Stargazing
“Alas, if I couldst plucketh a star from the sky and bestow it upon thine eyes. Even now, the world standeth still before thee. With the stars in thine eyes, a goddess thou wouldst be. My fate, in thy hands.”
…
Fyrwyb and Urianger spend a LOT of time together on the island when they can get away from all the post-doomsday activities. Oftentimes they clear the whole sanctuary out, so its just them and the stars. uwu

day 2: earth
From the journal of Estelle de Laussienne, 4th of the 6th Umbral Moon, 5 7A.E.
It was my father who loved rabbit best. I remember that. He was never much for the kitchen, but treated the stewpot properly enough on longer trips when we'd camp between settlements; rabbit was easy to catch, or cheap to buy off a passing hunter. In the central highlands of Coerthas, he would send me off to forage little cèpes and chanterelles, and with them he would make civet de lapin with a finish of blood in the broth. The eastern highlands loved its orchards dearly, where he would buy rabbit already marinating in apple vinegar, and we would have lapin en saupiquet, or other times, stewed in cider. Lapin à la moutarde. Blanquette de lapin. Lapin en gibelotte. A dozen dishes, each embroidered in the specific pattern of him, remembered with a startling clarity when I am given a moment to stop, to breathe.
I tell myself that I ought to be patient with them. They mean well. The world might be ending and everyone means so terribly well.
But I have not had a proper meal since Garlemald, I believe. I think. I can hardly recall; I've scarcely had time to sit, let alone look at a watch, and the matter of time gets -- smudged, on occasion. Indistinct. Urianger might protest, but surely Hydaelyn would not miss one or two of Her awful little helpers?

You wish to know why I have flourished while my countrymen have languished? Hmm... No, I don't think you do.
Bonus Height Comparison with Ajisai Below:
Ajisai is an almost max height femra so she’s like ~5’2” or 5’3”? The tall lady is tall. Like at least 1 1/2 Ajisais.

"Thou wouldst have me wear this silly hat whilst thine outfit is so...warm and flattering?"
Fyrwyb nods curtly, her hand extended towards Urianger with said hat between her fingers.
"Just trust me! Yer sure t'be cute as a button."
Urianger is doubtful, but he cannot refuse his beloved when she eyes him so hopefully.
