Welcome to Gaia! ::

Her enthusiasm was infectious, and honestly just increased the enthusiasm he was feeling already. He loved space. He loved introducing other people to space. He loved when they also loved space.

He grinned at her when she took both of his hands in hers, nodding enthusiastically when she thanked him for showing this to her. "No problem!" declared Encke, grinning, before quieting so she could continue to talk. Her curiosity ran the same tracks his did. While he loved his comet, would always love his comet the most, he wondered what else was out there. He had seen a few places, now--Methone's world, Scholomance's wonder--but just the diversity of those places alone hinted that there was diversity in space he couldn't even try to imagine.

Sinistra's, too! Looking at her outfit, he wondered what her planet might be like. Her hat made him think of witches. Perhaps there had been actual witches on her planet at some point? That would have been fascinating in its own right...

The fact that she was able to dismiss her disbelief, finally, made him grin even wider.

"I'm happy I could show this to you!" replied Encke, sounding about as enthused as she did. "Space is such an amazing place. I imagine your planet is just as amazing as my home comet." To her, perhaps it would be even moreso, but of course, one tended to be biased towards their own home planets. He could respect that... considering he was clearly biased to his own.

But that didn't lessen his enthusiasm for other planets terribly much.

With a wink, he said, "When you get up to your planet, you should introduce me to it at some point, yeah? You're definitely free to explore a bit here, if you want, too!"

Encke put his hand up and shook his head when Sinistra thanked him, lowering it afterward with a grin. "No need to thank me! I'm happy to share my comet with anyone who asks."

Well, unless they were Chaos, but considering Sinistra was very much not...

"I'd love to encourage more people to get up to their place in space!"

Encke's grin only widened at the fact that not only did she want to take him up to her world, she also wanted to take him back up first. It was hard not to feel a little giddy about seeing someone else's place in space. The only places he had really seen were his own; he could hardly imagine what other comets, asteroids, moons, planets were like, and his brain gave him all sorts of images of what could be out there, considering his own place.

He definitely wanted to know.

"I'd love to go up there with you, whenever you're ready."

His smile softened, a bit, especially as she mentioned the 'empty and broken,' bit. "And yes, be proud of it. And hey, my comet didn't start out like this." Encke gestured to the sky once more, as a bolt jumped from one spire to another. "You can make your planet come to life again, too."
