"We can drive farther from the lights until there is nothing but moon and stars." she offered him softly, her own home was far enough in the suburbs that she could see moon and stars clearly from her balcony, though the garden was cast in shadows from the old trees that marked it. There had been times she had stood upon that balcony and reached to cup the moon in two hands, to hold it and draw it close against her friend, the silvery magic of its light a longtime friend and companion for her.
If asked, Hecate would say it is memory and magic, which drives the sun and moon across the sky. She knew the scientific reasons for it, but science only explained so very much. It did not explain Hati, it did not explain her, thus it could never explain everything. Not the sun and moon and the magic within them, not the need to chase as wolves still did sometimes. She smoothed her fingers along her hair, but the coolness in Hati's eyes made her sit back into the shadows of the cab and fade within the darkness, at least a little bit. "They do, and the answers wouldn't make us happy if we did know all of them." she said softly after a while. "I have ran from you before, to delight in the chase and the fear of being caught. Perhaps the moon remembers too." it was weak, but true at once, just an offer of words, no more, no less.
Hecate slid from the car as she was bid, taking up lantern and parasol once more. She did not light the lantern though, did not wish it to cloud the sight of the sky above them. Instead she moved to rest beside Hati against the bridgerail."To look into the dark water and see the sky above. Do you ever think of jumping.. and falling up into the sky again?"
