NIKI
"Do not take my word for it. Who knows - perhaps starwhales are particularly fond of meteor showers." Niki smiles, clearly trying to assuage the disappointment he can hear in her voice. "I suppose we shall just have to wait and see." It is already dark, luckily enough, with the stars beginning to peep out, so they won't be waiting for very long. Smiling again at her response - clearly the boy doesn't hear his work called cool very often, he nods and leans down to grab up his bag and pull it into his lap.
"Sometimes," he says. "It depends on my mood. I have made brooches and bracelets previously, and I am currently working on some trinket boxes." Riflng through the bag, he draws out some examples - a delicate box with filigree decoration, a bangle fashioned in such a way to make it appear as if it has been crafted from spiderwebs, and so on. Also set on the table - to make room and prevent it from jostling around - is a glass jar with what looks like a dead butterfly within it.
"Ah, Torchline? I have never been, but I suspect it would be far too warm for me anyway. Is The Ark that ship with the red sails and the, uh... the Safrin on the front?" he inquires with a raise of his eyebrows. "It was docked here not long ago."

my body's on the line now; I can't fight this time now
I can feel the light shine on my face
I can feel the light shine on my face
