Scientists since forever have been looking at the stars from my world, looking and wondering at what could exist out there, what other creatures, other worlds, other civilisations could thrive, just as we had on Earth. It was yet another idea, another thought that would no doubt keep me awake at night, as I now lived here, on another planet, another realm, a parallel universe?
Who knew? Certainly not me, though I would continue to ask the question.
I chuckle softly as she keeps some information from me, with promises to tell me another time, my hunger for information not outweighing my pleasure at the thought of a future interaction with this charming woman. She does speak about her family though, and I empathise with her as she speaks of losing some, and raise a brow at her comment of her mother - though I don't question it further, at least out loud.
I am glad that she has a base, a support network - I know it was one of the hardest parts about this life that I was facing, but with chance encounters like today's, I wasn't completely devoid of hope. I held her gaze while she used me to order her thoughts, unable to resist arching a brow with gentle curiosity as she did so.
"Will they be coming to Halo for Deepfrost as well?" I ask, wondering if all of the Grounders would be migrating for the season based on her recollection of events that had unfolded in the past.
