Well, that's good. [ She thinks. She hopes. It always seems like such a delicate and precarious balance between the two of them. Luna knows how careful she has to be with them; something like a blood ritual with Moon Presence was... a bolder move. She would like to be optimistic about it all, but maybe she should just... continue to keep an eye on things. It does seem to be going quite well for now, though. And that's a huge relief for her.
They just... need to try and work to stop this from happening again. Luna doesn't even know how it quickly got so out of hand. It was if Peter simply slipped away from her without her realising. There was nothing out of the usual for him, nothing outside of his normal spells that come from demonic possession and then — well, what he turned into.
But Paimon's not considering that, and she blinks with quiet surprise. We will help you heal, and we will take care of you, now. She wasn't the one who needed a blood ritual, they were. She might have had her own Corruption to deal with, but they were in a far worse state that she was. But the demon's telling her that she's the one who'll be looked after now — not just by one or the other, but both. And it's another thing that gently stuns her: they agree on something.
Luna utters a soft breath, head dipping to one side. There's a little swell of pride within her, a small smile at her lips. And while she doesn't say anything, she carefully reaches up with one hand to gently cup his cheek. It's a brief gesture, a single stroke of her thumb in both thanks and pride of him. ]
Oh, alright. We can do that. [ She's not entirely sure what it is he needs to talk about. But it's been a good while since they've even had a chance to. She pulls her hand away and straightens up, ready to hear whatever it is he wants to talk about with her.
But the question isn't what she's been expecting; she's quite ready for Paimon to dive straight into things but instead he's... offering to make her... tea. She sits wide-eyed, a little taken aback for a moment. But it's actually quite a kind offer? ]
... Oh. That— that would be quite nice. [ Luna, no. ] But— please be careful with the stove when you're heating the water, alright?
[ Can we have no injuries during this tea-making, please. ]
