[ 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?

voice;

[dawnward]

Yes, I think so.

permaaudio;

[aslandish]

A question, for those who might answer.

[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]

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

In what manner, might one return?

voice;

[dawnward]

[sup, daddylion.]

I think anyone who tries hard enough can achieve it. Entire worlds have returned from the darkness before. If that's possible, I don't see how this wouldn't be.

[improvesmorale]

Yeah yeah yeah. What are you hoping to get out of this?

Audio

[returnsmagic]

All that are lost can be found.

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

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.

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]

Indeed. However, the past will always affect us going forward, whether we would admit it or not.

[voice]

[aslandish]

[ Very possible, indeed. ]

Not everything that falls can never rise again.

Audio

[returnsmagic]

The stars are navigators, ever steady to guide those in need. They shine their own light. Should they lose their way, there are the lights of others they can follow.

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; 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 // Private // Unhackable]

[integrity]

I suppose it depends on the star.

[Is that a shred of optimism?

Maybe.]

[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.]

( 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]

[ace_of_knaves]

Certainly not.

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.]

[Voice]

[ofthursday]

Stars don't fall from Heaven.

[Stars are from space. 8|]

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.

[audio; private]

[dragonvariation]

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

Voice

[icy_heavens]

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