[ There are no grand and glorious proclamations this day, nor joy nor exultations, though his mood is far from poor. Rather, he is thoughtful, and it reflects in his words and tone. ]

A star falls from heaven.

Can it someday return, restored to its proper place?

What is this?

permaaudio;

[aslandish]

A question, for those who might answer.

voice;

[dawnward]

Yes, I think so.

voice;

[aslandish]

[ Oh hey there, son, how's it going. c: ]

In what manner, might one return?

[voice]

[deductives]

[Sometimes Sherlock wonders if Aslan's metaphors are always relevant on purpose. Entirely possible.]

Shooting stars are really just meteorites in the end, aren't they?

[voice]

[aslandish]

[ Very possible, indeed. ]

Not everything that falls can never rise again.

Audio

[returnsmagic]

All that are lost can be found.

To return, that depends. Does it want to return?

Audio

[aslandish]

It may, and it may not.

There are also those who wish to, but do not truly believe they can.

Voice;

[no_resignations]

No. No matter how one tries, the past is something that cannot be erased. Unless there is no memory, the star will not be able to shine precisely the same. Whether it is duller or brighter depends upon the star. Some will take the past and brighten their glow, others will shrink from it and be overshadowed by the other stars.

Either way, it is impossible for the star to ever be restored to how it once was.

Voice;

[aslandish]

Whatever the circumstance may be, we are ever granted a choice.

Voice

[magnetic_magpie]

[There is one who the question immediately brings to mind, a star who fell. With six pairs of wings which have added another layer to his now infrequent nightmares.]

Yes.

[Because it has to be yes. There has to be a point, or it's torture. So his answer is shift, sure, something which must be believed.]

Voice

[aslandish]

To hope for something better is the beginning of restoration.

Voice; and I apologize in advance for KOS-MOS's cold logic

[needtobecleaned]

A fallen star cannot return to the sky as it is nothing more than a meteoroid passing through a planet's atmosphere.

Voice; IT'S COOL he is used to all types c:

[aslandish]

A star has ever been more than the sum of its parts.

[Voice // Private // Unhackable]

[integrity]

I suppose it depends on the star.

[Is that a shred of optimism?

Maybe.]

[Voice // Private // Unhackable]

[aslandish]

[ hi, Crowley c: ]

What might the circumstances be, to herald the fallen's return?

[Video]

[thelightbringer]

No.

[His voice is just very soft, assured. Resigned. There is no heaven for him to go back to, and even if there was...he'd rather make something new.]

permaaudio;

[aslandish]

[ Ah, Lucifer. Yours is an expected answer, that saddens him no less to hear it. ]

For what reason?

( voice )

[dilemma]

Maybe it shouldn't.

[ it's obvious he's bitter about this. falling stars just remind him of passing comets... and those just remind him of Katherine and Stefan. ]

( voice )

[aslandish]

Why not?

[voice]

[ace_of_knaves]

Certainly not.

[voice]

[aslandish]

For what reason?

however aslan may interpret him~;

[olderthandirt]

If it were destined to be so.

[He has watched the rise and fall of many a "star"; bore witness to the demise of planets while others rose to glory and prominence. Such was the cycle.]

s'up broself~

[aslandish]

A story cannot be told if choices are never made.

[Voice]

[ofthursday]

Stars don't fall from Heaven.

[Stars are from space. 8|]

[Voice] the new comm's first threadjack

[paterelohim]

How were you a fan of my work? I'm 50% stupid metaphor, 50% purple prose, and 50% thesaurus.

voice;

[servingfather]

No. While it may return if it wishes, the fall has changed the star. It's no longer the same as it once was.

Nothing short of resetting the universe can restore the star.

voice;

[aslandish]

Should the entire world be re-written for the sake of a single star?

[audio; private]

[dragonvariation]

That truly does depend on which purpose the metaphor serves at the time.

[audio; private]

[aslandish]

[ Oh hey there, voice-twin. Funny how they both tend to ask such philosophical questions, isn't it? ]

It varies with each answer given.

Voice

[icy_heavens]

... Hopefully. [Three guesses as to who he's thinking about, here. And the first two don't count.]

Voice

[aslandish]

[ Awww, Hitsugaya. He knows. ]

It can be done.

video;

[paterelohim]

Sure, why not?

[He answers flippantly, and only belatedly seems to realize what weight the answer has- with Lucifer's answer right there in front of him.]

permaaudio;

[aslandish]

[ It holds a great deal of weight, though there are plenty of reasons he chose to ask this question. ]

How would you envision the return of a fallen star?

voice;

[todomarishi]

Depends on how far it's fallen, I guess.

voice;

[aslandish]

Do you believe there to be a point where one can never return?

[madvaporskillz]

Is a star that's fallen still a star?

[aslandish]

The shape of a star may change, but the essence remains the same.

text.

[mom_to_us_all]

Yes.

permaaudio;

[aslandish]

[ Oh hey there, Wolf!Mama. c: ]

Have you seen it?

voice;

[momchester]

Asking this... What are you trying to learn about us?

voice;

[aslandish]

[ Ah, Mary. Such a pointed question you ask.

There is little he can learn that he doesn't already know, but -- ]

I would hear your answers, and speak with you in turn.

[ Not for his own, personal benefit, no, for though he has great knowledge, he prefers to listen to what others tell him. ]

[madeinoblivion]

When was-

[He begins, before catching himself... because he has never really been a little kid.]

I used to believe... that you could hit a falling star right back up into the sky...

I know that light can come back.

[aslandish]

[ Awww, Joe. It's still a nice thought.

He smiles. ]

It depends on the star.

The light returns to those who seek it out.

voice;

[beyondmeasure]

Oh, yes, of course. Otherwise the natural balance of life is disrupted.

voice;

[aslandish]

[ He smiles though she cannot see it. ]

In what other ways might the balance be disrupted?

voice

[nicecollarbones]

I think... what's gone is usually gone.

voice

[aslandish]

That which falls is not always lost forever.

voice;

[spiderlilies]

Well, I think that depends entirely on the star.

[aslandish]

In what way?
