"I... never really thought of that," she murmured. "I understand the science behind all of it, but I didn't think that it would have an effect on something as simple as a sunrise or even color perception. It's fascinating!" And unlike some people, she seemed to genuinely think so, even if they were talking about refraction.

"Me too. Sunsets can be very pretty, but there's a refreshing feeling that comes with sunrises. A new day beginning, a fresh start, one day closer to your goals. I'd rather think of new beginnings than the close of a day." With a small smirk, she glanced back at Kirk and admitted, "I have to say, though, I took you for someone who preferred sleeping in, so I wouldn't have pegged you for the sunrise sort."
