Oh Miss Writer,

I'm so happy to see you again. Thank you for bringing me here.

Even if I don't end up in a game, I'm content being among so many from Earth.

Thank you.

[Someone is not pleased as her eyes narrow.]

Princess.

[forevergazing]

[Serenity still doesn't understand what she has done to upset Mercury, honestly.]

Mercury, I'm glad to see you.

[waterfell]

[So much. So very much.]

Enough of that. What I want to know is what you're planning to do now that you're here.

[forevergazing]

I've not made any plans, Mercury. I have only just arrived and my writer still wishes to decide what to do.

[waterfell]

Then there's nothing for us to speak about.

[forevergazing]

You're leaving?

[waterfell]

[A beat, and then:] There's nothing to stay for.

[forevergazing]

Please don't leave.

[mominthemoon]

Serenity. My daughter. [The queen opens her arms at once. A thousand emotions are held behind the calm smile; she nearly feels herself ready to tremble.]

[forevergazing]

Mother! [Serenity instantly goes and hugs her mother tightly.] I did not think I would be so blessed as to see you here!

[mominthemoon]

We have been granted a gift by Fate. Let us be thankful for it.

[forevergazing]

Then I am truly blessed, to be brought here and so quickly reunite with you.

[mominthemoon]

I have waited many thousands of years to be able to look upon you again.

[forevergazing]

Oh my mother, I am so sorry to hear that. [She hugs onto her mother even tighter. But what happened? She had only just saw her mother.] Have you been well I hope? What happened?

[mominthemoon]

[She has spoken to her daughter's future incarnations more than to her daughter. The queen summons a smile meant to be reassuring.]

It will be well in the end.

[forevergazing]

Is it not well now?

[mominthemoon]

[Perhaps it is her own fault, sheltering Serenity so much that she is ignorant of events.]

Not so long as you keep your heart strong.

[forevergazing]

I will do my best to make you and our people proud, mother.

[mominthemoon]

I know that you will.

[frondsandanemones]

WELCOME!

[forevergazing]

Thank you so much for such a kind and exuberant welcome.

[frondsandanemones]

Hehehe, don't mention it!

Everybody should have a friendly welcome after moving on to different waters.

After all, it's a whole wide sea of people out there, and who knows who or what you might find!

[forevergazing]

Oh yes, you are quite clever to use water to describe things so. Nothing can be quite so shifting and yet welcoming as the oceans sometimes. Or so I have heard Earth's oceans described.

[frondsandanemones]

Ohh... I had seen the Earth's oceans a few times while watching Jade. It looked like so much fun!

I would really like to sea it someday.

[forevergazing]

As would I. Perhaps in my time here, I shall get to make such an excursion!

1/2

[frondsandanemones]

And then take a swim! Ooh.. that sounds nice. It has been a while since I've taken a dive anywhere...

2/2

[frondsandanemones]

...wait.

You've never been to an ocean before? Did you live on the land or something?

[forevergazing]

On the moon, there are no oceans like the ones on earth. Or seas are not nearly so impressive nor do they cover the moon so. Please do not misunderstand me though, I adore my home with all my heart.

[frondsandanemones]

Humans could live on the moon? I thought you needed air!

[forevergazing]

Oh, I am not human. I'm Lunarian.

[frondsandanemones]

Glub?

Oh my <3 what a cute icon!

[forevergazing]

I am the daughter of Queen Selene of the Moon, Princess Serenity. And yes, I must admit we look very similar to humans, but I am much more long-lived than they.

Thanks :D she's a very cute troll x3

[frondsandanemones]

...so you're a separate species of humans that rule over them?

[forevergazing]

No, I am not human at all. Our kind have existed long before humans. And we do not rule them, only protect them. They are ruled by their own kings and queens.

Oh man she is so confused right now

[frondsandanemones]

You're not making any glubbing sense.

[forevergazing]

How am I confusing you? Perhaps I could clarify?

[frondsandanemones]

[She nods, and wonders if this is how it was when the kids found out about them...]

[forevergazing]

What is it, you do not understand?

[frondsandanemones]

Whale... you look human, but you're not. You are a long-lived race that lives where they can't, and you watch over the humans and are a princess.

In my race, you'd be human royalty, but you said that's not true.
