Constellation 01

[Arthur seems quite startled as he appears on the Plane. For a moment, there is a look of confusion on his face, but it soon changes to one of delight] Oh, this is brilliant. Don’t recall having a dream like this before. [Gazing up, he begins to see what stars he can recognize] There’s Arcuturus, then Rigul. I don’t recognize any in that particular cluster… Even in the country, you can’t see stars as bright as these.

[Then he looks down at the ‘floor’. Rather than being scared that he is apparently walking on nothing, Arthur kneels, grinning as he traces constellations with his finger] There’s the Diamond of Virgo; Arcturus, Spica, Denebola, and Cor Caroli. The Big Dipper, of course. [then a frown as he pauses over a particular group of stars] Hold on. This is the Great Square of Pegasus, isn’t it? Shouldn’t be able to view these two at once. Diamond of Virgo is for spring, the Great Square of Pegasus for summer…..

A bit worrying, if my dreams have such simple mistakes.

{You mean you'd let me get away with corrupting this young scientist?}

{Oh, no, but I was wondering how difficult you might be about it. But really, I sort of assumed you might not mind if he stopped bothering you.}

{Should probably put on a show, though. Don't want him to think he's unwanted. Poor kid's been through so much.}

{I did hear that. I never even knew those parts of his life. That's surprisingly generous of you, Master.}

{I'm quite the kind soul, Doctor. I try to hide it, but it's true.}

{Oh, no, I've seen you with kittens. I'm afraid you can't hide it any longer.}

{I suppose I'll have to step out of the closet, then.}

{Don't worry, we're all very accepting.}

{So you say. Not sure I can believe you.}

{I'm afraid you're going to have to trust me, Master. Really, your love of kittens is perfectly natural.}
