She stood in the center of the room, watching as Zev tapped away at his buttons. Thesa audibly gasped though as the panels slid away, in complete awe of the view sitting in front of her.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He looked over at her to see her reaction, then looked up at the stars.

@gracehustle

"This is even better than any view from my ship," She murmured, staring out at the inky darkness, focusing on the millions of visible stars.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He nodded a little bit.

@gracehustle

Thesa walked towards the glass, never once taking her eyes off the sight before her, "Thank you Zev…for showing me this."

@ElderGod-Icefire

"You're welcome." He replied, looking at her.

@gracehustle

She studied the glittering lights, then glanced at him, "I definitely have a new item to add to my ship…a window like this."

@ElderGod-Icefire

He cocked his head a little bit. "I believe that would be too expensive." He said.

@gracehustle

"Shhhh, let me at least think it would be possible," She replied with a smile, shaking her head, "I know I could never afford it."

@ElderGod-Icefire

He nodded a little, turning his gaze up to the stars as well.

@gracehustle

"I love space, or specifically…I love looking out into space. It reminds me of how tiny my problems are in comparison to how big the universe is," She said softly, looking at him.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He blinked, considering her words. "I see." He replied, eyes flicking to her.

@gracehustle

Thesa shrugged, going silent as she walked closer to the glass and studied space.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Zev was quiet, watching her.

@gracehustle

"What do you think of space?" She asked the android, finally turning to look at him.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He cocked his head faintly. "Well… I'm not sure what you mean by that."

@gracehustle

"What do you think of it? Do you like it, does it make you wonder anything?" She asked, motioning out the window, "You said you don't have feelings…but everything has to have curiosity in them, even you. Are you curious about space at all?"

@ElderGod-Icefire

"Why would I be curious? We know what's out there: stars, planets, and gasses." He said, blinking at her.

@gracehustle

Thesa shook her head, "I know that, but just imagine what else could be out there. What could be on the planets, what things there are to discover, all of it. Is there anything you wonder about?"

@ElderGod-Icefire

He considered that quietly for a moment, then shrugged a shoulder. "Yes, that is true. But…I don't really know."

@gracehustle

She nodded, not pushing the question further as she went back to looking at the sight.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He continued gazing up at the stars, silent.

@gracehustle

Thesa stayed just as quiet, staring with amazement at the view.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He continued looking up at the stars, quiet.

@gracehustle

"Is there anywhere else on the ship that has this good of a view?" She asked softly after a while, finally turning and looking at him.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He shook his head. "No, there isn't."

@gracehustle

She nodded, then turned her eyes back to space, "Well then I suppose this is going to be my new favorite spot to visit. Should we continue the tour?"

@ElderGod-Icefire

He nodded a little, moving over to the door and tapping the button to slide it open again. "Yes, we shall."

@gracehustle

Thesa took one more long look out over the view, then followed Zev. She was quite eager to see the rest of the ship, but a small part of her wanted to stay here for a while.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Zev led her through the halls, quiet.
