Duck Lake Starwatcher

Set to the night of the 11th. Someone come hear a star story from a pregnant woman <3

So maybe it hadn't been the best idea to set off late afternoon, trotting as fast as her wide sides and swollen frame would allow her after the hopes of finding a large body of water. She wanted fish -- damn those persistent cravings and fickle appetite -- and couldn't find anything worth catching anywhere close to home. By the time she got to Duck Lake, tail wagging and chuffing in victory, the moon had begun to rise. It didn't matter right now, the water calling her name -- she didn't go further than her ankles in the icy water, shivering already but sapphire eyes straining into the water. 

The first time her paw flashed out, the Ciel lost her balance; keeping herself above water to avoid a chilling soak before Winter while pregnant was more important than the fish, and after recollecting herself, the obsidian woman sighed. She'd have to wait until the water stilled before the fish would come close, so she stood as still as possible. It didn't occur to her that someone would be close or see her, but she wasn't against company either.
