[Anastasia]

You find the grove in question is quiet - a cluster of trees in the middle of nowhere, the center free of tree branches and letting pure sunshine down. Here Moonlight naps away as she lies on the grass, head on her folded up clothes as a pillow. She's not wearing anything, a glimpse before Xandra steps in front of you. "Ahem, a moment? I don't believe she anticipated being disturbed in her sunbathing."

[Nephrite]

Moore smiles and nods as he turns to fly a polite distance away and keep his back to them.

[Anastasia]

You hear it.

"Wake up, please," Xandra calls.

"Mgh....mmmmmmmm? Who're you?" Moonlight says around a yawn.

"Xandra of Celestia. Duke Moore is here to see you." The reply is cool, pleasant enough.

"Oh, is he...ah!" Moonlight shrieks, "Can't a girl tan without someone peeping on her?!" The rustle of cloth, "Send me a message if you're going to show up next time!"

[Nephrite]

"Sorry!" Comes the call from a few feet away. "I wasn't expecting to drop in if that helps!"

[Anastasia]

Sorry, got hit by an RL thing. Back now.

"A little, but how do you get here without expecting it," Moonlight shoots back. "I'm dressed, I'm dressed."

[Nephrite]

"You'll Have to ask Xandra." Moore says as he flies over. "We are on a bit of a hunt for Jetina. Was she here to see you by any chance?"

[Anastasia]

Moonlight is wearing a simple red dress, matching her hair. With a faint blush and her arms crossed under her bosom, "Yes, she stopped by.

[Nephrite]

"Do you mind if I ask you why, exactly?" Moore ... asks.

[Anastasia]

Blowing back one of her bangs out of her face, "She said she'd been traveling and wanted to stop by, wash the scent of Fire out of her clothes. We didn't talk that much back on Aurora, but there was hardly time near the end. So we spend a day talking and getting to know each other."

[Nephrite]

"So she didn't leave too long ago, then?" Moore asks. "Do you know where she was headed after that?"

He knows the answer to that question, of course, but he has to ask anyway.

[Anastasia]

"A few days ago," Moonlight takes a long breath in and out, "I haven't had time beyond that, I've been busy until today."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods. "Okay. Do you know where she got off to after spending time with you?"

[Anastasia]

"Lunia," Moonlight says, "She said she wanted to spend some time on a real beach with real water, whatever that meant."

[Nephrite]

And thus, of course, it all circles back, like it should.

"All right. Hey, I'll send you a message in a few days, but if you want to come visit, I have a base of operations on Lunia myself." Moore says. "We ought to catch up and see if there's some collaboration we can do that isn't just selling ravages to people -- but that was really lucrative, so maybe we'll do that again too."
