[ Wanda's voice breaking the silence is a welcome thing. There's only so much of this heaviness in his heart that he can take. And ironically enough, he can't help but feel the exact opposite of what she says. His lips quirk for a brief moment as he folds his arms across his chest. He's not laughing at her though. If anything it's aimed at the the stark contrast in what they are both clearly yearning for more of.
In Wanda's case it's a moment of peace in the rare quiet that they've found. For Cassian, it's an escape from it so that he didn't have to think about all the things that would otherwise keep him up at night. Though if his experience so far has taught him anything, it's that no matter what - whether it's noisy or quiet - the thoughts keep on racing anyway.
His gaze drifts from her before tilting back towards the sky. There's still too much light to see the stars but the sunset that was starting to bleed a brilliant orange and yellow was beginning. ]
It was easy to see stars in my galaxy - if you had the means to. Maybe I didn't appreciate it enough. [ There's a pause that allows the thought, the tinge of regret, colour the air. ] How is it holding up to your expectations?
