"Everything is fine, Usagi. I'm not hurt and I'm here now." Not that she's doing much to stop the girl from hugging or kissing her. More that she's trying to comfort the princess now that she's properly crying. Though her ears do twitch whenever Usagi got too close to them and was tickling them. At one point she does press one paw to the girl's face and pats it as best she can in this position.

"You gave those kids such a good fright that I'm certain they won't try to hurt any animals from now on." She's certain that she could have handled the little brats had she needed to but for the most part they had only been picking on her but it hadn't hurt that badly. Now Luna wiggled in Usagi's hold, trying to get the girl to let her go at least a little bit.

She took a deep breath and eased up a little, but didn't let go completely. She hasn't had Luna in her arms in a year, it's going to be hard for her to let the little black cat go.

Usagi sniffled and wiped her eyes, smiling and pressing one final kiss on Luna's crescent moon.

"Has anyone explained anything to you, do you know where you are or what's going on?"

Luna shifted a bit to get more comfortable in that looser grip, to snuggle in while also turning enough so that she can watch where they might be going. It's clear that Usagi has been here a while and most likely has somewhere to live or at least somewhere she is headed to. She's going to need to know where that is if she ever left the place on her own and expected to find her way back.

"I've heard most of it explained to other new arrivals." No one worried about a black cat listening in. While she did her best to not intrude on private and intimate conversations, Luna has already gathered as much information she possibly could without having to ask for it straight out. Which meant that she certainly had quite a lot already. "I also went by the Welcome Center and managed to sneak in when someone opened the door."

As such there is a new accessory Luna is carrying about, a loose-fitting small chain is around her neck with a crescent-moon shaped crystal attached.

"Well, you're in luck because I can get you a pamphlet and head to the library. You just pick out the books you want and you can sit in my lap." While she knew Luna was very capable of turning pages on her own, if Luna wanted to pretend to be a normal kitty, Usagi would oblige. She was headed back to the house where she stayed with the girls and Helios.

"This must be your amulet," she smiled as she gently tapped the new necklace. "Would you like it on a ribbon instead?" since Luna didn't do collars. "Maybe something bright yellow," she winked. "Aaaah the girls are going to be so excited to see you! And I can show you where I work! I own my own business, Luna!"

She isn't sure just how long she's going to pretend to be a normal cat but the suggestion about going to library and sitting on Usagi's lap is fine for now. The girl has missed her and this way they can spend time together even while Luna went about finding out more about this world. Luna gazed up at Usagi fondly. "Will you be able to sit still while I read?"

A slight bob of her head that could be considered a nod. "A ribbon would be better, though it might slip off." Definitely not looking at Usagi at the choice in color. That is a very interesting spot in the road. She cleared her throat after a moment. "Who else is here?" As for the business, that does get Luna to look back at Usagi. "A business?"

Please don't say it's an arcade, Usagi. Luna doesn't know if there's enough techology to be an arcade but if there were any games - Usagi would find it.

"I'll bring a sketch pad, or find a romance novel," a land without TV and video games and movies meant Usagi was forced to expand her interest and the wheel landed on drawing and romance novels.

"The necklace could too. But I would feel more comfortable with you wearing a ribbon than a simple chain," because she wouldn't want it getting tangled or worse, now that Luna was in her arms. "Well, I came first back in June or er... well, their June not our June. Minako-chan and Rei-chan followed the month after that, then Makoto-chan, Chibiusa-chan, Helios-kun, and Setsuna-san. Makoto and Chibiusa have gone back home, though, so it's just the five of us from home plus Mabel-chan living at the house."

"Mmhmm! I'm the proud founder and head of White Rose Wedding and Party Planning Agency!" She grinned wide. "And I'm also the representative for Elios! And... Also um... I uh... got a dog."

"Does the library allow you to take things home? I wouldn't want to keep you there all day," Luna said gently. It's fine for an hour or two but surely Usagi has other things to be doing. Chances were that the feline would be pouring over books for days - weeks even depending on how much information was available. Plus then Usagi wouldn't have to continuous change the page for her all the time. Of course it would be in between all her wandering through the city.

"I'll be sure not to lose it," she promised. The crystals were important and Luna knew it. She listened as Usagi talked about who was here, who had left and the unsaid of who was never here. Usagi has been here all this time and not seen Mamoru - the girl certainly wouldn't have failed to mention it to Luna. "Who's Mabel-chan?" It was the only unfamiliar name in the list which meant it was someone who wasn't from their part of the world, at the very least.

"You always did know how to throw a party." Not exactly a business she ever thought Usagi would take up but certainly one that suited her. "What are your duties as the representive? A dog?" Luna isn't particularly afraid of dogs so long as they aren't trying to eat or bite her. Though her tail is flicking a little against the girl's stomach.

"I think so, yeah. If not we'll figure something out! We always do! And Setsuna, Helios, and Rei are all super smart and can help where I might not be able to! Oh! Let's get you a bright blue ribbon! Something to match your eyes!" she gently tapped Luna's nose. "I'll make sure you get the information you need and want, Luna!" she pressed another kiss to Luna's brow.

"Mabel-chan is a 13 year old who is staying with us. She's really sweet and about as bubbly as I am! Maybe even more so! She's reeeallly fond of glitter. But she's been staying with us for weeks now!"

At the mention of the duties she was going to respond but then blushed.

"Okay look, it's just- I hadn't had you for a year, Luna! And I mean, you've been sleeping in my bed practically every night for the past FOUR. I just... I was getting lonely and hugging a pillow at night wasn't... And I didn't feel right about getting another cat! How could any cat match up to you? But it's okay! Orion is a really good dog! He's very gentle and a puppy, he'll obey you just fine. He's going to be a really big dog too, so you can ride him when he's older!"

"There's no need to figure it out right away. I can wait a day or two." Not that Luna would be idle during that time but she can certainly get by without going to the library for a couple of days. Her duty is to look after Usagi so she could spend some time learning about the girl's business and offer any help in that area. It's clear that Usagi has missed her a great deal and it wouldn't do either of them any good for Luna to stick her nose in a book immediately after arriving. "You could always change the color of the ribbon every time I recieve a new crystal." As long as the color wasn't absolutely terrible, the Mauian didn't have a preference.

While she can see the Senshi taking in a young child, Luna is not impressed with the part where this Mabel-chan is reeeallly fond of glitter. "Please let her know I don't want to be cleaning glitter out of my fur."

Her ears turn to the sides as she listened to Usagi ramble on about the dog, obviously trying to sell the idea to her. "Calm down, Usagi. It's fine for you to have a dog. Just so long as there's nothing for me to worry about." She simply doesn't want to be a chewtoy or a snack, that's all.

"Let's start with blue! Oh, and then a nice pink! Then yellow, of course, your signature color! You've always looked beautiful in yellow!" she pressed a kiss to Luna's cheek.

"Don't worry, Luna, I won't let you get dirty. And she'll probably cuddle you like I do! Though you're sleeping with me every night, make no mistake about that. She's good about taking care of Orion. And Orion was trained to like cats, I promise. He's going to love you... And Rei-chan got Phobos and Deimos when she first arrived! For a while... Diana was here, but Artemis hasn't shown up yet."

"Whatever you want, Usagi." Luna could indulge this ribbon changing. Chances were that the ribbons would get dirty and need to be changed anyway. Hopefully not too often but she didn't spend all of her time inside.

It would be a bit of a bother to share a house with someone who didn't know about Luna but it isn't all that different from living with Usagi's family. So long as the dog was well-behaved then she could handle that as well. "I'll be with you every night." Sleeping next to the girl's head, sharing the pillow with her. At least while Usagi slept alone. As for the state of her own family, it will be hard without Artemis and Luna was used to missing Diana these days. "We will just have to get by without the boys or the children." They could do it together.

Usagi merely hugged Luna closer and a tiny bit tighter, unable to let go now that Luna was in her arms again. She smiled.

"Don't worry about Mabel-chan, okay. Even if she found out you were able to talk, she's taken a lot of things in stride, okay? We'll cross that bridge when we need to, but you can still be yourself as much as you need. And we'll definitely do it together. It's kinda like the old days, yeah? Back when we first started all this together."
