A warm breeze off the ocean, a dark sea and sky stretching out before them. Pearl sighed, deep and content, and settled in against Sheena's soft bulk.
"Look," her girlfriend said, pointing up. "A shooting star!"
"Yes," said Pearl.
Sheena looked at her sidelong. "What? That's it? No comment about how it's actually a rock burning up in the atmosphere?"
Pearl blushed. It was indeed the kind of comment she'd usually make, but… "I suspected you already knew."
"True," said Sheena. "But don't let that stop you. I like it when you talk about space. You just seem to… glow."
