VESPER
With Nova tucked comfortably at his side, Vesper turns them back toward the festival, their return marked by the subtle way shadows part for him and then fold neatly away again. The noise swells as they rejoin the crowd—laughter, vendors calling out, the low groan of ropes and wicker as another balloon is hauled into position—but he moves through it with unhurried ease, pace measured to Nova’s lighter steps.
He spots Calypso and Jack without difficulty, a familiar constellation amid the chaos, and slows as they draw near. Vesper gives a brief nod in greeting before tipping his chin upward toward the sky where balloons drift overhead in lazy arcs, colours bright against the desert blue, shadows skating across the sand as they pass.
A corner of his mouth lifts, that dry, almost-challenging smirk settling into place as he gestures vaguely upward with two fingers. "You two feel like takin’ one of those up?" he asks, voice easy, casual, as if he’s suggesting a drink rather than dangling hundreds of feet above the ground.
