*bending time and space a bit, there is a shinigami sprawled out on a convenient grassy knoll somewhere about camp, lazily watching the stars this seventh night of the seventh month*

Hmm, they're still rather far apart, though...

They'll make it!

[spring_spring]

Ahh, I'm sure they will, sooner or later~

[mooning_you]

They've just got today, so it better be sooner!

[spring_spring]

True enough, I hope they can manage it.

[thenotwhitehero]

What are far apart?

[spring_spring]

The weaver and the cowherd. *gesturing at a pair of stars*

[thenotwhitehero]

*looking up!* Is that significant?

[spring_spring]

Ah, it's an old story... the details vary a bit in the telling, but the weaver girl and the cowherd fell in love. But when they married, they neglected their duties, so the ruler of heaven separated them, putting them on opposite shores of the heavenly river. They can only meet once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh month.

Hello, Shunsui. Star gazing?

[spring_spring]

Something like that~

[idle_traveller]

[sitting down and looking up] They're very bright tonight.

[spring_spring]

They are, aren't they?

[tooshorttoride]

Stargazing, Kyouraku?

[spring_spring]

Of course! It's a fine night for it, don't you think?

[tooshorttoride]

I suppose.

[spring_spring]

Why don't you try it for a bit, Toushirou-kun?

[seven_evenings]

There's still time!

[spring_spring]

Ahh, I suppose there is~

[seven_evenings]

I'm glad it's a clear enough night to watch!

Are you going to cheer on your namesake, Orihime-chan?
