i know the light will reach across to you one day i'll take you to my world too Indie RP Blog for [The Moon]

[terr--a]

"We wouldn’t want that, so maybe you should appear more often to cheer me up." She was practically Earth’s daughter, even though moons are supposed to be cousins. ..Is that really how it works?

"I’m becoming too soft. I think it’s the old age and certain bastards who are now invading you." Groan.

[densesatellite]

"You seem the opposite of soft, if anything..." She'd been around long enough to know the differences in his moods, but there was never a thing as too sure. "Maybe you're just thinking too hard about things! Maybe you just--need a hobby or something to cheer up! Don't you think so?"

[terr--a]

He’s back to a happy mood now that his favourite young lady is around. “No—no, everything is fine, now.” That is most definitely not a smile creeping onto his pale face.

[densesatellite]

As soon as there was a bit of a smile on his face, a much larger one appeared on hers. There went that negative notion! "You shouldn't look so upset all the time; your face could stick like that in a few more centuries."

                     "Well, not really a competition, but I already know I’m the cutest—I just wanted a second opinion." Mars gave the Moon an expectant look, obviously waiting for the ‘yes, of course!’ answer variety. "Also, if you could put it in writing that would be great." Maybe he could get a few copies and give them each to the different planets. And why stop there? Of course, he could include the moons as well. 

[densesatellite]

An opinion that sure of himself... he was quickly convincing Moon to agree from his certainty alone. She ended up nodding anyways. "But don't you have to have permissions to have something like that in writing? Like, legal stuff?" She'd be glad to put it in writing if that made him happy, but she didn't want to go to jail for it. "Maybe a voice recording would do better! I can just say it, can't I?"

[terr--a]

Bad moods suck.

[densesatellite]

That was a cross face if she'd ever seen one. "Is something the matter, Earth?"

[rubicunmars]

                       Mars waved a hand in the air, shaking his head at the concern. He supposed he shouldn’t have put so much distress in his voice, but then again this was a very important matter—to him, at least. “No, no, I just have to ask you something.” Clearing his throat, Mars put on his best winning smile—that he hoped didn’t actually turn into a grimace, smoothing down his shirt before reaching up a hand to slick back his hair. “I’m cute, right? Like, possibly the cutest planet. Right?” Look at those hopeful puppy dog eyes. 

[densesatellite]

"...Come again?" He'd said cute, hadn't he? Moon's eyes quickly scanned the large--large--man from head to toe. It was kind of difficult to come up with any rate of how 'cute' someone who stood a good few heads taller than you was. "There's a lot of planets out there, though... Are you in a competition with somebody?" The longer she could avoid the actual question, the better. That expression was kind of backing her into a corner, if anything...

[rubicunmars]

                       Mars has been thinking a lot lately (those words are sure enough signs to take cover) mostly regarding the fact that he’s really the cutest planet, physically speaking. He’s sure others have started to notice it as well, but he can’t simply bring up the topic with the planets; hurt feelings could arise and he didn’t want that to happen of course. However, Mars still needed reassurance, so when he saw a member of the technically but not quite planet family, he bounded over. “Moon! I have something very important to ask you.” 

[densesatellite]

It wasn't very often that Moon received guests. Between what seemed to be a general disliking of Earth and her, well, not knowing many people, it was usually quiet. That being said, a visit specifically for her came as a surprise. She nearly jumped at the loud voice, albeit familiar, calling her out, and she quickly turned to meet it. Of course, there weren't many around who were as loud as Mars, nor as many among those who would seek her out. "Mars--? What is it; did something happen?" She was never quite sure how to take "important" matters from him.

[ooc] breakdances slowly i should use this blog more i believe

"I suppose you could say things aren't 'well' between us." Even though the two in the past had tried to become friends, it never seemed to work out. "Or I could be honest with you, and say that I hate him."

[densesatellite]

That... wouldn't be the first time she heard that. Moon knew Earth didn't get along well with others at times, though it still made for an awkward situation.

"Ah, you too... It probably doesn't do any good to defend him, does it? Though he and I are two completely different people in the end, it's no good from me."

[densesatellite]

"Even now, talking to anyone new seems more difficult than it should be. I'd much rather prefer just tagging along after all..."

[psychoraxx]

"Has Earth been treating you well?" Sycorax suddenly asked. Even though he was obnoxious, and sometimes treated others like complete shit . . . he still found it necessary to care. "If he hasn't been, I'll kick his ass."

Or maybe it was just a reason to pick another fight with Earth.

[densesatellite]

"Oh, oh no he's been fine!" Surely he wasn't trying to be protective of her personally? Not after they were just reacquainting for the first time in so long.

"I'm sure that anything he's done, he means well. Er, probably... Are things not--well between you two?" While she knew them both, she hadn't paid any attention to their relationship with each other. Perhaps it would've been wise if she had... but how did someone look to every detail?

[densesatellite]

"It's such a shame everyone tends to leave at night."

It was, after all, as close as she got to a spotlight. Or, well, being one.

[psychoraxx]

"No, no reason at all." Sycorax replied. "Your reaction to seeing me was just a bit . . . unexpected." He said with a small grin. "It's usually the other way around." Perhaps she had forgotten how obnoxious he could be.

[densesatellite]

"Yes, I guess it's been too long to be that forward... it's alright, isn't it?

At least there hadn't been any misunderstanding. That in itself was a large enough relief. "I can't think of any reason I should be anything but. That is a good thing though."

[psychoraxx]

Sycorax went quiet the moment after Moon admitted that she was glad to see him. It shut him up. No one has ever told him something like that. She must have been lying.

"Wait, let me get this correct--did you just say you're glad to see someone else besides Earth? And you mean me?" A pause. "Are you lying?"

[densesatellite]

The question caught her off guard, enough to make the girl stop to think about it for a moment. Had she said something wrong, perhaps? She knew not everyone was on good terms with Earth, but--

"That is... correct? Oh! That I'm glad to see you, I mean. Not that I'm lying. I just," Moon stopped herself, words flying back and forth in a jumble in her mind. "Is there a reason I shouldn't be? I don't remember anything like it."

[psychoraxx]

Sycorax had been avoiding Uranus for weeks now. He decided against admitting that to the other. It wasn't important, after all. "Everything's been. . . fine, yes." He said. "And how have things been with you?"

[densesatellite]

Moon felt as if that small pause may have been enough to question, but went against it. There was no reason bringing up anything that could be negative so quickly. "Very well!"

"Things are always interesting in some way around here. Though no one's really come by in particular in very long... I'm glad to see another face besides Earth!"

[densesatellite]

"If it isn’t also Jupiter!"

"It isn’t often that I see you around here, anymore!"

[jovvis]

"That’s because you orbit the asshole Earth. I miss seeing your face, you know!"

[densesatellite]

"Oh! He isn't so bad..."

"It's a shame that keeps you from visiting any time; it's been far too long since we've seen each other, much less talked like this!"

[jovvis]

          “Oh look, it’s the moon…”

[densesatellite]

"If it isn't also Jupiter!"

"It isn't often that I see you around here, anymore!"

[psychoraxx]

"It certainly has been," Sycorax replied. "Perhaps centuries?" He questioned, not knowing exactly how long it had been since he'd seen the other. He was often times forgetful when it came to things like time, but only because he didn't care. Keeping track of time was a waste.

[densesatellite]

Moon had to give a small laugh at that; it was true, after all. It seems they were still alike in one thing. Perhaps it was a common trait around satellites? Most likely not, but it was fun to think.

"Maybe even longer. Have things been fine, over there? It's a bit hard to keep track of."
