Sunkit lies on his back, eyes tilted - as they often are - skywards. He blinks the sunlight from his eyes, fixes on the passing clouds. By his side, his shadow lingers loyally. He does not spare a glance to ensure she has not left; he knows she wouldn't, even in her quiet. For once, he matches it. He lets his mind drift with the clouds, somewhere far away.
They'll be apprentices soon, he thinks. Two moons is hardly any time at all. Every day passes in a sigar-high sort of haze, skipping from one to the next. Before long, they'll even be warriors. He can't even fathom a wait that long, longer than he's even been alive, and yet all he feels is anticipation. He's certain that every day will feel like this one, like the one before. Boundless and bright. Time winds outwards ahead of him like unspooling thread, and he lets an easy smile stretch across his face at the thought of it. "Do you think we'll - that we could actually be leader and deputy someday?" With no preamble, he addresses his sister. His head still does not turn, fixed on the endless expanse above.
