🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑 [ Moon Seance ]

Who: Moon Gang + idk other haters ig-
What: Moon Seance
When: Full Moon (May 23rd)
Where: Yeah-
Warnings: none immediately, but will be in post titles as they appear


[ Perhaps one might notice that Mizuki's started taking public notes in the netbook. He's dedicated a couple of pages to the cycles of the moon, and which moon was appearing in the sky that night, before the moon even rises. On the backside of the page he tries everyday to dot a black page with spots that are probably supposed to be stars. It doesn't seem random, but it's also hard to make out what it might be for initially.

The morning before the full moon, however, Mizuki circles the date. It's not as if it's a rare event or anything like that, happening roughly once a month and all that, but he does want to try to make a note of this. In the journal, on a new page, he writes: ]


It's a good night to contact the moon goddess, if that's something we still wanted to try! I can get some things to set us up. I recommend napping so you can be awake for later tonight!

[ No information beyond that, like a meeting place or anything like that, though it's likely Mizuki doesn't actually know where a good place to meet is. He doesn't know anything about trying to talk to gods that aren't already in your head, after all.

But he'll be outside by the well when night falls all the same, and he'll patiently wait for everyone to gather, too. ]

And that is answer enough. Ourania closes her eyes because otherwise the hurt she feels on his behalf will be visible, and she's not sure Pure Vanilla can handle that right now.

"I witnessed all at the festivities, you know. I know what you've asked of him. I can't approve of this self-sacrifice. I won't be like that wretch of a sun- I won't thrive off of your pain and heartache."

And in turn, Pure Vanilla closes his again. For one, looking too long through the Truth is like trying to stare right into the Sun. Sure, it's pretty and stuff, but after a while your brain begins to melt behind your eyes.

Her words do make him laugh a little (ignore the hint of the sob behind them), and he offers a watery smile.

"I thank you for your wisdom, My Lady. I am sure Dark Cacao Cookie would thank you as well, were he able to hear all this. Before our time is over, may I ask one more thing? How do we seal the rift?"

She will not ignore anything, thank you, but she will gently kiss his forehead.

"I know not the details of the ritual the little lion prepared, that his children carried out. But I know that it can be reversed. He, and his kin, are the key if you wish to reverse it. Otherwise, you will need healing magic and cosmic magic native to this world intertwined, on a greater level than you may expect."

Ah. Hm. When was the last time he'd received a mother's affection in a forehead kiss. The hair stroking had almost tilted him but the forehead kiss sends him right over the edge.

He is not crying in any way, shape, or form. If you see otherwise, you need your eyes checked. He will punch you if you say anything, Josh. He may be Jesus but so help him.

Little Lion... who... him. Kin. Family.

Oh.

Give him a second to compose himself and discreetly wipe at his eyes, before nodding, frowning. "Aldric. Thank you again, My Lady. I fear I have taken up so much of your time, you should rest. We," look, he's using we. Not I. All of them, "will figure something out."

No, she won't. He's getting a hug not unlike how he's done for others as of late- her touch is cool and soothing, and she will not apologize for babying him a little.

"I trust that you will."

And like a child and not the old man he is, he slumps a little against her. Lets himself, for once, be given the care and affection and absolute love he shows others. It's not a question of him allowing her to baby him, it's a question of him allowing himself to receive the babying.

And he does, for a time, tears whisking down his face unimpeded and unacknowledged, before smiling and hugging her in return, a tight - but careful mind of the injury - hug and pulls away.

"Please rest, My Lady."
