Summary
“Stars,” Bam repeats. “Your eyes look like them too.” There’s no reply, only more staring. Bam shifts, restless. Normally Rachel would say something, or at least laugh, but this boy’s gaze– he would ascribe a feeling to it, if only there was one. It was like it was burrowing into him with some foreign intensity Bam couldn’t dare attempt to name. It’s daunting, foreboding– it leers over him like a storm cloud, yet he isn’t afraid. For all the weight his eyes carry, the way they settle upon him brings such comfort. “It glows,” he tries to elaborate, compelled to make him understand. “They glow. Like how stars light the night sky. Your eyes are really bright, and… uh…” Bam trails off.
“... Thank you.”
His smile is instantaneous, overjoyed; he knows. He doesn’t say it, but Bam sees in his face that he understands.

An AU that is based in a fantasy world with a vaguely medieval time period while still taking major inspiration from TOG’s canonical worldbuilding; expect very little historical accuracies to real-world political systems, technology, etc. -- I do what I want at my convenience.
