Moonflower || Echoes of the Past

Day 8 of @arcana-echoes​​​ Echoes of the Past event- Familiar!  To read my other entries, click here.

She shouldn’t have stayed out past sundown. 

For her first time being out by herself for so long, she was sure being cocky. The city looked so different at night. Was she going the right way? This street sort of looked familiar in the lamplight. Maybe she should turn back...

Turning slightly to her right, Elvira saw a small side street. Maybe this was the one? She was trying to find her way back to her shop without the aid of anyone, not that there was much of anyone around this late (nor would she have willingly asked someone for help). Asra had gone on a trip and left Elvira alone to run the shop. He said it was to “help her regain her independence”, or something. She was sure her friend was full of it, but he left without much of an objection from her. She could take care of herself, she was sure of it.

But, considering the fact that she was currently wandering through Vesuvia searching for her home, she may have been a little too confident in her own abilities. Asra had offered to help her map out her way back home once more before he left, but she refused. She was sure regretting that decision now. The dark haired woman walked a few feet more before deciding to turn back to the side street she was peering down earlier. It was dark and she was wary to go down the street alone, but what choice did she have? Taking in a deep breath, she straightened her spine and walked down the cobblestone road. 

After a few moments of walking, she heard a shuffling and what sounded like animal claws against the cobblestone. Elvira froze, looking around to see what could have possibly made the noise. But, she could only make out the vague shapes of things in the darkness of the alleyway. She took in another deep breath and held out her hand. Imagine holding a ball of light, just like Asra told you.... A weak ball of light formed in her outstretched palm. It illuminated only about a foot of space to either side of her, but it was better than nothing. Emboldened by having a bit more visibility in the darkness, she continued forward. 

The scratching sound followed her down the alleyway as she carefully made her way down to the other side. As she got closer to the building at the end of the walkway, she noticed a glint on it in the moonlight. It had a dark stained wooden door with a crescent moon shaped window, and Elvira recognized it as the shop’s back door. She sighed in relief, knowing that she had finally found refuge from the darkness of the night. However, before she could take another step, a small animal scurried in front of her path, knocking into a crate that had been placed there for refuse outside of the building directly across from her in the alleyway. Elvira whipped around, her magelight shining brighter with the rush of emotions she was experiencing. In the light, she saw the creator of the sounds she had been hearing: a small, black dog, with white speckles going up its legs and chest.  

Stray dogs were not uncommon in Vesuvia. However, this dog was unlike any of the other strays she had seen on her previous trips out of the house with Asra. It was a puppy, and seemed to be hairless. The tiny thing was shivering next to the crate, looking up at the woman before them. Elvira felt a shiver go through her when her eyes met the dog’s, but she blamed the cool night air and pulled her burgundy shawl closer to her body. She shook her head to herself and extinguished her light as she turned back to her shop. Her palm pressed against the wood as she murmured the spell that cancelled the cross-me-not charm she put on the door. Another shiver ran through her as she reached for the door handle, and she was filled with the sudden thought that she was missing something.

The dark haired magician whipped back around, getting the sudden urge to look at the dog once again. When she did, her breath caught in her throat. This puppy, once feebly huddled again the wooden crate, was now sitting at attention in front of her. It was sitting in the direct line of moonlight that had been peeking out from around the corner of the building across from her. Elvira could’ve sworn that it was glowing. She crouched down to be closer to the dog and got a good look at it. 

“Was that you?” She squinted at the dog in the low light. “Were you the one that made me feel like that?” Momentarily, she felt silly for talking to a street dog. But, to her surprise, the dog barked back as if responding to her question.

“... Did you just... answer me?”

The dog barked again and Elvira was taken aback. Why did she know that these two barks were affirmatives? She supposed that Asra could interact with his snake, Faust. Maybe this was kind of the same thing. Did all magicians have this ability?

“So... You’re a stray, huh?” 

Another affirmative bark.

“Yeah, yeah... I guess I am, too, in a way.” She held a hand out to the dog. It sniffed her hand warily, and Elvira was filled with a very quick flash of unease. “Don’t worry, I don’t bite. Although, I probably should be worried that you do.”

The dog barked again at her and she snorted. “No, I suppose you couldn’t do much damage with those little teeth.” She caught herself mid-chuckle, realizing that she was very much having a conversation with a street dog as if she knew what it was saying.

“Okay.... Maybe I’m missing Asra more than I thought...” She shook her head and stood up, turning once again to go to the door. But, she found her feet stuck to the ground. She didn’t want to move. Her brain was telling her feet that they should take a step forward, but they didn’t budge. There was something about this dog that she couldn’t place, but she knew that something about it was calling out to her. Elvira turned back around to find the dog still sitting there.

“You know, I don’t think I could take you in. I’m not sure if I even like dogs, and I certainly don’t know how to take care of one.”

A few more barks.

“I mean, I’ve met street dogs like you. But I’ve never had one. It couldn’t possibly work out. We’re too different, you and I. It could never work.” 

A whimper.

“Well... you’re right... It is a little cool out here. And I’m sure you’re a little lonely.”

Another whimper.

“Yeah... Me too.” She crouched back down and scratched behind the dog’s ears. It seemed to really like that, for Elvira felt a warmth spread through her. “Fine... I guess I could let you come in for the night. Maybe until Asra gets back. I’m sure he’d know what to do with you.” The dog happily wagged its tail and barked, turning around in a little circle. Elvira picked the dog up, squinting at it from all angles. “You don’t look like you have pests or anything.”

The dog barked at her again and she clicked her tongue. “Yeah, I know you don’t have hair. You can still get bugs... Right?” 

A huff.

“I don’t know, either. You do need a bath, though. You smell like garbage.” Tail wagging and tongue panting, the dog was clearly happy to be in her presence. “Look, I don’t know what kind of life you’re gonna have with me... But I’ll do the best I can. You got a name?”

Another huff.

“Hm, no... I guess you wouldn’t, since you’re a stray and all.” She stood up, dog in her arms and looked up at the moon. It was full and bright, and the sight of it filled her with a feeling she couldn’t quite place. “How about I call you... Luna?” The dog barked at her, and she knew it was an affirmative one. Elvira smiled for what it seemed like the first time in a long time. “Great. I like it too. Now, c’mon. Let’s get you into a bath.” She walked toward the shop once more and felt another chill go down her spine. This felt right, like it was meant to be. She picked up the dog once again and looked it in the eyes.

“Luna, I think this is going to be the start of a beautiful friendship.”

The dog barked once again and licked her face. She laughed and continued into the shop. That night, after a nice warm bath and a meal of skinless chicken, Luna and Elvira fell asleep next to each other on the bed. Little did they know that every night that followed would end in the same way.

sticky shoes.

junmyeon wasn't exactly prince charming or anything, but he liked to be a gentleman when and where he could. of course, the scene he found himself in was a little... a lottle ridiculous, but that wasn’t stopping him, and neither was luna’s protests. “noona please, just eat your lunch. i’ve got this.” he offers her one of his painfully charming, dashing smiles (and maybe he was milking it a little to catch her off guard so she’d be distracted) before continuing to clean off the bottom of her shoe. 

it was a nice shoe! it looked a little? expensive, but then again he wasn’t the best judge of merchandise pricing just by glancing at it so he could be dead wrong. either way, they were nice shoes, and he didn’t want that icky food crusting into the grooves of the sole. “it’s no big deal, i’m just being a good hoobae~” it could’ve been somewhat questionable, him cleaning her shoe like this, but his innocent mind hadn’t considered that. he was just being nice.
