Logic had been drawing constellations all day, and Roman saw the perfect bonding opportunity.

"Ya know, little Einstein, we could head down to the imagination right now and see the stars!"

"We can?"

"Yeah! We'll get a telescope, and be real astrologists!"

Ro had brought along some brownies, cookies, and cupcakes in hopes of cleaning out some of the many desserts Logan had made 2 days prior. They placed down a large checkered blanket, one still standing telescope, and waited for the sky to change.

Once it did, the pair fell into thick inky blackness, until one by one tiny silver lights pierced the sky. Logan gasped quietly, as constellations filled the sky.

"Ro, what's your favorite constellation?"

"Well Draco, obviously! It is the representation of a dragon!"

"Don't try and slay the stars."

Roman had never laughed quite that hard.
