"Ohh, that's nice! You're from--the Midwest!" She said it somewhat like she was guessing, but it was more like a declaration. Because she knew. (Evangeline knew all the world's dialects and accents. Wishes all shared one language, after all.)

"I've heard they have really good carnivals there! Oh, wait, sorry, you asked me a question. I definitely want to play more games! These are so fun and the prizes are so cute. Look, I got this thing for getting a ring on a bottle." She waggled the little multi-coloured hand-shaped clapper back and forth so it clacked together.

"Thank you," Evangeline said to Gil, whose name she also knew, because she had heard it in Leo's thoughts. Of course.

"I think made up rules are even sillier than real rules," she declared with a friendly smile. "Society already has so many silly rules. Like--you aren't supposed to eat ice cream for breakfast. Why not? It tastes the same! Or you need to wait a day to text back a new person you're talking to. Why would I do that? If I meet someone new and they're someone I want to talk to--we should talk! And you're supposed to dress a certain way at certain events because you might upset someone if you don't--but it is all just clothes!"

Evangeline huffed a little breath. She was very passionate about silly rules that kept people from doing the things that they wanted to do.

"If you want a pumpkin spice latte, even in the middle of the summer, you should get one!"

Evangeline jumped as the buzzer went off.

"What?! How--" she yelped gleefully as Meg's water gun went off.

But then, she refocused on her own. The stream of water hit the target, but she was already far behind. Her pole rose steadily but when she glanced over at Meg's her own gun moved and she had to recenter it again.

Another loud bell went off and one of the people down the row from them's pole started flashing bright coloured lights.

Evangeline laughed. "Wow! That was fun! Sorry if I distracted you from winning."

"That's okay! I've never done it before!" Evangeline giggled as she grabbed the woman's hand and pulled her over so she could sit on the stool next to Evy's.

"My name is Evangeline! They said something about having to aim at that little hole but I keep pressing the button and nothing happens!"

"Hey! Hi!" Evangeline said, waving down a nice looking woman. (She was pretty, but she also looked friendly! Which was important when flagging down random strangers, Evangeline had learned.)

"Hi, that man says we need another person before we can play." She pointed ot the booth with stools that she'd just hopped off of. It was the game where you shoot the water at the hole and the little pole raises, I'm too lazy to look up what it is called.

"Do you think you could do it? I have extra tickets!"

Official Roommate Dinners sounded amazing! Evangeline beamed and even started to glow a little, happily.

"If you want anything off my plate, you can have it!" Evangeline told Arista as she started plating things as well. "I love sharing."

It was true, she did! There was something novel to it. Stars didn't share anything. Not even fields of gravity. Each of them had their own spaces, their own planets that orbited them (if they were lucky), their own asteroid fields. Nothing could get too close to them.

"We can definitely have official roommate dinners though...I'm not that good of a cook. Are you? I would love to learn! My girlfriends and friends have taught me things here or there but...sometimes it can still be hard. There is a lot to remember!"

Wouldn't It Be Nice to Live Together? * [Evista]

Evangeline looked up and smiled at Ken. She knew that he was right. If being human had taught her anything it was that people passed in and out of your life. Sometimes, they stayed for a long time. Sometimes, they were brief.

Stars lived a very, very long time. And there was rarely any change to their lives.

It was an adjustment, but it just meant Evangeline always wanted to hold so much tighter to people she did love and care about.

"You're right," she said, taking another noisy sip of her boba. It was almost finished now. "Thank you, Ken. I always appreciate your perspective and advice. I love you." She smiled prettily at him.

What I'd Be Without You... * [Life Size]

[evangelinee]

Evangeline tilted her head and frowned.

She supposed, really, no one had ever said they liked listening to her or what she had to say--at least, not in so many words. But she had lots of friends who did ask how she was feeling about things. And they listened. And they cared.

Her whole, long star-life, all Evangeline had been able to do was listen. It was frustrating sometimes, but it also made her very good at it. She was happy to listen. She enjoyed listening. It was even better now, because she could say things that could help--or comfort.

"I could understand that. I love the sun," Evangeline said. She'd marveled, and continued to marvel, at how warm it felt against her sun. Sweat, too, was a marvel to her. Just like everything else that had to do with having a body.

"It is so different. Going from one form to another. There will be things that you miss." Evangeline, even, sometimes missed the darkness. Her spot in the sky. Her own pull of gravity. The way she used to shine. "That's okay. It is a little sad and that's okay too." She smiled, like this was the easiest thing in the world to understand. "You just have to find the things you like about it too!"

Evangeline had come here, actually, for a Pumpkin Spice Latte! It was always so silly to her that it was a seasonal drink. Why wait if it was something you wanted?! Sometimes, she could flirt with the baristas into giving her one anyway but it always took way more time. So, she usually didn't order them anyway.

But now! They were back on the menu and she was so excited.

As she waited eagerly, she listened to the wishes that popped up around her. She always did this because no one had ever, really, taught her that it might be rude. She liked to know what people were wishing and she liked to try to help, if she could.

There were two people wishing, very loudly, about wanting to be together. Which happened more than you thought! The first time she had gone up to a couple and told them, though, one of them had left crying--it had been one of the first lessons Evy had gotten in tact.

So, she tended to leave it alone, especially if she didn't know them.

The wishing was loud and distracting and once she'd gotten her PSL, she was scurrying away so that she didn't say something--

When, lo and behold: one of the men approached her. "What? Oh! Wow! Thank you!!" she said, retracing her steps to the counter. "Oh--is this your drink? Sorry, I overheard you ordering..." That wasn't true but she had heard the name Leo in the other man's thoughts.
