"Atmosphere is what does that? I'd never have guessed that." He settles back into his seat, expression becoming thoughtful once more. "They twinkle, in my dreams, and distance doesn't matter there. You can fly through galaxies that are like the most beautiful stardust, or see nebula and stars and suns and planets in all kinds of amazing combinations. Everything feels so close, even though it's so vast."
All the attention has her purring away softly and pressing against her good new human friend. If Adia is ever distracted by her conversation Lyra is more than happy to seek out her stroking hand and remind her of what's important here - Namely more petting.
"Thank you." He tries not to let his smile waver, but it's difficult. Adia is not alone in feeling like his situation is an awkward way to start a relationship. "She's gotten along well with my friends so far. I'm grateful for that." He ducks his head guiltily and rubs a knuckle between his fingers. "I think it's just... It feels strange. To be meet this stranger and be told she's going to be my wife. It's, um... practical. It didn't strike me how odd a practical marriage would feel."
