[They can plan visits— Moon wouldn't stop him from going. He's promised a few worldhops of his own, after all. But that's all logistics they can figure out later, along with all the delightful domesticity of settling a partner into his home.

For now though, he's sweeping Randy up in his arms and SPINNING]

Yes! Yes yes yes!

[crimeson]

[sdflkgf SCOOPED AND SPUN, clinging and laughing delightedly.]

Damn, I thought you'd be happy, but-!

[eggstinction]

[trills loudly, laughing with him]

I am not happy, I am the happiest!

[crimeson]

You might have competition for that one, love~

[eggstinction]

Your happiness is my happiness! My happiness is your happiness.

[crimeson]

Sharing it, huh? I like that.

[eggstinction]

It is that rare thing that once shared is twice doubled.

[sets Randy down, but his arms are still wrapped around him]

Everything I have was already yours, but now you can see it all for yourself.

[crimeson]

I'm hype!!

[yeah he is not LEAVING moon's arms,]

[eggstinction]

I could show you now. My things are packed, my affairs here are in order.

[crimeson]

If you're good to go, I'm good to go.

[eggstinction]

Then let us not tarry longer.

[he only has to grab a few things from Cerberus, including his carnivorous bush Sharky, but he's got enough arms to gather his packages and still keep a hand free for holding Randy's. and to slip a small pouch into Randy's hand.]

[crimeson]

[carnivorous bush...

yeah Randy's just inventorying his big fucking gun and calling it good for now.

pausing at the pouch though, weighing it in his hand.]

Hm?

[eggstinction]

[it feels about the size and weight of a stone marble inside]

For you. I was keeping it until you were back.

[crimeson]

Keeping it, huh...

[peering into the pouch]

[eggstinction]

[it's one of the large moonstone beads from the necklace of office that Moon sometimes wears. those are polished smooth, but he's used his claws to carve this one to look like a curled up dragon. there's eight tiny gemstone chips for its eyes and it's strung on a silk cord stolen out of one of Moon's robes.]

There was a holiday party and some of the ones celebrated had the tradition of giving gifts.

[crimeson]

[DEVASTATED (AFFECTIONATE)]

Oh my Goddess, this is so good... You're adorable, you know that?

[immediately putting it on.]

I'll have to get you back, soon.

[eggstinction]

[waves his tail happily HEHEHE]

You do not have to! But I am glad you like it.

[crimeson]

I'm gonna.

[pocketing the pouch itself and taking his hand again.]

Shall we?

[eggstinction]

[squeezes his hand]

Let's!

[crimeson]

[assuming some kinda portal situation, let's goooo]

[eggstinction]

[WHOOSH]

[the door home opens to the same moment Moon left a hundred days ago: Late at night in a well-appointed office. A large three-sided desk covered in documents is by the wall. There's a lit lamp and fresh ink on the paper— someone was in the middle of work.

Besides shelves and other furniture, one of the walls has been dedicated entirely to windows. They open to a terrace overlooking the ocean.]

Welcome home!

[crimeson]

[whistles softly]

Daaaamn.

[eggstinction]

[all the furniture is beautifully crafted, but a longer look will find that as nice as everything is, it's all mis-matched. it's years of different antiques from different decades of styles, but if his bookshelf from 30 years ago and his desk from 120 years ago are both still good, why replace them?

Moon trills, laughing. The white stone walls are thick and there's no bedrooms near the Lord's office, they're not going to wake anyone up.]

Wait wait, I have not even shown you anything yet.

[crimeson]

It's still fancy! C'mon, set your stuff down and get showing me.

[eggstinction]

[sets his plant down and fetches it a fish jerky treat from a snack drawer in his desk, then hurries back to Randy to tow him towards the balcony]

You can see the fancy later. This first!
