The silence stretched for a moment as he did this, as talking was kinda counter-productive for this venture. But soon it was mostly off and he couldn't be bothered to try and find the rest. "Eh. I can't get it all. Why does it have to be so sticky."

He took another careful bite of the smore, and this time managed not to add to the mess he'd made before. Hooray for that, at least. Kiri was starwatching? He'd been... doing that too, kinda. While thinking. Multi-tasking.

"They're brighter out here than they are at home. I think because we live in the city, and the lights make them disappear from sight. There's so many more than I was used to seeing. They look a lot different from out here rather than from the hosp- window."

What had he been thinking about. He scratched the back of his head and considered that. Muddled thoughts had replaced whatever it was.

"I think I was thinking about that, actually. The stars and how they look different. That and how much I'm gonna miss my friends this summer."

"'s called light pollution," Kiri mumbled, struggling inwardly. She... yes, she had been a bit disappointed, and sad and angry that Raiden and her had spent so little time with each other. During the flooding of the school, Kiri had ended up in the Hospital Wing twice, and she wasn't even sure Raiden knew about that. She was pretty sure he hadn't paid her a visit. But it did not, she discovered in this instant, matter. The camp-out was just that much better now that Raiden was here.

"Er... want me... to clean your lip?" she whispered, more grateful than ever for the darkness. "And... I will miss you, too."
