I wasn't planning on getting back into the Thursday Prompts just yet, but my brain apparently had other plans. 'Cause as soon as I saw that
duroc had put up the word "star" this week, this little scene popped pretty much complete into my head.
If you're unfamiliar with Gus and his adventures, feel free to leap back to the first of them and click through them all from there to get yourself acquainted. Or if you want the real inside story, you can pre-order a copy of Kazka Press's Bronies: For the Love of Ponies anthology and get the never before told story of how Gus met El Brujo.

The star Procyon:
Got its name because it rises an hour or so before Sirius, the Dog Star. As for raccoons, I can only assume that someone early on decided that they were the canine equivalent of Neanderthals or something... :)
I've always considered myself really lucky to live half a block away from the Pacific ocean, so most of the night sky around here isn't all covered with the reflected glow of city lights. Lotsa good star gazing!

One last little note... I think I shall always remember this - I was on a ship off of Bermuda many and many years ago that had a semi-power failure so there were no lights on deck. You could look into the heavens and they seemed ready to absorb you. I can full understand how it was that the ancients looked to the sky and saw so very much.
