At least now some of their names made more sense to him. Not so random, not just plucked and pieced together by whatever sounded good off tongue tips. There was a structure and order to the way Charon and Amekaze had named their children, though perhaps not all names were of constellations in the night sky. But Dirge was far from knowledgable in that area and only presumed that each and every star had a name. And perhaps by extention, they all knew what they were. It must have been nice, to have that sort of stability, to be nurtured and taught such things. For them not to be seen as trivial or a simple hobby.

A flicker of envy curled the edges of his thoughts as Arcturus trailed off, and the younger wolf's gaze had settled on him once again. There were a great many to choose from, he thought, and almost wondered if it were impossible to consider every star a name with the way they dotted a night sky.

"I know we've considered Orion, and Vega, maybe an Aries too," he thought aloud. His brow furrowed. "Hydra rattled off many names, honestly. I think if she could have her way she'd use them all in one go." He left a humored expression cross him, his lips turning upwards genuinely.
