”Yes, it was unusual. Two more days and I would've had law enforcers knocking on our door, eviction notice in hand.” Her curiosity welcomed the new topic anyway.

”I was tidying this den up! And rehearsing the presentation, but it feels like that part could've used a little polishing. Marnie was right. Her idea was better.”

Marnie, a law enforcer. Protecting the people of Hometown mattered more to her than vegetables. Luna found her brown skin, delicate features and dark curls alluring, and with them, a difficulty to interact with her. If someone as smart as Marnie didn't oppose it, the place
was safe enough. As silence spoke for her, he smirked and raised an eyebrow, focused on the fully exposed weak point. ”She proposed it.” Attack landed right on it. He knew how to lure Luna in. She had no hidden intention of asking Marnie, to confirm the veracity of this
bold affirmation.

”Okay. I'm all ears.”

 

”Nice!” He celebrated with a little dance, not embarrassed to express his happiness. ”Thanks to the hunting team I got this place looking decent much quicker than expected. We stayed here from waning moon until the first quarter. I spent this last week hunting for them as a thank you gift. And trust me, that was rough. But worth it. It's a perfect place for vacation!”

 

”Vacation? Well, if we stay here for short periods of time...” A decision had to be made in this instant. Luna inhaled. ”I guess it's fine. Only when it looks like an actual house.” The words left her mouth before her brain could form any thought. She allowed no room for imaginary catastrophic scenarios this one time.
