[attr="class","artemis"] the meteor shower reaching its peak is a welcome distraction, artemis thinks. it's not enough to xompletely distract him from the image of mint wiping reve's eyes, or the fact that he still feels too close to crying for his own comfort, but it at least means he won't have to pay any attention to whatever mint and reve are doing. not that his mind doesn't supply images for him; mint dancing with reve or whatever couples do at events like these. joking about how poor, oblivious artemis had ruined what was supposed to be their perfect date night, maybe? he knows it isn't fair of him to be upset about it, and that he should go back to them, but— his thoughts crash to a stop at how close the meteors are. they seem to be much closer than they were, and, for a second, artemis wonders if one really had touched the trees. there's a sinking feeling of dread, that he should get mint and reve and just leave, but he can't bring himself to look away, and he really doesn't want to bother either of them over something that may just be misguided nerves. he doesn't want to ruin their night. and then one of the meteors breaks off and strikes the courtyard, dangerously close to where he is. for a second, he can see the headlines; artemis chary, killed in a freak accident involving a meteor. it all happens so fast that he can't even manage to take steps away from it before it lands, so he just hopes he doesn't get killed. he doesn't want to die, and especially not like this, in a place where he's far from home and the only two people that know him are too far away to get to him in time if he does. when it lands, though, there's no explosion, no dust or gravel. instead, there's the sound of breaking glass, and more meteors fall in the general area, just far enough away that artemis is safe. he hopes— the pink gas comes closer to comfort than he would like, and...artemis' thinks he sees mint in it. just glimpses of them, like he's trying to get artemis to join him in it. he knows he really isn't, hadn't seen mint go past him into it and that he's probably still with reve, but... the announcement goes one ear and out the other before he's walking into it, hoping it isn't something that's going to kill him and he just ignored the warning. any worries are gone just as fast, though, because mint is there. mint is waiting for him, and he looks lovestruck, and he's looking at artemis like that. like he's wanting to make up for the dance from earlier; to keep whatever's left of their fairy tale night. it's easier than he expected to step closer to him, deeper into the pink mist. it's easier to get lost in it than he expected, with just him and mint and nobody else. he doesn't hear any calls for his name, not really, even as he stretches a hand out in an offering to pull mint into another waltz to make up for the last one. maybe, just maybe, this could be their perfect night after all. 9/11 TLDR: - artemis being heartbroken and watching the meteor shower. - it's time. artemis is standing close to where the first meteor hits and enters the mist because he thinks he sees "mint". - doesn't hear reve or mint because he's too focused on his dreams. offers another waltz with "mint" and thinks this could be their perfect night.
