username; eclipse.
name; Astrid
gender; male

personality; Astrid is a very kind and gentle itty. He studies space and loves looking at the stars. His dream is to one day go to space, although that dream is rather unlikely. Astrid loves reading adventure books and drawing, and you will often find him tucked into a corner in his own private house, reading. He likes keeping everything neat and orderly, and most of the items in his house are blue or purple. He has a collection of space models that he's very proud of, and continues to expand. Although he doesn't realize it yet, Astrid has a special connection with the universe and can hear what the stars have to say.

small story; Astrid sighed, looking up at the expanse of sky. Blues and purples faded into black, and the first hints of the stars were taunting him. "One day", he muttered quietly, pressing his book to his chest. His mouth curled into a small smile. The sky was so beautiful, so big, so free. He felt trapped on this little planet; he wanted to go out there, among the stars. Sometimes he could almost hear their whispers, begging him to come. Almost... "Astrid..." the quiet whisper snapped Astrid to attention and he turned around to find Pandora standing behind him. His lower eyes looked down at her lithe form, her wings gently tucked against her flank, while his upper pair focused on her burning eyes. "Can you tell me more... about the galaxies?" she asked hopefully, her gentle voice like a melody to Astrid's ears. "Sure!" he said enthusiastically, and started telling Pandora all he knew about the different stars and how they came to be. Pandora's eyes were alight and a pleasant expression was on her face. When Astrid finished, she shook her head. "How do you know all this stuff?" she asked, her wings spread slightly apart. Astrid was taken aback. He hadn't realized he knew this much... It had kind of just come to him, and he couldn't pinpoint an exact place he got the information from. "I'm not sure..." He muttered, and Pandora's eyes burned with curiosity. She nodded, and turned away, scurrying down the hallway to her own room. Astrid's eyes wandered and he was staring at the sky once again, the stars twinkling at him as if inviting him to join their ranks. "How do I know...?" He wondered, the thoughts circling in his head. Eventually, he became tired, and fell asleep beneath the open sky, the stars singing him a quiet lullaby.
