vesper
Vesper lingers a step or two behind, hands tucked loose into his coat pockets, letting the current of his sisters’ energy pull him forward. The crowd hums around them, too many minds flickering and overlapping like lanterns of their own, and for a moment it threatens the same tidal weight as before. But Jack’s voice lingers sharp in his memory, that pointed suggestion to anchor himself to what matters rather than trying to weather it all. So he does. He narrows the din to two voices he knows best, tethering to them like buoys. And with Nova and Calypso ’s thoughts burning bright and unmissable, it isn’t exactly difficult.
Nova's dress gleams with every skip, her lantern a star cupped between her hands, and he can’t help the dry laugh that slips free when she twirls to show it off. He nods toward the sea of other lights already glowing across the festival grounds, the smirk tugging faintly at his mouth. "If you really want to up our chances," he drawls, "you could always go destroy a few of theirs. Make yours stand out more."
The suggestion is as deadpan as ever, but the glint in his eye gives him away, a thread of humour cut neatly through the solemn air of the festival as he lets himself be tugged along in his sisters’ wake.
