Sky
Characters: Lily Luna, Don
When: Friday night
Location: their room
Warnings/Rating: Lily and Don. Nothing to see here. Slide on by.
Summary: Lily scenery-gazes
Status: Closed, ongoing

By all reports, she was glad she hadn’t tried to stay behind. Not that she would have, but she was glad all the same. She was also selfishly glad her gran was still around, and that Don and Anna had both made it safely back on board. Despite her earlier misgivings, she rather liked Anna. And sometimes, it was kind of fun to pick on Don when she had backup. Nothing serious, of course -- light teasing, and never for long. She didn’t want to wear out his patience.

As they’d never moved the couch back, it was in an ideal place to continue her viewing of the scenery. She thought people afraid of heights, or planes, might not like this, but as she’d taken to a broom like a duck to water, being in the sky didn’t bother her in the least. Besides, it was better to watch this than the cave -- she could see for miles. For a little while, something humming-bird small had been racing alongside her window before it had veered off.

Then, she’d distantly spotted what she’d first thought was a flock of birds, though when they’d swept closer, she’d realized they were gryphons, more likely than not. It was fascinating.

Stretched out on the couch, one hand moving idly over her belly under her shirt, Lily gazed out the window. She wasn’t sure where Don was, or what he was up to -- now, talking to Anna was added to the list of ‘smoking, drinking, or reading somewhere else’ -- but she wasn’t worried. He’d be back before bedtime, and a contented smile crossed her lips at the thought of that.

That was a fair point and he nodded slightly with an amused half smile. Some of the bugs had been ... interesting, but he couldn't say he was disappointed that they were out of that tunnel. Although, he did like being on the ground. He supposed it was best to just find the silver lining in each reality and cling to that.

Wrapping his arm around her when she settled against him, he let his hand play gently against her shoulder and upper arm, occasionally moving into her hair.

"I am," he agreed, tilting his head to press a kiss to her hair before returning his gaze to the window. "Do dragons come out at night?" Maybe they were nocturnal, he sure didn't know. Even if they were in her world, they might not be here. Still, he wouldn't mind seeing a dragon, as absurd as that thought was to him.

"I dunno. Some species are probably nocturnal." Which she guessed didn't mean they'd necessarily encounter the train, but ... they'd be out there. "Guess we can see. Or make bets on what we think we're going to see first," she teased a little.

This was nice though. More than nice. Just ... relaxing with him. Being with him. Sharing the sights of the reality with him. Snuggling against him, she tilted her chin to press her lips to his jaw before kissing the corner of his mouth lightly. It wasn't with the intent to start something -- they could do that, later -- but because she wanted to, and he was here.

Exhaling softly, Lily let her eyes half-close as she simply held him and was held by him.
