"Like you." The statement is innocent, childlike in how guileless it is. Aubrey is like that for David, after all; his presence makes things better.

Eyes still on the stars, he leans his head against Aubrey's shoulder. "Tell me about them?" he asks. "These stars."

"Ah, well." He leans back, eyes flicking skyward a moment before settling back on David.

"That all depends on the company that I'm in."

His hand sketches out a vague shape in the sky: "If memory serves, they call that one the Hart," he names it. "And there," his hand moves slightly to the left,"is it's hunter."

Hunting, not the best subject but not triggering at least. David nods, following the stars with his eyes and with Aubrey's thoughts. "Do they have stories, like the ones on Earth?" he asks.
