( she's opted to come at night. she seems to go most places at night, lately, after her errand girl duties in city hall are completed; to a place like this, with the noise of water splashing to and fro, it's quieter during the evening hours. there aren't as many people milling about in the woods once night takes over, and so caroline gets an entire bench to herself.
it's a good spot to sprawl out, blonde hair tumbling towards the ground as she lays flat on her back, peering up at the night sky. it's still so strange to her to see stars so clearly. and it's without much effort that caroline finds herself having laid there for a good few hours, the slow pass of cloud coverage the only indication of time gone.
she's content to lay and think and daydream — nightdream? — in her quiet little spot, accompanied only by the sounds of water splashing as the rare person comes to investigate too... that is, until her drifting inner monologue is interrupted by the sudden realization that something quite bright is in her field of vision. and it's not something, it's someone. )
Wow. ( it's enough of a surprise to maybe even earn sitting up again, pulling her hair into a loose topknot as she does so. ) Do you have a dimmer switch, or are you always this bright?
