A gentle breeze blew through her now dark hair. A light blue popsicle stuck out of her mouth as her green eyes stared across as the vast scenery before her. Of course though she couldn't see everything, like the entire city from ground level so she had climbed up to the clock tower at Central Station, so that she could enjoy such a beautiful scenery. Her elbows were rested on the railing of the clock tower and she moved to remove the popsicle from her mouth.
She stood on the area below the clock itself, a small tick-tick could be heard from where she stood. Headphones were on top of her head, covering one ear. The young individual wore a black dress with a black jacket over top of it. She didn't have a wide selection of clothes and one would have not guessed that a dress was part of her closet. She popped the frozen treat back into her mouth as green eyes reflected the hues of the sun and sky.
She usually enjoyed such afternoons in such a place; sometimes she went to the beach, sometimes the clock tower, sometimes other places. It just depended upon her mood and where she felt like going. Since she lived on her own she could go anywhere she pleased. Removing the popsicle from her mouth again and pointed to a star and smiled. She closed her eyes and made a wish. She was also thinking if there was the possibility that there were other worlds. Other places besides the home she knew. Besides Twilight Town. |

"Wishin' on stars, huh? Kinda dangerous to be hangin' out on a clock tower by yourself, don'tcha think?" Seifer Almasy's voice drifted from a ways back. How long had he been there? He certainly hadn't seemed to be there when she'd gotten there. Or had he been hiding just out of sight? No, that wouldn't be it; why would Seifer hide from anybody? She probably just didn't see him. But whatever it was, he was there. Why? Who cares? Seifer Almasy went where he felt like it, so long as it wasn't somewhere stupid. The beauty of Twilight Town from this clock tower wasn't lost on him; he wasn't some brainless thug, after all. He was a good ways away, though; not like he'd just suddenly appeared hovering over her shoulder.
How weird would that be? Not to mention doing that had a way of scaring people, and making someone jump and accidentally fall from way up here. What sort of jerk would do something like that? Though, most of the kids in town would have called Seifer a jerk anyways, but hey, he kept to his own rules! "Eh, whatever; don't think I've met you around here before. Name's Seifer Almasy, nice to meetcha!" He introduced himself, popping off his hat in a somewhat stylish gesture. His dad had said it was polite to tip your hat to a lady; Seifer turned the gesture into something a bit more interesting.

The young female popped the blue colored frozen treat back into her mouth just before she heard some guy's voice. She turned around slightly, blue ice and popsicle stick sticking out of her mouth. One eye-brow raised and eyes kind of wide. She hadn't seen anyone else up here and had expected that she was alone. She stared at the young man before her. She looked him up but stopped at his face as she met his eyes. Standing there with the popsicle in her mouth she was all but silent. Looking a bit odd with that popsicle inside of her mouth. She removed the melting bar of ice from her mouth and continued to look at the boy in front of her. She was about to reply when he began to introduce himself. She waited for him to finish.
"Wishin' won't hurt anybody," she began. Though, it could probably hurt her if her wish didn't come true. But, she didn't really mind. It was after all a wish. And wishes didn't usually come true that often. She would make up for that because she could probably try and make that wish come true herself. With hard work. And she was pretty safe up here on the clock tower, she had come up here often anywhoes. "Meh," she shrugged, "I've been up here to often, it doesn't even hold a shed of dangerousness for me."
"Don't think I've had the fancy of meeting you before either, I'd probably remember. Names Ellie. Ellie Wrightsworth," she said to him, introducing herself. She popped the now even more melted treat back into her mouth. It melted instantly and she began to finish it. "Oh and also I'm not alone, the stars are watching over me," she stated after she licked the last of the frozen treat off of its stick and took it out of her mouth. She smiled at the young man before her.

Seifer just shrugged. He didn't exactly consider stars to be people-- And if they were, why did they just sit up there and glare at people all night? Weird. But then, people did the same thing staring at the stars. In any case, the cause didn't matter to Seifer so much as meeting someone up here that wasn't that idiot Hayner and his group of cohorts. She had that sort of brave (or stubborn) streak that she didn't see any danger hanging half off a clock tower you could break your neck falling off of. Instant cool points.
"Eh, can't say I think the stars are people, but that's me," Seifer replied, smirking back at his newfound friend (Or, at least, someone who was in line for a lot less put-downs than were usually delivered) and leaning one hand on the rail meant to keep people from falling off the edge, blazing blue meeting equally vibrant green. Unique hairdo, but what with half the kids in this town having weird hair, hers was decidedly tamer. She was kinda cute, but those comments had to wait until AFTER he knew if she was put in with the idiots-who-do-nothing and the other-people-who-still-do-nothing-but-don't-cause-much-trouble. He blew a stray strand of blond hair out of his face, showing his scar better, but really he did it because the shoot of hair was tickling his nose, and he really didn't feel like sneezing on someone he just met.
"Nice to meet ya, Ellie. So, coming up here to admire the view? You can see a whole lot of this town from up here," He said, guessing at her reason for being up here. He hopes it wasn't 'Waiting for Hayner'.

Ellie rested her back against the railing, resting her elbows on it as she looked over at the blonde haired guy. "Yup, sure is a pulchritudinous view," she said letting the last words roll right off of her tongue. She smiled at the boy besides her. "Hey..desultory question. Have you ever wondered if there were other places out there? Like..that perhaps the stars were actually other worlds? That there could be whole other planets, or even other universes out there? That..there might be others out there different people out there?" she asked him. Her question becoming longer than she had actually expected it to be, but she wanted to ask the question right.
She leaned backwards some, leaning her face up towards the sky. Lifting her chin upwards, her hair falling away from her face. The wind blowing it gently. She smiled lightly, closing her eyes briefly. She then looked towards Seifer again, "Sorry about that question..my mind gets away with me sometimes," she laughed briefly and stood up straight again but kept her elbows rested on the railing. "So, what brought you up here? To see the scenery as well?" she asked. |

"I might'a thought about it once or twice. No idea how you'd get to another world, but the way I see it, this can't be the only place out there," Seifer answered, shrugging. It didn't matter to him that much if there were other worlds; if there were, he'd have even more chances to make himself into a hero. Not to mention if there were, he might be able to find something better to use in a fight than a wooden sword with a steel blade set in. In any case, the girl in front of him was definitely going into the group of people who didn't cause trouble.
"Me? Eh, I figured I'd come up here and look around. Didn't expect to meet anybody new up here," He said, answering the girl's second question. "I come up here to think sometimes, too."

"Thinking is good," she pointed out, "But, sometimes it can lead you to unanswered questions," she said and smiled lightly. She then didn't really know what else to say. She turned around and leaned her forearms against the railing, holding her hands together as she looked over at the city. Past tall buildings she could see the ocean. She felt like buying a boat and heading out to sea, to see if there were actually other places out there. Not that she didn't love Twilight Town; but she wanted to explore. To touch the unreachable stars. If only she could find some way to reach them.
She moved her hand up towards the sky, reaching for the stars and then slowly closed her hand. Opening it she expected, wanted there to be a star inside of her hand. But, as she opened it there was nothing but empty air. It was like an untouchable dream; there but then not there. Something out of reach. She looked towards the blond haired boy again but did not say anything. |

"That's a weird way of thinking about it. If you come to a question you don't know the answer to, then he only thing you can do is work hard until you find the answer!" Seifer said, grinning in that smug, confident way he always did. "If your dreams don't come to you, work your way to them! Nothing's impossible if you never give up! Even if it takes a long time to do, you'll get to your goal eventually!"
Seifer couldn't help but pump his fist in the air. That was something he felt strongly about; of course he was going to get excited. Though, he was probably thinking more about his own dreams than Ellie's. "So, what's your dream? That thing you want to do with your life, if you've figured it out yet."

"I'm not exactly sure yet...but it may involve exploring, ya know what I said earlier about other planets, other worlds.." she shrugged. She then looked at the at the sky again, it was getting dark. She should probably get going. She smiled at Seifer and said, "Erm, sorry to cut this short..but I should probably get going. It was nice meeting you, Seifer.." she said with a smile and placed her hand out in front of her. For Seifer to shake.
Once she said good bye she walked into the clock tower and disappeared. Her smile lingering on her face.
