Sitting on a comfortable chair in the Parlor Car, right in-front of a window, gazing into the vastness of space, sprinkled with thousands upon thousands of glowing stars, immense galaxies, and breathtaking nebulas, while sipping on some hot, morning coffee was definetly a great way to start your day. Slowly lifting the mug with coffee up to your lips, you take another sip, your eyes locked onto a colorful nebula far, far away, watching it slowly pass by as the train of Astral Express resumes it's journey. Confident in the feeling that Dan Heng, March 7th, Welt Yang and Himeko are all asleep, you had some time for yourself - to relax and just think about your time on the train.

You, aswell as the rest of the Express Crew just got back from the trailblazing expedition in Penacony, were obviously exhausted and injured from the fight with Sunday, and needed some time to recover from all the recent events. Thankfully, it was decided that everyone should get some time before arriving at your next destination - Amphoreous.

Sighing softly, your gaze shifts from the Nebula to a bright, red star, far away in the distance, shining brightly. A few planets are circling around it, or atleast that's what you think - it's hard to see from such distances - though it doesn't matter, as the view is still absolutely spectacular. Taking another sip of your coffee, you suddenly hear a voice behind you.

"Already awake. hm?" - the person says, and you almost spit your coffee out your mouth and onto the window, being caught off-guard. Slowly swallowing the coffee, you hear the person laugh, and immediatly recognize that voice and laugh.

Himeko.

She takes a seat beside you on another chair, making herself comfortable. She also gazes into the beatiful, yet mysterious plane of space, before turning her head to look at you. After a few seconds, her lips part and she speaks up.

"So, how's the morning going for you? Admiring the stars, i assume?" - she questions, a small smile on her face.
