So I wanted to do another drabble, and went back for another word of the day. The connection here is first of all that Kyou was the character I thought of second (the first and obvious choice being Sailor Saturn). Kyou is a Capricorn ~ the zodiac sign ruled by Saturn. Also, Lees was bugging me a bit ago to finally write some Furuba. So I did. XDDD Fifteen minutes, not counting the time it took me to verify Kyou was a Capricorn and Capricorn was ruled by Saturn. 100 words. ^_^;;;;

The stars were bright here, as bright as they had been at his teacher’s place, he reflected as he stared into the sky. They winked above him, shining in the distance. How far away were they, anyway?

Her bell-like laughter floated through a nearby window, followed immediately by something breaking and her vehement apologies.

He wished she was as far away as the stars.

It hurt to know how close she was.

He pleaded to anyone willing to hear a cat for the courage to act as he felt. The impassive sky only strengthened the ache in his heart.
