Cheer up and dry your damp eyes and tell me when it rains
And I'll blend up that rainbow above you and shoot it through your veins

Maybe Soh was comfortable because this wasn't her first time stargazing here. In fact, she'd done it fairly recently after running into Maea on the stairs. That meeting had been strange, but not unwelcome - at least, until the Ancient had started waxing philosophical about what real happiness was. Even after a lengthy conversation about it, Soh wasn't really sure where she stood - or how to get where she wanted to go.
Hyperaware of all the places where their bodies touched, Soh swallowed hard, doing her best to ignore the fluttering in her stomach but also knowing there was nothing she could do to hide the heat she could feel creeping into her cheeks. She looked up, gazing at the stars above instead of meeting Koa's copper gaze. They really were beautiful, so bright that she could almost reach out to touch them.
Koa expertly opening the bottle of wine shouldn't have been the turn on that it was, but Soh repeated her silent mantra of just friends over and over until he playfully offered a history of the supposedly vintage wine that he'd procured. "Why, thank you, good sir. I'm sure I've never had any wine so fine," she teased back, accepting the bottle and taking a healthy swig. It wasn't the best wine she'd ever tasted, but nor was it the worst, and the company in which she drank it made it decidedly better than it might have been alone.
She offered the bottle to Koa, nestling down into her pillows (and if she accidentally ended up a touch closer to the dragoon, then oops). "What's your favorite constellation?"
