Stargazing

Digital art of two characters lying down on a rocky and grassy ground at night from Xenoblade X; a xeno with crystal hair on the left and a Cross called Apollo on the right. The bottom of the picture has text saying "It really is beautiful out here...". The xeno on the left has long crystal hair and is wearing a dark purple t-shirt hoodie with dark blue, black and silver form fitting armour all over her body. The man on the right has a dark mark around his right eye, long red and blue hair tied and braided back. He's wearing dark grey chest armour, a blue hoodie and white padded sections on his sides, and black sweats and boots.
Digital art of the same two people but now sitting up and looking slightly towards each other as they face the starry night sky with a bright full moon, and blue and red space dust. The bottom of the screen has text saying "Yeah, it is...". Some of the foliage and large rocks surrounding them are visible at the bottom and sides of the image.
Two digital art images telling a story of two people laying down on the ground and then sitting up to show off a night sky with a bright full moon, stars, and blue and red space dust. Both characters are from Xenoblade X: a xeno with crystal hair on the left and an avatar/Cross called Apollo on the right. The bottom of the first picture has text saying "It really is beautiful out here..." and the bottom of the second image has text saying "Yeah, it is...". In the first picture, the xeno on the left has long crystal hair and is wearing a dark purple t-shirt hoodie with dark blue, black and silver form fitting armour all over her body. The man on the right has a dark mark around his right eye, long red and blue hair ties and braided back. He's wearing dark grey chest armour, blue hoodies and white padded sections on his sides, and black sweats and boots. When they are sitting up in the second picture, they are facing a bit towards each other while looking out at the night sky.
