A/N: A second fill for the square Swan/Firmament.
The light show had ended, but still Jack and Ianto lingered in the pre-dawn stillness, gazing at a sky filled with more stars than could ever be seen over Cardiff. Jack had long since memorised earth’s constellations and now he pointed them out to Ianto, though he suspected his lover already knew their names.
“That’s Cygnus, the swan. One constellation, dozens of stars. Earth’s astronomers are only just learning how to detect planets around distant stars, but they’re out there, millions of them.”
“Do you miss it? Travelling among the stars?”
“Sometimes. Someday we’ll visit them together.”
“I’d like that.”
TBC in ‘Homeward Bound’

In a few years' time, hopefully they'll be able to hitch a lift offworld, and then they'll have the whole universe to explore!
Thank you.
