no, they couldn 't do that, for his sake ... they knew he couldn 't afford that, so, they 'd let their light stay bright enough for them both.⠀⠀⠀⠀❝ it is ... it has one of the brightest stars as the tail, that 's how you can spot it, see .ᐣ over there . ❞⠀⠀⠀⠀their free hand raised , blinking away the tiredness in their eyes as they pointed over to one of the stars, smile on their features.⠀⠀⠀⠀❝ that one, right there .. its called deneb. ❞
