resting with the stars ✨️

ok erm etoiles is awesome

[scarlet-sam-chaos]

do stars dream?

do you think their biggest wish might be to explode in a debacle so grand that some living being, somewhere, with civilisation will take note of it?

and considering the fact that we see the sky as it existed billions of years ago

do you think if we scream out our love for them as they are- that they need not burn to be noticed, that the bravery they have to merely shine is itself a wonder to us- do you think they would hear us?

or will we see the remnants of their existence before our voices cover the distance between?

[edit:]

IM SORRY I JUST REMEMBERED THAT SOUND CAN NOT TRAVEL THROUGH VACUUM

no wonder the stars feel so abandoned to the point of feeling the need to burn for the words of praise and affirmation they shall never recieve

I reckon Cloud gets so lost looking at the stars sometimes. He spent endless nights as a kid up on the water tower, staring up at the sky and just admiring. No thoughts, no words. Just staring at the endless expanse of dots and waves of colour until his mother would finally call him in.

He’d taken it for granted. Went years without seeing any stars while living in Midgar and then years more without seeing anything. He’d missed it something fierce but never realised until that first night out in Kalm.

He’d looked up after his talk with Tifa and suddenly became stuck. It wasn’t the same stars and constellations on this continent, but there were just as many this far out from the city and all its pollution. There were no waves of colour and moving blinks of light but there were vague sort of hints at them.

Something in him ached at the sight of it all regardless. Fuzzed memories that didn’t hurt like usual echoing in the back of his mind, a cheery voice relaying the constellations they could see. Warmth enveloping him from behind and breath ghosting over his ear. He can’t remember who it was though. Can’t even remember seeing the sky then either.

But he feels like it might’ve looked like this and that makes his heart feel achingly full and dreadfully empty all at once. Like he’s missing something to plug the hole that’s draining him out.

He ends up staying on that roof most the night. Staring at the stars and the vague waves of colours. Going so long between blinks that the image of them becomes burned into the backs of his eyelids, so he’s carrying entire galaxies and nebulae right there with him when he finally trudges his way back to bed.

[stillagoodwitch]

THERE ARE STARS IN THE SKY THIS IS THE GREATESR MOMENT OF MY LIFE

[milleeeeeee]

i swear i could just stand outside and look at the stars for hours

[earthtoleyon]

love shines through the thickest mud

i have always depended on the kindness of strangers

as a flower gives its nectar to a bee

or as algae gives its oxygen to a fish

though their efforts were for naught, for i am greedy

greedy and guilty

accepting the pail placed into my calloused hands, i don’t boil the water for my family, no

i fill my well of melancholy as it bubbles over, trickling down the hill and into my home

i am reminded of it every night as it seeps into my mattress and tucks me into bed

as it is on my shoulders, in my cereal, and underneath my fingernails

sometimes, though, a ray peeks out from the horizon, and reminds me what it’s like to live

the warmth settles, and it does my dishes

and it fixes my bed

and it brushes my hair

the well dries up, and it helps me throw a tarp over it

it sneaks it’s way into my everyday life

into my friends, as it watches over us after school

it glimmers on alexs teeth as she smiles

it shimmers in spencer’s hair as he laughs

it’s the rainbow after the storm

it reminds me why i’m still here,

why i’m alive

i hope one day it’ll teach me it’s ways

i hope i can show my friends what it’s shown me, how beautiful they are

and most importantly, i hope the sun has its own sun to guide it as it has guided me, for everybody needs somebody

(tldr: life sucks a lot but sometimes it doesn’t and that’s why i’m still here, yk, for the good)

[ghostlychief]

back to the stars. perhaps I’ll find you there.

[im-literally-just-bees]

I think a few silent hours in a planetarium all by myself could fix me

[itsjustfire4]

No bc he DOES NOT understand how much this means to me. I. AM. A. NERD. Especially when it comes to the stars. I always have been, and the fact that im in the marauders fandom does not help this special interest of mine.

[darkprincessw]

me if i was Saturn <3

[pbpsbff]

a lot of my fics romanticize the stars when someone (peter) is going thru it and i think thats beautiful
