A Dip In The Moonlight

The beauty of the evening was not at all lost to the young Jarvela. He was generally the sort to notice beauty where others might not, even in the most desolate terrains, or in scenarios that were too treacherous to focus on anything but surviving. Each place had its own charm, and each living thing breathed its own life into the universe. The life of every leaf, or every flower, was just as purposeful as his own.. and though he occasionally lost sight of that, it was easy to remember on such a splendid night. Though the world was relatively dark, the moon shone brightly overhead, the stars twinkling in a majestic dance in the sky above. The soft, delicate rays of light cast a strange array of shadows down on the earth. It left the world basked in a serene glow, calming rather than eerie, at least as far as he was concerned. It was truly quite the spectacle the way the moonlight splayed down on the falls. The water, which always glimmered as it crashed over the falls, appeared even more mystical tonight. As he approached, he could've sworn his word had been flipped upside down and he was staring straight into the starry sky instead of a body of water. Grinning at the sight, his pace slowed until he was at the edge of the falls. Once he arrived there, he reclined to his haunches and let out a contented sigh. It took far too long for him to realize that he wasn't as alone as he thought, as he suddenly caught sight of a ripple in the water, which most definitely had not been caused by the stars above. Tilting his head, Kai was quiet for a long while, squinting as he struggled to make out the silhouette of whoever was wading in the water before him. An amused smile tugged at his lips, though he was too curious to linger long without announcing his presence. Kai cleared his throat before speaking up, that playful expression brightening. "How's the water tonight?" |
