... I guess it depends on how you look at them. Once cake fell from the sky, and while I enjoyed that, others hated it... Sometimes you can meet good people here, too, but that can be a bad thing as well...
It's fine. I guess usually it wouldn't be, but because this is another world, you can meet people from worlds other than your own, and... when one of you returns home, there's the chance you'll never see one another again...
Perhaps it is better to meet than to have never met at all though?

No...though, perhaps he just...well, he might be busy.
[But she sounds a bit sad at the thought. They didn't speak much, but the familiarity of him was something she couldn't put into words and couldn't figure out how to approach. Knowing better now, or perhaps only thinking she does, it is a shame she doesn't have the chance to.]

[ In truth, the star doesn't quite know what to make of the wings either; stars do not typically have them and these ones seem only a part of the dress. Almost as if the City couldn't figure out who she was when it brought her in. Ah well, no matter. When she catches where his glance has gone, she frowns a little at them, strange as they are to her and thinking they belong more likely on birds than anything else as she reaches behind her to where fingers intuitively find a clasp that unfastens them. Just like that she is just a girl with long hair and a white dress, simple as can be.
Well, except for the fact that she glows, but a star can't help what she is. ]
Yvaine, well, in some places, that is what I'm called.
