Adjusting the strap of the bag containing their telescope, Halimede strode off the path in the park to find a quiet clearing where they could stargaze in peace. Things had been a little hectic lately with finding a job teaching languages, but they have gotten by with after-school tutoring, so they decided that a calm night of stargazing was in order. Walking amongst the trees at night was very calming to them, their tail silent in agreement as they felt it nudge the bag every now and then.
“Now, now,” Halimede gently chided their tail, reaching behind with one hand to rub against their tail’s forehead. “No need for that now.” Purring, their tail stopped nudging the bag to rub against their head for a moment.
Seeing the trees clear up, Halimede sped up their pace a bit and in short order found themselves in a clearing that was perfect. Walking so that they were in the middle of the clearing, they put down the bag and unzipped it, taking their telescope out and assembling it.
Looking up at the sky, Halimede closed their eyes and let the soft music of the night wash over them. After the week they had, this peaceful quietness just looking at the stars was just what they needed.

Auditions were coming up soon, and Adhara wanted to land the lead. Of course, who didn't want to play the fair princess? She had been practicing at the studio until they closed for the evening, so she brought her little music player out to the park to practice. It was late, so there shouldn't really be anyone out here, right? When she was sure she was alone, the hallowed fallen set up a couple portable camping lanterns to light up the small grass clearing, then set her music up and took her starting position. She stood on point, arms above her head as the music began. Every movement she made was fluid. Sweeping her arms through the air, as she spun and dipped, dancing to the music. She lost herself in her practice, even going so far as to use some of the near by trees as 'dance partners' as she bowed and stretched. The gentle music from the player filled the still air of the night. WC: 167

At first, they didn’t notice it, so focused with looking through the telescope at the far away bodies of light, but they were pulled out of their reverie by their tail tugging on their ponytail.
“What are you doing you silly-“ they started, it cut themselves off as they noticed something.
It wasn’t quiet anymore. Instead, what sounded like music from a ballet was filling the air. Quickly but efficiently, Halimede disassembled their telescope, putting it into the bag and shouldering it, heading off to look for the source of the music. Putting their sensitive ears to the task, they glided through the trees, deep in thought on who would be out here so late at night, besides to stargaze, of course. Seeing lights from what seemed to be lanterns, they picked up their pace. Clearing the tree line, they stood by the trees as their breath caught in their throat.
There, dancing in the clearing, sweeping, spinning and dipping, was a beautiful Fallen with two pairs of two-toned wings. She (they hoped the beautiful Fallen was a female) had brown skin and light blue hair done up in a ballerina’s bun with bangs framing her face, wore a white and yellow dress with a yellow bow on her neckline, knee-high boots the same coloring as her dress, and a delicate golden tiara.
Hearing the music coming to a close and the Fallen pause in her last pose, Halimede felt that they had to make their presence known.
“Excuse me?” They started, hoping that that would be enough to get the beautiful Fallen’s attention.Word Count: 264
