once in a lifetime

Nn... not that one.

[Arms laden with a telescope and a blanket, you could see this Ven frantically running around from world room to world room. He takes one look at the sky, frowns, and exits almost immediately, scooting off to the next room hastily with decisiveness.]

Not that one either...

This is my daddy's favorite room. He brings mama here sometimes.

Really? ... wow, I can see why. This place is really pretty. And it's got a great view too.

Thanks for showing it to me.

[Hair ruffles IT'S NICE TO BE THE TALL ONE :D]

[He just beams up at him.]

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

What are you doing awake so late, though?

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

[He hesitates, but then looks down, looking guilty.]

Couldn't sleep.

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

... what's wrong?

[Kneels down to look at him better.]

[A-aw. Smiles a little]

Hey. You know, I used to get them too before. Looking at the stars help though. Wanna stay here and keep me company?

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

'Kay!

[Sets the blanket down so they can sit, setting up the telescope.]

[Auren climbs onto the blanket and settles down to look up at the stars.]

[He's got some snacks with him, but he pulls out his trusty camera first, training it at the sky.]

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

[Snacks?! What kinds of snacks.]

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

[JUNK FOOD. HAVE AT IT.]

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

[HE IS TOTES GETTING INTO THAT NOW.]

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

[Grins at that, before realizing the moon is partially covered now.]

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

[What tipped you off? The kid's sudden gasp of delight as he points up at the moon excitedly?]

Look it!

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

Yeah!

[Oops, camera. The telescope's set up, he can look.]

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

[Ren hops up to run over and tug excitedly at Ven's pant leg. He's practically squealing with delight. Seems like someone inherited the astronomy geek-gene.]

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

[Make that two, Liana's crazy about those things too.

He picks Ren up so he's higher, carrying him in his arms and watching.]

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

[Ren clings to Ven, staring up in awe.]

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

Whoa...

[Moon turns into orange reddish! (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/a6/12_21_10_Lunar_Eclipse_OrlandoFL-cropped.jpg)]

Why's it look like a pumpkin?

[He peers curiously down at Ven.]

[deleo-amicus.livejournal.com]

[Laughs.]

Would you eat that?

[didntfallfar.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh! Me an' Uncle Roxas could turn it into a pumpkin pie!
