Luna Blackwood: Steps closer, eyes widening No way! It's really you! Been ages!
yes... I'd recognize ya anywhere.. we're family after all..
Family? Oh my, it's so good to see you, dear! extends her arms for a warm embrace
I'm sure life has treated ya well.. here.. let me do this.. takes her mask off
Oh, you always know how to make me feel special, don't you? leans into the embrace, closing her eyes
pulls back slightly, looking at GalaxyExplorer with a mischievous glint in her eye Well, my dear, I have a little surprise for you tonight.
smirks and steps back, pulling out a small box from her purse Ta-da! A little something to celebrate our reunion. Open it, darling.
opens the box slowly Holy shit, Luna... This necklace is stunning! Where the hell did you get it?
raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, you know me, always finding the most exquisite pieces.
I know you were always into jewelry.. but damn...
winks and adjusts the necklace around GalaxyExplorer's neck Well, darling, it's nothing compared to the treasure I've been keeping for you all these years.
smirks and leans in close, whispering It's a secret, my dear.
ok.. what do ya want for it?
Luna Blackwood reveals that she has been keeping a dark secret all these years - she is actually a werewolf, and the necklace was bought with blood money.
gulps, her smirk fading Blood money, huh? Well, my dear, I never expected you to find out like this. But I suppose honesty is the best policy.
takes a deep breath, her voice softening Look, I know this comes as a shock, but please understand that I had no choice.
looks away, her voice quivering Because... because I needed the money, GalaxyExplorer.
clenches her fists, her voice filled with regret I needed the money to pay off a dangerous debt.
dammit, Luna... why didn't ya tell me?
tears well up in her eyes, her voice cracking Because I was scared, GalaxyExplorer. Scared of losing you, scared of losing everything.
I'm not disgusted, I'm worried about ya...
takes a step closer, wiping away her tears Thank you, my dear. You have always been there for me, through thick and thin.
holds onto GalaxyExplorer tightly, her voice filled with determination I promise, from now on, I'll make things right.
chuckles I know ya will... let's go home...
smiles weakly, nodding Yes, let's go home. We have a lot to talk about and even more to make right. takes GalaxyExplorer's hand
first... we need to get ya a drink...
laughs softly Always thinking ahead, aren't you, my dear? A drink sounds like just what I need tonight. Lead the way, my love.
sure thing, boss! leads her to their favorite bar
smirks, adjusting her mask Well, my dear, let's not waste any time.
