A Dip In The Moonlight

The stranger hadn't heard her approach - though he would've been more surprised if she had, given the gentle roaring of the falls, which basically drowned out all outside noise. His playful expression only brightened when she turned to face him more properly, though it was hard to completely make out her features in the faint moonlight. She was female, and her voice only confirmed that, and likely close to his age, though he couldn't deduce much more than that quite yet. She agreed with his sentiments, and he chuckled softly in response. "I figured as much," Kai replied easily. It'd been a sweltering summer day, and he had no doubt the cool water was a welcome relief.

Considering wading in himself, he hesitated, watching as she paddled to the shore and eventually laid down on the edge of the falls. Curious, he took a few steps closer, eventually reclining to his stomach as well - though maintaining a fair distance. "She's quite a beauty, isn't she?" His silver gaze was cast to the moon then, quietly thanking the goddess Mano for bringing such a beautiful display to them tonight. He truly wondered how anyone could be anything but grateful for a night as splendid as this, and it seemed this stranger shared similar sentiments. "Sleep is overrated," Kai chuckled at the thought, truly wishing he never had to sleep. There was far too much to see and to experience to spend too much time asleep, and the night provided as much beauty as the day. To say his sleep schedule was irregular.. well, that would be an understatement. "They might, but we're not, and that's what matters." He flashed her a charming smile, though the serenity of the night seemed to entrance him, and he calmed quite quickly. "My name's Kai, by the way."
