♉8 - video

[ the gear records a warmly lit room at the Goldenrod inn. it's a bit dim, just a rich buttery light coming from a lone lamp by the bed, but the viewer will have no trouble making out the picture. Tavros has just wheeled across the room in his chair and opened the window, making the curtains flutter in the chilly breeze. he doesn't seem to mind, though, and after looking outside for a long time he smiles and siiiii~ghs, then turns and reaches for the pokegear.

instead of pointing it at himself, he points it out the window ("Look!"), up at the sky. so many stars! millions and millions of bright stars on a beautiful black sky. from behind the camera, Tavros giggles quietly. ]


Which star do you think is the second one, uhh, to the right? The one that goes straight on 'till morning? It's sort of hard to tell. There's so many.

[ after a long moment Tavros sets the gear down next to him on the window sill and puts his chin in his hand, staring almost... longingly out at the night sky. ]

I heard that this "Christmas" holiday that humans have for celebrating involves receiving a visit from an individual that can make wishes happen, and I was sort of wondering if that's true. Because I have a wish that I've been wishing for very, very hard and I think now is as good a time as any for the granting of it to take place! Since, uhh, there is a particular occasion for it, that is. Maybe just, uhh... if the Claws-human could just send Pupa Pan to do the wish-giving for him instead, that would be okay with me. That would be really nice.

[ he cups his chin in both hands and smiles to himself. ]

That would be the nicest thing ever.

I don't know. Isn't that brilliant? That's never happened before, no one's ever said 'Doctor, what's that star there' and had me answer 'I don't know'!

It's quite troublesome, this 'not knowing' business. I don't know how people cope, but then it occurred to me that not knowing meant there was that much more to learn everything about. Downright clever, don't you think?

Not knowing things, uhh, well, I guess that can be clever in its own way, especially given the thing that you said, but I think it would be more clever to know all of the things. Especially stars, since there are so many, and so that would be a really impressive feat.

Oh, I knew every star back home. Every star, every planet. Not knowing something is quite new for me.

Oh, is it because they're different in this place? Because I was thinking that the things in the sky here are not what I'm used to seeing at all.

Quite different. Makes sense, whole new universe and such. New universe, new planets, all that.

Yeah, uhh, I guess that's probably right. But then again, I don't know how anyone can tell exactly which star is the second one on the right, given the, uhh, sort of relative complexity of the way that they're laid out, and stuff.

[ he kinda looks really embarrassed here like this is a thing he should have been able to do, as any good fan of Pupa Pan would. ]

I couldn't figure it out back home, either.
