The man is visibly buoyed at the offer of a better place to go skywatching, and Bart smiles up at him, gesturing with his free hand toward the beach.

"The bluffs near the water's edge are honestly unmatched, unless you're willing to go climbing up the mountains proper. I do wish that there were such things as proper long range telescopes here, but as you said, with so little light pollution it's hardly an issue." He's happy to continue chattering as he leads the way up the main road toward the beach, just so that he can point out the spot rather than simply leaving the man to his own devices to get there.

Bart's voice is unmistakably an intellectual British, softened around the edges by his own rather timid nature.
