Moon leaves Greece and returns to the castle.

Home is best for the annoyed tarot.

She settles herself on the railing of the balcony outside her room, her feet swaying in the salty breeze as she watches the sun set and the two moons rise.

It was wonderful being home. No minds or paths or pleas for help weighed on her. She was free to just be, and to be near her family. What good is one tarot card, after all? No, you need them all to function or else nothing worked right.

She hums to herself, toes teased by the air and her mind at complete ease.

Home is where the heart is.

She gives her sister a little shove with her elbow.

"If you aren't careful, you'll slip off the railing and right into the water," she teases as she shoves gently again.

Ack! Elbow attacks!

So uncalled for. There is a mock glare for as much good it does when she's become so cheerful again. "If I forget how to fly."

Star doesn't say that there isn't very much a way for someone to not love Moon. Or that being feared by some people is because of their love for her.

What she does say is, "You'll tell them in their own time. We know that because we know you, and your marvelous changing faces."

Faces, it shall be remarked here, is said so very subtly that it sounds like 'faces' and 'phases'.

"I'd tell Indy first. He deserves it," she says thoughtfully. "Miniver might not know how to deal with my affection... and Draco wouldn't appreciate it yet."

More quiet thinking.

"Rabastan might mistake my love and affection for him as something more than it is. I just know him enough to know that."

Star nods, bobbing a little as her form becomes lighter though still sitting, which reflects the change of direness. "Rabastan is a strange one from what I can gather."

"Indy will be amazing," there was a pause before the last two words. She had almost said laugh, because that face would be amused and amazed all at once. The treasure of a lifetime in so few words.

"And no, Draco is not ready. He only starts to realize his actions. His feelings for them will come, and then the feelings for himself, too."

"But Miniver," Star hesitated with a smile beginning to play on her lips. "I think you misjudge him. I think he will understand least of all, accept fastest of all, and may need to hear it more than either two others."

This may be the tell tale sign of an impending visit, because theres a watching fondness in it.

"Maybe," she agrees, in response to Miniver. "Maybe not. Only one way to know."

Moon closes her eyes and smiles faintly.

"I like being home."

Star looked up at the sky smoothing her smile to something smaller.

"Me, too."

And it was true. Because though she was not alone, it was not the same and being here reminded her why she was one of many and not one alone.

"I think perhaps I will roost a while longer, as you put it. I have missed it."

Moon rests against her sister, hands still entwined, and smiles pleasantly out at the ocean and night sky.

"It's missed you," is all she whispers, content to sit here with Star for a long while to come.
