"What I'm thinking?" She flicked her gaze back to his face. "I'm thinking about polar bears, and aliens, and how the moon always seems to outshine the brightest star...I'm thinking about clouds that dance in red-splattered skies, and how even the saddest of people can find something to laugh about..." Finn looked at him, stared at him. She reached out and placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. "And how someone's eyes can always light up when they smile."
Bradin looked at the floor and the space between them. Epic. Then he felt Finn's hand on his shoulder. He smiled slightly. Then his gaze met hers again, but he was still expressionless and......unreadable.
"So you're not hating what I just said, and not thinking I'm a total idiot" he replied trying to get to grips with what she was saying.
